CHICAGO, Feb. H.-Tho corn pit fur
nished n. apcctaclo of excited nctlvlty to
day. The Jlny option, after nn ndvanco
early, broko under lluuldntlon of enormous
lots by long nnd closed HV.io lower.
Other markets were affected sympathetic
ally, wheat closing ttllHc, oats ho and pro
visions 24'374c depressed.
Corn held unditputed sway on the Hoard
of Trade- throughout tlin entire reunion.
The volumo of business was heavy the first
two hours of the day. The May option
opened !4o higher at 4l',ic to 41ic. Thera
was nothing particularly striking either In
tho crop situation or In tho statistical re
ports, but shorts were clamorous In tholr
demands. Heverul million buiiholi changed
hands at tho oponltu: figures, and ufter
touching 41HllUc the market was mid
t ilenly bid up to 41c. It seemed us if
' everybody whh a would-bo purchaser, and-
denly the markot began to crumble. Where
j i few mlnuteg before seorccly any corn
; vras to be had, millions of bushels were for
i utile. Ono speculator was credited with
I netting rid of 5,000,000 tin. nnd
others wcro not far hohlnd. May
declined to 40'IW0Hc. and closed at
40)ic, a net loss of HijTic. Owing to tho
ixccinhn pressuro the market showed re
markable strength, llecclpts wcro 413 cars,
two of contract sradn. , ,
Wheat yielded tho palm to corn without
a protest and followed the lamer market
with nreat docility. Tho pit most of tho
eosulon was half deserted. May oponcd un
changed to Wc hlirhcr at 754c to 75Hr
76ic, Influenced chletly by tho opening
strength, although steady cables and mod
erato northwest receipts wero contributory
factor. Home commission houses buying,
coupled with covering by nervous shorts,
caused on early advanco to 757c. Tim corn
break later caused a reaction to 75c, and
the cloro wus easy, sMfV4o lower ut 7W
76tc Tho market had somo support on
tho decline, but prominent bulls for tha
most part wero not Interested. The de
crease in the visible, 812.000 bu., was ex
pected. The amount of wheat and flour
on ocean passage Is now tho largest over
known nt tho season by 2.500,000 bu. Ex
porters reported twenty-flvo loadH taken
for foreign shipment and Heaboard clear
ances In wheat nnd flour wero equal to
407,000 bu. Primary receipts wcro Cfll.OOO
bu., compared with 914,000 bu. lost year.
Minneapolis and Duluth reported 4!5 cars,
ngaln.it 026 lat week nnd 723 a year ago.
Local receipts wero llfty-elght cars, nono
of which graded contract.
An actlvo trade was done In oats, and
s was tho case In tho corn market thero
was heavy covering of shorts and unload
ing of longs. About 2,000.000 bu. of long
oats camo out, according to a rough esti
mate. Tho markot followed the corn lead,
May sold between 26-Jo and 25',4o and closed
in lower at 25V4c. .......
Provisions wero not able to withstand
tho locil receipts of hogs, which were 14.000
head In excess of tho number estlmato.1
Saturday, and tho swift change In tho pre
vlously bullish condition of tho corn mar
ket. Transactions wero not Important.
May pork sold between $14.07 and J13.07M,
and closed 12'4o lower at.H4.02H; May lard
between J7.47H and $7.42(4. closing 7Wfl0a
down at $7.32ft. and May ribs between
7.v7 and $7.teA. with tho closo 7V4o do

Active Hprcutntlve Llntililntlou Is
Order of the Day In Stocks.
NEW YORK. Feb. 18. Todav wan one of
nctlvo spei'tilatlvo liquidation In the stock
market. Tho bears took a very nctlvo part
In tho day's proceedings both by short sell
ing and by manipulation for tho decline,
offering prices down freely nnd boldly.
Thero whh not much nvldenco of deter
mined support except by the sympathetic
Influcnro of the persistent strength of a
few Individual stocks. Resides the extra
ordinary movement In tho steel stocks
there was decided strength shown by tho
now Toledo, St. Louis & Western stocks,
St. Louis & San Francisco second pre
ferred. Illinois Central, Cleveland, Lorain
& Wheeling preferred, Amalgamated Cop
MTf and Consolidated Gas. Thero was evl
qTonco of continued nctlvlty on tho part
i a bull pool In Burlington, and tho other
grangers showed somo sympathy at ono
time. There was somo support nt Inter
vals also by sympathy with Delawuro &
Hudson, which was extremely erratic all
day. It sold down 2 onlntn nml thou cut
31i over Saturday. There was a down
ward plunge In the period of general Weak
ness of 8 points, und tho final rally left tho
net loss on S?i. In steel stocks it wns
clear enough that speculators were nt-
lempiing lo adjust prices to the supposed
terms of oxchango of tho existing securl
tics Into tho stock of tho new combina
tion. Tho taDO made It nrpttv clour flint
In tho present condition of the plan of com-
uiuuuuii mo preiurren siocks aro intended
tp benefit In tho exchango far moro than
the common stocks. Tho llrst class wero
all extraordinary buoyant and the com
mon stocks showed signs of demoraliza
tion. Hoon nreferred ndviitinoil ut mm Hum
714u nnd other gains by tho preferred stocks
wero 7 by Tin Plate, 4i by Federal Steel.
4 by Steel and Wire, and 24 by 'Republic
oiid. i iiuaa utivuiices were curtailed ny
tho reaction In the market. Natlonnl Tube
led tho decllno In the common stocks of the
steel companies, breaking 7 full points nnd
closing at the lowest. The losses of the.
others wcro partly recovored, but nt ono
iimo coiorauo iniei was down 41i, Na-
tlnnnl Ktpnl iitul Tn,u,n.,.n ,-.! a iA,iAHi
Steel 4. American Hoop 314, Steel nnd
J Iro 34 nnd Tin Plate 2i. In tho gonernl
list tho reaction rnn all tho way from 1 to
3J4 points, tho wldor losses being among
those stocks which have been most manipu
lated for an advance, notably tho south
westerns. Including Missouri Pacific and
Kansas & Texas preferred nnd somo of tho
lately developed obscure stocks, such as
Kvan8vlllo & Terro Hntitn nml tho
North Amerlcnn stock. It was clear enough
..mi. ..in iiuuiuiia uuuuoK iur me money
market waa tho Impelling cause of tho
liquidation and not any serious doubt yt
entertained over general conditions. In
fact, tho liquidation did not appear to bo
voluntary, but was forced by the uncov
ering of stoploss orders on the decline,
which the benrs wcro ablo to effect. With
i iu limit; oui or margins stocks wero
thrown on tho market tn nminni iimUnra
and commission houses which wero carry
ing them for tho customers. Tim mil innn
rato went to 2i per cent during tlin dny.

it dropped back to 2 per cent, partly duo
tho receipt of u $500,005 credit by ono of
to banks for Australian gold arrived at
in fcranclsco. Thero is no expectation,

of. .VoMon had u trying day on 'change,
whllo tho bears scored successes, the equiv
alent of which has not been noted In many
weeks. Tho featuro of today's operations
wan tho. liquidation of March holdings by
f linrnllirnlv il atiitni.-nn,l 1 . i. .
Hlstcnt fcllliiR' of near mouths by tho benr
iiKcicai in general, f rom tne start opera
tions were conducted on a liberal scale,
with present crop options receiving the
bulk of attention. The early English ca
bles wero better than looked for, whllo re
relpts at tho ports proved barely half those
for the snmo day a year ago. There were
a few bllYlllK ordrrM'fnp Mnrnli nn.1 1ax
In evidence, sent on the theory that a ro-
uciiuii innn mo DrcnK or last weeK was In
order. The markot opened steady In tono,
with nenr mnntha 7 nnliiia lilt-imn n ,,.
changed and far months unchanged to 1
point lower. Tho stublllty was of brief
duration, as soon nfter the call great blocks
of March cotton camo out hurriedly, which
started active liquidation of Mny and July.
General selling on a Inrgo scalo was soon
in xnrco oiiu under tho pressuro prlcos
yielded ranldlv. IJv-rnnnl miwi.i
weakness hero for a time, but subsequently
conformed to tho lower figures and closed
well down to the figures current Saturday
noon here. At midday prices had I recov
ered some on profit-taking by shortB, but
later tho market again turned weak under
a fresh spurt of general selling nnd nt
sonco of demand of any character. The es.
tlmates for tomorrow'a receipts nt leading
points wero In accordance with general
ideas, and snot markets also changed ns
expected. Gloomy cotton goods nnd dry
goods market accounts helped to create?
prejudice against tho market, as did the
heaviness In the stock market. Wire and
commission houses were liberal sellers all
through tho decline. Europe bought at tho
niuri, out laier oecame a near-montn seller.
At tho close tho market was barely steady,
with prices net 3012 points higher. Spot,

SHEEP Thero wan the biggest run of
sheep hero today of tho season and other
mamets wera also well supplied, particu
larly Chicago. Tho liberal supply In sight
mado packers bearish nnd as a result the
markot. was slow nnd'lower. It Is a notlce
ablu featuro that packers all want the
light and handy weight sheep nnd lambs
and nay higher prices for that kind than
for tho heavyweights. Cholco HghtwelKht
lambs sold today at right around steudy
prices, but tho heavier weights were prob
ably a dime lower. Lightweight ewes also
sold In good shape, but the heavy ewes
and wethers wero slow and fully a dime
lower than tho closo of last week.
Thero were only a fow feeders offered
today and they sold Just about steady.
