Chicago Board of Trade.
Future Grain and Provisions.

CHICAGO Feb 13.-The wheat pit was
affected more perhaps by the strong cash sit
uation reported from all quarters than by
any other factor. The demand principally
for the July delivery the congested condition
or the May option Offering special inducements
to the majority of traders. Wheat prices at
Liverpool and Paris were considerably higher
than yesterday and the fact that these markets
showed gains in the face of increased ship
ments from Australia and Argentina helped TO
lpstil confidence into the minds OF traders
here. May opened A@9sc to sq&c higher
at 96is Q96l2c, while July up Aqlac at
sSQSSl4c There was an early advance to
mand, but the May option held about steady
during the first hour. The leading long took
advantage of the advance in the price OF July
and handed out a considerable line Smaller
traders followed the lead and in consequence
break TO ssh occurred. The downward
ing the price down TO 95$1c. st Louis houses
covered big line OF July late in the session
and the market responded to the improved de-
mand and prices again reached the top figures.
Seue Of the advance lost proft-taking,
but the close was firm with May at 96Ac and
July at SS&c.
The corn market was strong. but the vol
ume Of BUSINESS was small owing to a lack
of offerings May closed at 54&c. July was
1aQAc up closing at 525sc.
The feature of trade in oats was the heavy
buying Of both May and July deliveries by
the leading bull houses. The close prac-
tically at the TOP. July closed at 39asc and
May at 441sc.
The provision market was weak early on
general selling due to liberal receipts of. hogs
and decline of 10c in prices at. the yards.
May pork closed 1oc lower at S14 7212, lard
