The few scattering punches OF cows ana
heifers in sight this morning, commanded
good, firm prices and were all disposed OF
at an early hour. Cows and helfers have
been good sellers all the week, the trace
being reasonably active on most days. ana
There were no stockers or feeders OF any
consequence in sight this morning, but the
feelinG was firm. Cattle of that descrip-
ton have sold this week at the highest
point for the year, notwithstanding the
sharp break in beef cattle. This has been
due, however. entirely TO the extremely
receipts, as the demand has been very
moderate. Had there been anything ike

CHICAGO, April 3.-~Demoralization was
again in evidence in the grain pits on the

sold off to n.Osh. which was ~ below the
low point touched during Yesterdays SEN
sational slump. At the same time corn
for May delivery broke more than &C from
yesterdays high point. All of the loss in
wheat and a large share OF that in corn

at net losses of &c to 1%@iAc. Oats and
provisions closed easy.
The fresh break In wheat prices occurred
shortly efter the opening. which was very

chiefly to a sharp rally at Liverpool, fol-
lowing considerable weakness there earlier
In the dy. Taking the advance in the
English market as an indication of a
rally here. shorts plunged IN to cover on
first trades and prices were given a quick
upturn. July opened at $1.1oh to H.l1, ana
the leading commission houses, which were
the principal sellers yesterday, then re-
newed their selling operations and the
market soon became extremely weak
Early buyers switched to the selling side,

caused another rally and during the re-
mainder OF the day a much steadler feel
ing was manifested. Delay to seeding in
the northwest due to cold weather was
the chief bullIsh influence of the day.
News In general was favorable TO the
bears. Argentine shipments wore over the
estimate az 2,986,OO0 bushels for the week
and Australia shipped over 100000 bush

in were less bullish, the planting In most
states showing decided Improvement com
pared with q week or So ago. The Kan

now left 6,O92,000 acres versus 6'44,0C
