LOCAL GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
Cold Weather Checking Trade, and
Prices as a Rule Firm.

Prices as a Hule FIRM.
The Unprecedented cold and disagreeable
weather for early May has more or less inter
fered with nearly all lines of trade. 1t is very
seldom that three days of as dull trade as that
of the past few days has been known. But with
this prices continue strong in tone. Provisions
and staple groceries are all steady and strong in
tone as to prices. Leather dealers are doing
a fair business, but the market is unsettled.
With the seed merchants it is not quite as active.
Produce men report receipts large and prices
steady, with a fair Eastern demand. Fruits of
the season are in light supply and prices firm.
Choice Strawberries from Tennessee are now Of
fered. Irish (old potatoes are in large supply
and selling very cheap, but new potatoes are in
light supply, small and selling at high figures.
Wholesale dry goods houses are trying to push
business by offering bargains on good bills, but
the weather is against them.

WHEAT QUIET AND LOW
AFTER NARROW FLUCTUATIONS
MARKET CLOsED Al 1-sC LOSS.
LifeIessness IN Characteristic of All
err and Fork "a TriHe Lower.

CHICAGO. May 3.-The wheat pit to-day
pond. The price rose and fell within mar
row range and wound up the day with a 1sc
loss. The dizziness of trade initiated
against the price more than anything else.
The same lifelessness was characteristic of
the other markets. Corn closed a shade
higher, oats a shade lower. Provisions
were irregular at 212c higher to TIC lower.
Wheat was weak at the opening in the
absence of demand, the weaker cables and
the clearing weather in the Northwest,
which permits the continuance of seeding.
The w marketings were large,
$50 cars against 479 cars a year ago. The
advices from California were also more
favorable, and above all trade was exceed
ingly duh and narrow. July started at 700
70Ac, compared with Saturdays closing
price of 705sc. A brief rally to 7012 ensued
on covering by shorts, but no other sup
port was given and the market again sunk
to roc.
The Orange Judd Farmer report of wheat
condition throughout the. country indicated
winter wheat as verging on a sensationally
low condition, but the spring wheat area
promising to exceed by 1885, coo acres that
of the previous season. 1t was considered,
however, as on the whole bullish and some
recovery followed it's presentation. The
visible supply was also a favorable pre-
sentiment for the bulls. The reduction for
the week was 1,7S9, 600 bu, compared with
2,427, 900 blu on the similar date a year ago.
The market had in the meantime ebbed to
$3.50 for July. That was the low point and
that reached, a gradual recovery took
place, and by l O'Clock was selling at N04c.
Then another little drop, the market clos
ing quietly at U12c.
Corn was very dull, but for the most
part firm. 1t opened easy on the more raw
orable weather west, but improved slightly
OH the visible decrease, which amounted
to 4,7S.OCO blu. The narrowness of business
is shown by the fluctuations which were
within a sc range. Exports were 500, 600 bu.
July opened unchanged at Csc, sold to 25lsc
and closed at 251sc.
In oats local longs ~endeavored to break
the market by free offerings, and TO some
extent they succeeded, but the frmness OF
wheat and the wet weather prevented any
material loss. July opened a shade higher
at 175AM17%c. declined to 1l12c and was Of
fered at 171a@17sc at the close. Exports
We're SO, 900 bu.
Provisions were very dull. Prices had a
downward tendency during the morning,
owing to the heavy run of hogs. Later
pork and ribs were supported and recoV-
cred the early loss, but lard remained
where it had sunk. At the close July pork
was PIC higher at $S.6212, July lard about
nc lower at $4,000 212 and July ribs I'M
changed at $3.50.
