Chicago. ILL.,, March 5-Wheat had
another dahl day and the fluctuations
were even narrower than yesterday,
the extreme range being only S-Sc.
There was an undercurront of firmness,
however and while the ncws was rath-
er scarce there was nothing very bear
iRh, but on the contrary II was of n
nature to help the price. Wheat opened
llrm and practically unchanged ut
from Sc 7-SQ67 l-Sc for May. but trad
ing was on Il very limited scale then
and for two hours thereafter nuctuat-
ing between G6 3-ic and e. l-Sc, with
the bulk OF the business during that
time at GO 5-Sc, The opening strength
was due to the English cables, which
were steady and firm, the first quota
ton quoting Liverpool Il turn dcarcr,
Northwestern deliveries of wheat were
smaller than q week ago. In addition
TO this the weather Is generally looked
upon as very trying for wheat and
crop damage reports are numerous, The
SPECTATORS We're very cautious, how
ever, and there was little urgency In
the selling, but while the buying was
not especially active Il was sufficient
TO absorb tho flowing lots and they
failed to deprcss the market materially.
BESIDES 100000 bushels of wheat sold to
20 to Buffalo, which was one OF the
elements of the early strength n round
lot of northern was reported 10 have
been sold for immediate shipment and
that finally lifted an extremely slug
gish market out of the rut and closed
It firm at G7 1-Sc. the highest point of
the days fuctuation.
Corn was almost lifoless and what
little trading there was was within
1-Sc margin.
