CHICAOO, Jan. 12. Conditions favorable
to rrop development In Russia, as well as
In the Cnlted Stales, made a rather weak
wheat market today. At the close May
wheat was off corn down 'i'Vc and
oats and provisions virtually unchanged.
Following lower prices at laverpool, the
wheat market here was rather weak at
the opening, Msy" being off a shade to
h,nc at l.l'l 17H The weskness of
foreign markets was said to be due to a
report from Odessa to the effect that the
whest crop of southern Russia l In excel
lent conditl' ti. The heavy tall of snow In
the Cnlted Ptates throughout the west and
southwest wit reported aa affording ample
protection for the winter wheat crop of
this country. There has previously been
considerable unxictv as to the possible
damage by cold weather. The bulls., how
ever, found encouragement In the continued
small movement In the northwest. How
much of the falling off in receipts was due
to th extreme cold weather and how much
to the smallness of reserves) was, of course,
a matter of conjecture. For a time there
appeared to he a preponderance of selling
orders In the pit. In consequence piles
ease off a trifle. May declining to l.l':.
The volume of business at no time assumed
any great proportions, scalpers doing mot
of the trading. Later the market sud
denly became quite strong on a fairly ac
tive demand from several prominent com
mlsHli n houses. An assurance from Minne
apolis that the flour mllla there would not
close down waa a possible reason for the
revived demand. On the bulge May sold
tip to 11.17V). During the iat hour of
trading another reaction occurred, the ad
vance in prices bringing out Increased of
fering?. Toward the close the market be
came quite weak, May declining to Sl.lti'i.
Final nuotatlona were at ll.lftvii MG'tc.
Clearancea of wheat and flour were equal
to 42 i bu. Receipts were 515. Ho bu., com
pared with tl.Hi a year ugo. Minneapolis.
Duluth and Chicago reported receipts of
an cars, against us last week nnd 4TZ n
year ago.
F.arly In the session a rather firm under
tone, was manifested In the corn murket,
the bullish Influences being higher cables!
light receipts nnd an Improved cash de
mand. A weak roint in the situation.
however, waa In the continued absence of
short business. Later selling by scalpers
cauaea an easier tone. The weakness of
wheat was a late factor. May opened a
shade to o higher at 44ttr41T4e, sold be
tween 444jo and 44c and closed at 44Vs,c.
Local receipts were 2X2 cars, wlUi three of
contract irade.
The situation in the oata pit showed little
change. Trading was quiet and sentiment
Waa a trifle bearish. May opened unchanged
at SIV. soul between lie and smfcaiS"
and closed at 114c. Local receipts were
w cars.
Provisions Vera Arm early as a result
of higher prices for lings at the vat-da.
Commission houses Were fair buyers of
iaru ana nos. iater some pront-taklng de
veloped and an easier feeling prevailed.
At the close Mav nork was off 2Uc nt

Estimated reeelpta for tomorrow: Wheat,
28 cars; corn, 1!U cars; oats, 66 cars; hogs,

