Chicago. Feb 9-The support which was
given to wheat yesterday by Armour b Co.
was withdrawn today. and the result can be
seen in break OF cents At the opening
there was much doubt in the minds OF tra-
ders as to the stability OF the confidence de-
veloped on yesterday, but as no important
orders came on the market, they were reRs
sured. 1t was not until prominent commits
sion house that was Identified with yester-
days buying, started in to sell,
became apparent But as the price
declined 80 at a time scalpers who had
loaded up early turned round and sold as
freely as they had previously bought. Whom
the price for May touched 62c numerous stop
orders were met with. and they helped TO
accelerate the speed with which values we're
going down A steady stream OF wheat was
poured on the market. II was each man for
himself and no quarter given shortly before
the close a slight reac ton took place which
left the net loss for the day i969iAc al
though at one time prices we're &c lower
than yesterdays close. Corn showed
remarkable steadiness in the face
OF such sharp break In wheat.
May ranged between 8lG916c. Cash corn
was in fair demand, and good supply. Oats
took to corn more than to wheat to-day,
There was but little activity In the market,
and net loss OF &c for the day was recorded
Provisions opened steady on an advance in
the prices for live hogs. When wheat broke
there was a selling pressure brought TO bear
on provisions which resulted in very mate
rial break in pork and ribs, Lard was little
irmer than the other articles, but, neverthe-
less, declined some The close showed a loss
OF 45c on May pork l0c on May lard and 22ho
on May ribs.
