All the other mnikpti followed the downwnnl trnnd of wheat. Corn niul oats closed Mn lower each , nnd pork , liir.l nml ribs oil showed material declines. Wheat nvcraRC'l wr-nkcr , nnd the trade vns Black : few of the lilft operators were Oolnc mueli , and what they rtM was on both sides of the market. The Roncral fccllpK of uncertainty ca'ised many to lenvo the market entirely alone. It wan 13 n'A Intents and purpoBru a wnltlns market. Old operators were Inclined to look for a ROOU break to follow the Into advance , wli'Ie ' nany framed to feel that the conditions wurranled a continued upturn.

May sold off to fiJ'.ic ' , and closed at that lltntrc Corn opened firm. In sympathy with the Btartlnfr strength oH wheat , tind weakened later , when thn latter turned weak. The business don * was only moderate. The opening price for May was unchanged at SO'.ic. Not much was disposed of t that , whfeh proved to be the highest price for the dav. Fluctuations were very sllt'ht all day , May finally closing at from 23Jc to ' Oats slow nnd Inclined to weakness with whfat , but there was nnly a sllpht de cline. May rpened ' , te higher at 21VJc , and Bold off to SOTsC , closing at that price. Provisions' acted In a very contrary and mvsterlotis manner. Armour & Co. were said to have been the heavy sellers whose operations were the principal source of the apparent weakness.

There were 1,671 hirnl , as against SCO yesterday and 1,001 on Tuesday of last week , The market , as whole , was lit quite satisfactory shape , Irom the seller's point of view. Afler two days of very light receipts the packers all wanted killing cattle , and the buyers were out early looking for them. For the first time In a long whllo they did not wait for salesmen to Invite them to look at their cattle , but they were around asking to be shown something. The ntnikct , as a whole , was fairly active at Btrong yester day's prices , and" the offerings were mostly taken early In the forenoon. Whllo there were no very choice beeves to put a good top on the market , there were quite a good many very handy cattle. The most of them sold Inside the range , $3.GOi3.)5. ! ) Hutchers' rtock was In fair supply , about twenty-live .loads of cows and heifers being on sale. The market opened strong , the buyers wanting cattle to drive nt once , nnd they paid good prices. As the more urgent orders were filled the market cased off and closed lower. Yesterday's sharp advance was pretty much nil lost at the last and the buyers wore talking about getting back to last week's prices. The market was rea sonably active until near the close , nnd the offerings were practically all taken. The fresh receipts of stockers nnd feeders were not very large and there were not many cattle In the hands of speculators , so that the total offerings were far from being large. The demand from the country was fair nnd the feeling on the market was somewhat Improved. Values were. In fact , strong , and the receivers of desirable cattle had little trouble in disposing of their hold- lnfr .

The market opened with good light and mixed hetra In active demand on the part of rpeculu- tors nnd buyers for the fresh meat trade. Kuch hoga as nulled brought prices that were strong to Go higher , that Is , J4.1W4.20 , The demand on the part of the early buyers was limited , ami their orders were teen filled , With that the market came to a sudden standstill. The pack ers did not want any hogs unless they could get them at J4.0004.03 , and an salesmen Weie not willing to clone out at any euch llsurcu , trading stopped altncwt entirely. The buyers had the advantage of u lower provision market and lower hog markets at other points , and they reemed determined to hold out for a corresponding spending concession here. The forenoon clipped away with very llttlo belnir dona nnlde from the early tnornlne trading" In light hogs. Represen tative sules ; No. AV. Sh , Pr. No. Av. Sh.
