Rtnre Grain and Provisions.

CHICAGO, Feb 26.-Under the influence Of
large Argentine shipments and lower English
cables extreme weakness pervaded the wheat
pit at the opening. The market appeared TO
advices from foreign markets served as an
excuse for general proft-taking Opening
prices We're rather erratic. Initial sales OF
May were made at 81 05q1 07; high. 81 0I
low 81 O4as; close. 81 047k; a decline Of 12c
to PIC from last nights closing. For time
July delivery touched 95Bc there were large
buying orders The crowd took the fact as
a hint that the firmness of wheat was per-
haps no more than flash in the pan The
demand seemed to be as urgent as it had been
at any time during the present bull campaign
81 OF and July TO 9s14c. The market turned
weak again during the latter part of the day
Open selling of both May and July by the
leading longs started prices on the downward
grade. Moderately bearish reports OF the con-
dition of the winter wheat brought out some
selling while limitations OF an increased
movement Of grain added to the depression
The selling became general and prices rapidly
declined May dropped TO 81 04as and July
went back to 96c Covering by shorts caused
some recovery but the close was weak with
May at 81 04Ts July closing at 96Hsc.
Lower cables caused weakness IN corn at
the start May opened u to ssq&c lower
at 5615d57c. closing at $3.50. July closed &c
lower at 55%ac
The oats market was a sympathetic one
May closing 3sG9sc lower at 1850 July closed
&c lower at 42lsc.
Provisions extremely nervous under
the leadership of May pork There was heavy
selling by big houses early in the day. with
commission houses taking the offers. May
pork closed 27I5c lower lard closed 715c lower
and ribs were off a shade.
The leading futures ranged as follows:
Articles Open. High. Low. Close.

Hav and FeedStnfS.

Hay is still weak owing to the rains and the
accumulated supplies mentioned yesterday. but
with clearer weather and the falling OF in
receipts dealers expect a better market in a
few days. II will take days under the
most favorable circumstances to clear out the
railroad yards. and until this is accomplished
the market will be soft. 1t is the general
opinion that the present easiness is transitory.
There is no change in Feedstuffs.
