April 13 -Claims of damage to winter wheat brought out an active de. nnind today for the July delivery and led to a strong tone n all trailing on "chingc. At the close July wheat wan up iic. May w heat Is tip l'p. corn shnmK a gain of Sc. oats ( and provisions 2H'"'i7Vc. Notwithstanding comparative weakness at Liverpool sentiment in the wheat market here was bullish from the start. Initial oootatlons on July were up tfjic at s7Sc May wan unchanged at $1 15H Trading n largely In the July delivery, the uneei. taitity surrounding the May option being an effectual obstacle to any considerable deal ings In thct month. Shorts and commission houses wire the best buyers The principal source of strength was constantly Increns ln apprehension regarding the real condi tion of the winter wheat crop. Thnt this fear wa not without foundation received apparent confirmation later In the day. when numerous advices from various pnrts of the country were received telling of de terioration In the condition of the growing crop. One report from Kort Worth. Tex claimed that In several counties the wheat plant Is showing nignn of rust snd that on account of excessive rains the damage will probably be still further augmented. Dam age by lack of moisture was the gist of numerous reports said to emnnate from different jmlnts In Nebraska. Hesnlan flies also were said to tie causing damage In that state. In addition to the bullish advices from crops. Minneapolis reported an excel lent demand for cash wheat. This helped to restrict offerings In the Chicago market. Demand for Julv continued active here throughout the entire dav. the price of that delivery advancing nteadlly. A little de mand for Mav forced up the price of that option to $1 17'. hut R reaction occurred al most ImmedlHtelv. Just before the close Julv sobl at HV Final ((notations were at Mi.c. Mav closed at $l.lf.. clearances of wheat and flour were equal to .n0 bushels. Prlmarv receipts were 3.W.900 bushels, com pared with 242.100 bushels a year ago. Min neapolis. Duluth and Chicago reported re ceipts of 223 cars, against 239 cars lost week and I.T7 cars a year ago. Continued small receipts formed the basin of a firm tone in the corn market. Strength of wheat was nn additional bullish In fluence. The volume of trading, however, Whs of small proportions. July opened un changed to 'c higher at 4i4c to 48V up to Hc and closed at 4XVd4ftSiC. Local receipt were 92 cars, with 9 of contract grade. Strength of other grains wan the main factor In the oats pit, although small re ceipts exerted some bullish Influence. Pit traders were fairly active buyers and out siders also bought freely. July opened un changed to a shade higher at 30c to 3UW Oo'sC sold up to aO'V'&WiHc and closed at SO-c. Ixical receipts were 42 earn. Provisions showed considerable strength despite a decline In the price of live hogs. A review showing small stocks of lard at ull the principal packing centers outside of Chicago was one of the thief hull factors. Much of the demand came from Influential quarters At the close July pork was up 7Si faloc at $13. lard was up 74c at $7.52' and ribs were 2Vf5c higher at $7.40.

