CHICAGO MARKETS.


Chicago Jan. 3f.--Wheat was affected at
the opening very much as It was at the
same time on the day before by heavy re-
ceipts at Minneapolis and Duluth, while
higher quotations from Liverpool at the
opening helped the price for May. starting
Il from e5ss TO e5Ssc. as compared with 65S4
d657sc at the close yesterday. After a
decline TO s5Ssc. the price began TO recover
and rose in very short time to e6l4c, and
that was as high as II got on the previous
days bulge. The advance was chiefly due
TO tha bullishness of the wheat situation
as set forth by the Liverpool Corn Trade
News. which estimates the wants OF the
importing countries for the whole season
at 4os, ooo, 900 bushels, against available sup
plies of 23s. 10000 bushels, and says that
the deficiency OF e. 900. 90 bushels can only
be made good by reducing the amount
afioat TO Its lowest possible limit and using
every available bushel in Russia and Amer
lea. The trading was active for about an
hour and half. 1t auieted down for an
hour for want OF anything further OF an
exciting character. The price had worked
down around 654sc and did not for some
time get away from between that and 65s. c.
Later the market began to feel the weigh.
OF the sales which had been made around

a detected appearance. Half an hour 1ter
