CHICAGO, April 8-An advance of 3tc
in i he price oi may option itave stienaiii
to tne entile wneat maraet here louaiy.
An iiigent ouituiia from snorts was i

to continued favoraniu weatner loi.uiilons.
rusi was leported as far south aa iexas.
but temperatures recorded were not low
enough to suggest any injury to the grow
ing wheat ciop. Conditions In tne north
west uiso were most lavuraole lor seed
ing. Mtate leports irom onlo, Kentucsy
and Missouri were received and ail w. it
exiremuiy tjearlsn, showing a marked Im
provement in thu condition ot tan sown
wheat. I noer ordinary circumstances the
Influences would have been suttlclent to
create extreme weakness in t lie market.
Manipulation of May by tne null clique,
however, was enough ot a lactor to coun
terbalance all these beurish Influences. As
the session progressed the price of May
mounted higher and higher, until It had
reached Jl.l, V Onerttigs were light and
the entire volume or- trading in that option
was comparatively small, btreugth ot May
gradually starteu a covering movement la
July, which later developed to quite an
active demand. The only item of bullish
teuor In the day's news was an estimate
of tho amount of wheat slid iu farmers'
bands in Ohio. Official figures place the
amount at 2,i5O,OU0 bushels compared with
4,6.,uw bushels a year ago. A bulge in
corn was a late bull factor In wheat.
Realising In May caused some reaction Just
before tne close, but the July option closed
at the highest point at HSc. Final quota
tions on .M iy were 11.17. Clearances of
wheat and flour were equal to ina.bju bush
els. Primary receipts were 27,taO bushels
compared with t&3,3ou bushels a year ago.
Minneapolis, Oulutli and Chicago reported
receipts of lbH cars against 240 cars lust
week and 241 cars a year ago.
The feature of trading In the corn mar
ket was an active covering of May and a
consequent advance of IV in the price of
that delivery. There was little in the
way ot news that had any Immediate hear
ing on the action of the market, although
en bits were a trifle higher. Trading In
May corn revealed a congested condition,
offerings being wholly Inadequate to supply
tho wants of some of the larger shorts.
Strength of May had a bullish effect on
the more distant deliveries. July opened
unchanged at 47Hc, sold off to 47Vi7'c
and then steadily advanced to 48V4V
where It closed. May ranged between 47'4U'
4Ho and closed at 4V a net gain of
lic. Local receipts were 1X6 cars.
Oats were firm. The volume of trading
waa light and the market was governed
almost solely by the strength in corn. July
opened a shade lower to a shade higher
at 29H&29V:. sold up to 40Viu and closed at
8oc. Local receipts were 1N6 cars.
Provisions showed considerable strength
and business aws of liberal proportions.
An advance of liftlac in the price of live
bogs caused a scramble by shorts to cover
at the outset and, as packers also were
supporting- the market, the bulls bad their
own way. Local , longs sold moderately.
The market closed at the highest point of
the day with July pork up 20c at $13.17.
Lard was up 10c at $7.46, and ribs were 16c
higher at 3..40.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
29 cars; corn. 450 cars; outs, 160 cars; hogs,
2710 head.

