FIRMNESS AT LIVERPOOL KEEPS
MARKET FROM CONTINUING
DOWNWARD SWING.

Chicago, March 3.-Wheat prices
took an upward swing today, influenced
by the failure Of the Liverpool market
to reflect the declines which took place
yesterday in America. The bulls were
also encouraged by reports tending TO
disprove assertions that domestic
growers had been boarding reserves.
Besides, there were advices OF unfaV-
orable weather in Argentina. The open
ing, which varied from l to ave higher,
was followed by some further gains
and then a moderate setback.
The close was weak but Il to &c net
