Chicago Grain! and Provisions. Chicago, March 14. Possibilities of gov ernment Interference with any activity against lower prlcea for food brought about fresh breaks today In the corn, maiket. The close wast nervous at the same as yesterday's finish to 2 cents lower, with May $1.35 to $1.I6H, and July $1.29 Vs to $L29. Oats closed on changed to Ho decline, and provisions down 37o to $1.00. ' Corn started sharply lower, and through out the day there was heavy selling on all upturns. Knowledge that a meeting of packers - with representatives of the food administration was In session here, and that hog prices were being discussed gave special point to reports that there had been authoritative Intimations given show ing it apparently would ba well for bull ish traders to slow down. The fact that soma, plants f a leading corn Industry had closed or had reduced their output tended further to depress values. Transient strength, however, resulted from an advanve In Argentine freight rates. Definite word of a prospective radical cut in hog prices did not become public until after the corn market had closed. Oats chiefly refloated the action of corn. Provisions were governed by the bear ish atand ascribed to the food admlnlstra tlon.' Oosslp was current, however, that semi-monthly stocks would show Impor tant decreases.

Bradstreet'f Trade Review. - New York, March" 14, Bradstreet's to morrow will say: While inclement weather snd bad roads are a bar to seasonal trade expansion and price uncertainties still hold back buying and Industrial operations, the week s re port is. one of moderate, but- definite progressVtoward better things. Favorable features aro the continued strength ot the securities markets) the settlement of ship yard strikes and the resumption of con siderable textile-machinery In New Eng land, the result being a reduction In the number of unemployed. Rain or snow has had a favoring or hurtful effect ac rordlnaiT as different aections and prod ucts are considered. Winter wheat, south, west and-nn the Pacific coast has been helped, but southern advices aro that rain and the soaked state of the soil has retarded Jabbing trad and put farmers much behind on preparations for plant ing. While prospects of the chief bread grain are flattering in the west, southwest, far west, southern advices, except In Texas and Tenneseeer are less cheerful. Weekly bank-clearings. $6,296,886,000.
