The report la more bearish thun had been i xpecteu, but its effect on the July wheat nan very small, largely iiecau.se tne inly ing operntlona of Valentine and a lew other, who began two or three day i.g to buy the Juiy and sell the September lor a straddle. The May ha continued ita downward course, but the report ia not considered to have mmh effect on that congested market. The May bcf. re noon range.) 4.1 1 ween the high and low polnta of II.14 and tl.lSVj. against II. Iti and 11.14', for Monday. This menus that the May la off nearly 10c from the high point of the crop and hna lot almost all It gained in the recent rallv. Paris closed irom unchanged to 10c highet. Antwerp remained unchanged and Liverpool cloned from Vo to V down. The July before noon reached the high and low points of t7,o nnd 8V. against 874o and tic for Monday. The market nt noon toduv waa '; above the cloae Moinlav night, during I he session Valentine bought 7o. aH bu. July and aold the September wheat. This course waa taken by others ard gave tin July market ronolderahi strength In the face of thy report. The new crop, whlla it I perhaps two weeka carlv. cannot get In for July delivery In full amount, so that with tlai present low reserve stocks it is figured that thrTe will not be cny too much wheat in Julv for delivery. Wltr. September it ia different. Professor Rruner of the University has Hiinounced that examination made bv him show the chrysalis of the Hessian fly well preserved and hatching. The condition la comparatively uniform over the South I'latte eountry and forbodes misfortune It nothing happens to destroy the fly.

A decrease both In primary receipts and In the world's visible supply had a strengthening effect on the wheat market here todsv. At the close Julv whest was up S''; May Is up 4c Corn shows s gsln of S'&4c Oats are up 44c. Provisions are unchanged to 240 higher. The strength In the wheat market devel opd during the last half of the session. At the opening the genersl sentiment was rather bearish as a result of the govern ment crop report showing winter wheat to be In excellent condition. According to the government figures the average condition of fall sown wheat on April I was 91.8, against 7 5 April 1, 1904. The action of the market, however, demonstrated quite plainly that the report had been generally discounted. July opened 4fVc lower at t,fiSi;4r. May was off 4iSc at t.V& 1 14V Commission house had moderate offerings, but there was no great selling pressure. On the contrary shorts bought quite freely upon the Initial declines. As a result prices soon rallied. The May deliv ery was practlcallv deserted, the bulk of trading being In July and September. Dur ing the last half of the session the demand for July became quite pronounced. A fea ture of trading was buying of July and selling of September. Rome commission houses were Inclined to favor this stvle of trade, the theory being that any change In the price of July crop prospects might easily advance the price of Julv. and at the same time disturb very little the statu of the more distant delivery. A decrease of 2.500.000 bushels In the world visible supply compared with an Increase of 1.719. (. bushels a year ago had considerable Influence on late trading. An additional bullish factor was a falling off In primary receipts. Prices In consequence advanced steadily during the last hour. July- selling up to 87e Just before the close. Final quo tations on Julv were at 874c After selling off to J1.134 May rallied to J1.144. closing at the highest point of the day. Clearances of wheat and flour were etual to 13.100 bushels. Primary receipt were l!i.7w bush els, compared with IS1.800 bushels a year ago. Minneapolis. Duluth and Chicago re ported rerc'pt. 1 of 167 cars, against 2J9 cars last week and 154 cars a year ago. Sentiment In the corn pit was quite bull ish throughout the entire session. Compar atively small primary receipts and an im proved demand for corn for feeding pur poses were tne principal cause of the strength. July opened unchanged to 4c ' iKher at 47!fi44c, sold up to 484a484e and closed at the highest point of th day. laical receipt were ;42 cars, with 26 of con tract grade. The oats market wa Influenced m. Itily by the firmness of corn, but decreased re ceipts had some effect. Trading was dull and of small volume. July opened a shade higher at 2S,c. sold between 294c and 294c and closed at 297c Local receip'j were 87 ca ra. Provisions were firm a a result of small receipt of hogs. The market received fair support from local packers. Selling was scattered. At the close July pork and lard were each up 24c at J13.074ai3.l0 and J7.424 $7.45 respectively. Ribs were unchanged at 17.35. Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat, 21 cars; corn, 211 cars; oats, 34 cars; hogs, SO.000 head.

At Chicago, however, there were only about 4,ouO and at Kansas City 9.00o head, so that the total number in signt could not be con sidered excessive. Considering the heavy receipt here today the market on beef steers held up In very satisfactory manner. The domano was ap putently of libiral proportions and the bet ter grades sold without much trouble at just about yesterday a price. In some cases salesmen thought tney could not do quite as well aa they did yesterday, but lu the majority of cases the cnange In the prices paid for the choicer buncnes was too small to be worthy of much attention. When It came to the commoner kinds, how ever, the market was not so sctlvc, aa the liberal receipts gave buyer an opportunity to discriminate against the less desirable gradea and consequently the market on euch kind wa a trifle lower and In ome case sale were made aa much as a dime lower. The bulk of the offerings was dis posed of in fairly good season, hut owing to the liberal receipts It wa sime time be fore a clearance was made. The demand for the better grades of cow and hellers seemed to be In good shape and in fact was fully equal to (he supply, so that trading was active on those kind, with prices eteady with yesterday. The common and medium claa of cows, how ever, were not so active and It wa hard to get steady prices for them, some sales men calling them 6010c lower. Good buns were steady, others a trifle lower. Veal calve did not show much change. Strictly choice etockers and feeder were about steady and aa high as 4.90 was paid for heavy, fleshy feeder of good quality. Cattle lacking in quality were slow sale and in a good many Instance had to go for a little less money than the same kind brought yesterday. Representative sales: BEEF STEERS. No. A. Pr. No. Ar. Pr.

The demand here from PBckcrs wa In good shape and as favorable report were received from other points the mni-ket ooened mostlv 2V-fri.Sc higher, the greatest advance being on the better gradow. Common hog or nil welgtits were neg lected and no more than yc higher. Trad ing was fairlv active, particularly on the good hog, and the bulk of the offerings was soon disposed of. Toward the close, however, after packers hd their more urgent orders filled the market slowed down with part of the advance lost. The bulk of the hog went from Jo ZTli to 15.80 with a top at J5.35. The common and light tu(T sold from Jfi 25 down. Toward the close packer were bidding J6.27'4j for most every thing and a salesmen wanted the early price it was Inte before a clearance was made. The situation grew worse instead of bet ter a the dav advanced and several loads were carried over until afternoon, for which packers were offering only about ateady prices as compared with yesterday. o that on the extreme close practically nil of the advance was lost.
