a lut gain fit ?,. It would seem from
thl ahowmg the Wall street bunch still
controls tlm situation. No now trade are
roming into the market and the comnils

their rumirmer out of It. The primary

iiit- com iimrKet this morning wns on an
even keel, lUirliig last week the corn ad
vanced ?c, the May touching 6ho. from
where If broke l'c, closing- the week with
a net advance of inc. There la a
strong bull interest opposed to the scalpers.
The bulla have been up from 4SUc. The
ecnlpers are bearish on the outside, spec
ula lor who thoy claim hnve not coma
Into the market on the buying side. All
bullish news they claim haa bean dis
counted by, the ndvance of 6c from the
low point. The exports for the week wero
3.K4Q,(ioi bushel. Ilie seaboard today took
1:H.X nt t'hli-ago for export and New York
' report' d twenty-five loads worked for ex
port todmj'j. Liverpool has advanced .
Vha cash business hum not followed the
future market, as the bulla had hoped.
America It the only country now export
ing in any volume, the Argentina having
practically dropped out. Thla causes the
ocean nnssnge figures to drop for the week
from Jo.oofl.uoo to below 12,00n,vm bushels,
nnd the excess over Inst yenr from 10.000.000
t.i X(O0 bushels. Everybody- Is looking
to the west to see what tha situation is
to become. The acceptances have been
falling off rapidly from all the western
states, Nebraska nnd other states have
sold a great deal of corn to be delivered
before the rates go In, April 1. and are
slow to make any more contracts.

Prices an Board ef Trade.
CHICAGO, March 20,-UberaJ primary
receipta caused many realising ssle in
Msy wheat here today. As a result tha
May option at the close waa off V- July
la down StSSc. Corn showed a gain of
He. Oats are unchanged. Provisions are
up 2,ctil21,c.
Weakness in the wheat market developed
soon after the opening. 1'nder the Influ
ence of bulllrh weekly statistics the market
In general opened quite firm. July being up
Sft'tc, at MTffttflc. Mav waa unchanged
to He, lower, at 81.lfi4Sl.16S- Owing to a
decrease of 1.300.0) buahela In the world's
shipments for the week, compared with
those of the corresponding week a year
ago, prices In foreign grade markets
showed gains. The decrease in the world s
movement waa the main reason for the
Initial firmness here. Commission housea
were fairly active buyers of the future de
liveries. The May option, however, waa
under considerable selling pressure, a num
ber of prominent longs being reported ac
tive on the selling side of the market. One
reasen given tor the desire to unload May
was an Increase In receints northwest, ar
rivals at Minneapolis and Duluth being
larger than on either the corresponding
day laat week or a year ago. Later tho
selling became more general when figures
showing the total primary receipts were
posted on the bulletin bosrrts. The total
movement today in the I'nlted States was
nearly lon.ooo bushels In excess of what It
was a year ago. The showing on prlmsry
receipts was a hard blow to the theory
of depleted reserves and was largely re
snnnslhle for the weak undertone of tha
market. After selling at 9H'c, shortly after
tne opening, tne juiy delivery roiioweu
May In a downward course. The lowest
point for May was reached at 11.144. July
sold off to mkMic. During the last half of
the aesslon the market received some sup
port from the strength of cash grain, but
the demand was not urgent. The market
closed rather weak, with May at II. MS.
July closed at 2r,f21c. Clearances of
wheat and flour were equal to 25.5no.OnO
bushels. The amount in passage increasea
84.000 bushels, while the visible supply de
creased 1.151,000 buahela. Primary receipt
were W4U00 bushels, compared with 71X 200
buahela a year ago. Minneapolis, minim
and Chicago reported reeelpta of W7 cars,
against MH cars last week and 575 cars
a year ago.
The corn market was firm from start to
finish. At the opening the market waa
Influenced by smaller receipts than esti
mated, arrivals today hetng nearly ion cars
less than expected. Ijite In the day a
report of twenty-five boatloads taken for
export gave additional support. A feature
of trading was the reported purchaae of
2,000,000 buahels by a prominent commission
house. May opened HQc to S'S'V' higher,
at 49H&49Hc sold between 48Sif4Rc and
49V4c, and closed at 49Hiifi49l4c. Local re
ceipts were 864 cars, with five of contract
grade.
Sentiment In the oats pit was Inclined
to bearlahness, owing to liberal receipts.
A desire to take advantage of the low
freight rate waa the cause of the Isrger
movement. May opened unchanged nt ao,
sold between 81'fi31i'&Sl7c, and closed at
81e. Local receipts were 840 cars.
Provlaiona were Arm on amaller receipts
of live hogs. Shorts were good buyers. Of
ferings were comparatively light. At the
close May pork was up 10-312HC higher at
12 97H5 13.00. Lard and ribs were each up
2U436C at 87-150)7. 17H and Ifi.OTVs.OO.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
52 cars; corn, 533 cars; oats, 295 cars; hog.

