THE OMAHA DAILY 13EJB-TUESDAY : FEBBUABY 20. IS * ) . THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS , Wheat Trade Somewhat Better But Pricoa Lower. LACK OF ACTIVITY IN CORN- Ontn Quiet mill C.encinlly Dull The Outcome In I'rnrUloiiH Disap pointing Cntllr Slew CHICAGO rilOItjJCK MA.UKKT. Cmcjifio , Teh. 2.'i [ Special Tcleeram 10 run HKE 1 The loctl wheat market was quiet , with a gentle tendency toward u lower ranRC In price * . Trade was lomculml bet ter than on Saturday , but 11 Is tlH largely | local , Cables \u-rc generally stronger , nnd t some private advices from London reported * hales of American Hour there at an ndvanco of 0 < l per barrel over the last previous fjtiou- tlons. There was some buying for foreign account hero iind In New Yorlt , but not cnouph to cut much of a figure. The visible supply statement showed a decrease of noout 7iKi,000 bushels in the warehouse stocks , or rather more than a majority of the estimates mauc it This circumstance cave the local bulls nn excuse for running prices up Ic from the inside range of the carlx morning , but the improvement did not hold. The cold weather is not scnousb talked of for the reason that its effect upon the crop arc not nnd cannot bo inown at this time There is n light covering of snow over a largo portion of the winter w heat area , but opinions differ on the question of its adequacy us a protco tlon against the severe cold , suen as we have been experiencing lately. The facts can only bo nscertamnblo later. The other American markets are not developing dis tinctively independent features. They art ; drifting along without any seeming dcllnite- ness of object or purpose , except that values the country over appear to bo getting nearer to parity. Minneapolis , for instance , which for months ranged from SctoTc above Chicago , is now about down to Chicago prices. New York is not getting rid of its surplus very fast , and the existence of liberal stocks acts as a bar to the develop inent of the boom along the Atlantic coast. The bullish sentiment is stronger in UufTalo than anvwhcrc else on the tontmcnt , seem ingly. Locally there was prexalent a belief that the bull leaders were getting rid of wheat on every rally , though no good evi dence in support of that theory was obtain able. H is not unlikely , Judging from the uest information at hand , that "the clique , " meaning the Fulrlmnk party and the bull party generally , has sold a good deal of long wheat during the past \\ceic. Indeed , if the truth were knoun , it is probable that the al- ligjd clique has so far ieduced its holdings as to be no longer a menace to the market , and that the deal in Ma.lias already culmi nated. With stockb so light linn the % olunie of speculative trading BO heavy , any month might easllj corner it-self without manipula tion , but it is a fact that the dread of the deal is less poignant now than it has been in two months With the selling out of the old lines of long wheat and the covering of the old lines of hhort wheat , the market now seems to be in a faiily healthy state. May opened at $1 09' , worked down to ? 1 < H14 , rallied to fl ICJk as the visible supply lig- uros'bcgun loiiilng in , sold of ! to $1.0sJtliung around ? 1 00 for quite a while , stai ted up nervously two or three nines , and shortly before 1 o'clock sold off inp- idly to Sl.OiJf , steadying later , how ever , and closing at fl.OS. .Inly wheat opened at fl. > fc , ranged at 04 ( H } t. jC , until Into in the session , and then sold off to 93' c The closn was 04c The linal quotations mark a bhrinkagu of l\c in May , and lc in July , as compared with Satuiday. There was no change in the general condi tion of business in thu speculative corn raarkit. The same dullness und lack of out side orders which has so long pre vailed was still the prevailing feature , nnd the narrow fluctuations show tno lack of activity which prevailed , the market leaving off in the end at very near the same figures as on Saturday for May , June , and July , but about J/c lower on February , March , and Ap'il futures. Oats were quiet and generally dull , tending to easiness after a steady opening , with some May trades at 'JT XSfiTJ c , indicating about a Jc decline The local stocks , increased nearly 119,000 bushels during the week , mnkinr a total of 3,6011,000 bushels , and with the lib eral receipts and Improved grading there was only a light demand on speculative ac count. The long munths were dull and inac tive. There was large trading in No. U oats , to go to store , at i fc , or the lormer price. In provisions the outcome of the day's mar ket was bomonhut disappointing. The open ing was strong and generally higher than last week's closinirs , and for n time the advices fem the stock yards encouraged the traders to look for a bull movement. As the session progressed , however , the strength shown was supplanted by an easier tendency , which cul minated in an actual decline , based on Satur day's last prices , of C < &rJ > o in pork , and 2J c in short ribs. CHICAGO LiIVE STOCK CIUOAOO , Feb. 2o. | Special Telegram to THE UEE.J CArn.n The market was well supplied nnd general trading was slow and unsatisfactory to-day to salesmen. The western markets were lightly supplied and steady The eastern markets were steady , and the London markets recovered one-third of last week's decline.

STOCKS The stock market experienced n sot back at thu opening this morning , Owing to the weakness displayed , St. Paul common and preferred wore very \vcak in London on the assertion that the dividend on the preferred would surely be passed. First prices wcro generally lower , Bt. Paul shoeing n loss of JJ ) and Missouri Piicillo 1 per cent. St. Paul and Cotton Seed Oil experienced n further doclmo of X and 1 percent , respectively. The general fool ing \vns doeldeilly bearish. Cainmack und hie . .friends were oat In full force nnd wore pre dicting that St. Paul woula pass the divi dend on preferred stock. The foreign houses were selling this stock in large blocks aim the advices from London say that the hold ers are growing tired of their purchases and arc unloading their stock as fast as possible. The f eel I n K Is decidedly bearish on coalers , notwithstanding the recent cold weather. Lake Shore was about the only stock that eeetnod to hnvo any friends. The Insiders maintain Ihut the earnings of this company show largo Increase tinco January 1 , und that the business of the new j ear is full ol bright promises. Northern Piicillo preferred is in high favor. The buying by insiders has been good. Phlladcluhla interests appear to imvo taken hold. The loan crowd showed all the stocks to bo in plentiful supply , with the exception of St. Paul common , which was in good demand ana commanded a small premium for use. The fhort Interest In this stock is quito large , nnd Chicago operators wcro noticeable buyers on the decline. U is estimated thnt London sold 5,000 shares oi SU Paul this morning. The vt ealmcss In Missouri Pacillc could not bo explained , and t win the opinion of thu conservative opera tors that Gould was a seller. Toward 11 o'clock a moderate rally ensued , it being ! ' < ported that the Missouri Pacific would sign the agreement President Wade , of the Mexican Central , sajs that a sufficient amount of the first mortgage and Income bonds have been deposited , under the terms of the circular imuil January 3J. to insure the sueceas of the refunding plan.