NEW YORK. April 6 The Intention to
Increase the preferred atock of t.'nlon Pa
cing by $ioomi,i00 was not knowsi to the
Wall street public until this morning and
was a general surprise. This Incident
formed the central Hlnt of interest In the
day's stock market. Union Pacific has been
the subject of gossip and surmise for many
months during the course of Its remarkable
rise, but none of the numerous conjectures
regarding It pointed to the measure an
nounced this morning. This fact In Itself
caused a doubt that a large part of the re
ports which have circulated regarding this
stock were III Informed. The effect on the
common stock was unfavorable, as was not
unnatural In view of the prior privilege of
the preferred stock, now to be doubled In
amount to dividends to the extent of 4 per
cent. The common stock was offered
heavily both for domestic and foreign ac
count. It was vigorously supported, how
ever, all day. Brokers before the opening
were making offers to take all the stock
that any one would sell and the same brok
ers were diligent buyers up to the level of
last night. The support was then relaxed
ugaln, but renewed at any periods of acute
weakness. Officials of the company de
clined to add anything to the official cir
cular ns to the specific purposes for which
the proceeds nf the stocks are to bo used or
as to the proposed time for Issuing it. As
sertions were freely made, however, among
the speculators In the stock that the project
had to do with the proposed combination of
Union Pacific with New York Central and
Chicago & Northwestern. It was pointed
out that President Harrlman In maintain
ing the wisdom of seeking financing capital
requirements through the issue of stock
rather than through the creation of fixed
Interest bearing obligations had Injected
Into the official circular the remark "espe
cially such ns arise In connection with the
acquisition of stocks of other companies.
This was adduced to Indicate that a merger
project was In view, but Wall street had
formed the opinion that the supposed mer
ger was to Ik? accomplished by the ex
change of bonds of a holding company for
existing securities, which would not in
volve a great outlay of cash. The prospect
of a $100,000,000 block of new stock, there
fore, came ns a shock to sentiment and
emphaslied the effect of the huge volume
of Issues which Is being added to con
stantly from many sources.
The determined support of Union Pacific
was supplemented by notable upward
movements In a number of special stocks,
so that the depressing effect of the Union
Pacific announcement waa modified to a
considerable extent. Tho railroad list, the
southern group and Canadian Pacific were
very strong. The only news to account for
the movement was the suggestion, based on
earnings and reports of possible dividend
Increases. American Smelting headed an
other strong group. Including the Lead
stocks und some others in affiliated metal
trades. 'Hie United States Steel stocks
were sluggish most of the day, but they
moved up late to higher prices than were
touched yesterday und helped to sustain
the general list by sympathy. A miscel
laneous list of Industrial specialties showed
considerable strength. The railroad list as
a whole, however, was held buck. Sterling
exchange was strong again In spite of the
great ease of money in foreign centers.
This was attributed to the selling Of stocks
here for foreign account. In some of t he
very active stocks the net changes for the
day proved to be small and tne market
closed Irregular.
Bonds were easy. Total Sales, par value,
$4,320,000. Untied States bonds were all Un
changed on call. ,

HOt 18 There wss a light run of hogs here
today and at all ether points. 11 11.1 as u
result the tendency of prices was upward.
At the opening of the market at this point
trades were made on a basis of n 7c to
loc advance. It was noticeable, however,
that buyers were picking out the better
grades, such as both packers und shippers
were anxious for. and such kinds sold
right around a dime higher. On the gen
eral run of hogs they were only offering
an advance of about 7c, and as salesmen
thought they ought to have more money,
the market came to a standstill and It
was some time before much more business
was transacted. The hulk of the early
sales went from tR.27 to 6.30, with a top
at 15.35.
The situation did not improve any rs
the morning advanced, and as a result
most of the salesmen Anally cut loose at
the prices offered. Quite a fea- hogs,
hiiwevrr, were carried over until afternoon.
The late sales were very largely at 15.27.

The cow market was also active and fully
a unite higher on desirable grades. The
calipers and common cutters, though, did
not show so much improvement, so thai
the range of prices is getting wider every

Hulls, veal calves and stags also sold at
good, strong prices, as compared with yes
terday, owing to the upward movement of
steers and c.iws.
The demand for stockers and feeders waa
in good shape today, and as a result an
active and strong market was experienced
on anything nt all desirable. Common
stuff was neglected, more or less, but still

much better advantage than they did a

SHEEP There was a big run of sheep
and lambs reported this morning, but
thirty-seven cars wero billed through to
Chicago, Buffalo and Jersey City, so that
in reality there were only about fifteen
cars on sale. That number was none too
large to meet the requlrments of the trade
ami the market on sheep could safely be
quoted active and strong, some sales In
tact being a little higher. Ewes sold up
to $5.60 and wethers and yearlings mixed
brought $6.00.
There was no particular change In the
lamb market, trading being fairly uctlvo
on good stuff with prices steady. The
commoner kinds were a little slow, but
about steady. Some pretty good Colorodos
sold for $7.30.
