CHICAGO GRtll Wli PROV1MOS9 Featnres of the Trading; and Closing Prices on Board ol Trade. CHICAOO. April H-Fresh reports of favorable growth of fall sown wheat created bearish sentiment In the wheat market here today. At the close wheat for July delivery was down o. May is off lc, corn shows a los of 'uc, oats at So and provisions 6 Weakness In the wheat market developed mn arter the opening. Considerable firm ness, however, was manifested at the start, July being up ,W at Vmw,c May was unchanged, 'to higher at 81.16VU LIT1. The initial strength was due primarily to higher prices at Liverpool, but cold weather, ac companied by snow in the northwest, had considerable Influence. As an offset to un favorable weather conditions In the north west reports from the southwest told of raina In sections of the winter wheat belt where moisture whs greatly needed. An other factor that helped to create bearish sentiment was an increase in snipmenis from Argentina. Soon after the opening a leading long began to sell moderately. Pit traders eagerly followed the lead. The re sult was u general weakening of the mar ket, as trading progressed prices con tinued to decline. Fresh Impetus was given the declining tendency by a sharp brcuk in prices at Minneapolis. Advices regarding the condition of winter wheat were con llhtlng, but those of bearish character seemed to predominate. A St. Louis trade Journal In Its weekly report stated that the condltlonsjtif the crop generally is sati.stac tory and above the average for this time of the year. The May delivery was under moderate selling pressure the entire day, and with little apparent support showed more weakness than distant futures. The closing price for May was at the lowest point of the day, $1.14. July, after selling down to 87c. closed easy at 87c. Clear ances of wheat and flour were equal to 84.3)) bushels. Exports for the week, as shown by Hradstreet's, were 1. 292,0ut bushels. Pri mary receipts were 228.600 bushels, com pared with 212,3 bushels a year ago. Mln neapolls, Duluth and Chicago reported re relpts of 119 cars, against 265 cars last wee and 153 cars a year ago. Liquidation by several local longs cause, weakness In the corn market. The decline in wheat was largely resiionsible for the selling pressure. The market was quit tlrm at the start as a result of small re ceipts, but an easier tone soon developed. Lower prices for cash corn had some In fluence. July opened a shade to cc?(, higher at 4 ' 4Sc, sold oft to 48(i48e and closed at 4n-Sc. Local receipts were 89 cars, with 6 of contract grade. Sentiment In the outs market was bearish on crop predictions of an Increase In move ment. Commission houses were persistent sellers, and tho demand was light. Pit traders were the chief buyers. July opened unchanged to He higher at 30c to 30e, sold down to 3oc and closed at the lowest point of the day. Local receipts were 6ti ' provisions were Inclined to hold fairly steady early in the day, but later conslder iible weakness developed along with the decline In grains. Packers were moderate sellers. At the close July pork was off loc at $13.07. lard was down Be at $7.47 and ribs were SffTtyc lower at $7.32V4''tl7.35.