NEW YORK. Jan. 12.-9elllng prcloml-
natea ovtr liuylng In toxlays stock opera
. Hons, but t lie transac tions were no less
I strictly profeslonal than they have been
ever since New Yeat s. The traders seemed
I prompted to sell mnlnly by their d.sappo;nt-
ment aver the Pithily of previous attempts
to get price liisher. Some of the day s de
velopments offered a nominal cause for t lie
depression, but there was litt'.e evidence of
real liquidation, the traders simply endeav
oring to anticipate what the ai Hon would
be of real holders of stocks. There Is un
doubtedly considerable unsettlement of
mind amongst speculators over '.he varying
and contradictory reports from Washington
regarding the legislative program. The
weight of opinion today was deiinitely on
the side of aggressive insistence by the
president upon measures to regulate rail
road freight rates and corporation affairs,
with tho question of tariff revision rele
gated to the background.
The financial district showed Its usual
seiisitlven.'.s! to the agitation of these sub
jects. The action taken by the Pennsyl
vania, directors towards a $a'i,OU0,(U bond
Issue had an adverse effect on bullish senti
ment, although pome such action has been
pretty clearly expressed. The announce
ment, however, seemed to serve as a re
minder of the large volume of pn table cap
ital Issues by the railroad companies which
are to be faced in the not distant future. It
hue been urged by the advocates of active
speculation that the great Interest which
have these Issues in view would be anxious
to foster an active stock m irket to assist
In floating them. But that did not prevent
a characteristic reversal of the point of
view In today's trading to the apprehen
sion that the pnwpect of new offerings
would Btagnute the demand for securities
already In the market Some of the stocks
winch have had the bendlt recently of ru
mors of Increased dividends were notable
sufferers In today's reaction. Baltimore &
Ohio was the cotisplcuoim example and was
the leader of the decline. Illinois Central
was similarly affected. The movement of
these Ktocks had a large sympathetic ef
fect on the whole list.
On the whole, activity was reported for
time loans for the longer period ami the
further advance In foreign exchunge offered
no prospect of any cessation of the out
ward movement of gold, although discounts
In London were appreciably easier. London
was a seller In this market, however, on
balance, aa was purls in the London mar
ket, in spite of the reported succers of the
Russian loan In Berlin. Incidents In the
banking world, such as police court pro
ceedlnga In Buffalo In connection with a
bank failure and tho causeless run on an
Institution with many customers amongst
aliens In the East Side section In this city,
were factors of some discouragement to the
speculative temper. The late resumption of

HOOB There was quite a liberal run
of hogs in sight this morning, but the
market was In good shape. At this point
opening prices were right around 5c
higher than yesterday morning or 2yff5c
higher than yesterday's general murket.
Trading waa fal'ly active on the early
arrivals nnd most of them were -liHposed
of In good seaaon. The bulk of the sales
went from $4.6" to $4.85, the most popular
price being $4.6t'i. Some of the choicer
load? sold at 4.(S7'4 and some of trie com
moner hogs and light htuff hud to no under
4.60.
The latter part of the market was slow
and weak, as packers took advantage of
the late arrival of trains to bear the mar
ket. The late hogs sold largely at $4.57H
autl $4.fi0. unless they were common, when
they had to sell for less thnn that. At
noon there were still some hogs unsold
and one or two trains reported had not
arrived. Representative sales:

was fully equal to the supply and an
active aiid verv satisfactory market wn
experienced. liuyers were all out early
and practically everything changed hand
as rapidly as offered. The tiuallty of th
sheep was hot particularly choice, so that
the sales, on paper, do not look very high.
Considering the quality, bowwver. the prices
paid were just about steady with yester
day. Soma fair wi thers sold fur 5.S. fair
cartings for $5.75 and fair ewes for $4.7.1.
The demand for lambs was even mora
I rlhk than for hecp and prices paid today
wore safely 15ft'J5c higher than those In
force at the close of last week. As high
as $7.10 whs paid for western lambs of
only fair quality and some natives brought
$7. 35. The demand for Inmloi has been in
excess of the fcupply alt the week.

modity. Scarcely an Item of news has come tip for the trade to consiiler lately that did not. denote Ktreugth aud sound
ness in our domestic situation.. Uet-eipts In the Northwest are down to a figure where milling retiulremenla necessi

T.Vi.tNNi bushels against 7,HM),iaa) bushels ft year ago and ll.snU"0 bushels in UK);!, and says the decrease lu country
houses last wo-k was around .HUX' bushels nnd thut without reinforcemeuls to runners deliveries thorp is likely to

authority estimates thut the country cannot supply the mills with more than tJS.OMMKH) bushels lo August 1st and that
the requirements for this time during 1U04 of 81.00O.00o bushels, must be curtailed to the extent of dlfferencf, 4r
OttO.OiMj bushels. Crop experts uow go still further with reference to our probable further supplies and concludes that
wo have only pi,io,(No bushels avuilable for export for six mouths and for reserves .inly 1st, llif.
Already the inquiry for wheat ia being felt keenly. The lowest grades have advanced 2 to 10 cents lu tie last-
ten days nnd No. 4 spring wheat is i:rt: n nusnei nigner tunn a niontn ago. j nere con tie no uustamng tntj worth or

tho lsn-sibiliiy of mtchiug either will depend upon how urgeut are the. orders for flour during the spring months. If
