Features of the Trading and Closing
Prices ON Board of Trade.

CHICAGO, Feb. Am increase of nearly
100000 blu. for the week in the worlds
visible supply of wheat created bearish sem
timent in the wheat market here today
and caused a net loss at the close of ga
sc. Corn, oats and provisions also closed
weak.
There was a reversal of local trade con-
ditions in the wheat pit today, from the
market of the previous day. (sentiment
In the pit being bearish throughout the en-
tire day. The course of the market was
largely shaped by the leading bulls, who
sold quite freely from start to finish. The
fact that the short interest was eliminated
to a great extent by yesterdays bulge,
helped to weaken the market. A noticea-
BILE feature of today's proceedings was
the shifting over from the May delivery
condition of the former delivery. The chief
weakening factor was Bradstreets' state
ment of the worlds visible supply, which
showed an increase of 4,S00,0 900 bu. for the
ness at the opening, due to the strength
of the foreign wheat markets, but this was
soon sidestepped. The market closed weak
and only a trifle above the lowest point
OF the day, with May at s1.0Sls and July
at ST1sd98c. Clearances of wheat and flour
were equal to $4,000 blu.
The corn market developed considerable
weakness. in expectation of considerable
receipts on corn from the interior. The
market closed down %d19c, compared with
the previous close. Final quotations on
MAY were at 63aq63hc. and on July, 631sc.
Oats exhibited a weak tone during the
entire session. The market closed weak,
with prices down hGAc TO &c, with May
at 51Ac and July at 46%c.
Provisions were weak on general liquida-
ton, local packers being among the chief
sellers. The market was bearishly ar
fected by unexpectedly large stocks of pro-
visions at outside packing centers. At the
close prices were 7kq15c over. u.s.
