CHICAGO , III. , .Tan. S8. A fair volume of
business was ilonn In wheat today. Tlio openIng -
Ing was lower , but Unit proved to bo about the
bottom price of the day. Thercnttor , with ono
or two breaks tlio market was strong and itio
close was nr-nr tlio lop and at an advance of
Ho compared with that of yesterday. Tlio
lower opening was duo to the receipts of
weaker cables , n bearish summiiry of the win
ter whoit situation by the Cincinnati I'rlco
Current , which mild tlmt the condition of the
plant had not dotorlorated during the past
nook , nnil to the paslflo tone of the Chilian
dispatches In the morning papers. May opened
Mo lower at 03c , but Cutler , Lojnn , Schwartz-
Dnpco and other largo operators began
to pick the offerings and the murkot hardened.
Cutler's purchases were thought to bo for
I'urdrldgc , and us ho had quite a following his
buying caused others to fall In and there was
\ slow but gradual Improvement. The news
of the liberal evport business at Now York ,
where 813,0001)11. ) of wheat was cleared ycslor-
day , with reported engagements for 000,000
bn. . put a little more life Into the niiirkot , as
it began to look as though foreigners were
willing to time ttiu wheat nt present figures.
About the s'imo time unexpected buttery
decided Btreiutli begun to show Itself In thu
corn , irnts and provision pits , which imparted
GOIIIO ndditlonal strength to wheat. Early
short Rollers begun to take buck their wheat
n ml there was : i good deal of firmness
displayed. May finally touched from Hie to
tlc. ) | At this point a good deal of the wheat
I'urdrlilgo had taken early utilise and under
bctran tocomoout and pi ices worufoicod HIT
somi1. May reaching Illc , Hatlior active
buying of cash who.it by foreigners was then
reported at the seaboard , tliou.h they WITH
said to bo selling for future delivery. Thn
strength In corn caused a sudden rally. The
price uent toll"ie ! and closed atUIc.
Corn was more active and decidedly higher.
May started nt about thu closing price ycstor-
day , but there was very llltlo for sale , and
with good covering by shorts and
Improved shipping demand and the
free export inotomcnt , there was a gradual
upward movement. On the advance a good
many operators from the wheat pit , who wire
hsnvlly short , came In again , llovden & Co. ,
Unrllett-rr.izlerunrtothcrwcll known friends
of corn did .1 good deal of buying and helped
alone the advance. It Is mild there has been
very little corn cribbed this year , and as this
Is usually the chief source of supply for May.
sluirlB began to fuel uneasy. The facts , too.
that It Is belli ? exported at the r.ito of 11,01)0,000
bu. to 4o oooo bn. par week , mid the stocks
srentoadlly decreasing , and that scarcely - '
per cent of the weekly arrivals are contract ,
were all strong factors. For some days
It him been noticed that the Ctidahy
Faclc'ng compiny and the Wo.iro Com
mission vomimny have been stohdy und
liberal buyers ; their purchases for the week
have been estimated all the way from 3,000,000
to 4.000,0 0 bu. MM V opened at We , advanced

Oat , were strong In sympathy with corn , the
increasing demands from shfouers and free
covering by shorts. An ndvjnro of IB was
scored.
Hog products were advanced and higher :
the receipts of l.'ocs wore fully tin to the ex
pectations and prices nt the yards wore from
no to lOo lower. Hut Armour , the Anglo-
American company and packers gcuer.illy
were good buyers and the snorts made it rush
to cover. There were spoils of temporary
weakness , but the general tendency w.is up
ward anil the close shows an advance of 2e !
In pork , lHo In lard and from 15c to IT'.Je In

Mi.v.NKAroi.iR , Minn. , Jan , 28. The North
western Miller savs : The mills lut week
ground the smallest amount of Hour that they
litivo inudo In anv week fllneo beptembcr.
There wus a docroBio of 4.ri.45.i libls , as com
pared with the week before , most of It res it It-
InK from the Idleness of throe mills of ono
company. .The week's production wus I37.01K )
bills , lor Ihocnrro3pondlne time In 1891 141-
ilOObbls. were mutio , and In I80J , 117,740 bbls.
The mills have done much heavier work this
winter than a year aua
In tlm manufacturlnir. situation there iv
very little chungo from lust week , Ono com
pany , as noted , still Kavs , three of Its flvo mills
are Idle , while the output of the other he-ivy
concerns Is much restricted by the lack of
watur power. There \\oro thirteen mills
running Wednesday , KrlndtiiR at the rate of
about. 2J.UOO barrels per twenty-four hours
Hut the avcr.icn dally run U likely to bo los.
' woof the smaller mills urn expected to shut
down toward Saturday , and they will reman !
Idle three or four weeks to permit Improve
ment to tlio retail trade.
There seems to have been some Improve
ment in the Hour trade for the week hack , nnd
the restricted production has , perhaps bt-un
sold. At thosamo tlniothero Is H coon deal of
complaint by most of the millers about dull
t rail o ami also that Hour bought a while b.iek
Is not ordered out promptly. The best demand
mand still comes from domestic markets ,
though. In some quarters It Is allowed that
.sales are directed at very low prices. There
appears lobe IncroaslliK Inquiry from abroad ,
but prices In thu main uro below the view of
millers.

In strength. It Is generally conceded that
very llttlo corn bus boon cribbed , as the price
wus too high eurly In the season , and
fanners huvo boun unwilling to sell
at the decline. During the freight blockade
shippers weio compelled to soil futures to

cllne In dccun freights and the reduced steaks

demand und the purchases by shippers to

adds no permanent strength , us tlio latter will

Near the close there was a ulinrp rally of
about 1C on rumors that 70'.000 bushels had
been worked In Now York for
export.Ve nro advised that the
report Is unfounded. Torn nnd oils without
liny apparent chnngo In condlt ons huvo sud
denly developed prent strength , Thesomnr-
kots have been oversold and tins Is respond ?
bio for the sharp advance. As tioretoforo we
believe corn and oats to bo good nropcrty and
strongly ndvlso their purchase. L'hoy
are relatively cheap and there Is
every Indlcution that the outlook Is
that they will show n good advance soon. The
strength which wo have boon predicting for
weeks In provisions seems td have come to
stay. Hears hammer prices down from time
to time but they generally pay moro money to
got their stufT hack. If traders will avoid
buying on the sharp bulges they will probably
flnd It profitable scalping on the long side.

there wore marked advances scored , the gen

during the greater portion of thu day dis

though developing u strong temper toward
the close. The bears made frequent raids on
the list , and the stocks which were subject to
their attacks were the most uctlons a rule.
The attempts to gut prices down , however ,
met with very llttlo success , and that of a
tcmporaty character only , prices rallying at
once from any pressure. On the whnfo there
was a strong market. Special attention was
