tliu eloso to 5"i ; for May and at fllo for July
early. Provisions started about steady and
thoraiiKuof urlee-i huforo the inornlni ! call
was tinlto narrow.
Thuto wimu wild and unsettled market In
wheat most of the day , wllh u Kruat deal of
trading oil fo.irs and rumors , und very little-
ttUciillim wiiiKlveii to any news that had Its
origin this sldo of the Atlantic. It was a
Kuropean market vury larjjoly. Shorts al < o
had a pronilnent place In dealings. The mar
ket was so HUIity that the short Interest was
created Ir. a mlnuto and was ellmlnatod thu
next. A long line was taken on onu moment
and liquidated the next. It was u grout mar
ket for the scalpers , but was s. ) wicked Inlts
chants that It w.is muro luuk limit scnso with
the trader who got In and sot out without
beln j nluckcil. There were very liberal re
ceipt * In tlio northwest , with ftaears ) at Min
neapolis and Duluth for forty-eight hours.

bushels , and country clovator stocks decreased -
creased .lll.OOJ buihols for the wook. The vis-

cruasu of l.i",000 bushels tigulnst a decrease the

this was Ignored by the trade as unimportant.
Atlantic ports cleared .M.CM'J bushels of wheat ,
nnd a grout line of Hour. ( WKJ ( ) paokngos.
Cables were closely watched. Liverpool
public cables carlv quoted wheat ! id
to yd dearer , whllo urlvato cables called
Liverpool Id up. London was Is up on cargoes
and Is : td up on Hour. Drum fc Co. had a 1'arls
cable Riving that market oxclted. Cloning
cables were equally strong , The hcavlcst-und
most persistent buying of the day was by
White * Co. Mitchell hoiunt early , but sold
later. I'oolo also bought and sold heavily.
There was a irroat arr.iy of big sellers when-
ovur the market took n bulgo. George Smith ,
McCormlok & Co. , ICennett. Hopkins , Dunn ,
Orr and many others sold at every good op
portunity , The autlon of tlu market , as near
as It could bo traced , was as follows : May
opened around il.CJ , with sales at once at
H.l''U undfl.riti , and a quick Jump to $1.1.1.
Thoio was a quick drop to 11.14 , with sales as
low as Jl.lHJi , and u second rally took
It to 4'.15. lleforo U o'clock the prleo

The Into showing of strou sth was on closing

the best , point reached at SI.I2U. This was
2Wo over the oloso on Saturday. May touched
fl.H'/i Just before the eloso , and the lust
trades woio around $1.14. April was quoted
with May attl.rJiS , to 81.LI to ll.Ki.'a at the
close. The trade moved Into July very
strongly the last halt hour , giving that month
a big bulge tol.l'i'S ' at the high point. De

range. May sold at'IJo toTIHJo to Tie to "li c ,

was llttlo pressure In the corn trade all day.
The best strenglh of tlioday , aside from the
little bulge early , was during the last half

K'onneU Hopkins & Co. toH. A McWhoiter
There Is sea teoly a member of the board uf irado
of any prominence who lias not prodli-tcd lower
prices today If helms expressed any opinion
at all. 1ml the market opened suhslantlally at
the bottom and elosed at the top. Olllulally
Julv wheat closed at ll.lS'i , hut It sold at
Jl.lS'i before the pit was elosml. Kverybody
Is amazed at. the strregth of the market , even
those who have been predicting $1.2.1 and II..VJ
wheat , und noliodv can satisfactorily account
for It. Wo havu nominally In store and alloat
hero eight million bushels. butthemarUetaots
as If not onu quarter of It Is available for
speculative purposes' und this Is possibly true.
I.astern exporters In hedging against their
sales to foreigners have probably tied
up millions of It and It will not
be for sale again If foreigners actually take
the wheat they are reported to have engaged
at seaboard. Hence to all Intents anil pur
poses our stock of wheat has suddenly dropped
fioni H.OJO.OOO to atiout luwo.i.oo biiihuH
anil professional trader * , falling to loallzo
the change , are operating as It the entlro
8.000.000 wore available. This Is the only the
ory on which wu can account for thu remarkable -
able action of the markot. The advance has
practically chucked the export business at the
seaboard and we do nut believe phenomenal
buoyancy can bo long malulalneil. Prices
may ultlmaloly go much higher , but a niiito-
rlai deelluo wo think next In order. Corn and
oats liuvo been falriy slronf , though not at all
buoyant , and at times have manifested con
siderable weakness. Hecelver.s liuvo freely
supplied the demand on all rallies and appar
ently would not bo avurso to lower prices.
The situation l.s. still strong anil under tholr
control. Provisions continue to bo neglected
In favor of other markets. They look woak.
1'rlccs appear to bo sustnlncd only by the bull
feeling In grain. Packers were selling more
freely today than for some tlmo past and It
closed tame.

