CHICAGO , May 15. Wheat Was very
heavy today nt the lowest price ever known
Jn the month of May nnd closed Ho lower.
The feature of today's trading was heavy
liquidations of the longs , weak cables , line
weather nnd nn Increase on passage aiding
In the decline. The other markets were
affected by the weakness In wheat , July
corn closing % c lower , July oats MO lower
nnd provisions lower nil around ,
In whent n largo business wns transacted.
Opening trades showed from tto to HO loss ,
nnd gradually the market sold down % c
to 1' c , rallied "Ac , changed some , nnd closed
ns stntcd. Liquidation by tired longs wns
the chief feature of the duy. The early
Influences were bearish , the chief of which
were weak cables , the Increase on passage
nnd the fine weather. Prices gave way
rapidly , local traders being rather aggres-
lve and confident of lower prices , nnd In
creased the offerings ns the session ml-
vnnced. A prominent operator , supposed to
be short heavily , gave the market good sup
port after the first decline , as also dhlin
large concern with elevntor Interests. This
buying Htnyeil the downward , tendency for n
time , but Inter on fresh lines came out niter
the prlco worked down , making new low
records In nil deliveries. The IncrtmKe of
the world's visible supply of 4.4CO.OOO bu.
raiiHctl the prices to react , nnd was about
the only bullish feature presented nil day.
The close wns but He from the bottom.
Corn wno weak nil day. The downward
course of wliont , together with the fine
weather , were the principal weakening In
fluences , nnd considerable long came out
on the break , which Increased the depres
sion. Opening trades showed ttc loss , nnd
after selling up Ho gradually worked down
ic , rallied io toc , changed some , and
closed ' , ic from the bottom.
Outs wn easy on selling nnd In sympa
thy with whr-nt. June was sold freely and
closed Kc lower. July Closed Uc from the
Provisions were dull nnd weak In sym
pathy with the grain markets. Offerings
were free and the market broke to a mod
erate extent. Compared with last night ,
July pork Is 27'Ac ' , July lard 12Vic and July
ribs U'X-c ' lower.

NEW YORK , May IB. After nn extremely
dull opening , enlivened only by n decline by a
point or o In American Sugar IleflnlnK stock ,
the share list developed weakness and prices de
clined In the entire list. The knowledge Hint
Mr. Gould Is about to leave for Europe wan
nlllUrd by the beam to make a sharp raid on
Missouri Pacific , nnd the stock brolcc from 29H
to 26H on sales of only 11,602 slinros. The
break In this slock , however , was sulllclenl to
start selling In other parts of the list and n
decline of from ' ,4 to U4 per cent ensued. Bunar
fell off 114 per cent , to 103ij Atchlson 1 % P-r
cent , to 104 : Northwestern Hi per cent , to 10S ;
Hock Island 1 per cent , to 68T4 ; Union Pnclllc
% per cent , to 17 ; Lead T4 tier cent , to 3S % ;
nnd Ht. Paul % per cent , to CO'j. Atchlson was
unfavorably affected on the report that th stock
holders would be nsiessed $20 tr t chare under
the reorganization , Instead of $10 , as at llrst pro-
IHWI ] , TinenK.iKetncnl of $500.oi In Kold byon
Hoffman & Co , for shipment to Europe , nnd the
talk of heavy exports by Balmday's steam-rs
liil to free polllm ? by Ihe room traders. The
Ironblps nl the west nlso hail n depressing effect ,
although , according to the statements of olllclnls
of leading lines , the troubles will be speedily
adjusted , The market closed quiet at a frac
tional recovery.
The railway and inlnci-llaneousi bonds mnrket
wns easy and the tendency downwind.
The Evening Post says : The sharp decline In
wheat and the uncertain reports of rnte-cuttliiK
were the really slgnlllcant factors In today's
financial news. Until the day wan pretty well
advanced neither of these Influences affected
market prices. Toward the clnsi of buslnes" ,
howewr , th market yielded under n moderate
hear pressure nnd the close , thoilKh dull , WHS
weak. The day's declines were very i-venly
illslrlbuted , Atchlson nnd Missouri P.iclllc suffer
ing the most di-clded losses , HIP former on the
not-at-all-probablc report that the i tpectcd re-
oiKitnlz.itlon plan will carry a heavy tmu-
holders' assessment. To news of this kind , pli-ns-
nnt or not , holders nf stock of bankrupt roads
may as well compose their minds.

