THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. Morning Wheat Prices Conflned Within Narrow Limits. THE CORN VISIBLE A Gcod Amount of Strength Charace terizes Dealings in the Provision Pit—Cattle Trading Rather Slow—Quotations. INCREASES. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. Cnicaco, Feb, 6.—[Special Telegram to the Bee.)—In the wheat pit, with trifling excep- tions, prices were held all morning within a limit of }{c. At the lower edge of this limit Hutchinson bought wheat for sale. At the upper edge he sold what was wanted. At a point lge above this limit there were abund- ant orders to sell, and at an equal distance below there were abundant orders to buy. But the market was never permitted to touch them. The result was dullness and small business. May wheat opened at £23c and never advanced beyond that price. Once only 82 was touched, but barely touched, and with this exception the price held between 52'5c and 823c throughout the ses- sion and closed at 10'clock at 82l @slc. For March wheat 765%c was asked at the opening, and that was the nominal close at 1 o'clock. At the highest point 853{c wasbid for that delivery. The war scare appears to have died out for the present. The visible supply statement of a decrease of 670,000 ‘bushels was encouragement to the bulls, as 8 considerably more than had been ex- B d and it seemed to cause some buying, ut not enough, however, to break over the barriers mentioned above. An increase of 679,000 bushels in visible corn was considerably more than had been expected, but the greatest extent of weak- ness which could possibly be attributed to hat fact was but lye. The entire range of prices during the session, with the exception of the first sales, was embraced in that figure. Trading was light. Hutchinson was buying corn moderately and 80 were William Dunn & Co. and wartz & Dupee. Boyd, Paxton & Boyd were selling. May corn_opened at 527§ @b3c and _gradually declined to 52%{c, ad- vanced to 527%¢c, fell to 525%(c and closed at 1 o'clock at 535¢@h23¢c. March corn was nom- inally 48'¢c,” The receipts of corn here wei 208 cars and 450 cars are expected to-morrow There was but_littie interest in the specu- lative oats market and there were but two prices. May oats opened at sold also at 827¢@38c and closed at the last named price at 10o'clock. June oats sold at 331{c. In )\)rnvi!flnns considerable strength char- acterized the market. Fluctuations in the different lines were confined to a rather mod- erate range and the prices obtained averaged a little higher than those of Saturday. On rork an advance was established of 5 and on ard of 2!¢@50e. Short ribs were unchanged at the close. Trading was spaswodic and largely on local account. ArTERNOON SEssioN—Wheat lower under free selling and a general absence of buyers; Muay opened at 82} ¢ and fell to £13{c, closing at about Si3ge. Corn lower; May opened at 528¢c and fell to 52¢, closing at 52c bid. Oats weak and about e lower. Pork was 10¢ lower; May closed at $14.471¢@14.50. Lard declined 214 @5c, closing at for February, for March, $7.8115@7.90 for May and for June. Short ribs were 21¢c low February closed at $7.55, March at #7. and May at £7.72!4. - CHICAGO LIVE STOCK. Cnicaco, Feb. 6.—[Special Telegram to Trade was rather slow at the start. yers scemed to await orders, and it was late in the forenoon before any great amount of business was transacted,but after the terms of the market were settled between buyers and sellers there was a large number of cattle sold—in fact, about all ‘went over the scales, and prices underwent little or no change as compared with the close last week. But few Texans were oun sale, hence there was a fair demand for na- tive butchers’ stock that would suit the city shop trade. Canning stock isas low as at any time. Dealers are_anticipating a good trade in stockers and feeders for the coming weelk, yet transactions to- day were few and unimportant.

In most cases the opening prices were the lowest of the day and the closing figures were the best, or within a small fraction of the best. Of thirty active stocks, comparing to-day’s close with Saturday’s close, about half were }@3g per cent lower and the bal- ance }§(@)¢ per cent higher. There was no marked movement either way. It was a dull and profitless day to all concerned. The market opened feverish, with evidently a wvery nervous feeling all around the room, which was flooded with stories of strikes and rate cutting at home and war talk in Europe. Private cables announced that Bismarck's address advocated peace, and this tended to strengthen foreign markets, and when quo- tations arrived they did show some increased firmness. Traders hammered stocks without much success. London advices show that the market for securities has been subjected to a strain, but the latest phase of the feel- ing isone of more confidence, with some rally in prices. The total sales were 159,000 shares. GoVERNMENTS—Government bonds dull but steady. YESTERDAY'S ernm\m . 8, 45 reglstered 1204 C. & N.

As is usual on Monday the receipts were light.
