ToDAY's CHICAGO PRICES.
CHICAGO. February 24.-Owinp
cn1eny to an unexpected advance in
Liverpool quotations. the wheat mar
ket here averaged a little higher TO-
day during the early dealings. Some
attention was also given to reports
| that crop conditions for domestic
winter wheat were far from promise
ing. Besides, bulls put more or less
emphasis on the view that current
prices had discounted everything
bearish. The opening. which ranged
from Is to sc higher, with May,
1.1sH to 1.1sas and July Las to
LA. y, was followed by moderate
reaction and then something of a
rally.
Corn and oats were easy as q re-
suit of liberal receipts Of corn. After
! opening - off to AaAc C higher May,
74as to 74A, the corn market under
\ went a slight general sag
| Oats started nc lower to shade
advance, May %, and later tended
downward on all deliveries.
| Provisions reflected weakness of
hog values.