NEW YORK. March 20.-The effects were
perceptible In today's stock market of eome
nenevoient supervision wnlch had the ei
fect ef discouraging aggreaslon by thebear
party. The buying which checked the de
cline, however, hesltsted to follow prices
when they turned upwards and the specu
lative operators who attempted to puph
the advance found themselves In scanty
company. The result was a period of dull
ness In the trading and a narrowing in
the fluctuationa, prices showing a tendency
to settle to about last week's closing.
The impression was produced of an ef
fort to hold the present situation on an
even keel while awaiting the solution of
some of the doubtful factors In the out
look. The party of reaction waa somewhat
aggressive In the early part of the day
until checked by the measures of support
In the market. With the reaction checked,
some of the old rumors of deals showed
renewed vitality, notably that alleging a
plan for a holding company for the an
derbllt properties and for the combination
of New York Central. Northwestern and
Union Pacific. The Northern Securities
case also ahowed a remnant of Its strong
hold on speculative aentlment when tho
intimation was circulated that the supreme
court waa likely to conclude the case by
issuing Its mandate today for the carrying
out of the decision. The renewed signs of
depression shortlv after noon were clearly
due to the news of the adjournment of the
court over the rrcess without issuing Its
mandate. About the same time there ap
peared official disclaimers of the New York
Central rumors also pointing out -the ab
sence of directors necessary to secure a
quorum of the board. Such disclaimers
have often been lasued In the mldrt of the
most excited periods of the late rise with
out attracting the slightest attention.
Their greater effort today waa an Index of
the subdued spirit of the speculation.
Attention converged on the money mar
ket owing to the low atate of the bank
reserves and the expected growth of an
Interior demand for currency. The extreme
activity In all llnea of business In Itself
promises to Increase this demand, and any
material Inroad on money supplies would
be expected to affect unfavorably the stock
market. There was no evidence of a lark
of funda today, although rates were well
maintained. Of general news the condi
tions reported from all quarters were bril
liant. The tone of reviews of traffic condi-
tlnni V... rfflllrn.il officials VHA fsirlV Cn-
thtislaattc, the only complaint being of a
shortage of cars with which to meet the
extrsordlnary business- offering. Stocks of
merchandise are reported low owing to
former healtatlon about reordering, and or
ders are reported to be coming In now In
such volume as to promise a glut of rail
road traffic for some time to come. Sug
gestions were put out of an early payment
of accrued dividends of Republic Steel pre
ferred and that stock made a spurt of
rarrylng Tennessee Coal with it In sym
pathy. Some renewed credence was given,
therefore, to the rtory of the meraer or
southern Iron companies. The railroad
shipment stocks were In demand. Intima
tions of a newly found value for Canadian
Taclflc lands t.v reason of oil dl''0iy"r'es
caused an excled rise In that stock arid
contributed w1tn the movement In the
southern Iron stocks to l" '."f

CATTLE There wag a much amal'.er run
of cattle In eight, this morning tnan was
ii. nnticniHteit ami with anout the
utual aited i.ertiind the market at lids ptiini
ruled active ana Higher un uvslrable grades
ot killers. Buyers were all out early and
It did not take long to au'pune 01 imv
tlcaily everything on sale.
About the usual proportion of the offer
ings consisted of beei steers, but as all
ih.. mcitrri seemed to be anxious for sup
plies, there were apparently not enough to
go around. Buyers were in the yards at an
earlv hour nnd ns competition was keen
anything at all desirable sold without d i
flculty at prlcef around a dime higher
than the same kind sold for tho latter pare
of last week. Interior grades, of course,
in limited ilemund nnd did not snow
as much Improvement as the better grades,
but still cn 1liuc sum t t ,U-U, " 1 ,,..,,
prices. Owing to the sctlve aemund and
limited offerings an early clearance was
made. ..... '
The cow marital was aiso acuve. w,,
prices ranging wrong to a dime higher.
The same aa with steers, the greatest im
provement was on the better grades. Tne
proportion of cow stuff to the total re
ceipts was not large and consequently it
tOOK only a itw muiiim i ijm.iin
change hands. From tne way Duyers
acted some of them were unable to get as
manv cattle as they wanted.
Bulls, veal calves ana siags an "io
good, strong prlecB as compared with last
week's close.
The demand fo-. heavy feeders of good
otialltv waa again brisK ana sucn aincis
sold without trouble at good, steady prices.
Quite a few common and light cattle were
offered, however, and such kinds were neg
lected end In some caaee- quite a nine
lower. The commoner the quality the
harder It was to make a satisfactory sale.

mal demand the market ruled active and
higher. I'rovlalons were alrao higher, which
had a bullish effect upon the market. At
this point trading began at an esrly hour,
with prices Just about 6'610c higher than on

In sight was disposed of. The lightweights

slid mixed. M.orVflS.laUj. and heavies from
86.12H to 5&. There was no particular

SHEEP There was a lighter run of sheep
and lambs here this morning than was gen
erally anticipated and the quality of what
did arrive waa rather common. Buyers,
though, all seemed to be anxious for a few
fresh Supplies and as a result they took
hold quite freely and everything that would
do to kill was disposed of In good season.
The general market on sheep could safely
be quoted strong to a dime higher than at
the close of last week. Some fair yearlinga
brought 80.26, wethers 15.76 and some fair
ewes 85.30.
It could not be said that a fair test of the
lamb market was made, as the quality of
the offerings was too common. For the
kinds offered the prices paid were Just about
steady and us high as $0 90 was paid for
Just fair Fluff.
