reports of the massing of Greek troops on the
frontier. The Transvaal news also dis
quieting. Except for a sharp fall in Greek
and Turkish securities, however. prices mere
ly dropped because of the absence of business.
The close was steady. Consols were 112. Bar
gold was in better demand at IT'S esd with
symptoms of French inquiry Copper was
lower and Kaff1rs were weak. Except Lake
Shore and Illinois Central, Americans were
lower in sympathy with the other markets.
Opinions about a change in the bank rate Of
discount to be fixed tomorrow are evenly di-
vided. The best quarters, perhaps expect no
change. The Paris bourse was fat. The
Turkish securities were heavily sold there.
The Berlin market was dull.

the market rallied again on reports of new ex-

that the crop of that state had been damaged
to the extent OF SO per cent, and gave the

Is at present In Mexico, and has been for

as contradictory, but We give the above as a
sample, which proves clearly that II is NOT
safe to be governed by these reports till some
thlng DEFINITE is known. The statistical no.
sltion Of wheat is strong enough to warrant
higher prices than now maintain before har-
vest without killing the crop of 1897 Private
cables advised that the continental demand
for cargoes was larger this morning than for
some weeks past. If this be true Liverpool
will feel relieved and more buoyant market
will result.
st. Louis was again the leader in values
today, reasserting great damage to crops in
Ohio. Missouri and the Southwest. New York
advised of twenty loads taken early for ex-
port. Another advice from New York said
that cable bids were numerous, but all under

TURN TO THE EUROPEAN
SITUATION.
SHARP DROP IN CoNSoLS,
WITH BETTER PRICES AT LIVER
POOL, STARTED THE MARKET
OFF STRONG.
CORN AND OATS EQUALLY FIRM.
Provisions on the Contrary Took a
Small Turn Down and Closed
at a Loss.

CHICAGO, March 1.-THE sudden warlike
turn to the European political situation took
hold of the wheat market today and advanced
the price of the May option 12c per blu. Corn
and oats were equally firm, advancing about
sc each. Provisions took a small down turn
and closed 712@2Oc lower.
In wheat, all the usual news affecting the
market was subserved at the opening to the
decidedly ominous situation in Greece. Eng
lish consols had dropped 4-16 and New York
stocks opened lower and wheat futures at
Liverpool were Id per GENITAL higher. On ac-
count of this, May wheat opened at from
74A@D743sc, as against 1885 at the close yes
terday After some nervous scalpers had
covered war began to look less imminent to
the crowd, and the wheat so impulsyely
bought at the start was put out again. In
about thirty minutes the price Of May had
declined to 1880.
Chicago receipts were only eight cars,
against Is a year ago. Minneapolis and Du-
luth received 231 cars, compared with 300
Wednesday a week ago. and Alb the cor
responding day Of the previous year. New
York wired that there were numerous bids
there from the United Kingdom for spot
wheat but at prices quite a little below
starting rates. private Liverpool cable
gram remarked that there was a good con-
tinental demand for cargoes a1oat. That
probably the most substantial encourage
ment to buying of wheat that came in with
the first batch Of dispatches. Buying com
menced again. and more hoisted May
to 743sc, for trade was exceedingly light, and
a little realizing by scalpers caused it to
drop again to 74c. During the last hour the
market rather nervous, but kept within
a narrow range. At the close May was
bringing 741sc.
Corn was strong all day. There was not
much speculation, but the strength in wheat
and light local receipts with the wet weather,
indicating smaller arrivals made the market
firm, and shorts were good buyers. Exports
were very large amounting to 1,156 bu.
May opened 1sc higher at 2412c, advanced to
24%c and closed at that price. Oats ruled
firm under a very good business. The mar
ket was helped both by the wet weather and
the strength of wheat and corn.
Many Of those who sold yesterday bought
back today, the result being a substantial
change all around May opened Ac higher at
171sc and advanced to 17A@173sc, where it
closed. In provisions the best prices of the
day made at the opening, when the
small run of hogs had caused a good ad-
vance. The opportunity to realize handsome
profits at once taken advantage of, how
ever, the result being a rapid decline. At
the close May pork was zoe lower at $S.27l3
May lard 712c lower at $4.25 and May ribs
