HEAVY ARRIVALS NOTED

Chicago, January 24-Large arrivals of grain today caused falling off in prices which was helped along by the increased protest against high cost of living. Wheat declined 1ssc to 1%c below Saturdays final figures, corn and oats falling off in less degree. Provisions experienced A 8 decided slump. the agitation against high food prices being directly reflected In s0c decline in January pork
 Wheat started on a downward grade here today, and continued downward throughout the session, checked tempor- arily at times by profit-taking purchases on the part of previous short sellers.
 The decline carried wheat to a point 1Ssc to 1Ac lower than Saturdays closing figures. The main cause seemed to be the large arrivals at the main grain cen ters, indicating that the large runs last week were not of delayed train loads The widespread agitation against high food stuffs acted as a drag on the market The northwest milling concerns were good buyers, but their efforts were intellectual to check the consistent decline. May moved from s1.11A to s1. os% and closed
 
 Saturdays final figures.
 A light demand for cash corn was coupled with larger arrivals in causing the market to sag, the decline ranging at the close 1c to 1Ac lower than Satur- days final quotations. The weakness of wheat and the general clamor against high food prices caused consumers to be chary of entering the pit
 All the futures closed at the low point of the day with May at 67c, price 1c to 1Ac lower than Saturdays. The prices in the oats pit followed the course of other grades, although the. slump in oats was not so pronounced. Liquidating sales demand for cash oats forced prices down 1zc to 7sc lower than Saturdays S final figures.
 The close was nearly al the low points with May at 4714c. loss of s4@7se, com- pared with the finish on Saturday
 The greatest excitement of the day was in the provisions pit where selling or ders were sent in by longs, taking the backbone out of the pork market and weakening other products. The basic cause of the decline was the increased public protest against high prices for food. The agitation figured heavily against buying sentiment. On the open ing sale January pork fell off 45c and later doubled this decline, closing at s20, a price soc lower than Saturdays final mar ket. May and July pork fell off to d close 75c and roc below. Lard and ribs also declined, the final figure being PIG to BOG lower. Closing prices on the May products were:
 Pork. s20. 50: lard, s11 .b71s; ribs, s11 .171k
 Leading futures ranged as follows:

Hubbard Bros. e Co.'s Letter.

New York, January 24.-(special.)-A very disappointing response from Liver pool to the advance here on Saturday greeted the trade today. We understand that the decline abroad was cue to sell ing on arbitrage account which may be true in view of the strength of our mar ket under European buying In the first hour. The ginners report was certainly bullish enough, but the market was with out support after the foreign buying was over, and 1t declined slowly under what appeared to be further outside realizing
 There is little no short interest as the statistical position looks so strong that no one looks for any decline. This makes the market a narrow one, with rapid fluctuations on small transactions following the weight of the outside or ders. At times today the market was dis couraged at the absence of spinners buy
 ing who took so much cotton last week.

During the morning shorts became very aggressive and the decline they forced caused considerable liquidation of long cotton which only increased the weakness. At the lowest the old crop months were 70 to A points under Saturdays closing and October was 30 under. Late in the day shorts took profits and this caused a partial
