tiKiaeia for t-tn May and July, but oner
lues were very light. l,ater aa a result
01 predictions of warmer westher the Ju.y
option easea on temporarily, the price de
clining to iTM2c. 1 here wss a uun k re-i-ovety.
however, from the slight s-tljork,
the strength of May being ins rajiying
force. Aovlt-es from Minneapoll and Kan
sas City reported an active demand at
higher prtcea for wheat for milling pur
poses, in sympathy with the strength of
these markets the May option here Jd
aneed to Joe. while July sold up to ftc.
The market cloaed strong with prices al
most at the highest point of the day, final
quotations on July being at S?c May
closed at sV7c. Total deliveries today on
May contracts were estimated at about
4ni.00 bushels. Clearance of wheat and
flour were equal' to U.OuO bushels. Ifl
mary receipts were 374.000 bushels, compare
with 244. bushels a year ago. Minne
apolis, Duluth and Chicago reported re
ceipts of 2f3 cars, against 3M cars last
week and 162 cars a year ago.
Sentiment in the corn pit was decidedly
bullish. The feature of trading was aa
active demand for the Msjr option. Offering
of all deliveries were light. Small pri
mary receipts had a strengthening Influ
ence, the total movement today averaging
30 to 30 per cent below that of a year ago.
Largo clearances were an. her bullish fac
tor. July opened Sc lower to V? higher
at 46Sc to 46V?, sold up to 4c and closed
at 4Ac. Local reoeints were 110 cara,
with one of contract grade.
Scattered liquidation caueed some weak
ness in the oata market at the outset, but
the strength of com soon created an im
proved demand, resulting in a firm under
tone. There waa considerable changing
from May to the July option. July opened
unchanged to Sc lower at 2SV: to Hc
aold up to 2S".'SHc and closed at c.
Local receipts were 72 cars.
Profit taking in pork weakened the en
tire provision market, notwithstanding
higher prices for live hogs. The volume
of trading was curtailed by a fear that
the teamsters- strike would spread to the
slock vards. At the close July pork was
off 7Vc at tllOTH- Lard, was down Jc
Ribs were 7H&lc lower at 17.05.
Estimated recelpta for tomorrow: heat,

Maturaay n.ght tor additional margina be
cauae of the rapid declines of lasu week,
and return orders to sell out or fa Hurts to
respond to cans for additions induced vety
large pressure to sell when the market
opened. London was taking a holiday, but
notwithstanding this a notable feature of
the early trading waa the heavy demand
for foreign account here, which waa said to
come from various quarters In Europe.
After tne urgent demand from tne snorts
had been Mallstled the market became much
quieter and showed a disposition to await
developments. Reports ot net ewrnlng of
railroads ror March showed some im
portant Increases, such as fur I'nion Pa
cific. M per cent; St. Paul, 12 per cent;
Illinois Central. 1 per cent, and Colorado
at Southern, no less than 143 per cent.
The March figurea of traffic of some of
the great systems are reported to have
reached record nguree for any month. I he
usual weekly reviews bv railroad traffic
officials today admit a considerable shrink
age from the March level, although general
satisfaction is still profess d with the
business offerings. 1 he belief In general
prosperity seems unabated, but confidence
is recognised as a prime necessity In the
maintenance of prosperity, and there la
antne question to be entertained whether
the events which have shaken speculative
confidence in Wall street have left the full
confldeno of the business world at large
unimpaired, but today's sharp recovery
was well maintained and the clomn was
steady near the best.

PHILADELPHIA. May l.-There were
wide fluctuations In United Gat Improve
ment company stock today, following the
opening on the local exchange. The at or
closed at 120 on Saturday and opened
today at 117. During the first ten min
utes of trading the shares fell rapidly to
ill snd then rose steadily to 117, at which
point the slock became quiet. Other k.-al
stocks were but little Influenced by the
fluctuations in United Gas. Tne unsettled
condltiona of the shares of this company
is due 10 the pending deal between the
United Ges Improvement' company and
the city of Philadelphia, whereby the com
pany !s endeavoring to lease the gas worka
from the city for a period of seven yeara
for the sum of $24,000,000. There has been
agitation by certain Philadelphia news
papers against the consummation if Ike
lease and this is believed to have weak
ened the stock

CATTLE There was a light run of cattle
in sight this morning at ail points, but
there was no Improvement In prices, as
the demand did not seem to be particu
larly urgent. Both buyers and sellers are
apparently In a waiting attitude to see
which way the market is going to go.
Buyers were In hopes thst receipts would
be liberal this mornlns. and the fact that
thev were not shows thst the feeders have
confidence In the market. Trading was
rather; slow at this point,-hoi stlrl a good
clearance was hiadc at, a reasonably early
hour.
The proportion of corn-fed eteers to the
total receipts this morning was very small
and the quality of those that did arrive
waa only fair, nothing strictly choice being
offered. The market was slow, but right
around steady on anything desirable. In
some esses salesmen thought thev could
not do quite as well as they did at the. close
of last week, but that is always the case
when buyers are Indifferent and the mar
ket slow. A large proportion of the re
ceipts consisted of western hsy-fed steers.
Part of them were fat enough for killers,
while quite a few had to go for feeders.
The prices paid did not show much change
from those in force the latter part of last
week.
The market on cows and heifers was also
rmher slow, hut rri"a hel.i tist :ii.cj'
steady. Buyers did not take hold with any
life, but the cattle kept moving toward
the scales, and as receipts were light, the
bulk of them were soon disposed of. Com
mon atuff was hard to dispose of. a the
demand for that class seemed to be very
limited.
Bulls, veal calves and stags all sold in
Iust about the same notches they did the
itter part of last week.
The msrset on stocners ano teeners was
practically steady. The demand wss in
fairly good shape and the desirable grades
changed hands without much trouble. As
mentioned above. Quite a few of the west
ern hay-feds sold for more money to feed
ers than packers, would give, but of course
the feeders picked out those that showed
quality. Common stuff was slow, the same
as usual, nut mere wss 110 parncuiar
