 The fluctuations in prices today were slight with the tendency upward. The trading was dull and featureless and con fined for the most part to local scalpers The total sales for the day were only 61 400 bales. The receipts at the ports and the in- terior towns were comparatively small Liv- erpool rallied after an easier opening, the spot markets in this country were fairly active and firm and the exports are liberal But everything of bullish nature is off set by the intense dullness which prevails

Chicago Change.


 Chicago, Feb 3-Wheat broke off in price at the close today after having shown great strength at the opening and for an hour thereafter. The bull incentive came from This market went into a furry on the in formation, but later settled back and held steady well up to the end of the session place. Liverpool cables were up from x to Id, that advance refeeting ours of yesterday. French crop advices to the effect that the yield in that country will be a third less than last year tended to help prices for a time, but they were lost sight of when the decline set in. May wheat opened from 76c to 75Ac, sold between 161ac under yesterday. Cash wheat was steady, closing weak at i2dl2ac lower.
 Corn opened quite firm, eased off and then became steadier. Owing to the very small business transacted prices changed, but slightly. The strength of wheat early in the session did not appear to exert much influence on the corn market. The very poor grading of corn has a depressing effect on the cash market and that, in turn, af- fects the futures. The slump in wheat near the close carried corn off and the final corn opened at 24lac, declined to and closed at 24c-Ssc under yesterday. Cash corn was easy and Ac lower.
 The oats market dragged and was firm and steady in tone. The feeling was to some extent governed by that of wheat. The trading was local and without feature. The under yesterday. Cash oats were steady, closing easy with the futures.
 Provisions-The action of provisions was slow. The tone at the opening was strong with reference to the feeling in the hog market, but later there was a reversal of sentiment, early buyers turning sellers and other purchasers deserting the market. May pork closed 10c lower, May lard 2l1d5c lower, May ribs 212c lower.
