CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, February 25.-Wheat today
went to the lowest price yet reached on
the crop. Buying power shrank almost
to nothing. One of the reasons was weak
ness at Liverpool, due to unexpected
large shipments destined for the United
Kingdom Besides cash demand here
the weather nearly ideal. Opening figures
were ran to y down. May started at
S95sas9A, a loss of 1saA to Aass, and fell
10 S9A aS9ss.
Country cash houses were selling corn.
Favorable weather gave the Lretext. May
opened unchanged to 1s lower, at 4Sls to
4SA, and declined to AZ.
Pit shorts were the only buyers of oats.
In consequence the tone Of the market
was quite easy. May started shade to
3Ac off at 31as to 31ssa31h, and dropped to
3lA.
Predictions Of heavy run of hogs next
week had a bearish effect on provisions.
First sales were 2A to nc lower or, with