NEW YORK. April 13. -At any time to day the stock muiKet would have been pronounced spotty and Irregular and It is only by a survey of the day's trading as a whole that the amount of strength man ifested is properly discerned This Is be cause of tne system of rotation emplnved by the active operators In conducting their transactions, tne demand shiftli.g con stantly trorn one to another stock and from one portion of the list to another. While picked stocks were advancing, the general list was either held back or forced down wards by the pressure of the protlt-taklng sales, wnlrh went hand In hand with the buying of xpeclnl stocks, it was not until late in the dav that anv clearly defined tendency developed In the market. In the, early dealings there was consider able, disappointment cauned to the profes sional element by the halt in the advance of those stocks which made the buoyant outburst at the closing last night. I'nlted States Steel preferred. Cnlon Pacific and Amalgamated Copper were notable exam ple. It as characteristic of the market also that alter advances had proceeded for a time the stock thus affected would come to a pause while others were brought for ward. This process kept the traders con stantly confused In attempting to follow dlflerent movements or to determine the general trend of the market. The confusion of miml led to a suspicion of the market, which was quite stubbornly held. In spite of the gradual spread of strength through different portions of the llt. In the late trading, stocks which had been conspicu ous iiigcards early n the dn v were taken up in their turn and advanced in con sonance with the movements elsewhere. The resumption of the aggressive advance in Cnlon Pacific had as much to do as any thing with the decision of the trend of the market. The manner In which this stock Is supported In spite of the doubts engendered regarding the flood of rumors concerning It and the failure of disturb ing rumors of various kinds to weaken the market effectually- has had the effect of Intimidating the bears and reassuring sentiment. It Is said that stocks are easv to sell and that any attempt at accumula tion discloses a small floating supply. This condition whs generally attributed to the great strengih of the general situation In which renewed confidence is caused by the extraordinary conditions In the Iron and steel trade disclosed by the statistics for March. But this Influence was fortified by r ports affecting special properties. Thus rleadlng's striking movement today was fostered by rumors that the stock Is to be put on a 4 per cent dividend basis. Stories of a comprehensive combination of great corporate Interests in tho copper, smelting and lead Industries helped the efforts of pools In the stdeks affected to advance their prices. The Northern Securities settlement again emerged Into prominence with the vague Intimation that next week with the Issue of mandate of the supreme court for the distribution of the company's assets the great merger protects which have been waiting on that event will culminate. Some strength In wheat on cold weather reports had less effect on stocks, because of the protection thus afforded to the conductors of the wheat deal, which for safety Is a matter for solicitude In the stock market. The increase disclosed by the March ex ports of domestic products was a helpful Influence, owing to the supply of foreign exchange thus Implied. The constant shift ing of the demand developed a large num ber of gains as the day progressed and there was a considerable expansion in the volume of the market. A movement to take protltB carried prices back before the close, but they came up again nnd the Irregular closing was not far below the top level. Bond." weree Irregular.

IHHIK-There was a liberal run of hog in slgnt this mirrnu g. and as Chicago was quoted slow and 24u5c lower, just about I lie same conditions pi availed at this point. Al the opening, owing to a brisk demand from both packers and snippet g for some choice hghl weights, a few saics were made at about Meady prices, but aside trotn those the Reueral 'naiKei was 2il-3o lower, the greatest decline being on the heavies, particularly if they were lack ing In quality. Trading wne not very act ive and after the more desirable loads had changed hands the feeling was weaker, the late sales being largely at $5.25 and $5,274. The bulk or all Ihe hogs went front $5 25 10 $6.3(1. with a top at $0,324. As will be seen from tho wiles below, there was a wide difference in the weights of the top loads and this Is the tlrst time in many months that hogs weighing only 177 pounds Total receipts lJvj 13o 13 The disposition of the day's receipts was as follows, each buyer purchasing the num ber of heud indicated: Buyer.

Moth Chicago and Kanus City wero quoted 6c to loc lower and an a result tne tendency was downward at this point, but Will the more desirable grades sold to about as good advantage us they did yes terday. The market on beef steers could be quoted steady on the better grades, while the commoner kinds were weak to a dime lower. Packers, aa well as shippers, seemed to be anxious for Mipplles, so that the cut tle soon began to move toward the scales, and the bulk of the better grades wits soon disposed of. Owing to the liberal receipts, however, it was a little late before all the plain tattle were out of first hands. There were quite a few good cattle here today, sales being made at $6 30. $6.40 and $6.50. The latter l. as high os any entile have sold here so far this seuson. The mutket 011 cows and heifers was In much tho same condition as the trade on steers. The better grades sold at right around steat'y prices1, while the common and medium grades were neglected to some, extent and salesmen were quoting them a shade lower, or weak to a dime lower. Trading was active on the better grades, but the commoner cattle charged bauds gradually and it was a little late before they were all disposed of. There was no particular change notice abl" in tho prices pa'd for bulls, veal calve.n and stags. If there was any change at all It was a little weaker feeling on the com moner grades. Quite a few (.lookers and feeders were In cluded In the receipts this morning, and as the demand from the country the last few davs ha." Ixep none too brisk, the market today was a little low. with sales going from weak to 11 dime lower. The greatest decline w:s on the commoner grades, hm the reeling on even tne good cattle weak Representative sales: BEEF STEERB. sold at the top ol the market. Representa tlve sales: No. At. Sk.
