 Prices closed unsettled 1s4 to 24ls

 provisions the outcome was a gain
 that varied from , cents to 22la cts.
 Ifnfavorable weather for the seeding of wheat in the northwest was more or less ignored by dealers nere. ex- cept as tending somewhat to check the force of downturns in the market Corn gave way with wheat. Oats received fair support ewing to the purchase of 600,oO0 bushels here for export The market nevertheless showed evident weakness on account of the setbacks to the value of other grain, and because of the excellent crop outlook for oats.
 Lard advanced today to the highest price of the season. Ii was said 3.000.00 pounds had been disposed of for export. Other provisions rose. too,
 helped by higher quotations on hogs.
