The grain speculatora ware waiting the
fovernment May report which ta issued at
o'clock. The Washington Mkiy num
mary Issued at noon reports th spring
wheat seeding largely finished except In
the, wet lands at the north of North Dakota
and Minnesota. The. early sown In the
southern portion has made good proaress.
The winter wheat has generally Improved
In condition especially in the western and
the mid-Atlantic stales. The Ohio valley
continues poor. Corn planting Is reported
as progressing well under favorable con
ditions except In Nebraska, Kansas, and
Northern Missouri where rain hinders
work. Iowa corn planting Is practically
finished and the work Is earlier than In
several years. Oats early down are promts
Ing In the central valley snd middle At
lantic states, but in the southern Atlantic
and the eastern Gulf atatea where it la
heading the outlook Is poor.
The London Bu.tlst In its summary Is
bearish. It says the fact that America and
Canada are now fourth In wie sources of
?upply and not first seems to make no dif
erence In the face of the liberal Argentine
and Russian shipments nnd the expected
abundance In Australia, Asia and India. It
estimates the exportable surplus In south
ern Australia as 44,000.000 bushels and for
India 4ft.0u0.000. Its summary is generally
favorable, except for Russia and America.
I Jiter cable reports show Russia has Im
proved. BradstreM'a estimate place the wheat
east of the Rockies at a decrease of 12H0,V0
bushels and In Europe and afloat an In
crease of 1.100.000, being a total decrease of
l.la0.0"0 buahels. Corn la given a decrease
of 1.GB1.000 and oats of 1.615.000 bushels.
The local long Interest was bulling the
May wheat this morning and that future
advanced from 0o to 2c, while Chicago
Improved only M,c. The shorts, on the other
band, were plugging the May corn, and by
noon the market had Bagged down from the
opening S3o to 50c. Chicago during the

as Consolidated Gas saved today's stock
market from the smallest aggregate
of transactions for the year. 1 lie con
viction Is growing that the cause of the
stagnation In the stock market Is deeper
lying than any temporary factor and has
to do with the gradual emerging of the
conditions of general contraction in busi
ness and Industry In all directions. An
important phase of this contraction is
the deficient wheat crop In promise. The
dread of a poor showing In the govern
ment report of crop conditions as of May

CATTLE Receipts of cattle this morn
ing were again moderate, being much
smaller than a week ago, as will be seen
from the table of receipts above. Packers,
though, see tiled to be playing for heavy
runa tomorrow and aa a result did not take
hold very freely today. As a general thins.
though, there waa very little change aa
compared with yesterday ao far aa prices
were concerned.
The ateer market could not be quoted
anything more than generally ateady.
Early tn the morning some of the buyer
seemed to want a few handy weignt cattle
and some salesmen thought they got a
shade stronger prices, but after that, the
market was no more than steady p.ud Alow
at that. Undesirable cattle. In fact, vera
hard to sell at as good prices aa were
paid yesterday. Although trading waa not
active at any time tna ugnt receipta soon
brought the market to a close.
The cow market waa also generally
stesdy witn yesterday. Anyirung cnoice
sold without much trouble, but undesirable
grades were none too active. There were
comrjaratlvely few eows and heifers on
sale, though, ao that everything waa dis
posed or at a reasonaDiy eariy nour. man
ners and common cutters were In very
limited demand.
Bulls sold at steadv prices and where
they were not too heavy and of good
quality they were In quite brisk demand.
Veal calves were dull and lower. With
the exception of something strictly fancy
about 86.00 is now me top.
There were only a few stockers and
feeders In the yards and not much change
In the marKet was noticeame. uooa stun
met with fairly liberal demand, but com
mon stuff was dull the same aa it has
been of late. Representative sales:

HOOS There was a moderate run of hogs
here this morrlng. there being aoout m
on sale as aeinsi over 13,0uo a wee ago.
Parkers, though, did not get at all excited,
as Chicago and other markets were only
quoted steady. At this point the markut
was also practically steady, although a big
Improvement In the quality makes the mar
ket appear a little higher on paper. Trad
ing waa not very active, as salesmen tried
to get more money, but, aa packers would
not give It, they Anally haa lo cut loose
and a good clearance waa made about the
middle of the forenoon. Common, light
stuff wss again very hard to dispose of, ss
none of the packers seem to care wnewier
they get that kind or not. The bulk of the
hoge today sold from 34.66 to 84.70. with
choice loads going largely from I4.,u to
84 .76 and as high as 24.7 Vk was paid. The
lighter loads went Horn $4.66 down. Repre

SHEEP There waa a moderate run of
sheep and lambs here asraln this morning
and the quality of the bulk of the offerings
was rather Inferior, tho same as was tho
case yesterday. A few bunches that Juat
suitea buyers sold at about steady prices,
but aside from those the market was very
dull with the feeling weak. Packers com
plain that the mutton market In the east
Is In bad ahape, and for that reason their
requirements at thla time are rather-limited.
Some clipped ewes sold as high aa 34.65. or
the aame as was paid yesterday. Clipped
lambs sold at 36.10, 36.16 and 15.60. At a
late hour there were still quite a few sheep
na limes in nrst hands.
