FAILURE OF GREECE TO CHICAGO, Feb. 8. (A, P.) Wheat prices turned downward yesterday, in fluenced considerably by failure of predictions that there would be lib eral export buying for Greece. The market closed unsettled, 2 1-4 to 2 3-4 net lower with March 1.54 1-2 to 1.54 3-4 and May 1.44 3-4 to 1.45. Corn last 5-8fc3-4 to 1 1-8 and oats 3-8J 1-2 to 3-4 7-8. In provisions the outcome varied from unchanged to 32c lower. It has been much talked of that Greece would be in the market for wheat enough to warrant increased confidence by bulls. Nothing, how ever, developed and bears contended that with Argentina, Australia and India pressing to supply Europe the export business from the U. 8. could no longer be depended on to main tain domestic values. Aluch was made of gossip that India had sold 1.0U0,- 000 bushels to Italy cheaper than the wheat could be obtained1 in this coun try. The only gains were at the out set. Depression was later emphasized by a huge increase of the visible sup ply of corn. Nearly 10,000,000 bushels of corn were shown to have been added to the visible supply total in the last two weeks. This, fact proved a decided weight on oats as well 03 corn. 1 ilig receipts of hogs weakened pro visions.

Feb. 8. (A. P.) The market conditions became more con solidated today by week end Incidents. Refusal of President Wilson to Inter vene in the railway wage controversy and signs of tighter money encour aged shorts. Other advices were of a doubtful tenor. Western and south western sections reported further un certainty regarding business prosjiects and more falling off of railroad tonn age. Although Saturday's returns of the local clearing house and federal re serve banks were favorable In the main, money rates held at recent firm levels. Stock Dealings Light. Dealings in stocks were light, save at the outset, when moderate steadi ness was shown. Price tendencies were reactionary. Late minimum quotations followed news of the fail ure of passage of the Winslow bill in the house. This measure was design ed to grant partial payment of claims by the railroads against the govern ment. Numerous losses of 1 to 3 points were registered at the heavy close. Sales 350,000 shares.
