CHICAGO, February 24.-Moderate
SetbackS in the price of wheat took
place today during the early trad
ing Persistent selling in small lots
was a feature, and it was contended
that the market had shown no pro-
portionate reaction yet from the re-
cent rapid advance. Reports OF mois-
ture in the southwest and fore
casts or more were partly offset by
comparative firmness of quotations at
Liverpool The opening here, "hicn
ranged from 7s decline to =
advance. with May l45a e1,aa TO l4i ana no
July l25 to 1.25 Z, were followed by
a general sag, and then by slight
rallies.

with wheat. After opening unchanged

corn market kept near to the initial
figures. :,
Oats started unchanged to 4

clined little more.

from the southwest more optimistic.
the wheat market continued TO De
cline until near the end of the day,
then a sharp upturn took place, owing
in some degree to word of big Euro
pean acceptances of offers of wheat
from this side of the Atlantic. The
close was unsettled, IS net lower to =
advance, with May, 1.4i"s to 1.44A
and July, l.24i. to 1.2iS s..
In the later corn dealings consider
able disposition was shown toward
making sales to realize profits. but
country offerings were small ana the
market ascended quickly as soon as
pressure ceased. The close was strong,
