CHICAOO. May B. F.xcellent weather conditions for the growth of the hew crop formed the primary cause of a weak wheit market here today. At the close July wheat was off if. Corn and osts are up tc. Provisions are 2V: to 5c hlKher. Sentiment In the wheat pit was bearish and the volume of trading; was smsll. llnlllnnt weather was deridedly a fnrtor in tendine to hokl duvn tirlres. One cause nf dullni'ss was uncertainly surrounding the government crop report which will be Issued next Wednesdsy and which will give the condition and acreage ot winter Knout. The general Impression seemed to be that the report would be of a benrlsh character. At the opening the market was quite stendy and In a fair demand from shorts. July was up a shade. Belling by pit traders soon caused a reaction. July declining to S2c. Poor demand for cash wheat and flour !n outside markets had considerable Influence In forclna down the optional value of wheat In this market. The market closed easy, with July st K!H'ir K3'c Clenrances of wheat and flour were equal to M,3n0 bti. Exports for the week, ns shown by Kradstreets were equal to 1.279,0(0 bu.

Business, however, was light, with trading mostly In small lots. The strength was due principally to the demand for the May option from shorts In the northwest.

The following are the receipts and ship ments yesteraay: NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS Market it Strong and Lostei of Thursday Are More Than Recovered, VOLUME OF BUSINESS SHRINKS Prices Have to Be Did Ip Higher Than Before the Slams te Rt cover an Equal Member of Shares. NEW TORK. May 6. The stock mar ket was free today from the pressure of urgent liquidation which broke yesterday's market and recovered vigorously something more than the losses of the day before. There was a decided shrinkage in the vol ume of business, showing that the bidding up of prices had to be carried further to it-cover a less amount of stocks than was sold yesterday. This constitutes an excel lent showing of the reduced volume of stock oflering for sals' and la an Indication of t -clinical strength in the market and of the relief afforded by- the liquidation so far completed, but there was a very marked falling off In the demand at the higher level of prices, the dullness of tne trading showing a progressive Increase. The in ference Is that the buying was to a large extent forced In the same way that yes terday's selling was. The bear traders w ho followed the decline yesterday with free short sales felt obliged to cover their short contracts In face ot the evidence that more urgent liquidation was completed. Some fears caused yesterday by the signs of weakness In the market or which wero given currency by the Industry of the bears, lost their force today and the re lief thus afforded helped on the rally. There was no Important change In the news bearing on values, but there was a decided change In the temper shown in Its Interpretation. Yesterday's fears of a con flict at the Union Pacific special stock holders meeting over the proposed issue of 3iuu,i00,0i0 of preferred stock were con verted today In hopes of somo extraction at that meeting of specific benefit to stock holders. The street was without news from the meeting up to the closing of the market. The Northwestern and Paclllc slocks were the aggressive leaders of the rebound In prices, aa they had been most acutelv affected bv the preceding drop. The southern group was also notably strong aa they also had suffered more than the average from the violence of the reaction from the excessive speculative advance. Consolidated Gas had the benefit of the failure of the attempt to pass a law rei ducing the price of gas In this city. The effect of the weakness here yesterday had an unsettling Influence In today's foreign market and some action seemed to be given there also to the fears of International friction. The foreign depression was only of slight effect on our opening market and the recovery set in promptly. The esti mates of the week's currency movement Indicated a nominal ghln In cash by the banks. The upward rush of People's Gas at the end was due to the report of the defeat of a gas bill In the Illinois legisla ture. The sharp reaction during the final hour and the recovery to the lirm closing were notable for the exceedingly light dealings on which they were effected. Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value. 32.500.OdO. United States bonds were all un changed on call. The quotations on the New York Stock exchange ranged as follows: Bales. High. Low.wiose. anti-German articles In the British press. PARIS, May 3 Prices on the Hours to. day were weak owing to the unfavorable American advices, but at the closing they had an upward tendency. Russian Imperial 4s were quoted at 8S.10 and' Russian bonds of 1904 at 510.09. Hew York Moaey Market.

WOOL The Commer clal Bulletin will say tomorrow: The wool market Is very strong here, with higher prices, while the west Is feverishly excited. Considerable speculation In second wools has taken place and new territories have moved well at full values. Australian and 6outh American crossbreds sold moderately and the disposition of owners is rather to buy than to sell. A very good business -has been done in pulled wool. The lxmdon sales opened 615 per cent higher and all foreign markets are exceedingly strong. The shipments of wool from Boston to dale from December 29, 1904, according to the same authority, are 88,436,574 pounds, against 70, ,98.633 pounds at the same time last year. The receipts to date are 98,803,142 pounds, against 65,436,138 for the same period last year. L,ornuor, way &. wool-The otrenngs at the wool sales today numbered 11.994 bales. There was keen buying for all sec tions and merinos showed an average ad vance of 74 Per cent above the March eales. Qualities suitable for America often ad vanced 16 per cent. Crossbreds, especially llaht conditioned, were In sellers favor owing to the anxiety of home and American buyers to secure mem. ine sirengtn is attributed to the recent expansion in the consumption In manufacturing centers and to the fact that the direct imports are now going into strong hands. The Increased American demand for fine grades is respon sible for a hardening tendency in coarse crossbreds, although the consumption of the latter is restricted by the dullness in the exports yarn trade.

In spite of the light receipts it was rather late be fore a clearance was made. The market on beef steers could not be quoted better than slow and barely steady. Something that Just struck the luncy of a buver sold at about steady prices, but the nenrrsl run of cattle was much neglected and hard to sell at what looked to be steady prices. In many cases, In (fact. It was Im possible, so thut somo pretty good cattle went for considers biy less money than the same kinds brought yesterday. The com moner tne quality tne harder It was to make a satisfactory sale. There was nothing that could be called strictly choice on sale, so that the market on paper does not seem particularly high. The market on cows and heifers was also very dull and packers apparently did not seem to care whether they got any fresh supplies or not. Some of the choicer bunches sold without a great deal of trouble at steady prices, but the common to me dium grades were extremely hard to dis pose of and r.ilces were a little lower than yesterday. There was a choice bunch of spayed helfera on sale, but they were so much better than anything that has been here of late that there is nothing to com pare them with. Although comparatively tew cows and heifers were on sule It was late in the day before a clearance was made. , Bulls, veal calves and stags were all slow sale, but about s.tauy. There were hardly enough stockers and feeueis here toaay 10 nmke a market. Tne demand from the- country has been nothing i hut receints have been so light this Veek that very little change in the market has been noted from day to day. Repre sentative sales: BEEF STEERS. r the tendency of prices co-nttntied upward. The market here epened fairly active and a nickel higher than yesterday. The popu lar price was 35.S0, with the choicer loads rolng largrlr st 85.324 and ns high as S374 was paid for a prime heavy load weighing 839 pounds. The bulk of the hnge changed hand In good season, but towsrd the close, when some of the late trains began to arrive, packers became rather bearish and the close waa very show and weak. Salesmen thought they ought to get the opening prices for the late arrivals and It was late before a complete clearance was made. Today's advance takes the market well back toward the high point of the season. whlchTwas April 24, when the average cost was a little over 86 35. Aa today's average Is rlsht round 85.80. It is seen thst the market Is within about a nickel of the high point. Representative sales N AT. fn J.. J.. Si.. 7.. 7.. TV. 117. II.. ) . TV. M . l .
