Chicago, March 30.—Bartlett, Frazier Carrington: European markets closed until Tuesday. Cooler weather aeerna general In the southwest. The cash situation does not warrant nuy Improvement In values, and bullish Inlluences must come from crop pros pects here or abroad. Corn has, been dull, but with a rather good undertone. Lower grades In sample market very weak and may Influence the future market somewhat. Ou any sharp break would buy. Oats were strong Thursday, largely be cause of the lightness of spot offerings. If for any reason the selling should Increase the market would go back easily. This applies to the May, particularly In which tbe trade Is narrow. What Is Jeft of this crop and the prospective one seems to be >r sale at 33c or lower. No cables. Holiday abroad. Cars about as estimated. Weather clear and cool throughout the west with very little dpltstion throughout tbe southwesi wheat belt Wheat Is more or less of a weather market and continued reports of ‘ry weather or damage In the southwest /111 be opt to advance prices. On the other hand, the cash situation Is weak. Look for moderate receipts of corn and oats, and thing that the demaud will fully K ke cars of supplies und prevent uccuiuu Boo. Receipts of hogs 7.000, on an estimate of 35,000. Market 64010c higher after uu ad- loco of 30@20c yesterday. We believe provisions u purchase on all soft spots.

Wo will either havo make serious reductions or fore* will havo to come up with their bids nre to reduce the big surplus that we have to curry over to our next crop.” An earlier opening of lake navigation Is iroinlsed uow than was thought possible nst week.
