CHICAGO CHAIN AND PROyIsIONs.

Chicago, Jan. 19.-Heavy liquidation fol- lowing prediction of greatly increased ship ments from Argentina caused a fdli of 2c a bushel today in the price of wheat. A frac- tion of the loss was recovered. May wheat at the close being off 1h @1%c Corn was down b O Ac; oats show l, ,ss of A O $sc, and provisions are practically unchanged.
 The wheat market opened fairly steady with May unchanged to h@Ac lower at lacked animation While trades generally were bearish, feeling of uncertainty held them in check and prevented any great holders were doing nothing in the way of marketing their wheat !la6l a tendency to restrict offerings News In general was ia vorable to the bears. Receipts in the North west were considerably in excess of the to- tai for the corresponding day last week Cash markets also were very dull. Both St. Louis and Minneapolis sent messa ses telling of extremely poor demend for cash wheat Primary receipts showed Q complete reversal of form today's arrivals being 5e7,- bushels a year ago. During the first part of the session liquidation in prices were linn tied to a very narrow range. The highest point on May was reached at 1.16k. Late in the day a sharp break occurred and May sold off to 1.14A. The decline was que primarily to an announcement Uf a British statistician that this weeks shipments from Argentina would approximate Su0. 900 bush els, against 216, 900 last week The break was accompanied by heavy selling. A seo- ondary reason for the unloading here was
  crowd at Minneapolis. in throwing overheard immense lines of long wheat. Many stop loss orders were reached on the decline and tended to increase the weakness. Fart of the loss was regaiued covering by shorts. but the market closed weak with May at 115M. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 47, 800 bushels. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported receipts of 40S cars, against 314 cars last week and 357 cars Q year ago.
 Influenced by higher cables and light re. ceipts the corn market was quite firm early in the day. Later, however, the market weakened on heavy selling by a promineR holder. The break In wheat also had a de- pressing effect. May opened unchanged to hc higher at 45945b. sold off to 44% @ AK and closed at 44% 944R. Local re- ceipts were PA cars, with one of contract grade.
 Continued light receipts imparted a firm tone to the oats market at the start, but later prices sagged off trifle in sympathy with the weakness of wheat. May opened unchanged to a shade higher at 31 h 631% sold off to 30% and closed at 30A @31. Only a very limited volume of business transacted in provisions. Offerings were not large and the demand was cor. respondngly light. At the close May pork was off 2h Q5c at 12.62h lard and ribs were each unchanged at 6.S5 and 6 6.671s o 6.70 respectively.

 American selling on the basls Of 7h cents

 as much In evidence odAy .hs when 1t set in, for while we have heard reports of the
 interior weakening, such reports have proven to begthe' exception rather than the rule.
 It Is likely that the smallness of this weeks insight will make something of an impress sion upon the trade, especially in Europe, the movement promising to be smaller and smaller as we draw nearer to the end of the week, pointing to about 1000, against 24s, 900 for corresponding week of one year
 like 100000 bales larger than the previous record yield of 11,276,0 900 bales. or rather the ginners' report is expected to indicate such a growth. Nevertheless the trade has never before experienced or felt the strength of the South as it Is feeling It's financial power today, which is the result of indi-
 vidual resistance of the farmer to- the eff
 forts of spinners and their co-workers to depress prices further The cotton conven- tion to be held here next week, -eommenc- l ing sonr Tuepdays wiu be the greatest in the history 6f the Trade! Mississfppi aione prom

 much good can come of such a gathering
 of interested representatives since we have
 seen and realized their individual strength,
 which speaks well for their future plans
 when united; for in union there is strength. At about the time the convention will be in session the first bulletin of the census report on cotton ginned to Jan. 16 will probably be received, the effect of which is expected to influence the market unfavor- ably, but there will be numberless friends and plenty of material on hands to check mate any attempt to demoralize the market Contrary to expectations, spots here closed quiet and unchanged.

G. E. PIERCE s CO.'S COTTON LETTER

F. 1By Private Wire from Gibert ClayO
 New Orleans, Jah.J 1s[-zNeNls, from the
 Liverpool market this morning was unim-
 portant. The early decline was expected and although the undertone was stated to be bearsh. the market improved slightly towards the close. The net loss on options was points and on spots points with sales of IF, 900 bales.
 Initial trades in our market were at prices unchanged from yesterdays close. small advance followed on very moderate buying. Trading throughout the day was listless, but in values no particular weakness
 developed. even though the spot news was very favorable. Advices from number of interior points indicate less determination to hold cotton. while some state there Is no disposition to sell at present prices, a num- Der show fatigue and offerings are more free at a slight advance. In addition to this
 condition is a marked falling off in the urgent demand. The sustaining feature is
 the large short interest and the occasional appearance of investment buying Traders are Inclined to await the census report and lconVentioh,- and pending these events 1t is not believed that changes of moment will be observed.
