CHICAGO MARKE FITS.
Produce.

Chicago Feb. 23.-All the firmness
which characterized Mondays wheat mar
ket had apparently deserted the pit at
the opening of trading to-day. The start
ing price for May ranged all the way
from 81 .06h down to 81 .05A, as compared
with Mondays closing price of 81 .06A,
while July. in which the most trading
was done throughout the session, opened
at from 9l5sc to 91ssc a decline of 4mlc.
May touched 81 .05 before il was sufficient
ly supported to bring about a recovery.
Commission houses were the best sellers
at the opening, brokers for Letter being
credited with some OF tho offerings of
May. r.
The opening weakness was due appar-
entity to the decline at Liverpool. That
market was from 7sm1Md lower, and Lon
don also showed weakness. News which
followed though of mixed character,
favored the bulls a whole, and for n
time The market took on some appear
ance of strength. Covering by shorts
started in II moderate way shortly after
the opening and prices gradually worked
back, May advancing to 81 .G6 and July TO
921sc.
Indian advices reported the crop pros
poets In the central provinces as favora-
BILE, but this was ceunteraeted by private
cablegrams from Argentine reducing the
estimates on the exportable wheat sur
Plus or that country To Zi,U0D,hou bushels.
Additional strength was lent TO July by
moderate support from the Letter inter-
ests. Trading at no time. however, was
very heavy in either option. The fear of
Letters influence over the market was
shown by many traders leaving the wheat
| pit for the coarser grain markets. Buying
was started on the Bradstreet visible sup
ply report which showed a decrease of
365 600 bushels. This was a surprise as
/ the trade had been led to expect Il heavy
| increase. and prices for n time nearly
| got 10 the former level. Later in the day.
! however, the market became quite weak
1 on further declines in the English mar
lxets. Letter brokers had In the meantime
! stopped buying and July tumbled rapidly,
/ July got down to Ole and May to 81 %. but
reacted again before the close on cover
ing. May closed at s1.06 and July al
] 91Ac.
Corn was moderately active. May
| closed 1sc lower.
Oats were active and unsettled. May
closed steady and shade higher.
Provisions were fairly active and ifreg-
ular. Pork was very weak throughout
but lard and ribs We're fairly strong. Al

lard &c higher and May ribs unchanged.
