t .CHICAGO rnonucra MARKET.
CmcAfiO'Mnrch 5. [ Spoclnl Tclccrnm to
Tun UEE.I May wheat closed yesterday
morning nt Sl.OlVQl-OUf. It sold down to
tl.OOJf to-day , within less thnn nn hour of
tlio opening , JocovcrliiK something HUe 2c
Inter , nnd closlns nervous wltliln l' c of Uio
bottom. Hutctilnsoii smiled to-duy fo Uio
first time in six weeks. Ho said thnt wheat
was worth as much to-day n it was when It
was tiuott-il nt 81.10 , but thnt its intrinsic
commercial value was about OOo a bushel.
Falrbanlr btnlcd llatly and umplmtlcallj1 that
ha had not sold nny wheat nml that ho Is
long n < * much as ever. Some of thu hears in-
tlinnto that ho "doth protest too much , "
but then the bears are chronically skeptical.
The belief is general that if ho has not sold
out nny wheat hU line Is less commonly esti
mated nnd Mint It cannot exceed -t.UOO.OOO to
5,000,000 bushels. A line of 4,000,000 to
5,000,000 bushels , or oven 10,000,000 bushels Is
not enougli to control this market ex-
cent tcin | > orurily. A .year ago last
June Harper and his crowd had over 42,000-
000 bushels bought nt onu tltno through three
houses , nnd the "taller" wheat must have
been half as much more. At the moment of
the collapse of the Ocal there wcro about
f8,000,000 bushels of cash wheat here. That
left trade short 2:5,000,000 : bushels to thocliquo
mid quita 20,000,000 bushels to tailors.
There may bo no great stores of wheat in
the country , but few in trade really doubt
that there is not enough to 1111 contrtiqts for
10,000,000 bushels , or that grain would not
como If prices were boomed. It is yet
eiirhty.fivo days to the end of May , and trade
in"that month is narrower than it has been
since last fall. The bears have imulo n can
vass , nnd falling to develop any enormous
short interest in May they have arrived at
the conclusion thnt thcru can not bo any
dangerous long interest after deducting the
amount of wheat in store. They feel en
couraged to believe , therefore , that the dan
ger of a corner has been greatly
overestimated. The foreign news was mildly
encouraging. The private advices were , tiaa
rule , rattier better than the public cables.
The foreigners arc in the market , but they
nro for from being greedy or panic-stricken.
They have no fears that they will starve.
Merchants nt the seaboard marlccts fail to
report any special activity in the export
trade. Thuso weak 'markets will probably
result In good business later. The other do-
nicstio markets were Idwcr to-day In sympa
thy with Chicago , but they did not break so
fnr or so fust. The dcclinn hero hao been
7o In three days. - May wheat oncncd at
$ I.03& and July at DO e , a shrinkage of o
in May nndtfo In July over the night. May
went to $1.0.yf(7Dt.Ot [ ( and looked strong , July
lirm up to Wc. ) May worked back to
uil : , and hung nround thcro for quite a
ile July in the meantime displaying signs
of great weakness. It broke Ic ,
while May drclincd ? e. When May
started , however , it made up for lost time.
Thcro was u plunge to fl.U'J , a slight pause ,
nnd another plunge to Sl.OO'f , July going
like u shot to 8Sc. These wcro the bottom
ligurcs and they were before 10:110. : Until
the bottom was struck the market seemed to
be "Absolutely wlliout support. A rally of Ic
\vAs the next tiling in order , followed by a
Ifa reaction and another J c rally. From
i < 1.01J nnd SUK" for May and July , respec
tively , the market worked down fraction-
nlly mid then rebounded to S1.03/V and OOJ c
lor May and July. The hist half-hour wit
nessed a gradual depreciation , the closing
being $1.01 % for May and KOXc for July , a
net shrinkage of 2 ! c in .tlio nearest mouth ,
nnd 15ffo la July. The excitement to-dnv was
largely local , the outside interest in wheat
not being very largo at the present writing ,
comparatively speaking. The splendid
weather nnd reported increase in the amount
of wlicat on passage , when a largo decrease
was expected , may bo said to be the under
lying causes of the weakness in wheat apart
from the increasing disposition to scoll at
the Idea of manipulation. Sit. Louis reported
n largo milling demand for wlicat there. Cal
ifornia , too , sent bullish weather advices.
The demand for corn was unnffocteaby the
Blurupy disposition displayed by wheat , and
. it was firm in the face of several other cir
cumstances ordinarily tending to troduco :
weakness. The receipts hero wore 23 cars in
excess of the estimates made yesterday , and
81 cars , or about ir > } < per cent of the total ,
were of No. 2 grado. Tlio exports also wcro
smaller than of late , nnd the recent heavy
HhipincnUi Boom now to be affecting the Liv
erpool market , which was quoted as "lead
ing down for American corn. " " Prom Now
Orleans there wore export shipments yester
day of 08,000 bushels. Tlio demand for cash
corn was' good at higher figures , and the
speculative offerings were light. Tno senti
ment of the local speculative element ap
peared to favor the buying side on tlio the
ory of comparatively low prices nnd the prob
ability of a sharp advance in the event of
nny untoward circumstance Interfering with
the prospects for another good crop. Thcro
wus a fair amount of business , and the course
of the market revealed a consldnrablo short
interest existing. The average of the day's
dealings was at and over 'Mo for May , tlio
closing price Doing 8l'@COKc , ut which it was
offered. The general market was j e higher
at the closu than ut the corresponding tlmo
yesterday.
In oats thcro was only moderate interest ,
with the room traders the principal operators ,
nnd but few outside orders received. The
market was heavy , with the principal options
ruling ) t < ! tu lower , through n lack of sup
port. A fairly large lot was thrown on the
market soiling it oft nt noted , as the bu'vers
wore Indifferent and wanted but little nfter
the opening. May declined to t7@'J7 ! c.
with a partial recovery later , while June and
.Ttily wore slow nt about a J o discount. No.
- to go to store shared the wcaimcss in the
ipcculativo market , selling nt 37.j@2Tg'c. }
Provisions experienced another Hlitirp ad
vance. The receipts of hogs wcro smaller
than was very guaerally anticipated , and
with the continuation of the outside buying
noticed yesterday the hull side had the call.
Trade was strong from the start and for all
descriptions of product the prices moved up
wltlt a readiness that made the professional
boars slow to take hold. The extreme outside -
> side prices touched wcro not , sustained , yet
the closings all around wcro at substantial
improvement ! ) . In pork the day's actual ad
vance was 17Js@20c , In lard 5@7i u nnd In

