The iroed Is turning its intention to
September wheat and trying lu rigure out
whether or not It In a good thing i" short
ell. In 1h Lelter deal In ih year lh:'S ihe
May wheat reached 11.86, the July wheal
wan 11.24 and thu September !jc. In the
Armour deal during; 1SW2 (ho Hept.'mher

new atyi and Me for old style. In
the Dates deal the Muy reached S11SV
or 4c at one time, and flic July ii fi-w
lays Bgo was il.irflt. The September is
M'V". before In the lM and 1!K4 deals the
September went back Into, the lH or the
7t. 'Ihe question now to be decided Is,
will the September go back into tho His
this year by full? Short selling In that
case would he prolltable. It Ih pointed out
h a poKslbility that this) year will see a
larger acreage of spring wheat in the
I lined Htates and Canaila than ever be
fore. The Muy wheat mav advance and
-considerable opinion makes weight for July
being an old -rop future. The question Is,
can any advance In May and July bring the
September over a dollar?
The May wheat was Sl.17'4 Monday for
high point and the highest lodav was He
below that point. The low mark wan c
below. The July was at one time lK,c be
low Monday and the (September wan alno
weak. Liverpool cloned with a decline of

t 42c, for export via the gulf. Shipper
were also reported buying 2M.00O bushels
In Nebraska, Iowa and Illinois' and taking
advantage of the low rates. . These rumors
re exaggerated, but there Is a good corn
business here, which does not appear on
the floor of the exchange. Armour sold

In Chicago. It Is surmised these sales
are made against country purchases. The

NEW HIGH LEVEL OF PRICES REACHED
Ranaor That There Hill Be o legis
lation on rials Hates for This
session (lives Strength to
Railroad 1. 1st.
NEW YORK, Feb. 7. The uneven and
Intermittent rise In prices as cuiitlnued
today on the stock exchange. There were
more railroad stocks Included in the move
ment than was the case yesterday, but
the relative prominence of the Industrial
and specialties was still great. The rail
rosd stocks which were acllve and strung
were not of first rat importance in ih. Ir
representative capacity or In the piopur
th.ns of the market fur them. Many of
the most conspicuous favorites In the mar
ket were slugKish end comparatively tug
lected, especially after the opening ad
vance, which was In sympathy wlm the
London market. The strength abroad was
attributed to rumors of peace negotiations,
which were of less Influence here, so that
the higher prices for Am-rlcnn stocks sent
1 1 cm 1 ondon, h le they we,e well letalnrd
were noi extended In the esse ot some u
the leaders. Yesterday's rumors of a com
prehensive merger of local traction stocss
dropped Into the background today, with
the natural result of some realising In
those stocks. But one of the notable feat
ures of the rotation of rumors which have
Induced the spotty rise in prices Is the
manner in which Ihe advances are re
tained after the rumors have spent their
force. The Inference suggested by this
aotlon of the market Is that the rumors
of deals are suggested bv the movement
In stocks, rather than being the cause ot
them. While the stocks affected fall Into
neglect, they yield comparatively little.
As a consequence the average level of
prices la constantly rising. Today It was
nt the highest In many months, althougn
many stocks are slightly below the max
imum. Specific causes for the buying of
Individual stocks were larking, but it In
probable thnt a large general effect was
produced by the report that the Interstate
and foreign commerce committed of the
senate was to sit during the summer re
cess to Investigate the railroad rate mak
ing question. This was adopted as a prac
tical announcement that definitive legisla
tion was to be postponed beyond the pres
ent session of congress.
Tbe advances In southern Iron stocks
were due to vague rumors of a project of
a consolidation of southern Iron Compa
nies. The United States Steel stocks were
almost Immovable for the greater part of
the session. The special strength of Nor
folk & Western and of Atchison In the
railroad list were unaccounted for. The
common carriers were helped bv the cen
sus bureau's final report of cotton ginned
up to January 18. Indicating a crop of
close to 13,000,i)n0 bales. The rates of ex
port grain, which were re-established
after being cut, were out again. The enor
mous diversion of corn traffic from the
Atlantic ports to the gulf already effected
Is sufficient notice of the serious character
of this contest. The rates for sterling- ex
change yielded to a slight extent, but In
quiries Indicated that practically all of the

c ATT T. IS- Quite a liberal run of cattle
was reported this morning, but the trains
were so late In arriving that It was the
middle of tiie forenoon before buyers went
Into the yards, ana it was wen along to
ward noon before mucn ousiness
transacted.
The beef steer market was slow, with the
tendency of prices downward. Some of
the choicer grades sold at prices that did
not look a great deal different from yes
terdav, but when it came to the general
run of cattle the market was slow, with
hida arenerallv 6c to 10c lower. Salesmen
all thought they ought to get steady prices
and as a result trading was slow and .a
good many cattle were carried over until
afternoon.
The demand for cows and heifers seemed
to be about equal to tho supply and after
the market opened trading was quite ac
tive, with prices Just about steady. In
fact some of the kinds that Just happened
to suit buyers sold at a little stronger
prices, but as a general thing Ihe market
could best be described by calling It active
and steady.
Bulls, veal calves ana stags soia in prac
tically the same notches they have for
some time past. .
The market on stockera and feeder was
In falrlv Rood shape, as there were not
many Included In the offerings, and, as
speculators were all willing to take a few.
prices held up In very satisfactory manner.
Oooa neavy came, 11 unywiiiig. were a
trifle stronger, with others just aouut
steady. Representative sales:

HOUS There was u liberal run of hogs
in sight at all points this morning and
packers made use of the opportunity to
break the market. The steady upward
movement of the. market all last week was
not entirely to their liking, and as a result
they made an effort to take off quite a slice
of the advance and succeeded lairly well.
The general market could he quoted 5&10c
lower and trading was not very active at
the decline. Light- hg unless very choice
i.eeined to suffer the greatest loss. They
sold largely from down, though
som ratner IlKhl weights of good quality
sold up to 34.75. HtiK tiers and mixed hogs
wont from 84.724 to 34.77V4 and heavies
from $4- to 34.86, with a top at 34 to. Only
a few of the packers and some of the ship
pers were lu the market at the opening,
so It was rather late In the day before a
great deal of business was transacted.
The latter end of the market was worse
Instead of better tliun the opening and
the late sales were mostly 10c lower and in
extreme cases lightweights sold as much
as 10c to 16c lower. Home of Ihe trains
did not arrive until afteroon. so that It
was late In the day before anything like a
c!iraucr was made. Kepreseulallve sales:

8I1KKP Receipts of sheep were quite
liberal this morning snd buyers were In
clined to be a little bearish. The demand,
though, was quite large, so that the more
desirable Rraues met with ready snle nt
Kteady prices. The common and part fat
kinds were what felt Ihe effects of the
bearish tactics and the market on these
grades could best be described by callliiK
It slow, with the feeling weak. The bulk
of the receipts seemed to be mnde up of
wethers and ycarlinfts, and quite a large
proportion of them could not be claxsed
better than fair, which, of course, made
the market slow.
Good lambs -were In active demand nt
fully steady prices and as high as $7.35 was
paid. Common kinds were a little sdow.
the same as was the caHe with sheep.
While It waft late before Ihe hulk of the
offerings was disposed of. still moat of tho
desirable grades were sold In fairly good
season, considering the slow arrival of
trains.
