ISpeclal Telegram to tlio UKK. ] Last nlclit , on the curb , the feol- ln | { In wheat was so very strong that the crowd , iintlur Ilutcliln.ton's lead , \vcro pay- fc9tf(3B'Jj ; ( c for June , and 88l , SS3 fc for July wheat This morning they sold a cent lower. Some of the old heads remarked that the curb was seldom so strong that the open- IniC the next morning was weak , yet the nlarm was so general that last night there was wry little realizing. The local rains and showery condition generally Increased the number of realizers at the opening this morning. When It was .seen that the clique was not In the pit this morning , there was a rush to sell by tlie smaller tallere , and great haste to short the market by the big bears. The receipts of wheat 410 cars , n very large liare of which came In over the Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul and Chicago & North * western railroads bore out apparently the prediction that the recent rail cut on the big ( rangers was going to bring a great deal of northwest wheat hero at once. At Site , how ever , the Juno option was pegged. There was Just about as much bull news as over for Ihu outside. From Now Orleans 1(53,000 ( bushels of wheat cleared tor France yesterday. At New York an Immense export business was going on , which promised as big results as yesterday's shipments from Minneapolis , only 07,000 bushels made It look as It the talk of Io00,0oo bushels starting from there this week was a big blutT. Then the estimates on to-monow's receipts put the wheat car lots at 17ft , a big fall i ni : off Irom to-day. Now York was lull of sensational stories about the Chicago cage deal , but representatives hurc seem to be taking things comparatively comfortably. July declined tobTJtfc. . August opened at W yc , sold to MXe , and down to H-Ufc , The leading futures closed the morning session from Xc to ; < lower than yesterday. Corn was again weak.

AFrp.it.vooN SESSION The wheat market was rained savagely on the afternoon board , June selling ; down to 87\'c ; and July to Hie. Juno closed at 8"Kc and July at bG/c The excitement occasioned by the raid was heightened by arrangement of the machinery of the "indicator , " which made It appear that the market had broken He In thirty sec onds. For once the crowd was too much for the clique , and took the market awav from It. Corn was easy ; June , ! Wjfc bid ; July , 40c : August 4U4'c bid. Oats were easier ; May about B5Jfc ; Juno. !

F1NANOIAU NKW VOIIK , May 24 , [ Special Telegram I to the Ur.K.I STOCKS The stock market 1 was active to-day and from the opening the course of prices was In favor ot belne bear ish. The severe raid of yesterday made buy ers cautious and served to frighten a good many timid holders tuto selling. St. Paul & Duluth again electrified sellers with a sharp advance , but after a gain of 3 per cent It quickly dropped back to the openlne price. The feature of the day , however , was heavy and there was a continued selling of long stock. Vanderbllt'i and ( rangers were of fered so freely thtt the bulls made no at. tempt to oppose the downward tide. North western broke 1 per cent , and the report was that a good many people , who have been Identified with the long side heretofore , were telling oat Caiumwk was reported to ha > been a largo seller of Cake Shore , and In fact allot the largo bpeiators were repreiented ni favoring a drop In the market Connor , Cnuld's broker , was a large seller , and he claimed that he was going out ot the market for a while. There was nothing new about rate cutting from the west , but the situation was regarded as critical and not much hope was entertained that the managers at their Thursday's meeting would be able to com promise matters. The latest London prices were all olT X to 1 per cent , exercising a de cidedly weakening Influence on Vandcrbllt's and the Trunk line stocks. At noon the market was soft and the feeling very bearish , sales to noon bring 118,000 shares. During the afternoon the market dragged heavily , nearly everything sagging off more or less. The news from the west was more than ever bearish , the tradio manager of the Durllne- ton A Northern being quoted as saying that on June 1 that road would reduce the rates an all classes ot business between Chicago and St. Paul 40 per cent At the close the market was weak at a slight reaction from the lowest point of the day. Thu total sales were about 225,000 shares. OOVEKXMKXTS Uovernment bonds were dull but steady. YESTEIIDAY'S QUOTA.TtON'9. MOXRT ON CAM.
