wera exported, that being the heavleat on

the export thla year would be 10O,nno,000

the price of flour 10 cents. Duluth haa eold
2fi.(l buahela of No. i northern wheat for
Buffalo mills. The primary receipts are

receipts are to he light In a few weeka and
the export demand la good. The caah
handlers profess to expect the cash corn to
go to a premium over the May. Country
roads are bad and the receipts are getting
lighter everywhere, and It Is expected they
will be very small next month. An elevntor
man who has Just come through northern
Mlsaourl and southern Iowa Is quoted aa
saying he mw only about 4f,0f") bushels of
corn in crlba and that feeders were offering
M cents for corn, and that no grain was
being moved out. The primary receipts are
moiO bushels, agalnat 3.noo buahela laat
year, and the shipments are 474.0UO bushels,
against 242,000 bushels laat year.
Home oata handlers are claiming that the
July will sell at a premium over the Mav.
-They say northwestern hedges are being
taken out of May and put into July. Wltn
the Increase In stock more pressure will
t broinrht for selling from the people mho
have May to liquidate. This situation will.
It is believed, depress the May market. It
Is claimed oata aeedlng hua begun In cen

CHICAGO. March 22. Report from Okla
homa and Kanm claiming almost perfect
romlltlon in fall-sown whfat Tiad a weak
ening Influence, on price here today. At
the close wheat for May delivery was oft
c. July la down an even cert. May corn
show a loss of S oats are off MiSe and
provisions are practically unchanged.
The wheat market opened easy, mainly
as a result of excellent weather conditions
throughout the smith west. May was 'o
c lower at $1.15tyl 15'. July waa a shade
lower to a shade higher at 92Va92o. Pit
trarier generally Were Inclined to sell the
July option. A large provision firm was an
active seller of May early In the day aa a
result of which the prlre of that delivery
declined to $1.14V At the same time July
sold off to 9:c. letter on htavy purchases
bv a iPHiilng bull caused July quirklv to
advance to 93c. Msy also rallied, selling up
to $1.15. News ftom the southwest, how
ever, was exceedingly heart h, advices re
garding the new crop showing the condition
lo be nesrly perfect. A report from Okla
homa City claimed the condition of winter
wheat In that territory to be 100 per cent.
Reports from fifty points in Kansas ahowd
an Increased acreage with conditions prac
tically perfect. News of cash markets
also was of a bearish character, especially
from Kansas City, where demand was very
light. The market weakened under the In
fluence of these sdvlces. May declined to
$1 I4i and July to 91c. The close was
near the lowest point of the day with May
at $1.I4H. Final quotations on July were at
91S'&91c. Clearances of wheat and flour
were equal to 17,000 bu. Primary receipts
were 21,30 bu., compared with 404.100 bu.
a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chi
cago reported receipts of 154 cars, agalnat
179 cara last week and 277 cars a year ago.
Lower cablea and larger receipts than ex
pected caused moderate weakness tn the
corn market early today. Later the market
became still weaker in avmpatltv with the
decline in wheat. The Impression pervaded
in the pit that Wall street Interests were
free sellers. May opened unchanged to
lower at 4Hftr4)(Tc, sold off to 4!'e and
closed at HKc. Local receipts . war 243
C". with two of contract grade.
Sentiment in the oat pit waa decidedly
bearish Increased stocks and a letup la
demand for feeding purposes due to milder
weather were the main factors May opened
a shade to Vufcc lower at 31V(j31V,c. sold
off to :1044c and cloaed at 3oie. Local re
ceipts were 137 car.

LITTLE OUTSIDE DEMAND FOR SHARES
Speeelators Sot Prepares! to tarry
Their Contracts for Long
I'erloa Attempt to
laloaa.
NEW YORK. March 22 -Th growing In
dlrterenc of the demand for stocks has
a chilling effect on speculative sentiment,
and the level of prices waa let down con
siderably further today In spite of the Ir
regularity ot the market. Tne fluctuations
were largely due to the activities of the
board room traders of the larger class,
whose position was occasionally shifted in
the progress of maneuvers designed prob
ably to evade an undesirable following.
Thla shifting progress Involved the buying
of stocks now and then, but there waa no
evidence of positive, strength In the mar
ket at any time. The growing conviction
that no aggressive upward movement is
to be looked for in tne immediate futur
prompted considerable throwing over of
securities by holders not prepared to re
tain their contracts through an indefinite
decline.
The entanglement over Venesuelan rela
tiona continued to be the subject of dis
cussion, and while no ground was per
ceived for Immediate aiarm, it wan felt
that the progresa of affairs concerning
various powers In interest offered a deli
cate situation with room for troublesome
developments. The action taken yester
day by the directors of the Corn Produce
company in reducing the dividend on the
preferred stock had a decidedly unfavora
ble influence, especially coupled a. it was
with the pessimistic remarka of th presi
dent of the company on conditions In that
trade. The shutting down of sugar re
ftiieriea was cited aa a parallel to show
that trade might not be undevlatingly
prosperous In all lines. The pervt.tent
heaviness of the United States Steel stocks,
in spite of all the glowing reports of the
enormous demand for Its products, has a
discouraging effect on the advocates of
higher prices. The merely nominal Im
provement Indicated In tne New York
Central net earnings for .the March quar
ter, although compared with a period last
year of extraordinary nDsiaciew 10 uim
portatlon, win not relished. More attm-'
tlon was paid than recently to the appar
ently officially Inspired disclaimers of sorntJ
of the lately prevalent rumors of Intended
dividend Increases, and stocks which have
moved under this influence were notably
heavv. Importance was attached to the
news from Albany as promising the sue
cess of some of the measures of legisla
tion which are feared for their effect on
securities. The foreign news also failed

CATTLE There wus another liberal run
of cattle here today, and aa advices from
other points were rather unfavorable to
th selling Interest, the market was slow,
with the tendency of prices downward.
Trains were rather late in arriving, and
as a result It waa nearly 10 o'clock Dfore
buvers went Into the yards.
The beef ateer market was alow and
weak. Some of the more desirable grades,
which Just struck the fancy of buyers,
sold right around steady, but stslde l'rom
those the general market was 6.10c lower.
Snlesmen did not like the Idea of taking
off that much and consequently trading
was slow and It was late before even the
bulk of the offnrlngs was disposed of.
The cow market was also slow, with the
tendency of prices downward. The same
vs was the case with steers, some of the
kinds that Just suited buyers sold at right
around ateay prices, but aside from those
the market was slow and generally 6l0c
lower. In some cases salesmen thought
that buyers were trying to take off even
more than that.
Bulls, veal culves and stags all felt the
weakness In steers and cows und sola A
trifle lower than they did yesterday.
The demand for the better grades of
stockers and feeders was sufficient to hold
prices steady, but the same as usual, the
common, and particularly the common light
weights, were In limited demand, and In
some cases were a trifle lower than yes
terdav. Most of the country buyers seem
to want cattle of good quality, ao that
common kinds are hard to move. Repre
