Chicago.

CHICAGO, Feb. 1S--Wheat started to-
day with the apparent intention of taking
dizzy slide down the scale. but a marked
decrease in the visible supply and reported
export business at New York brought
prices up with jerk, May closing Nc
higher. Corn followed wheat, finishing &c
higher for May, and May oats closed &c
higher. Provisions ended with moderate
gains.
The wheat pit at the opening was flood
ed with selling orders at Ac below Satur-
days closing prices. The latest trading on
Saturday was at 522sc for May. and at the
opening very few buyers could be found at
52Ac, and there were even more sellers
than buyers at 52lsc, so that SIC became al
most Immediately the trading price. An
anticipated decrease in the visible stocks
since week ago of only 100000 bu was
potent factor. The Northwestern receipts
at Minneapolis and Duluth were 155 car
loads more than those Of the corresponding
DAY year ago. The weather also was ia

Chicago CattIe.


CHICAGO, Feb. 18.-The effect of today's
small receipts was to give the cattle market
strong start and it maintained a firm
tone throughout Useful cattle generally
sold higher and there was no grade for
which buyers were not ready to pay last
weeks closing prices. Sales were largely
at prices below S., as but few really good
cattle were offered. Extra quality, 1900 to
165O-lb steers, however, would undoubtedly
have brought $5.40@5.5O, and possibly $3.50.
Steers sold mostly at $390Q5, and sales of
cows and bulls were largely at $2.25@3.35.
The hog market was fairly steady. Some
statesmen quoted it strong, others thought it
barely as good as on Saturday. Trade was
active at $375@4.35 for poor to prime, with
the bulk of the business at 81. 10G425 for
averages over 200 lbs and at $390Q4.05 for
lighter weights. Not many sales of heavy
hogs were at better than $425 and $4.1O was
the top for light.
The run of sheep was comparatively
light for Monday, and the run for this week
bidding fair to be much less than for last
week. There was frmer tone to the mar
ket, Notwithstanding there was a rather
limited demand. Common to prime sheep
were salable at $2.5004.25, and lambs were
quoted at IS. 25@5. 40. The quality was rather
ordinary and sales were principe Nv at So
@3.40 for sheep and at $45005. 25 for lambs.
Receipts-Cattle, 1900 head; calves, 300
head; hogs, $4,000 head; sheep, 10000 head.
Chicago Pork.
CHICAGO, Feb. 1S.-The speculative pork
market was quite nervous today. Some OF
the largest operators were free sellers,
while many other packing concerns were
free buyers. Prices were fairly sustained
but the general sentiment Of the trade is
one of uneasiness. Live hogs still continue
to arrive in large numbers and has a bad
effect. The following was the range of
price today pork:
