GRAIN PITS
WERE QUIET
May Wheat Unchanged and
May Corn Was Higher.
PROVISIONS WERE STRONG
Low Cables and Favorable
Weather Brought Out Sellers.

Chicago. Feb. 25.-Trading in the grain
pits was rather quiet today and after
an easier opening the close was firm.
May wheat being unchanged. May corn
i4assc higher and oats up l.dSc. Pro-
visions ruled strong. the May products
closing 5a7izc to 17I.c higher.
Lower cables and favorable weather
brought out considerable selling in the
wheat pit at the start and q good many
longs sold out. while commission houses
had sales for short accounts. MAY Open

advanced on a good demand from COM
mission houses. said TO acting for st.
Louis people selling up TO U&sc A lit
tie weakness in other grains caused some
selling by locals and a reaction TO &C
followed. The light offerings late in the
uay was the main cause for the fairly
firm feeling which pervaded the pit at
the close and final figures on May were
unchanged. at 01sQ771.c. Bradstreet's
report of the worlds visible supply was
a bearish influence, and claimed the
worlds stock had increased l.3o0O.0 900
bushels last week, compared with a de-
crease a year ago of 2,c4coo bushels
Clearances of wheat and -four were equal
to 124.000 bushels. Primary receipts We're
So. 90 bushels, against $1,000 bushels a
year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth re-
ported receipts of 90 cars. which. with
local receipts OF 25 cars-none OF contract
grade-made total receipts for the three
points of q cars, against 2l6 cars last
week and 562 cars year ago.
Corn met an active demand from pro-
vision people and following a slight dip
at the outset the market turned strong.
The early weakness was on lower cables
and in sympathy with the decline in
wheat Commission houses were the best
buyers and there was no pressure to sell.
the limited offerings being quickly .lo-
sorbed Unsettued weather was a bull
factor. as was the poor grading The
close was strong and l4Gssc higher. at
asa 1850 for May, which ranged between
z5i2c and 46i.c. Local receipts were Coo
ears with none of contract grade.
The early weakness in corn and wheat
affected oats and there was heavy sell
ing by commission houses. Later. on
the advance in other grains, the market |
became firmer, which feeling was helped |
materially by the small receipts. The |
close was strong. with May i.Gssc higher !
at 3Ji9c after selling between S47sc and |
35Q3512c. Local receipts were lSi cars.
Provisions opened steady. in the fact OF !
lower prices for hogs at the yards, |
fair demand from brokers being the sup |
porting feature The market was strong |
throughout the day on good buying by |
packers and the close was at a higher |
range OF prices. May pork was up hlsc. |
