CHICAGO , Slay U. Whent made a bold
advance of ' ,4c per bu. In the face of a bat
tery of bearish statistics , but the price
was beaten back and at the close was % u
lower than on the day before. The bear
ish feature which prevailed In the end
over crop damage reports and diminishing
receipts and stocks WUH the absence of ex
port demand to ICurope at current prices.
Corn ruled heavy near the end nnd lost Vic
per bu. , nnd oats lost Uc. 1'rovlslons ruled
dull and weak , pork losing ISc.
Wheat opened very Irregularly but strong ,
July , which closed yesterday with sellers
nt Cjc , opened with general demand for
U at that price , but with hardly a seller In
sight ; C5c wns Immediately bid , und numer
ous lots changed hands nt GGc , on ? or two
bringing ns high ns C5c , thus again touch
ing the previous high water mark since the
bull fever began to rage nbout a month
ago. The severe frosts on the two previous
nights nnd firmer cables were the surface
conditions which created the more urgent
Qpinnnd this morning. The receipts at Min
neapolis und Duluth were 110 cars , compared
wllh 2SO cars on the corresponding day of
the year before. The tolnl uf the primary
market receipts was U2.000 bu. , compared
with 222'W bu , nt the similar time n year
ngo. The exports from the Atlantic sea
board amounted In wheat and Hour to only
230 000 bu. , all but & > , OCO bu. of which was
In the shape of wheat. The world's visible ,
ns reported by Hrndstreet'p , showed a de
crease of only 974,000 bu. , a decrease In the
country of 3,816,000 bu. , being reduced as
nbove by nn Increase of 2,872,000 bu. In
Kurope and altoat. The decrease In the
world's visible the corresponding week of
the year before was 4G"0,00) bu.
After the opening burst of bullish har
mony the tune was changed to n lower
key , and July sold back to COc , and before
It rallied to any extent It touched Gl'fcc.
After that It recovered again to fiS ic , but
the absence of any actlce change In the
latent bullish features of the domestic plt-
lintlon nnd the presence of some rather
actively bearish news , already referred to ,
created too strong an Impression upon the
minds of the professional speculators for
them to be carried away by sentiment , and
accordingly they sold freely on the several
hard spots. The load became a little heavy
near the end , nnd the price sagged to Ciy c ,
but rallied a trifle and closed at CGc.
The corn market was rather dull and for
the most pait weak. The early strenglh In
wheat sustained corn for a time , but when
I the former turned weak the latter followed
suit. The receipts were 403 cars , and 210
cars nre estimated for tomorrow. Liverpool
was quoted Ilnn atid advance , and Mil-
mine. Hodman & Co. , New York , reported
having sold fourteen boat loads for exi > ort.
The freezing weather of the last two nights
nnd consequent nccesslly which Is develop
ing for a replanting of n good deal of the
nrea In this and adjoining states did not
have much effect , the general opinion being
that the area to be replanted would In the
end bo found to be small , and , In any
event , that replant corn had a good chance
of making n crop. July opened at Clc to
ClUc , sold oft to SOHc to D0c , and closed
at GOMc.
The oatH market wns fairly active. A
flrm tone was noticeable up to 12 o'clock ,
nlmply a , lack of orders being accountable
for the fact. Later In the day free selling
by Carrlngton and Hannah and other people
ple caused a decline In prices. Dradstreel's
report showed nn Increase In the visible
supply of 410,000 bu. , nnd helped the decline.
V June started at 28V4c , sold to 27T4c and closed
nt that price , n decline of % c since yesler-
day. July "old from 28c to 27c to 2Sc ,
nnd rested at tin low price. September
closed /ic lower nt 2GVsc sellers.
Provisions started lower on account of a
rather heavy hog market being reported
from the yards , liuslness was of a rather
plugglsh character and the tendency wns
toward a further decline , after n prelimi
nary break. Pork slnrled wllh a drop of
JOc , lard Be and ribs from 2' , < .c lo 5c , und nt
the close the declines hnd Increased to 25e
In pork , lOc In lard nnd 1214 cln ribs. Hog
receipts today were 22,000 head.
Kstlmuted receipts for Wednesday :
Wheat , 15 cars ; corn. 210 cars ; oats , 200
cars ; hogs , 31.0CO lund.

TUESDAY , May 14.
There wns a comparatively light run of
cattle nnd sheep today , but the heaviest
run of hogs In over a month. The total
was 105 curs , of which twenty-two were
cattle , 550 hentl , ns against 1,227 Monday
nnd 1,521 on last Tuesday. With less than
half as many cattle ns on Monday , there
was no Improvement whatever In the de
mand , nnd the market was on the same
dull , dragging order with n further Foften-
Ing of values. Eastern markets were Jn
bad shape and shippers Uld nothing , so
that It was the good weight cattle that
suffered the most. In some cases these
sold n dime lower , while many of the lighter
cattle sold at fully steady prices. The
general quality of the offerings was not
very good. Some l.zus-lb. beeves brought
J5.3S , but $4.10 to $4.70 bought the bulk of
the offerings.
Cow stult ruled flrm. The supply was
small , the demand good and tne move
ment free. Veal calves sold fresly nt full
yesterday's llgures , but bulls , stags , etc. ,
ruled easier ,
There was not much doing In stackers
nnd feeders. Offerings were extremely lim
ited , and while the uemand was quite brisk
und prices quoting strong , the volume of
trading was necessarily limited. Good to
choice feeders nre quotable at J3.S3if4.Oi ) ;

a cold ruin , storin.1 and no malls from Interior
markets there was a lack of Interest en the
part of buyers for seasonable wants and the
demand was very Irregular. Through the charg

erable Inquiry made for brown cottons , but the
absence of stocks and near deliveries , sold
