Grain

Chicago, Ill.,, Feb. 9.--While the grain
markets for the week show an advance
OF about one cent over Saturdays clos
ing, the trading las not been OF such
character as to attract very much
attention. or to disclose any clear ten
deucy as to prices in the near future.
, The lrst two days of the week
were of a dull or depressing nature,
later boosted up by light receipts and
exceedingly stormy weather. both home
and abroad. Wheat advanced about
l 1-2c, corn about &c and oats about
&c per buslal.
The activity was greatest in corn,
caused principally by the uneasiness
OF shorts who did not feel very safe
with large lines on che short Side,
while the stocks of contract corn are
so light, after a few days of activity
about the middle of the week. Prices
declined, closing at about one cent adj
vance over one week ago.
Foreign markets have responded or
rather perhaps, led In the advance,
to the close OF the week. The decline
yesterday and to-day " probably due
to anticipated larger primary receipts
when the weather becomes favorable
for handling.
PrOvisions--The advance during the
week in hog products was quite sharp.
Exports were quite liberal with quite
a noted improvement In domestic de-
mand, but the advance of the week
was all lost In the last two days. oc-
casiuned by large selling by same Of
the leading packers and the anticlpa-
ton Of large run Of hogs closing weak.

Ancient ronbs.

The excavations which have just
been brought to conclusion in the
isle OF Salamis have resulted in the
discovery of a hundred ancient
tombs, lying in five parallel rows
Most OF them are oblong and quad
rangular in shape. Another discov-
cry is that of a large cemetery. the
first yet found with Mycenian char
acteristics. The sepulchers. which
are very small and narrow, are con-
structed of unhewn stones. Fifty
antique vases of the Mycenian epoch
and in good state of preservation
have also been found, together with
a number of objects in bronze and
gold, including rings, buckles, spin
dies and other things.
