GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Wheat Lost On Early Advance and
Closed Lower.

Chicago, Feb. 17.-There was consider
able steadiness in wheat during the first
half hours trading. Early Liverpool and
New York quotations showed a marked
advance while there was a good deal OF
nervousness among local traders. growing
out of the sudden death of President
Faure of France and the contingencies
which might follow. May opened sc high
er at 1914 G733s and as there was a dispo-
Sition to even up there was a good bust
ness transacted at the top figure. The
news and conditions, however, finally be-
gan to favor the bear side and early
buyers lost confidence and withdrew their
support. Liverpool lost part of its early
advance and indications at stock taking
centers pointed toward an increase il
the visible supply. Taking the latter mat
tiers. in connection with a considerable
weakness DEVELOPED by corn, the wheat
market began to lose ground. May was
forced down 10 FPS. closing at 72as buyers.
Heavy receipts with an absence OF ship
ping demand and accommodating stocks. for
which there were no buyers outside of the
spectators. oppressed corn. May closed
&c lower.
Heavy selling by professionals weak
ened oats. The close was sc lower.
A too plentiful supply of hogs was the
source OF some bearishness in provisions
early. but near the close a slight re-
action set in The close is shade lower
all around
