The Dsy's Transactions on the Board Of
Trade


CHICAGO, March 1.-The opening in
wheat was rather unsatisfactory. Trading
at no time during the session was heavy,
and at the opening was very light andspir-
itless the reasons for the cautiousness Of
the traders being felt throughout the day.
Traders could not reconcile their absolute
Indifference of foreign markets and shown
In the absence Of any demand to the ex-
traordinary lightness of worlds shipments
and other figures bearing upon the worlds
supply of breadstuffs. The effect was espe-
cially apparent during the first half hour,
the short selling of the cautious ones de-
pressing the price NC in that time. May
opened at from 74ss to 74% compared with
Saturdays closing price of 74A, and sank
down to 741s before Ii showed any recupera-
tive powers. From the latter price 1t began
its first feeble efforts at climbing. but gain
ed vigor as 1t progressed, and was bringing
74% about an hour and half from the start.
The market had no end of statistical sup
port. Liverpool was II and sd higher That
market did not hold all its opening advance
Chicago receipts were 25 cars against 1W
a year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth re-
ported 260 cars compared with 500 last year.
Late in the day the visible supply state
ment was completed, showing decrease
of AIS. 900 bushels for the week, making the
total In sight now 43, lo7 900 bushels against
GA .0S9, 900 bushels at this date last year. That
was the occasion of the first rise to 74M.
The quantity or wheat and flour on ocean
pdssd&t ueCItdStu i,iW,VW DuSntiS cOfn-
pared with an increase of 1.120,000 bushels
the same week last year, and the English
visible decreased 1000 bushels The most
surprising figures. however, were those Of
the exports from the surplus producing
countries in Europe. 1t will be recollected
that American shipments from both coasts
last week were 1372,000. and as the total
from all countries was only $50 900 bus hels
II Is seen that this country supplied more
than one-half OF the whole. Russia quota
was only $4,000 bushels. That impaired
little additional vigor to the market on its
being announced. the price of May reach
ing 15l1. slight reaction followed the
posting OF the closing cables. showing some
decline. the market closing. however, at

feeling in wheat was the chief factor Oats

cial interest developed Firmness was the