NEW HIGH MARK FOR GREAT NORTHERN AetlTlty In These Few Specials Caases an Advance ot One to Three Foiota Little Sews to Ac count for Doom. NEW YORK, April 14.-A revival of the Northern Securities settlement excitement resulted in a speculative revel on the Stock exchange which spread pretty generally throughout the list, but the conspicuous fact uoout the day s operations was their enormous congestion 10 the few stocks Immediately a flee ted by the current rumors, especially Union Pacltic, St. Paul, New York Central, and In the curb mar ket Northern Securities Itself. The last named stock bounded up to the neighbor hood' of lho, thus Justifying predictions which have been current among street speculative operators for some time, but without obtaining general credence. The rumors to account for the advance were many and various, and for the most part exceedingly vague. That which was most definitely formulated alleged an In tention to doubt the present volume of Great Northern preferred stock tor pur poses which were very dimly Indicated in the story as It circulated. The capitalisa tion of enormous values discovered In iron ore lands in the company's possession was hinted at. Great Northern preferred closed at 315&330, with no sales, the last sale having been at 322. It was argued that this development would greatly expand the value of the Northern becurlties company about to be distributed under the order of dissolution of the supreme court. As a Urge proportion ot this distribution will fall to the I'nion Paciflc treasury, that stock was held to be entitled to a corre sponding advance, but with the excitement started In the market, this explanation was deemed inadequate and surmise fell buck upon the supposed uses to which the I'nion Pucltle preferred stock is to be put. This line of conjecture led to the recovery In various stocks pointed to as a desired object of acquisition by Union Pacltic, but which have been dropped out of considera tion for a time with the growth ot skepti cism over the stories current. These stories were aa entirely without official authority or admission today as at any timo. The palpable fact, however, was that almost unlimited amounts of the stocks most nearly concerned passed constantly through the market all day and the absorptive power for them seemed Insatiable. The volume of transactions and the movement of prices In the general railroad list was moderate and the extent of the price movement was found on careful scrutiny not to be very wide, but in the industrial department there was an effec tive supplement to the striking movements in the transcontinental group. In this de partment also the most prominent high grade industrials, and especially United States Steel preferred, were Inclined to move narrowly, of industrials of a mlpor class, however, there Is a long list which made advances during the day of all the way rrom l to a or 4 points, une brilliant conditions shown to exist In the Iron and steel trade by the statistics of production nnd consumption have served to give great authority to the Incoming reports of highly prosperous conditions In all departments of trade. The favor shown to the industrial stocks increases accordingly, it Is found easy to affect movements Dy the formation of pools in many of these stocks and it is not unusual for tho rise to be heralded by some such announcement as that "arrange ments have been made for a sharp upward movement" In this or that stock. The movement Is pretty sure to follow. Opera tions of this class, however, do not tend to fortify confidence In the market. The currency movement for the week gave promise of a good cash gain by the banks and offered no obstacle to the main tenance of the speculation. The irregular closing left prices not fur below the best of the day. Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par value, 84,475.000. I nlted States bonds were all unchanged on call.

Total 2,223 7,458 1,165 CATTLE There was quite a liberal run of cattle here this morning for a Friday, and as reports from other points were none too favorable to the selling interests the market was inclined to be a trltle weaker except on the more desirable grades, which sold readily at right around steady prices. The beef steer market was very uneven today, so that there was a wide difference Of opinion as to the condition of the market as compared with yesterday. As a general thing, though, the more diserable grades, or those that wilted buyers, sold very freely at fullv steady prices, but something that was not JiiHt to the liking of buyers or that was not of very good fleah and quality was ncclected to some extent with prices not so ijooii as those paid yesterday and the day before. Such a market, however, would naturally be expected on a Friday following the liberal receipts of the previous days this week, nnd, all things considered, salesmen were well satisfied with the prices received. There were no strictly choice cattle offered today and the top price was not as good as yesterday. The demand for the better grades of cows and heifers was fully equal to the supply, and ns a result the market on that class of stuff wan active and Just nbout steady with yesterday. When It came to the common and medium stuff, however, the market was slow nnd weak, some salesmen, in iaci, called the market considerably lower. It was simplv a case or wnere ouyers atu not want anything but tho good stuff unless they could get It for less money. Good bulls sold at steady prices, with enmmon kinds a little lower. Veal calves showed no quotable change. The market on stocKcrs anu itroeia was elow todav and a little lower owing to the fact that speculators nil have quite a few cattle on hand and consequently did not want to get loaded up with more unless they could get them for considerably less money. Common cattle in particular were hnrd to move and showed the most decline.

That, of course, made buyers rather bearish at this point, and consequently It was a little late before tm vers end sellers got together on prices. When the hogs did begin to change hands it was on a basis of Just a shade lower market, sales going from steady to 2a lower. Trading wis fairly active after the market got In motion, so that most everything was disposed of at a reasonably early hour. The extreme close, though, was rather slow. The bulk of the sales went at 95.26 and 95 27. with a top at 95 .30. The common stuff sold from 96.26 down. Rep resentative sales: No. Av. Sk. Pr. No. Av. Sk.

It could safely be quoted steady, though on anything at all desirable, and one string of clipped wethers sold for 84.96 from the same lot as sold for 24.85 a few days ago. Clipped wethers and yearlings mixed brought 3o.36, which also looked like a good, steady price. For the week there is not a great deal of change in the situation. The better grades are steady, with the common kinds a trine lower. There were no good lambs offered today with which to test the market, but anything at all desirable would undoubtedly have commanded stendy prices. For the week good stuff is steady, with others a little lower.
