CHICAGO , March 25.-Uaul lnllon of long
properly continued on the Board of Trndo
today , the threatening political .situation
dominating all other Inlluonces. Covering
of short contracts near the close caused
rallies throughout , but left declines In July
wheat of ! 4fic , 140 In May corn , J/4 t > u
In oats and 245fl"c ! In provisions , the latter
in ! V7ny pork , Clique' brokers ticcepted all
the May wheat offered und held It ut (1.01.
Wheat opened' weak nnd lower on the ex
tremely hcn.vy nhlpments from Argentine ,
that 'couhtry ' contributing 2,3CO,000 bu. dur
ing the week , compared with one-tenth of
that amourit In the same week last year.
Liverpool babies showed declines In that
market averaging ftil , part of which wus
quickly recovered. From 82'JJSJ1,4c ' nt the
Btart , July roll to 82c. und held steady at
that Ilguro for some time , rallying occaslon-
a'ly ' to > c , only to bo poundeii down again.
Chlcagu receipts were 117 c.irs , ngalnst 19
u your ago. Minneapolis and IJuluth re-
pjrted 310 curs , compared with 43 $ last year.
As the session progressed the market be
came HtlH heavier. July finally tumbling to
fiV/tc. War talk undoubtedly had much Io
ilo with the decline , which wus accompanied
iliy ho.ivy llriuldutlon. Professionals covered
from ttiu down , but the offerings more than
uatlslled them. A cablegram stating that
the potnlo crop In the United Kingdom
was the smallest slncu 1MI bad llttlo or no
effect. Sales of thirty boat loads nt the
oeabourd anil the Modern Miller report al
leging serious damage to the growing plant
In California , Nebraska , Kansas und Texas
( luring the recent cold wave started a buy
ing movement near the clcse. whloh ra lied
Iirlces u full cent. May Hold between 11.03
nnd $1.01 , closing at $1.01. July opened He
lower ut 82li < fi82V > c , sold off to iUic und
closed ut S2'MfS2Vic , sellers.
Corn shared In the general weakness , but
although lower prices prevailed , there was
n Hitlllclent number of shorls willing to take
prollts io hinder full sympathy with the
weakness In wheat , 'line receipts were only
332 cars against 150 estimated , and only 123
wns thu numberof cars predicted for to
morrow' . Thu Atlantic port clearances for
the day were 713,000 bu. . about half from
Newport News. The lucovury In wncat ne.ir
the end had a beneficial effect. May opened
J/fcc lower nt 2S3iTi 220 , sold nt 2V4W-SBC ,
und rallied to 2S',4c nt thu close.
-O.itt suffered n decline of ' , i < ( Ic for May
delivery , und WnVtc for July , on tnoder.ito
trading. Longs were the chief sellers. The
weakness In wheat nnd i-orn had a good
leal to do with the heaviness that prevailed.
No export business was done. Kxporls from
Atlantic cities were IV..OOO ' bu. The local
receipts wore 109 cars. May opened at from
2Viq to 23c , declined to 23c and c.oscd
worth 2.VBc.
Provisions were weak , nnd selling of pjrk
more especially was urgent for a long time.
Thu sle.idler feeling In iu grain markets
near the end of the setylon had somewhat
reassuring effect , und caused Iho recovery
of some ot the early decline. May pork
showed u loss of 2 < K'C n bbl. nt one time ,
nnd of 17Jic at the end. I/iril and ribs wi-ro
relatively less weak. Tlu > former lost for

was a Jlght run and the ma 11 rat of any
day since Monday , only sixty-six loads of ail
kinds being reported In the yards. The
market us a whole Old not show much
change ns compared i.vlth yesterday nnd was
without any dlstlnglushlng feature of general
Interest.
Beef Steers The offerings of fat cattle to
day were very light ana tneru vvero hardly
enough on sale to create much enthusiasm.
There was , however , a fair demand and Just
nbout steady prices were maintained on all
grades. In some cases buyers claimed that
the medium cattle con them more money
'than yesterday , but sellers generally called
It n steady market throughout. There wns
nothing very fancy on sale , but there was
one. bunch good enough to bring $ l.bO. The
market -wo * not very active , but a reason
ably early clearance mus effected.
Butchers' Stock The cow market was
decidedly 'to ' the liking of sellers. The re
ceipts were of very modest proportions while
the demand was quite active. It was Just
the combination certain to produce a good
strong market and the buyers were not long
In gathering1 In evcjythliiK offered at prices
that wera highly satisfactory to the selling
Interests. As Hhowlng what really choice
stuff -will bring 1t might bo mentioned that
one Hereford heifer , weighing over 1,70 (
pounds , brought $4.50.
Stock.iCaHle There were a few commonlsh
slock entileon sale and still fewer that
could be classed' ' ns really desirable. The
market did not * hovv nry material change
from yesterday. What there wits bold
readily and the trade , was soon over with fet
the want of more cattle to sell. Hep-
