Show CHICAGO GRAIN Chicago, 111., Jan. 30. Wheat eased off today owing to the absence of any sign that cold weather was Injuring the winter crop. Larger world shipments ship-ments acted also against the bulls. The defeat of proposed changes in the Canadinn tariff seemed to have little if any influence on the market. Opening prices varied from 1-Sc decline de-cline to a shade advance. After hardening a trifle, quotations underwent under-went a moderate setback all around. Prospects of continued saving of feed tended to weaken corn. Prices opened a shade off to 1-8 (g)l-4c up and then showed a disposition disposi-tion to sag. Oats gave way with other grain. First sales of provisions ranged from last night's level to an advance of 12 l-2c but tho gains, failed to hold. Sugar. New York, N. -Y:. Jan. 30. Sugar Raw, firm.
