April 3 It wan Bnothrr bear nay on the Jlonrd or Trade tndny. v heat had plenty of Rood bullish new, hut the sentiment prevailed that yesterday's bilge i more than condition warranted and the late bearish crop new Bent prices downward until May wheat closed 'c lower. May corn S'(iio down 'and May oata unchanged. Provisions alao had a set- bar and closed l' to Zih.0 lower. Trade In wheat dragged murh of the time rrrsd only once showed any snap. Foreign margets were slightly up, but disappointed the bulla In their unresponsive character. Much of the early crop newa waa bearish and showed Ita effect on opening prices. Opposed to theae factor were the very good caah demand by miller some thing like 300,0110 buehel of No. 1 northern being aold and reports of probanly re duced stocks at Duluth, and Minneapolis. There waa a semi-official report that tlfe shortage In Oklahoma and Kansas would be SOJmO to J.n bushels because of the crop damage. May started b to c lower at ic to 7174c and worked up to 2o on the bull news, but there was no force to the market, offering were liberal, outside markets dragged badly and then came i report of a statlstlral concern that, allow ing about three-quartcYs of last year's pro. Auction ror Kansas and unio, the six prin cipal wheat states would raise aa much wheat at last year. In an already weak wheat market this had a slumping effect and May slid down to a weak close, c lower at 71Hc Recepta.) cars, none of contract graue; Minneapolis ana utiiutn reported lt4. a total for the three points of 224 cars, against 255 last week and 815 a year ago. primary receipts were oniy IM.OUO bushels, compared with 632.000 a year ago. Beahoard clearances equaled 75S,OiiO bushels. The seaboard reported JW loads taken for export. There were new tactics In the corn pit today that set the crowd guessing again. Prices started out at small declines, be cause of the Indifference of the foreign cables). Suddenly the prominent bull Crowd that has been active In July options began to sell of that delivery and bought f.OuO.OOO bushels of September. This pushed the lata future up and the crowd began to tall In. The nearer deliveries suffered In consequence and, unlike wneat, showed no tendency to recover. When the offerings of September proved In excess of the 1e mand that delivery eaed off again and wheat exerted a weakening Influence. Wheat was reported favorable for the crop. Aside from the Incident In Heptemher the corn maraet was siacK. witn a ten dency toward the selling side. May sold between eoviigflOSo and Wc . and closed weak, "wao lower at &8j!);c. Receipts, ' ma cars. 4) Oats showed Independent strength Tor a time today on buying ot May that led to the belief that a movement In the cash. cereal waa at hand. The market, how lever, waa very dull and aside, from the May strength there was no feature. May sold at 434)0 and closed steady and un changed at 4ISC. Receipts, 101 cars. Seed ing and starting of plant growth was re ported progressing well. Provisions . were weak and the decline looked very milch like continued manipula tion at the hands of the packers. The hog market was weaker and the small decreaae In lard stocks Induced selling of that product. Pork, however, was the bone of contention and packers and other longs took profits and threw stuff over so quickly that many shorts who had recently run to cover did not have a chance to put out again the property they had bought under pressure. May pork closed ZTV&c lower at tl46; May lard, 20c down at $9.60, and May ribs. 10c oftVat 18.87H. Estimated receipts tomorrow: Wheat, t8 cars; corn, 80; oats, 76; hogs, 2O.00O head.

Previous to th-W time .the character of the market 'had been mucn me same as that prevailing for long time.. There was a rather notable de mand ror St. Paul, but no greater than consistent with the recejit tactics of the professional operator In supporting some one leading stock for the effect on the rest of the market. The general market became irregular, witn obvious proflt-ts king going on in some or tne stocks which were sirongest yet, or In the immediate na The great mass of securities made no per ceptlble movement either way.

Sellers were not willing to take off much from yesterday s prices, and as a result it was late before the pens were cleared. A good proportion of the offerings this morning consisted of beef steers, and the quality was . exceptionally good, in fact, some of the salesmen considered the qual ity tne Dest toaay ot any aay tnis year. Buyers started in -from the first to pound the market and were bidding fully a dime lower than yesterday, and In some cases more. Sellers, though, beld for steady prices, and it was some time before many cattle changed hands. In some cases buy ers succeeded , In getting cattle as much as a dime lower, whllo in others they paid steady prices. It was an uneven market from start to finish, and sales were made all the way from steady to a dime lower. Cow stuff was in as good demand as ever and sold at fully steady prices. The oetter grades. In particular, commanded fully steady prices, and In some cases sales were made that looked higher. The general -market, though, on good stuff. could probably be best described by calling it active ana ruuy steaay. 1 ne medium grades, and particularly the canners, sold v-ery mean today. Packers would hardly look at tne common Kincis, ann wnen tney did thev would bid about 31.25 for kinds that ordlna-lly would sell for at least $2.25. Thev do not seem to want the t anners, and as a result they will not take them unless they can be bought at an extremely low figure. There was not enough change In the prices paid for hulls, veal calves and stags to be worthy of mention. Blockers and feeders of good quality told freely today at steady prices, as compared with yesterday, but the common kinds, and especially common stockera, were aa much of a drug on the market as ever, and prices were certainly no more nan steady.
