CHICAGO, Fob. 21. Wheat wns strong
arly today, but was forced down later and
May closed at Ufl'ic lower. Com closed
HQUo and oats a shade higher, Provisions
closed a shade to 6'j7V4c depressed,
Wheat opened strong, May c higher nt
76j07ftic, Liverpool and Antwerp both
lending encouroKoment In ndvanres equal
to tha bulao Jiero yesterday. Reports of u
brighter export outlook were not substan
tiated, however, and this was a factor In
the closing decline. At tho opening offer
ings wcro light and It took no great nmount
of buying to send tho morkct from 76Mc,
which It touched early, to 7CHc. Lorn?
wheat camo out freely and tho market
dropped to 75c. Covering because or tint
holiday tomorrow caused a reaction to .6
C7C!ic, hut reneweil prcssurn forced tho
market back to 75Hc, and tho close was
easy, May UftNc lower nt 1o3tf. Seaboard
clearances In wheat and Hour were equal to
269.0W bit. 1'rlmary receipts were 430.WO bu.
Minneapolis and Duluth reported 351 cars,
nealnst 311 last week, while local fresh ar
rivals wcro 45 cars, one of contract grade.
The crop was reported In good condition,
olthough lacking snow condition In many
areas.
Tbero was a fairly active trade In corn
and the market for that cereal ruled strong.
Country offerings were light, nnd to tho
small contract stocks tho day's fresh arriv
als added but little. Firm cables added to
tho bullishness of the situation. The com
mission houso demand was persistent, out
side orders predominating. Toward tho end
of the session thero was somo liquidation
to even up, pending the holiday tomorrow,
but thn close was strong. May sold be
tween 40y,'if40c and 414c and closed HSlMc
higher at Hit ISe. Hecelpts wcro 272 cars,
Oats wero steady and fairly active. May
old between W,'n'2jo and 2jTic and closed
a. shade higher at MHOfisaie. Hecelpts wcro
183 cars.
Provisions opened llrm becausu of
strength In tho hog market and In sym
pathy with wheat nnd corn, but dropped off
later becausu of thu dullness of trade, May
pork sold between S14.17H and $14.05 and
closed MtVAc lower nt 114.05: May lard be
tween $7.65 nnd J7.K5, closing a shudo down

NEW YORK, Feb 21. -Thu sharp upturn
In tho steel stocks, which gained force
rapidly toward thn close of the market, was
the only thing that redeemed the market
from uninteresting dullness today. Steel
Plato and National Steel sluwed tho most
pronounced strength In this recovery, the
former rising 6. over lust night nnd the
latter 4U from thei early lower point. The
outstanding' short Interests, which had
grown quite largo In the stocks of the steel
compunles, hail 11 largo part of this nulck
rally. Tho report that the so-culled Mnor
properties of the steel group were standing
out for a largo share in the securities of th-
new company was iui Influence In thn rise,
tho supposition of thu speculators being
that they were likely to get whnt tli-y
claimed. But thn other steel stocks were
not much behind In tho movement, Fed
eral Steel rallying .i'i from the low.'r
point: Steel and wlro 3V nnd Tennessee
Coal 3. Whether tho movements accurately
forecast any act nil developments in the
steul merger negotiations can on'y be told
when tho results are given to the public.
Details were closely guarded up to tho
tlmo of the closing of the market, but It Is
thu general supposition that the plan of the
steel company, so far 11.1 It Is to have olll
elal nnnounccment, will be given before
trading Is res.imed on Monday. Actual In
formation on these detnlls Is so vuguo that
the shorts In the steel stocks wcro over
come with timidity and hastened to close
their contrncts before tho coming three
holidays. The same influence was at work
on other parts of the list. Weakness of the
market begun to change tn recovery when
support whs manifest in the steel stocks,
The weakness was quite acute nt ono time,
tho steel stocks leading the decline, as lliey
did thn recovery, Many of the prominent
railroad stocks were down between 1 nnd 2
points, tho grangers. Pacifies, Southwest
ems nnd somo of tho coalers being con
spicuous. B.irllngton, Kansas & Texas pre
ferrcd, Erin second preferred and Rock
Island were notably weak. These stocks
were nil conspicuous In the rally nlso. A
number of Important rnllrond stocks were
lifted n point nbove last night. Thero was
a very largo demand for the Southern rail
way stocks and tho Wabash securities.
Thero whs a vuguo expectation of somo
news to come concerning the Southern rail
way, but nothing definite was unnounced.
Rumors to the effect that a community of
Interests with tho Seaboard Air lino was
contemplated met with disclaimers. The
Southern railway stocks each advanced
2s. Tho continued ease of the money imir
kut was an InHuencu In driving tho shorts
to cover, ns It was expected that thero
might bo a flurry In money Incidental to
the demand to curry over until next Mon
day, The bank reports gains of cash from
tho Interior since last Friday nnd their ac
count with tho subtreasury about balances.
But tho general conviction Is that furMier
largo loans have been mado In the further
ance of largo financial projects and that
the weekly bank statement will show a fur
ther contraction of tho surplus,
Tho bond market was dull and Irregular,
except for an acute demand for Wabash
debentures. Total sales, par value, $3,410,000.
United States refunding 2s advanced nnd
tho old 4.s utul Gs U per cent on tho last call.

Tho Commercial Advertiser's Ixindon
financial cablegram says: The stock mar
ket hero was stagnant today and tho tone
was undecided on account of the lnck of
any definite news from South Africa und on
doubts regarding the settlement of tho
Chinese troubles. Tho reduction of tho bank
rate to 4 per cent has been too fully dis
counted to have any effect now. In tho
American department prices dwindled Idly
most of tho time. Amerlcnn shares on
loyed a slight spurt before tho opening In
New York in tho hopo thnt Wall street
would turn buyer today, hut when only sell
ing orders wero cabled the London murket
closed sloppy nnd dull. The bank bought
203.000 of gold bnrs. In spite of tho ex
pected reduction of tho bank rate bills were
3?i per cent loduy and business was going
to the bank nt 4 per cent. The bank still
charges 6 per cent for loans, although the
market rate Is 3?iOl per cent. The bunk
statement Is very strong, showing that the
government has repaid tho bank 2,250,000.

CATTLE Thero was another light run of
cattlo here today, but tho market was not
as excited as yesterday. Beef steers of
good quality, however, moved In good
shapo at Just about yesterday's prices. The
common and half-fat stuff was rather slow
sale, but at the samo time packers bought
it up at practically steady prices. Tne
warmed-up cattle sold largely to feeder
buyers at steady prices, as packers would
not pay as mucn as tne iceaer Olivers.
Although tho market was not particularly
active, anything at nil deslrablo was sold
In fairly good season,
Tho cow market today did not begin to
be as radical as It wus yesterday. Condi
tions were rnther unusual yesterday, re
ceipts being light and tha demand heavy
enough to mako packers pay most any
prlco In order to get supplies. Thero were
plenty of sales that wero a quarter higher
than Monday, but today they did not get
ns wild. Prices today, however, can safely
bo quoted 1015c higher than Monday, par
ticularly on tho good stuff. Bulls, calves
and stags brought right around steady
prlcetfr
As has been the case all the week there
wero very few feeders on sale today and
prices wcro good and firm. Anything at all
deslrablo that has not been fed corn was
picked up early nt good strong prices. Tho
common kinds wero rathor slow, but about
steady and tho warmed-up cuttlo bought
for feeders sold in Just about yesterday's
notches. She stuff and stock bulls nlso
looked about steady today. Representative
sales:
