The grain markets were exceptionally
dull this morning. New York. Uumth and

Tuofday duterred speculation, 'ihe wheat
feDeculators have tieen srnwtne les e.m.
bullion In sentiment and the jmallness of
tne siocks makes them afraid of tho short
side. 8o the market Is dull from that
reason. Corn weakened under the unusual
riicclpts the Liverpool loss of -.d and the
fine weather. Chicago had ts curs of
rorn. The general opinion of tha trada ls
no new buainess will come in from tha
outside until there Is material dumage to
wneai or a gooa movement or new wheat
so that Chicago and1 other markets may
have storks to trade on. The supplies are
now su iigiu tney admit oi easy manlpula
tion and scare the outsiders.
Minneapolis reports all flour mills closed
down at 8 o'clock this morning and will
not resume until Wednesday. The flour
aemanu continues poor. The millers give
as a reason for not shutting down alto
gether that they are getting a high price
ior nun ieeu anu also nave ample water
power now which they will not have In
June. 8o they say It pays "hem to grind
and store and not to m-Alt until June Th

slight decline, July being off -,Sc at sfd
'ic. Weakness in corn hud a depressing
effect and during the lat hour especially.
After selling off 10 R.iS'&HoiiiC, July closed ut
Sc"iC. May ranged leiween ftio mid 9iWo.

CATTLE There were practically no cattle
on sale today with which to make a test
of the market. For the week receipts have
been Just a trifle smaller than for last
week and as compared with the corres
ponding week of last year there ls a falling
off of about 2,000 head. The demand has
been fully equal to the supply and In fact
has been a little In excess nnd as a result
an active stronger market has been
experienced all the week. ' .
'ihe beef sieer market can best be do
scribed by calling It fully 26c higher than
It was at the close of last week. There
have been a good many cattle of good
quality on sale and packers have taken
hold of them exceptionally well, as high ns
$6.30 having been paid, -file commoner
grades of cattle may not have been quite
as brisk ns the good to choice, but still all
kinds are right around a quarter higher
than they were a week ago, Packers evi
dently have had a good outlet for their
products and each day's offerings have
been bought up in good season. The week
is closing wllh u good, strong undertone
to the trade. Good to choice steers may
be Quoted from 16.U0 to 16.40. fair to rood
$4.70 to 16.00 and the less deslruule grades
irom $4.00 down.
The supply or butcher stack has been
very light ail the week, but owing to the
hlgn prices at which good cows and heifers
huve been selling for some time past, as
compared with the prices paid for steers,
there was not as much Improvement- on
the she stuff. The advance on the bettor
grudes, though, could safely be put at
HKfilie. while canners nnd cutters have
shown practically no Improvement, the de
mand for that class being apparently rather
limited. The same as usual, buyers are
afraid to take hold of the cattle showlntr
any signs of grass, as they never kill Out
satisfactorily this early In the season.
Good to choice cows and heifers may be
quoted from $4.00 to $4.60. fair to good from
$3.00 to $3.90 and. canners and cuitsrs from
11.75 to 13.00.
There has been a fairly good demand
for bulls and prices are, If anything, a
little stronger. Choice grades now sell up
to $4.10 or possibly a little better. Fair to
good sell from &1.60 to (3.90 and the less
desirable grades from 13.60 down. Veal
calves aro just about stead), top grades
bringing $5.25.
The supply of stock cattle has hesn rv
limited all the week and with u fairly good
demand from the country tho market may
be quoted active end strong on all de
sirable grades. Qood to choice cattle sell
from 14.iv to $4.40, fair to good $3.75 to $4.00
and common kinds from K.75 down.
HOGS There was a heavv run here hta
looming for a Saturday, but the demand
irorn packers was liberal and an active
and stronger market resulted. The ad
vance nnounted to about 24c, as compared
with yesterday's general market, aulei
going an tn way rrom steady to 6a
hlKher. Trading was very active, so that
everything was sold at an early hour.
The bulk of the hog-s sold at $4,474 and
$4.60. with the choicer loads largely from
$4,524 to $4.60. The light and common
stuff went from $4.46 down. Triors was
Tactically no quotaDie cnango in the mar
et from start to finish, practically every
thing changing hands In a comparatively
short time.
Today s advance carries the market to
tho high point of the week, making a net
fain over the close of lust week of 610o.
11 fact, prices are at the highest point
reached since May 18. Receipta this week
have not been excessive, ns there Is a
decreaso as compared with last week
amounting to about 9.U00 head, and us com
pared with the same week of last year
the decrease amounts to about 10,000 head.
Prices eased off on Monday and Tuesday,
but sln that time the tendency has
been upwurd, with the demand liberal from
all quarters. Representative sales
