Chlcngo. Feb. 29. Logan ft Bryan advise:
The whest market la 2 to 2,k cents lower.
It waa ease of llouldatloli and the cashing
of atopa and evening up of the scattered trado
throughout the commission houses. It waa due
after tbe advance of laat week. The foreign
markets show healtancv. and lesa activity.. Tba
world's shipments were again very large. The
amount on passage Increased 8,300,000 bushels,

4nat the Liverpool market waa steadied soma'
wnst by the strike m Argentine, 'mere is, wa
think, still an unusual abort Interest In the
market and there may be aoine further liquida
tion. We look for a scalping market.
Corn About Unchanged.
Corn prlcea closed about unchanged. Ther
was some weakneea-early on 'the break In wheat
hut the market showa aupport by further good
buying. The trading Indicates, aa heretofore,
that prominent local lntereat ara aratping the
market on the long side by buying on tbe soft
a pots. There Is no Improvement in the casn
situation. Itecelpts are fair but the demand
la very moderate, with the off gradea still Bell

Oats Ware Rather Steady,
It a rather steady market In osts on
tbe liberal commisaloii house business. There
wsa nothing In the way of large trade notice
able. Stock of coi,trct oata aeem to bs In

Pork closed about 75 cents per barrcL lower
and tbe lard and ribs lo to 15 cents lower.
There was a much better break during tbe day
but tbe market reacted sharply. It was a case
of liquidation by an overbought market. We
atlll think that tha acattered outalde Interest la
Heavily long and that further pressure from
this source is quite likely.

New York. Feb. 20. Henta says: Although
fb coffee cables from Havre and Hamburg to
day went better than expected, they only
caused tbla market to open about 15 poloia
higher. The outside buying power was limited
aud thia encouraged the beers to depress the
market. Tbe present Braail crop promises to
be under ll.00O.0ial bags and the neit all) Im
supposed to be still larger, conseipientlr. If
12.000,000 bag should be considered probable
