COMMERCIAL and FINANCIAL
Eulls Took Profits Yesterday and as a
Result Whe.t Was Easy.
BUSINESS IN CORN WAS QUITE SMALL
Tendency of Fluctuations in This Cereal
Was to Follow Those of Wheat
Oats Were Very Dull-stocks
and Bonds.

CHICAGO, March 2.-The bulls took prof
its today, and as result the wheat mar
ket was easier May closing &c lower. May
corn clos2d &C lower, May oats hc lower
and provisions at slight declines.
The weather was not so cold in the west
81 to justify the signal service cold wave
predictions of the day before. That. in
conjunction with the excellent report on
the condition of the wheat plant in Kan
sas, Missouri, Indiana and Illinois, along
with the fact that the more long-headed
of the bull spectators had unloaded again
on the shorts during yesterdays advance,
gave the market a weak opening May,
which closed yesterday ut 5i5sc, opened
with sellers at from 5isic to 5ihc, with
an immediate further shade of reduction.
That extreme weakness wore off in short
time but was again followed by de-
clining tendency until after the receipt of
the official cablegrams giving government
quotations from the continental markets
Berlin and Antwerp were each quoted
higher, and Paris from &c per bu. advance
for March to 2Sc higher for the May-Au
gust term. The quotations from Paris to
the New York exchange showed an even
greater advance. in. wheat than the. Off
The Paris cablegram to New York gave
the advance in March wheat at So and 55
and also in 70 I which is
blu. These gains at the continental mar
kets caused q recovery here to 5iSsc, which
was the trading price at the close.
The business in corn was small and of an
uninteresting local character. The tend
ency of the fluctuations was to follow
those of wheat, with the tendency of corn
rather more in favor of a decline. The
opening price for May was 45%c, and it de-
clned during the day to 44ssc, with 45c
the closing price.
Oats were very dull; TIL tone of. the
market was easier with corn, prices being
a shade lower during the entire session.
May sold between 29Ac and 29c, closing at
from 29kc to 29Ac.
Very little change can be noted in pro-
visions, but such as they are is in the
are the declines for the May deliveries:
Pork and lard; 2Rc; ribs, from 21kc to &c;
pork, same. Hog receipts, 16, 900 head, and
5000 head are estimated for Monday, with
10000 the entire run for next week.

along during the whole of the morning and
