CORN ALSO HAD A BULLISH START ' ' lliulnoM Con- Greater I'nrl of the Ilny'n llfttnl In C'lmriBhiK Miiy Contracts Into July-Outs M'cre I'lrin t the Opening , CI1ICAOO , May 1. May deliveries in Brain and provisions wcro made today with Burprlslng smoothness nnd the bulls put up the prlco of wheat about V4c for July. I atcr they discovered that their congratulations had been premature when wheat , on favor- nhlo conditions , was taking a Ic tumble , which resulted In a loss for the day of % c per bu. Corn was dull nnd followed llio course of wheat. U closed Uc lower for July and 1-lCc lower for May. Oats were Htrong until near the close. May rose % c , but left off with nil but V o of the ndvnnco gone. Provisions slartort out firm , but closed with a slight loss In value. The deliveries of May wheat before the opening were very light , considering the largest Blocks. The estimates of the quan tity delivered varied from l.r.00,000 to 2,000- 000 bu. The trade evidently considered them light enough to bo encouraging to the bull Hide of the market , which started strong at about Uc over the closing prices of the previous day. May for an instant sold nt fiSMiC , but GSc was Immediately touched and offerings became at once very light. It gradually worked up In the next hour to fiOc. July was flrm nt the opening and ad vanced He , but It hail n weak quarter of an hour when the Daltlc and other foreign 'ports were reported as having shipped C.2IO- 000 bu. In wheat ami Hour last week ; that caused a decline to 0c. July became flrm again nnd recovered to C0',4c when the At lantic port clearances wcro known to amount to about COO.OOO bu. of wheat nnd flour. Iluylng by the Anglo-American Packing company advanced May to Me and nar rowed the spread between It and July from 2Uo nt the opening to Hie Inter. The de mand for May wheat Hlackened at length and the price fell off to fiSe , after hawing touched CSVic , but It recovered ' , 0 nt the cloie. The deliveries of corn wcro only about 3,000,000 bu. , J. C. Schwartz taking In nnd paying for most of It. This gave the market n bullish start. The buying was continued by Armour for a short time , advancing Ihe price from 37jC to " % c. A large part of today's business consisted In changing May contracts Into July. In the later half of the session the market became weak In sympathy with wheat and closed weak. Oats were flrm at the opening aud the de mand for May oats continued , not only from shorts , but from longs who were ro- porlctl to have taken some. The close showed the prlco back again within % c of the opening. The cash market was firmer. The provision mnrket was dull and drag- King1. There was a short period of flrmness near the opening , caused by the receipts of hogs being 1,000 less than estimated. The opening quotations were the highest for thu day. July pork started at $12.70 , de clined ami closed fie lower than on the day before. There was no trndo In May lard until near the close , when it sold sparingly and closed nt $7.45. July lard opened nt from J7.121to $7.1G , declined and closed at S7.1G. July ribs sold from $ C.52'/4 at the beginning of the session to $0.45 nt the close on a steady decline. .

The transactions on the Stock exchange wcro considerably lean than on yesterday , but Ihe trading was more widely distributed and the general tone of Iho market was better. Sugar was again the leader of the speculation , but the volume of business therein was decreased by nearly one-half , nnd there was evidence of liquida tion of the bull pool In the stock : In the very largo supply of the shares. The talk of fa vorable tariff changes was less confident * nnd altogether It was loss favorable to n future ndvanco In price. At the opening free offerings were made nnd prices declined gradually until 101 wns touched , a. loss of 1 % per cent from yesterday's closing ( Inures. Then n good buying movement was devel oped , which was largely to cover shorts contracts - tracts , and n gain of 1 % per cent was ef fected , followed by a reaction of 1 % per cjnt anil n II mi I recovery of 1 per cent , making a decline on the day of't per cent. Sugar preferred declined l' per cent , but rallied ' 4c nt the close. Heading of the railway list was most nctlve , nnd wns depressed by re ports of dllllcultlcs In the way of reorganiza tion. The grangers were among the strong est stocks on the list. Hurllngton was the most active of the group. The publication of ( he March earnings did not hear out the depressing reports of the past few days , and the unexpectedly good showing In net earn ings caused the shorls lo cover. This sent prices up after an opening decline of % , the ndvanco ranging to 2 % per cent , and being most pronounced In the late dealings. The closing prlco was within % per cent of the highest. St. Paul made n gain of "B per cent , Hock Island % per cent and Northwestern % per cent. The general market opened weak and a fraction lower , but quickly * recovered the loss. Koine few shares declined during the first hour , notably American Tobacco preferred , which lost 1 per cant. During the hour before noon the tendency wns toward higher prices , but the trading was very light and the fluctuations narrow. After mldilay.n fractional reaction took place , hut tlio mnrket quickly rallied and the quota tions again moved upward , only to bo low ered nbout 1:45 : o'clock. But during the last half hour the speculation assumed a strong tone , and an Improvement was entered upon which continued to the close , the final sales showing gains on the day of % to 1 % per cent. The bond market was steady In the early part of the day , but closed Irregular. The following nro the closing quotations on the lending Blocks of the New York ex change today : bid.

There was a good average Tuesday's run of cattle and hogs hero today , but no sheep. The two days' supply of calllo falls about 1,300 head short of the same two days last week , in sheep there Is a TOO head shortage , while hog receipts have been about the same. Cattle values generally ruled firm today , nnd business was brisk. Kastern advices were not particularly bullish , but us there was a good shipping and export demand , as well as an active Inquiry from all local slaughterers , and the supply was compara tively light , the feeling was generally stronger. There were some right good heavy cattle here , but the lighter grades wcro mostly fair to poor stock. Fair to good 1,200 to l.ROO-lb. beeves sold at from J3.i : > to $3.05. while fair to good light steers weighing from 850 lo 1,107 Ibs. sold nt from $3.3i ! up to $ : ! .S5. Burly trading was rather sluggish , but Improved as the day were on , the close being characterized by considera ble activity and occasional higher prices. In Ihe cow market there was no particu lar change. Supplies were moderate and the demand fair. All grades , Including canncrs , seemed In better request at firmer prices. The supply of calves was too liberal to ad mit of any Improvement In values , and n generally weak tone pervaded the trade. LUills , oxen nnd staes were In very fair re quest at good , firm prices. The stocker and feeder trade was rather quiet , and while prices wcro not quotably lower , trading was slow and the edge- oft the market. Offerings were tolerably liberal ami the demand not very vigorous from either yard traders or country buyers. Good to choice feeders are quoted nt from $3.25 to $3.85 , fair to good nt from $3 to $3.25 ami Uglier , commoner grades at from $3 down. Representative sales : DHESSED IJEn No. Av. 1'r . No. Av.
