CHICAOO, Marrh 18.-Kxcellent cash
demand In tha northwest caused a strong
close In the wheat market here today.
Mar being tip IHc and July. IHc May
corn Is up 1(j1V4jc Oats show a gain of
Ho. Provisions are practically unchanged.
Kxtrema nervousness marked trading In
the wheat pit at the opening. Mav was
2So lower to c higher at l.1.12- and
July waa a shade to VSc higher at lVk
Mc. Tha wide fluctuations In May were
due to a rumor that the Illinois Ware
house commission would declare No. 2
Oregon red wheat to be deliverable on
contracts here, l'neertalnty aa to tha renl
position of the Wall street crowd In the
May deal also had much to do with the
unsettled feeling. Actual trading In the
May option, however, was of small vol
ants, atop loss orders being the principal
feature. The July delivery showed con
siderable firmness, a decreased movement
in tha northwest being mainly responsible
for tha comparative strength of that
option. On the sharp break In May shorts
covered moderately and the price soon re
gained a large part of the Initial loss. The
Best demand, however, waa for July. As
trading progressed the demand became
mora urgent, resulting In decided strength.
Reports from Minneapolis of large sales
of cash wheat hsd a stimulating effect
nn apeculative trading here. Primary re
ceipts also were small. May advanced to
ll.ll4 and July to asWc. Tha market
closed almost at the highest point of the
day with May at ti ll and July at 93f04tac..
Clearances of wheat and flour were equal
to 27.100 bushels. The amount on passage
increased 2,118,000 bushels and the visible
supply decreased 471.0OO bushels. Primary
receipts were 858,600 bushels compared with
.. 000 bushels a year ago. Minneapolis.
Duiuth and Chicago reported receipts of
618 cars against 664 cars laat week and 641
cars a year ago.
From atart to finish the corn market
waa active and strong. A feature of trad
ing waa heavy purchases by the leader
of the bull crowd. Large clearances, light
acceptances from the country and higher
cablea were factors contributing to the
strength. May opened WS'Hc higher at
4x4thmS4jc, sold up to 40Hc and closed at
4SKaH9Vc. Local reoelpta were 870 cars with
t cars of contract grade.
Strength of corn waa tha main factor In
tha oats market. A heavy tone prevailed
at the start as tha result of liberal local
receipts, but with tha bulge In corn, the
market became quite strong. Shorts were
tha best buyers. Helling was aeattered.
May -opened unchanged to Hc'nlKher at
81W&31SC, sold between SlSWc and 3Pc
and nosed at S11c. Local receipts were
4N8 cars. '
Provisions were a trifle easier early, but
later regained the loss In sympathy with
strength of grains. The volume of busi
ness was small, there being scarcely
enough trading in lard and ribs to estab
lish quotations. At the close May pork
was up t4c at 112.65. ' 1-ard waa un
changed at M.V7V4. Ribs were up a shade
at Ki.wycK.S2V4.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
AO cars; corn, 408 cars; oats, 29a cars; hogs,
27,000 head.

was in accordance with this expectation.
Too heavy sei.lng to tske pronts which
met tms rise wss strictly accoroing to
tabllsned precedent. It was the suutequeat
tendency of the market lor which expert
encea operators wstched with keen atten
tion to estimate the tone. This later ten
dency connrmed the persisting strength
whicn underlies the stock market and of
fered a tresh surprise lo the absorptive
power nf the speculation and the unlim
ited confidence with which buying follows
prices to higher flights.
The umial weekly reviews of trafflo con
ditions by railroad officials served aa
atrong corroboration of the confidence
which Is felt In business conditions. A
very free movement of all grades of trsfflo.
and especlslly of steel and iron products
and of higher grades of merchandise, were
marked features of the movement and were
died aa ground for the faith expressed by
railroad officials of very prosperous con
ditions for an Indefinite period. Improved
weather conditions are helping out the
operating departments and facilitating the
movement of freight, although the car atip
ply la still insufficient to accommodate atlof
the business offered. Large raliroad earn
ings are to be looked for In consequence
In the showing of expected Incoming re
ports. The determined ease of the money market
la the most important fostering influence
on the speculation. The heavy volume of
bank clearings, which witnessed the trade
activity In the country; continued pur
chases of Dew railroad bond Issues by
banking houses and the active demand for
money for speculation are without any Im
pression on ths money market. The coun
try's domestlo export for February showed
a growth In corn exports sufficient to over
come the falling off In wheat and flour,
leaving the low price of cotton alone re
sponsible for the decline from last year'a
level. The very large diversion of this
port traffic to gulf ports whs also a feature
of the report which was calculated to help
on the strength of the southwestern rail
roads. The speculation still reflected the
force of the supposition adopted last week
that a policy of more liberal dividend dis
bursements on subsidiary railroad storks
dominated by great systems Is In contem
plation. The buoyancy In the Vandcrbllt and
Pennsylvania groups was a direct outcome
of this conjectural development. Buying of
stocks for foreign account was a helpful
factor, although early advices were- lens
sanguine of the approach of peace than
was the case lait week. Intimations of a
more hopeful tenor on this subject Were
not generally known in the latter reac
tionary temper of the market. The confi
dence engendered by the strong elements In
the general business and financial situation
are undoubtedly the sustaining factors In
the market and the ground for the disre
gard by the speculative element of the
constant exhortation toward caution and
toward restriction of buying which cornea
from a large element of conservative com
mission houses In the Wall street district.
Warninga of thla character, based on the
groat rise which haa already occurred in
stocks and the present high level of prices,
seem to have little force In face Of the un
clouded prospect for business and Indus
trial activity. Frequent digestion of profits
by the board room operators Is the most
notable effect of the cautionary advice
plentiful In the street. The profit taking,
which was constant today, made a coiusid
erable Inroad on the market during the
afternoon and the subsequent rally did' not
recover all that was yielded, but the clos
ing was generally strong and active.