THE UKK , ] The week opened on the stock o.\-
ehango with oulto a promising outlook for
tlio leading railway shares , all of which were
liberally traded In at advancing figures.
The Improvement recorded was equal to
nearly a point , nnd was of u general
character. Kcallzatlons were heavy on Iho
way up. and before Iho end of the first half
hour the sales on this account caused a halt. In
the rising miirkot and some stocks reacted tea

The specialties participated In the
cheerful temper of the more prominent Issues
und werodeulton u larger settle. Some of the
Industrials displayed considerable animation
at the outset/ and all were strong at
'Improved quotations. American sugar ro-
llnlng led oir with tin advance of 1.J !
to U2U , but tills stock afterward reacted to
l'l4 ' tind Is now within u small fraction of the
top notch. The preferred , wlillo not heavily
dealt In , rose M to inijaiillM. National Cordage
Common was In active request and moved up

spicuous place In the trading , but the Im
provement In It amounted to only ? , thu price
rallying to.vi , following which there was u 10-

the most prominent features of the market.

general news of this forenoon favois a more
active und stronger stock market today. The
feeling on Sunday was as favorable us the
bright weather , ami there was a bullish senti
ment In the air. The favorites to buy seemed
to bo St. Paul , Hook Island , Missouri I'aclllc ,
Chicago Has Trust and "Q. " The brokers say
that Keene Is and has been thu main spring In
the cordage movement and It will continue to
advance. A lot of the sugar bulls have
switched over Into Chicago ( Jus Trust , and in
siders say it will go too. " ) probably In thirty
davs. rorolirn houses here have been buying
Wubash preferred , and advUIni ; tholr custom
ers to pick up some of this stock at the present
very low iirlces.
The buying of blocks today has been moro
general and of u moro pronounced olmruclor
than ut any previous advance. There were
no weak spols. Even Northern I'uelllc , which
for two or tbreo weeks under continued sell
ing for long account have move I contrary to
the general current of the market , und to un
extenl cheeked the tendency of other stock I
to advance , r-o fur us volume of dealings
are concerned western stocks exceeded
all others with the exception of
Itoek Island , which has advanced 2 per cent ,
their prices have not cone up in proportion to
the amount of stook traded , whllo Ooluwaro ,
Laekawanna & Western and Lake Shore with
smaller dealings have each advanced 1 ! { per
cent. The movement In Lake Shore came lute
yesterday and appeared to be duo ton scar
city of stocks. Tlioro Is considerable talk that
the coal trade Is wor-Uni In
- : hotter shape , cer
tainly the companies are holding well to
gether and show no Indication of loss. The
LehlKh has not obeyed the orders of tlio Inter
state commission which were given In the
notice sent to reduce ooal rates on the 20th.
The Htreot Is full of points to buy Clrc-igo ( ins
trust for an advance and trailers aio all mak
ing u test of their accuracy. It Js also said u
prominent mukorof prlvllozes who had sold a
largo quantity of calls at M bus been buying
