Chicago. Jan. AFTER some hesitation,
around the opening, wheat elected for n
downward course to-day. Most of the
news that was heard was clearly in favor
of an advance and had the crowd been
in the same humor as on Saturday, a diff
ferent story might have to be told. The
buyers of that day were, however, hun
much in evidence as a seller. May wheat
opened at 5Slzc, sold between $3.50 and
57Ac, closing at 5s12c-tsc under Saturday.
Cash wheat was firm ana nc per bushel
closed nominally 12c lower.
Corn-The weakness in wheat, an in
crease of 1042. 900 bushels in the visible
supply, an increase Of 500 900 bushels in
the amount on ocean passage and the
continuation Of the good receipts We're all
Inducements to sell corn to-day. The
could really be construed in favor of
prices so they dropped back like those Of
wheat. May corn opened at 473ic, sold be-
tween 4Sc and 47lsc. closing at the inside
ss012c under Saturday. Cash corn was
steady, closing NORMALLY weaker wnh
the futures.
Oats-Ali the other grain markets being
on, and nothing to assist oats ap. ear
ing, they likewise fell away in sympathy
The business was but a light one and the
range Of prices narrow. May oats closed
AeJ3sc lower than Saturday. Cash oats
were steady at Saturdays quotations
ProVisions-Respon to weakness in
hogs at the stock yards, product was easy
at the opening, but the demand seemed
to be greater than there were offerings
and q moderate rally soon took place
after which prices held their own fairly
well. At the close May pork was un-
changed from Saturday May lard PIC
higher and May ribs a shade higher.
Leading futures ranged as follows
Opening .Highest. Lowest. Closing.
