( Special Tclcsratn to tlie BEK. ] The wheat market held very steady to-day. Scalpers still had the wheat pit to themselves this morning , very much to their own surprise. The talk and thought of manipulation Is so persistent that gosslpeis are unhappy unless the clique houses are doing something on one or tlio other side of the innikct continually. The price was steady at exactly the price of the late session fiatuiday night , although a little under the tegular close of last week. Tlio week really Is likely to depend largely on statistics made Titthcseaboaid. Iho bulls have plainly al tered their tactics and do not propose to bull- do/.c an advance. Tills Is looked upon as a Sign of strength by tlio general crowd , and Indicating that margins cut no liguro with tlio tincc or four big syndicates which hold long wheat. If tlie bull hopes of big clearances and rapid home consumption are realized , the advance In price will come without any unpopular manipulation , and tlie unloading process will be easy and natural. The olllclal announcement of the visible supply iigures , showing thedccrcusc In wheat to bo 1,100,000 bushels , came so near the early estimates that no effect at all was pioduced on the market. Jt wain day of exceptional dullness , but at the same time of rather exceptional Hticngth , May wheat kept all day at 8Ic or el.so was a very small traction above It. Iho raiiL'O was actually within % c. With as liltlo trading M there was , If the strength had not been consider- tie , thorn would have been a decline. HIP lair export business at New Vork , however (19 ( boat loads up to 1 o'clock ) , checked any r < endency to a decline. May corn kept be tween 30c and 39jfc all tlio morning. Tim receipts were large , 053 cars , and larger nro expected to-motiow. But while the big ar rivals kept the prices trom going up , thu j knowledge that these big receipts are the 10- i-Bult of extraoidinary and temporary circum- ' "fitances the new railroad law keep the price from breaking much. Provisions are dull. There was considerable pork settled t 821. Ribs for May touched 87.57J-J , but at 1 o'clock closed at 87.75. May lard sold at > S7.27K. hut at tlio regular close was 87.35.

Supplies were considerably laiger than last Slonday , cattle showing about 3,000 In crease , hogs 2,000 , and sheep fully 4,000 Increase. Cattle buyers were naturally anxious to get back a lar o slice of the recent advance , and hog buyers were also decidedly bearish. The sheep trade , however , was strong. Receipts to day were comparatively heavy. Buyers wanted cattle , but they wanted them at con siderably reduced prices. Uuyers held olT , bidding very low , and salesmen wore also rather deliberate , knowing that nothing would be gained by unseemly haste to sell. Prices were 15@25c lower than Friday last , and were 25@30c lower than the prices of Wednesday last , when the market was most excited and prices were the highest Of course sales were made above and below these rates , but these figures fairly represent the average decline. At Kansas City the run was small to-day , but prices were lOQISc lower. At London offerings of American cattle were extremely light and values were nominally steady.

Kggs went down to 10c In the carlleirpait of the week. Dressed poultry is gradually disap pearing from the market anil live poultry is taking its place.

There Is hardly any country butter coming in that can Degraded as strictly choice. The receipts of the poorer grades are liberal and the market well sup plied. The demand is for choice butter and poor butter will not sell very readily and only when the oettcr grades rannot bo ob tained. The warm weather has a tendency to bring out the poor qualities in the butter and on that account poor butter docs not sell as well now as when tlie weather Is cold. An occasional packauo of fancy butter sell * at better prices than those quoted below : Choice country , IW iTc ; fair to good , 12@14c ; com mon , o lOc , Eoos The egg market Is lower than it week ago on account of the decline In the eastern and western nmiUets. The receipts have been liberal all the week and stocks have been moving freely. The local demand has been very good and the shippers have taken all the surplus stock. In spite of the heavy receipts the market has been kept cleared up and In good condition. The first of the week stocks were moving at 10X@llc , but the decline In other markets foiceu tlio market down here and the prevailing price Is now lOc. CHKESF.

The warm weather Is lessening the demand somewhat for dressed poultry and at tlie same time Is Increasing the demand for live poultry. Dressed chickens are selling mostly at lOc with an occasional sale of extrc stock at a little more. Turkeys and ducks have been selling at about the same price as chickens. A few small , fat turkeys have sold at lie. LIVE POULTRY The warm weather has created some demand for live poultry and the demand will naturally Increase as the weather becomes warmer. There have been a few chickens In which sold readily at Si75@3.W ) doecn . A few that were not extra choice per want at S2.SO. There were live turkeys In this week which sold at Cc per Ib.
