Tliocllmux of the Hurry this morning was reached with May wheat at Jl.tO and July utJI.H , tind dufonod months even moro ad vanced In proportion. August was quoted around il.10 and Hoptombjr about to under. Gallics wuro again thu ohluf ljull Inlluonco. Corn sold at the closing iirlcoof yostotdiiy for May at Wio , and oil to 7JV.

Tlioro w.is n great big HU turn In wheat early In the session today , to- ! lowed by u break of about 3c from the top price. The chief bull news of the day was In the remarkably nitons llrltlsh cables. The principal soiling was for the purpose of ro.il- Ulng and was started largely by the report , which lucked conllrin itlon , that exporters WITH ro-solling. The iietlim of the nuirkut was as violent early as on the piovlous day. May opened all the way from H.1 > toll. 10 after cloilng at fl.tit's last night. The extreme point was Ic over any prloo ma'lo previously on the croii. July lit tlm same mnmunt sold at ll.iiJ : ! and tl.ll. againclosing tlto g.ip between the two Inadliu months to ' 'c. September and August prices were np < | illtn as sharply , l-'rotn thu nigh po nts the duollno w.is the flist In the nature of a reaction , such as occurred a do/en times yesterday. Then the re port th.it . expoiters were re-selling caused fui tluir sales. Hach llttlo recovery was fol lowed by a further drop In pilees , until many of the bulls conclu led that the advance had reached 1)9 ) end for thu pionont , when realizing Bales became general. 1'iom Jl.Hi May dropped iinlckly to Jl.tl'i' , then slowly to .11.11 , recov- oii'il to II U'i , sold down to M.I.I , up to Jl.l.'l'i. and about noon wontolT 10 tl.l2' { , with a re covery to tl.ll boforj 1 o'clock. July from 11.14 made a straight dccllno the llr-it hour to II.IS'i , mill after a llttlo locovury wont straight olT toil.II'S. with a recovery to $1.12. The trade was greatly stlrrod no over early Ilrltlsh cables. Lnndoii again reported car- KOOS Od higher , making Is ( > 1 In two ( Hys.

There were all sorts of reasons given f ji- the break. One was that the Ice In the St Ola'.r rlvor will stop wheat shipments , and that New York had stopped buying , There w is occasionally a bearish dlspateh. Logan had one from Kelly. St. Louis , s.iylng there w.is no dpm.ind for c ish wheat. Plllsbury sent word that soudliu In North Dakota and northern Minnesota was late and looking serious , lluying In the pit early was .oil . by Mltcho'.l , White Ss Co. , Dunn , through the day , and lilgelow and the crowd generally. Logan was a seller early and II ildwln pounded the nrirket. Lin Iblojm. 8uhwart7 , llloom and Hoyden all sold froolv. The selling anil pounding In who it continue 1 to the close , when prloos were 33 olT from the high points , and at the bottom figures of thoday. May 1.13' , July Sl.lO'i. April closed nominal at it.12X > August sild at JI.IO at one tlmu and closed at tl.01. September and De cember toucho.l tl.03 early and eloso I at f lOP.f. Trading In privileges on the curb was princi pally In July. Wheat for that month 11.03'i for puts , and il.iilS for calls. The coin murket was not a remarkable ono In any rospoat. The close found prices lo lower than last night for May ut'TISc , and I'Vio lower for July at ( ! 7' c. The dccllno In corn was not of a ch'ir.icter to attract much notice. Helling was < | iil'o ' general but the bears In that pit have boon run In so often that they have not darjil to Do found short to any extent. Thoy. therefore , prollted but little by fie drop In prices. Aside from the sharp break In wheat , which helped selling In all other pits , tlioro wore reasons for an easier fcolliu In corn. The weather was brighter , and this promised an Increase In ijuantlty and an Improvement In the quality of locolpts. Then , too , the corn market has had no snap for a few days ; oven If higher prices are yet to come , the leactlon appears to bo necessary nt tlila time. The action for loaning months was as follows : April , 7e. ! toTJJic , toW'io to the close : Mnv , 72-Ui1 , to73e , anil oir toTl'io to the uloso ; July , o , toGTSu at the close ; Juno closeii lo to . buyeis. July corn privileges Mild nt OJ'sc and O c. The oats market followed the example of the loading cero.its wheat and corn and ruled easier , showing a decline at the close of fully Ic on yesterday's figures. Trading was light , and the market during the greater part of the session wiis dull and uninteresting. May delivery opened at MJic , advanced to c. thu closing price. Juno sold from M\u Sc , to.lMJo at the close , July started at c. sold uploSlc. but closed at Xlo , the. low prlcoof thodav. August closed at 32Uu and bontombor at : JiO. The decline In the prices of provisions from the close yesterdny to the close today was IDo for lard. 20o for ribs and 27Jo for mess pork. This Is more of a set baok than thu market has had In one day torsome time. 1'nrt of the weakness was no doubt In sympathy with the decline In the coroala. It was also in keeping with the lower prices of hogs ut the yards. 1'ork w.s sustained for a short time early by Hntchlnson anil others buying back stiitf sold recently.

