CHICAGO MARKETS
The Days Transactions on the Board
of Trade

CHICAGO. April 27.-Wheat started out
we'll enough. Liverpool opened a shade
higher for futures which was not looked
for in view of yesterdays sharp decline
here and the first impulse of the crowd
was TO buy. They found buying so easy,
however, that the demand died out at once
and then commenced a slow but steady
decline which carried July down to 71B
before halt of any consequence occurred.
Opening sales of that option were at 1870
1875 against yesterdays close of 13HMI33s.
The weather was quite favorable for field
operations and that, perhaps, more than
anything else. induced traders to turn from
the buying to the selling side as readily
as they did. The only intermissions to
the decline were caused by scalpers taking
profits. The reactions arising from the
latter cause were slight and upon every
fresh manifestation of selling pressure
the price yielded like the balance of a
weighing scale to a heavy load. Not much
attention was paid to the statistical news.
although it was of a character to cause
weakness. even had the weather been less
favorable. Berlin reported a drop of la
marks and spot wheat at Liverpool was
Id lower, although futures were higher.
Minneapolis and Duluth received 375 car
loads compared with only 290 a week ago,
but against CAL the corresponding day of
last year. 1t was reported that a cargo
of No. hard winter wheat, So 900 900 bush
els at Green Bay, Wis, had been bought to
come to Chicago, and such Evidence of
this beng the highest market the sellers
could find, was the cause of another de-
cline after the market had rallied 15c per
bushel. About the only comfort the bulls
We're vouchsafed was the crop reports from
California which were decidedly gloomy
The market became radically weak during
the closing hour. After the decline to 71A
the market rallied to 723s, but that ad-
vance had used up all the strength of the
bulls. and at the close July was selling at
71&a711a bid. Corn was fairly firm for a
time after the opening but the fine weather
had the same weakening effect on corn as
1t had on wheat and selling grew general
as the session progressed. Oats were much
weaker than corn and with heavier trade
Provisions were heavy and prices tended
downward

THE CRULL MURDER MYSTERY.
BODY May he Disinterred To-Day for
Purposes of Identification.

The following special was received early
this morning from Wheeling. ". Va,
touching the Crull-murder mystery:
There IS absolutely nothing new in the
murder mystery at Sistersvllle. No move
has been made toward disinterring the
corpse found IN the river. and I'LL that
is done there can be no positive identifi-
cation. The officers seem 10 take but lit
tie interest in the case. There Is no
accounting for the hauling Of the body IN
the wagon till 1t was decomposed, eX-
cept on the theory that one Of the occu-
pants became insane and murdered the
other. The killing must have taken place
several days before the wagon reached
Sistersville. which would locate the scene
In the widest part of West Virginia,
where there could be no possible trouble
in disposing Of the body and removing
the blood from the wagon. If robbers
murdered both men, why did they haul
one body here and not the other? The
officers are inclined to believe that Brown
may have been connected with the kill
ing Of Crull. A strange man. answering
his description, has been seen by seve-
raj persons the past week in the interior
of this county. No one seems positive
about whether the corpse taken from the
river had lost any fingers, though ths
members of the Coroner's jury declare
that they did not notice that the hand
was crippled. The officers tonight said
the body might be dsnterred tomorrow.
when all doubt as TO whether 1t is Crull
will be set at rest.
