CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET
CHICAGO, March s-Wheat was raised
from the low price established at the close
yesterday, right at the opening to-day,
the incentive coming from. an advance
of l-2d. at Liverpool but the cary
strength was not much more than held
subsequently. The initial firmneSS gave
forth promise of better things but as

Cudahy ct al. confirmed the belief that
Yesterdays rise was artificially made for
