CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET.
CHICAGO. ILL. January u.-Wheat
was firm at the opening and weak at the
close with most of the days trading
taking place, at prices, about midway,
general trade was inclined to base It's
operations on large export clsarances
from both coasts for the week-3,i l,oW
bushels-and on higher cables, with the
additional circumstance OF an eighth de-
cline in British consols. 1t was a fact
worthy OF note, however, that the pro-
fessional sentiment did not favor appre-
citation in values. owing TO the dying out

Yesterday Cash wheat was steady.
The principal movement in corn prices

the close. and was In a downward direc-

change occurred, and scarcely any bus-
ness was transacted. The news contain

occasion any radical alteration in values,
and the closing weakness was due to the
decline I'm wheat at the same time.
May corn opened at q 7-Sc.. sold be-
tween % 7-Sl29l2S 1-2c.. and closed at
2s 1-2a2s 5-Sc.--1-ifl3-sc. under yesterday:
Cash corn was steady. at unchanged
prices.
A lfttle furry in oats just prior to the
close resulted in a fractional decline, but
before that time there was but very
moderate volume Of business at steady
prices. The decline was through sympathy
With the leading markets. May oats
closed 1-sc under yesterday. Trading in
cash oats was at unchanged figures.
