A .some began almost at tlio tap of tin' bell. 11 had liei'M snmnwlmt nonernlly expected that there would bo an easier opening because of thoheiny closing yr.sterdav. Instead them was an advance right at the start and the bity- ngatoneo became so general that the biggest kind of a bull market developed the Mrst hour. Tlio rallies weie .lions and higher.

It was not lielluved , nnil the iiiiirkrt seemed to gather stictiglli us It atUanci'd. During the last hour , however , there was an easier focllm ; . St. I.ciuls dispatches Intimated that the rumor of K'J for Ihe Missouri wheat ciopmluht bo I'looo to corned. It was claimed that Cudahy brokers cave up his name on about fiOO.OOO bu. July wheat sold on the advance. Ono explanation of the scare early was ( hat Bomooflhe managers of the western mads had lologinplied hero confidentially saying that the drouth contlouid and wheat looked bad and as the Information from this source would not bo likely to e.xa ierate ; the condi tions operators were Inclined to glvo attention 10 report.s. The opening for May was about the same as tlio close of yesterday to ' ( ' advance , ruled btronger and prices wete adumced with some Ilurtiiiitlnns liV , ruled easier and ihc closing was steady , about 7 o hlt-'her than yesterday.

The market iifloi-wiiid receded ! ( . ' and closed with a slight gum. Theie was a peed demand for July , wld.-h was llrm when Jlny was weak , the spread being widened at < mu time to IV , There was very f-ilr buying by receiving houses who have generally held bearish vlows , hut who aiu Inclined to cover on any weak spots. There was a fair trade but a narrow market for oats , prlcos llncluatlng within a 'iC rnngo and closing at about the same pi Ices as yo.-ter- rtay. Shorts were the best buyers. The sell ing camoclilully from discouraged longs. With the receipts of hogs small and thogialn mar kets hlionger early , prices of hog products uiled hlghoi > . In a general way the demand was less urgent opeiators helns cautious to their movements and distrustful about fol lowing the advance further while the offerIngs - Ings were Hulllclent tocruata the Impression that a fair proportion came from ( no long Interest -parties who were willing to accept moderate profits. 1'rlces settled hack again rapidly and closed rather easy. Whorls accepted fair quantities. There was considerable changing of long stuff from May to September ami also spreads In Ilii ! way of soiling May and buying September.

In ho case of New Kngland this Interest was cer- alnly increased by selling on the day after Mr Ifoil's withdrawal from the Ifeadlng. It vas argued with some show of icason that to ibandon Heading's plans of extension would ic lo Impair the strategic value of New Kng- and stork. The truth Is , however , as has iflen been pointed out In this column , that the success of Heading's Invasion of New Kngliind mist Inevitably have Involved the crushing ml of the Intermediate railway's profit. The recent heavy buying of New Kngland stock by one brokerage house may be In some way slg- illlcant. 'Iho company's present situation annul In Ihe nature of things bu pcimanent.

I'llltiAV , April 7. So far this week , compared wltli last , there lias been a falling otr of about 2,200 cattle , 8,000 hogs and 2.HOO sheep , and It naturally follows thai this big shortage has resulted In Mrongerund mote active markets. The market for beef cattle was firm. Offer ings were rather light , less than 100 cars all told , and the quality was as It lias been right along of late , IndllTcrcnt. Castorn mar kets wi-io reported quiet , and on lids account spcciilallM1 nctlvlly was reduced to llio minimum. Diessetl beef buyers had the Held to themselves , but all had liberal orders and under active com petition some of the more desirable f it light and medium weight steers sold a shade stronger , other grades they liotuht nt right around steady pi Ices , ( iood to choice l.-"ill to l.-l&O-lu. lici'M'ssnld at fiom * 4.HO to J5.lt ) with fair togood l.noo to 1,250-lb. steers at from ifl.35 lo.J4.7ri , the llirliter grades soiling tit from Jl to $1.30. There aiipears to be a good , strong , heallhv undertone to the trade , but buyers are doing everything In their power to keep prices donn as much as possi ble till the grass cattle begin to come foruard. llulchers' stock sold all right today , sluing on any tiling choice at from f.70 ; ) to J4.25 for best , and fiom $2.55 lo { 3.05 for fair to good stock. Common and canning grades weie dull , with prices fully Uic lower than the llrsl oflho week nt from J1.H5 to { 2.50. Itougli stock was In Indifferent leqursl and dull at from J2 to4. I'ahes me selling 25c and 50c lower limn a week ago. Sales loday were at from $2.25 lo J5.50 for common locholce stock. There was absolutely nothing new In the stocker and feeder t ratio. I'tesh receipts woto peihaps a little heavier than usual , but the country demand shows no Improvement whatever. Sales out of llrst hands weio largely at from J3 to $3.70 and Included nearly 300 head of t'ohnndo cattle nt { 3.50 nnil $3.70. Country purchases were light. Kepresonla- tlve sales : IWKSAEl ) HCKP.