Tliorevnn n Rood , llbcrnl run of both
cattle nmt hogs today , but , ns on Monday ,
there were no sheep offered.
The fat cattle mnrkct was active nnd
firm. Receipts were rnthcr llbcrnl and the
quality was good. All classes of buyers
exhibited a fair degree of activity , nnd
sellers experienced no dllllctllty In Iliullnu ;
purchnBcrs. Handy light fnt cattle were
In good request from all sources , nnd
prices ruled a shade higher In most cases ,
while the heavier grades were In In
different request , unless good. Choice 1,101-
Ib. steerH sold up to $1 , and that figure was
also the limit pnld for very good 1,481-lb.
cattle. Hough , heavy steers were luird to
move nt nny price. Some 1,20.1-11) . fed
western steers sold for J3.C7. while only
fnlr 881-lb. steers brought $3.75. Under
mich circumstances there Is little Incentive
to feeders to finish their cattle. Heavy
Hteers are going out of style nnd fat pony
enttle are becoming more popular every
day. In general It wns a good , firm ,
active market , and the forenoon's trading
practically exhausted the supply.
Possibly G per cent of the offerings today
were cows and mixed lots. The mnrkct
presented no new features. Good stuff
wns In active demand and strong , while
common and miming grades ruled sloxv
and weak. Sales were at from $1.25 to
J3.75 , with nearly everything nt nil useful
selling nt 13 or better. Calves at from
$2.BO to $4.75 were unchanged , and bulls
nnd stags at from } 1. 0 to 33.25 were quot-
ulily firm.
There was , perhaps , a trllle more life to
the stacker and feeder trade. Country
buyers were more numerous nnd specula
tors found more encouragement U do busi
ness. Prices were no better , but the feelIng -
Ing on all sides was more healthy. Sales
were largely at from $3.20 to $3.63 , Inclucl-
n. lot of very decent westerns nt $3.55.

HOGS Ilecelpts were tolerably liberal ,
1,500 more than on last Tuesday and nn In
crease for the two ilays as compared with
last week of about 2,000 hogs. The quality
as a rule was very Kood. Local packers
all started In rather bearish , but slightly
better reports from the east and a good
nhlpplng and speculative demand soon In
duced a llrmcr feeling , nnd most of the
trading was on the basts or very nearly
steady prices. Business was moderately
active throughout , und the close was Htrong.
The popular price for fnlr to good stuff of
all weights was $4.65 , while lots of the good
to choice loads brought $4.8714 and $1.90.
Poor light nnd mixed stuff went at around
$4.80 and $4.82Vi. The big bulk of the trad
ing , however , was at (1.83 and $1,90 , as on

The Nebraska weather crop bulletin for
the week ending May 14 1ms been Issued by
Captain 0. E. Hunt , the observer ut Omaha ,
as follows :
Owing to the continued drouth In the
Bouthwcstcrn portion of the state and the
appearance of cut worms and bugs In some
localities the reports this week are Hot al
together so favorable as the preceding two
weeks , and while It Is hardly probable tlint
any serious damage has tlnm far resulted
from drouth seasonable rains would prove
of great benefit In nil portions of the state ,
except the northeastern section , where they
have had all the moisture needed. Wheat
and other small grain , as a rule , are doing
well ; pastures are excellent nnd fruit pros
pects were never better. Many oat Holds
nro being plowed up and replanted In corn ,
thus largely Increasing the acreage of that
most Important of Nebraska crops. The
bulk of the corn crop 1ms been planted and
much of It Is already up to a good atnml
and Is being .worked. The season Is well
advanced and upon the whole the prospects
are better than the average In this state.

SIOUX FALLS , S. D. , May It. ( Special
to The Dee. ) The outlook for enormous
crops this year Is very llatterlng. The sea
son opened early , and the fanners lost no
tlmo In getting their seed In the ground.
As a result of their Industry , wheat Is now
out of the ground , thick , of good color and
vigorous ; oats are mostly up and In good
condition ; corn Is nearly all planted , and u
farmer In the city yesterday reported that
he had some corn up ; flax seeding IB now
occupying the attention of the farmer , and
pasture lands show a greater growth of
grass than for many years ut this time of
the season. The acreage of wheat Is proba
bly not Increased any over Inst year , and
possibly not as large , while the acreage of
oats , corn nnd flax will be much larger
than last year. _