The public telujr.ims showed the re markable advance In London of a shilling per quarter and In Liverpool 8 pence per cen tal an t Han Kianclso telegrams published In the moi'iilnpapers noted an advance of 12o per bushel slneu S.UnnHy. Tills was sullli-lunt to start thu mmkct with a great hurrah , but It scon became evident that the longs were mailing themselves of the advance to sell wheat. This was especially the e.iso with foreign holdeis , who are sild to Irivusild not only hero but In New York. The late public cables still showed strength but ourprlv.ito advices from abroad showed an otulor fee ling and a decline from the high prices of the morning. Uegardloss of what may bu iiono In the long- future the market lee s to us deoldodly top heavy and If the longs should hu stampeded they would llnd very few shorts to take their stuff oil their hands. Corn opened firmer In sympathy with whe.it , but the bulge brought heavy reall/.lng as the market declined. A great deal of co use came out on stop orduis. A small reaction took place on thu annoiincemei.t of small receipts for tomorrow , but at no time was any strength shown am ) the close was decidedly tame. Oats opened llrm. but closo.I wo.iK In sympathy with coin. Provisions- Hogs were lower this morning and a disposi tion develop ? ! ! among our lo'al provision traders lo hammer the market. This they were able to do In sympathy with weaker grain markets and thu miirkotelosusdeoldedly heavy. Itnther to our surprise woseo that the ou'-slue are Inclined to sell out their long stutf and this has materially aided our local oper ators In hicaking prices. Kennett. Hopkins ft Co. to S A. McWhortor Wheat opened strong at an advance of nearly Ic and quickly rail od to tl.Ul'i for July , thu hUhest price this year. Cables weru very strong and Plllstmry wlrod from the northwest that no seeding had been done In Northern O.tkota and Minnesota and the situ ation was getting K-rlous Thu big longs among them , S. V. Whlto and Hutch , were heavy sellers and this relieved thu tension. 1 ho wheat looked rather soft and en 'ouraired boars to pound It. Not meeting with as much opposition as on recent occasions they In creased their elTorts and sucooo.lcd In uloslng the market qultu at the lowest price of the session. The advance within the last tluvo or four days has been so r.ipld and continuous that n ro.ictlon had bocbmo almost a neces sity. It Is probable wo hiivu seen top prices for a time. Hutch was a lurgo buyer when the market got below $1.12 for July , and al though ho succeeded In rallying the market temporarily. It finally got nwny from him , the down current proving too strong to resist. It would seem that n further docllno Is proba ble. Longs have genor.illy realized. The nct- vimcu has exceeded expectations and eve the most saiu-nlno bulls admit It Is dangerous to taKQon muchof si lo.id at present prices. The market Is very sensitive and would respond spend roadlly to Important bullish Intelli gence. In the absence of such news wo ought to get another day or two of lower prices. The export movement Is tem porarily chocked nnd foreigners are said to have been sellers here mid at the seaboard today. In corn and oats the In clination manipulated by longs to take profits und lot prices run olt was still moro marked to lay. There was momentary strength at the oponln ? , but with this nxci-ptlon tlio market has shown a ro.ietlonary tendency all day and the close was ut Insldo prices. As the provision market has boon held up lately by thu strength In grain It declined easily today when grain weakened. Local traders for an advance were quick to soil out. Hutchtnson was among the number. Outside orders to soil were moru plentiful. The close was weak at bottom prices. o urts STUCK OIIICAOOprll2l. .

NnwVoiiK , April 21-lSpeclal Telegram to THE llEE.-After ] the expenditure of no much force as was shown yesterday the bulls were naturally languid this morning. No weakness In the stock market was appaient , but the buying power seemed for the moment to have exhausted Itself. Trading was not very active and prices generally hung around yesterday's closings.
