CHICAGO. March 5.-The strength IN
wheat. caused early today by higher
cables. later gave way to the bearish
aspect of the movement and the lack of
demand, May closing l4Q$sc down. May

May wheat opened 1sc over Saturday
at 66066lsc. encouraged by higher cables.
Trade for few minutes was moderately
active. The export orders which had
been hoped for by reason of the firmer
foreign markets failed to materialize,
however. and the market turned easy,
giving much considera ton to the large
worlds shipments, the heavy increase on
passage and the favorable crop reports.

began selling, ant. the price tumbled.
May DECLINING to 651Zc The close was
65ssc.
The cash business was slack, which
had its effect on futures. Atlantic and
gulf port ciearances in wheat and flour
were equal to 10000 blu. New York re-
ported 10 loads taken for export. Pri-

The corn market was heavy, but closed
fairly steady. The opening was firm
with wheat and on light country offer
ings. but the market broke early, in
sympathy with the dip IN wheat. AT the
decline there was sufficient covering by
shorts to have a steadying effect They
were influenced considerably by reports
that roads in some parts of the corn belt
were In such a bad condition as to check
the movement entirely. Save for some

The provisions market was dull and
weak. There was some demand from
English houses. but ii was insufficient to
hold up the price. Outside interests as
well as local traders were sellers. The
opening was firm because of higher
prices a t the yards and receipts of hogs

were short-lived in the face Of poor de-
mand. May pork ranged from S10.6715 to

THE BEAR.

A prominent commission house. as an
tnducement for buying wheat in March,
has prepared an exhibit covering twenty
years, showing that wheat bought at the
low price in March and sold at the high
price In May has paid a profit of not less
than SIC without exception. If they
had taken the record OF either
month of the twenty years. they would
have discovered that purchases Of wheat
made at the low price In any one OF
the 240 months, with but three excep-
lions, and sold at the high price of the
following month, would have obtained
profit. The months of September, 1883,
October. 1882. and May, 1880, are the ex~
ceptional months. The only difficulty
in working this valuable discovery is to
determine when the price has touched
bottom In one month and to pin the
other. 1t is also true that in a majority
of the twenty years wheat has sold lower
in March than In February, but in ma
Sorlty Of the years 1t has sold higher in
May than In April

March is invariably aIbull month Ev-
erybody has this tip ON wheat. Every
year for the past tffrty-eight years
there has been an sadvsnce. A week ago
the prices in March, April and May for
eighteen years were given. Going back
to 1872 when the low price in March
was s1.171a. there was an advance Of 43c
from that figure. sFor the next ten years
the largest advance was In 1877, when
the price jumped from s1.2O to $1.761k.
From 1882 to 1892 the largest advance was
2Ss4c in 1890. when It sold at 76Ac to ST.
The smallest advance. during that period
was SIC in 1886. The smallest advance
for the ten preceding years was 1Oc il,
1873. From 1892 to 1892 with the excep-
ton of the Letter deal in 1928. the adj
vances were more marked, 34c in 1898,
and the high figure was S53sc. In 1897
there was an advance of s2S19c. In the
Letter year, 1885, 1t was S5c. Last year.