Tiio Uut named blue ! ; , however , became the

by .Iccordova , a largo professional trader ,
It yieldedJJf per cent. The German bouses
wcro buying Louisville & Nashville , while

In my opinion Judicious buying of the entire

improving tendency nftcrwn.-d disappeared
and the market nt noon was dull and steady
generally at about the lowest prices of the
morning. The failure of the Heading Iron
works caused selling by the * professionals
durmi ! the afternoon , and the general mar
ket closes with a weak undertone. Oregon

The t > r < Jpt9 of cattle were the heaviest for
onto days buck , considerably over ouo hun
dred curs being on snlo. The trncie opened
with botchers' stock in good demand nnd
with nn nctlvo market , but while buyers paid
abdut steady prices , in some cases the market
was 5@10e lower. The prices paid
for caws ranged from $3.003.0.i ( , but the
bulk sold nt $2.25ii2.40. ( There wcro n few
hulls on the market , which sold for the most
part at J.OO@2.40. The hulk Of the butchers'
stock had changed hand * by midday. The
trade in beef nnd shipping steers opened
slow , with little life to the trade nil the fore
noon. In the afternoon the packers took
hold better , and with the nld of a good shl- )
plnc demand , the market became quite
active. Although the receipts wcro heavy ,
there were not many cnttlo remaining in llrst
hands when the trade was over. The prices
paid , like those for butchers' stock , were on
an nvcr.igo 5@10c lower. The prices paid for
steers ranged mostly from S3.00 to SUiO , The
supply of feeders was light , nnd though there
was some trading in that class of cattle , It
was mostly In n sniull way.
The hog mnrkct was nctivo nt an advance
of 5@IOc , mid the buyers wcro not long In
picking up everything on snlo. The heavy
hogs sold nt f I.C4.40 ! nnd the light hogs ut

A lower cattle market.
Hogs nctivo nnd 5/3100 higher.
Sheep move freely nt steady prices.
The Union Pacific has not fulfilled its
promise as yet to reduce bridge tolls.
T. O. Shelly , mayor of Falls City , Neb. ,
has taken an interest in the live stock com
mission llrm of Hulls , Collins & McCoy.
The Uock Island announced to-day that the
road was in condition to handle live stock ,
after refusing to receive nny shipment forever
over a month.
Judging from the way hogs nro selling in
other markets , It would bo only natural to
expect heavy hogs to bring more- money than
light weights in a very short time.