CATTLE There waa quite a liberal run
of cattle In sight this morning. Chicago
having 31.000 head, where the market was
quoted lower. Owing to the unfavorable re
ports from other points, together with the
fairly liberal receipts, at this point local
packers were Inclined to be rather bearish
and trading was slow.
The snow storm In this section of the
country rather delayed the arrival -of trains
this morning so that steer buyers were slots'
In starting out, and when they did go into
the yards their bids as a rule were a little
lower. Something that just happened to
suit them mav not have been much of any
lower than the same kinds brought last
week, but the general market can best be
described by calling It rather slow and weak
to a dime lower. It waa late before a clear
ance was made.
The cow market waa alao slow, with the
tendency of prices downward. The same
aa with steers, the choice bunches were
perhsps right around steady with the close
of last week, but the general run of cows
and helferi were weak to a dime lower.
Ruyera seerried to want what was on Bala,
but owing to the break In prices at other
points they felt that they should get their
supplies for less money.
The market on bulls, veal calvaa and
stags was s trifle weak.
There were quite a number of Blockers
and feeders on sale, but the demand for
anything at all good was sufficient to hold
prices fully steady. As high as 14.65 wss
paid for 0 bunch Of choice feeders. The
common and particularly the common light
weight cattle were slow and weak. Rep
resentative aales:

HOQS Tliaee waa a moderate run ef
hoga here toeay even for a Monday, but
Chicago waa quoted dull and 6c tower, so
that piioee eased off here also. Trading
waa rather alow et the decline, aa packers
oia not teas noia witn any lire, ani r
sldea that salesman as a rule were asking
a little more money thsn peckers would
give. The hoga, though, kepi moving to
ward the sos lee, so thst It waa not long
before tha bulk of the offerings waa dis
posed ot. There ware a goo) manv light
weights Included In the receipts and that
makes the market sppear worse on paper
aa coti pared with Saturday than It really
la. The lighter weights went largely from
84.60 down, butchers and mixed 84.80 o
14 86.' and heavies mostly from KM to tI DO.
These prices were weak to 6c lower thsn
Saturday, and the etc of the market waa
not so good as the opening, so that the
freneral market Is right around a nickel
ower. Owing to the weak close It wss
rather late before a clearance waa mad.

SHEEP Thre waa a liberal run of sheep
and lamba reported this morning, receipts
amounting to about 12.600, Of this number,
though, quite a liberal percentage con-
aisled of lamba, which were billed through.
The demand for sheep seemed to bo
fully equal to the supply and the market
on anything at all desirable waa
fairly active and steadv. Some sale In
fact looked a little stronger. The bulk
of the desirable sheen changed hands In
good season, As high as 40 36 was paid
for pretty good ewes, 85.70 for Mexican
wethera, 86.00 for Mexican we.hers and
yearlings mixed, and 66.26 for yearlings. ,
The demand for lamba waa again rather
limited, tha same as It has been for some
time psst, snd the market could best be
described by celling It slow and weak.
Aa high aa 17.00 wss paid for fair lamba.
