CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET.
CHICAGO March i2-At one time TO,
DAY wheat was within fraction OF being

! from the outside, shortly before the close
or an onslaught OF short sellers. with
much realizing going on at the same

The governments placing the farm re-.
serve al 100000 was primarily the Jus
tihcation Of the advance. but Bradstreet's
report OF decrease in the worlds visit
bic supply OF l,934,0O0 bushels was n Sc
condary motive. The &c OF appreciation
| was added between the close last Night
| and the opening. so that the usual &C.
compartment OF excitement and agitation
was missing. The Daily Trade Bulletin
criticised the governments estimate on
wheat stlll invisible claiming that from
| 100000 bushels 10 i05.O00000 would be
more proper. This. no doubt tempered
the ardOr Of spectators, giving rise, as
IL did, TO doubts as 20 the Agricultural
Departments accuracy.
Gables were uniformly firm. Liverpool

shipments for the week were 100000
bushels. The American exports added

The Withdrawals from store were 1870
bushels, ana $3.50 bushels were cleared
from Atlantic ports.

from that quarter Prices did not again
reach the point where they began, now
ever and the close was quite tame The
receipts were 324 cars, and iASl2 BUSH

bles were ikdld higher The export
clearances were III. S2 bushels. Brad
