CHICAOO , Jnn , 30. Speculators In wheat
today wcro very much In favor of a lower
jirlco for that commodity. They sold freely ,
both when wheat was strong and when
through their own efforts It b cnm < ' some
what weak , The market , however , stood
the pressure remarkably well and at the
clone only ' , &c & decline had been effected
In May. Corn nnd oats each lift off % o
lower. Pork lost 7'c , lard and ribs ZVz'QZc.
Wheat Btnrtod very Irregularly at 'Jo
nbovc to Uc below Siturday'R closing llg-
iiro for the May future. The very cold
weather had some Influence upon those
who were BO willing to pay an ndvance ,
and lower quotations from Liverpool , with
nn expected Increase In the visible , np-
ji aled to those who were willing to sell
The latter were In the majority and May
Htarted all the way from 77c to 7Sc , de-
< lined quickly to 76 > 4c. At that figure
the selling pressure slackened nnd there
was n fresh Hood of crop damage reports ,
together with enormous clearances at the
Mmhoird. ICurly sellers hastened to co\er.
M ndlng May up to 77T4fi78e.
Chicago receipts were 96 cars , against CO
< -nrs a jenr ago , and Minneapolis and Duluth -
luth got 770 tnrlonds s compared with
MS last week and 487 the corresponding day
11 year airo.
The world's shipments of wheat and flour
In Europe lor the wek amounted to 7,150-
000 bu , , with a tendency on the part of
Kussli to Increase Its otitmit The amount
on orean passage was 4MJ.OOO bu. . nniLtho
result of the week's domestic stock-taking
was an Increase of 310000 bu In the viable.
The total of the latter was found to be
2S.5S1000 bu. , or about 8 000 000 bu smaller
than at the corresponding period of the
j > re\lous year. Primary western market re
ceipts aggregated 119.000 bu. , against 550,000
liu. a year ago. The clearances of wheat
and flour from Atlantic norts , exclusive , of
OnlvpHton. wore 1,051000 bu. Liverpool
closed % { fvid lower for futures and Paris
bhowed a. decline of lOfitEc
The government crop report , expected
tiftor the close of the session , caused some
nelllng In anticipation of Its containing
flomcthlng bearish Beerbohm late In the
day. sent a. cablegram saying the correct
world's shipments of wheat nnd flour
should be called 5.000 000 bu. On receipt of
this pleco of news holders began to lose
confidence again nnd H season of free
liquidation Hot In. under which May de
clined to 76ttc. and closed at 76c.
Cold weather was a bearish argument In
corn. 8omn heavy shorts were supposed to
bo covering In a cautious way on the de
clines. The selling became pronounced near
the end. Mav opened the selling 'M4c
Mghcr at 3SVT < 3S7Je. declined to 3Sc. and
closed at SSfiJS'ic buyer *
Longs continued to take profits In oats
nnd this coupled with the easiness of the
other markets caused a decline. Mav
opened a shade higher at 2SB touched 2Sr 4
GiKltC , and declined to 2 $ < iiR2S'ic at the
close
The declining tendency of the grain mar-
kcto near the end of the session had had
n depressing effect In provisions and In
duced Helling enough to wipe out an early
ndvantagc. A small run of hogs and higher
prices at the yard were the strengthening
influences. May pork opened 5c tip at $1065 ,
Bold at $106714 , sold off to JlOfiO nnd closed
nt J10.52Vi buvors. May lard began 2 c
lilgher at 13 97H , declined to $5 87'4 ' , nnd
closed at $5"X ) seller * . May ribs started 5o
l > ettcr ati30 weakened to $3,17'40520. and
Closed at J5 20ST5 22 % .

NEW YORK. Jan. 30 The movement ot
stock prices today was extremely variable
and after alternate strencth and depression
the market left off firm with mixed changes
averaging nbovo Saturday's- final quota
tions. The supply of money continued
abundant at reasonable rates : and was un-
flffsctcd by February dividend and Interest
requirements Gold to the- amount of $375 -
OTO was engaged for Import , and cable nd-
\Iccs were that $3,000.000 of gold has been
purchased In London for America.
The periodical railway earnings reports
that appeared were gratifying. The volume
of business was a naln of 1.000.000 shares
nnrt because of the continued activity of the
market a number of commission houses now
won ? employes In shifts. London was a
Durcnasor on balance today , particularly of
Northern Pacific and Reading and sold
Union Pacific and Louisville. There was
considerable shifting of commission house
accounts from ono stock to another with a
preponderance of buying orders , which for
a tlmo more than offset the attacks of the
reactionists.
Sugar was actively traded In and lifted
on some rumored arrangement with the
Glucos ; Sugar Refining company. At the
same time there were denials from various
sources of a prospective agreement with
local rival companies. Disclosures made by
the Plttsburg. Cincinnati. Chicago & St.
Louis minority interest vverj construed as
favorable and resulted In a sharp advance
In the stock , part of which was lost on
realizing. Gosslu had It that Northern Pa
cific was In control of the party In favor of
larger dividends and that the stock was re
ceiving uool e-upport. Unconfirmed stories
of the likelihood of the resignation of the
president of the Cleveland. Cincinnati , Chi.
cage & St. Louis weakened that stock borne-
what. Consolidated Gas jumped 8 points on
assertions that a partial union of the gas
interests on Manhattan Island had been
ffscted The scni'-itlonal advances weie
those of Tennessee Coal and Iron preferred ,
10 per cent ; Great Northern preferred , 7'4
per cent , and Colorado Fuel and Iron , 5 per
cent.
cent.Reallzlngs and renewed bear aggression
brought nbout heaviness , but strength in
the specialties ! and the southwestern group
steadied the market , which resumed Itn up
ward course. The grangers , after periods ot
Inactivity. rose moderately. Western
Union and Reading trsucs were also lifted
Profit taking again encouraged a smart raid
on values , effecting numerous declines.
Rallies ensued In the final dealings and the
market closed firm.
The bond market developed considerable
Irregularity today , but the variations for
the most part were unimportant outside of
Texas Pacific seconds. Total sales , $6 295-
000. United States 5s , registered , declined
% per cent and United States 5f , coupon , ' 4
per cent In the bid price.
The Commercial Advertiser's London
financial cablegram says : The market h're
w-ie less active today , but cheerful , easing
off nt thfl close except In Americans , where
profit taking wn continued until New York
came good , particularly for Northern Pa
cific and Southern railway Issues. The clo'e
wns near the be.st , Atchlson preferred ,
which New York sold freely , was an ex
ception. Coppera were buoyant. Tlntos

HOGS Today'k market could be best de
scribed as uniatlsfuctoiy. It was uns.itH'

few hogs that no packer could lio-n' lo go )

ers bocuuse they could nu g t the Advance
which they thought thcj were entitled to ,
us packers were Indifferent and did not ap
pear to care whether they got any hogs ot
not.
Good loads of hogs sold at $3 705T3.75 , the
range b ing the. same as Saturday , but there
were > more loads at the lop price today , t > c
that the average price was higher. It will
bo remembered that on Saturday half ol
the hogs RC-ld at T3 70 , with only one prime
load at $373 The. light nnd light mixed
loads sold at $3 G3j3 ( | 70 , which was the range
on Saturday , but thoie were fewer hogs
today nt the bottom. On Saturday one-
fourth of all the hogs sold at J3(15 (
The market ns n whole was very slow , rs
sellers were unutiling to I ° t gt > of their
