TODAY'S CHICAGO PRICES.
CHICAGO. February 21.-Wheat
went downward in price today during
the early dealings, a. material factor
being renewal of the selling. which
for several days past has been led by
a house with eastern connections. AS
the case has usually been of late
however, purchasing broadened and
a rally ensued when the market fell
to 1.19 for May. A decline in Liver
pool quotations had some effect as ar
influence on the bear side of the
market here. The opening, which
varied from unchanged figures to y
cent lower. with May 1.19h to 1.19 *
