CHICAGO rnODUCB MARKET.
CIUCAOO , March 20. [ Special Tclcirram to
Tnn HnE.J Thumbs went up In the wheat
market to-day. The advance in July was
small , but May had quite a bulge nod there
was no great amount of wheat tor sale at
nny time. Aside from the weather the now *
was generally bullish , and the weather is
not what It might be. The signal service re
ports fall to note the continuation of the
general rains throughout the winter wheat
districts , but there have been warm and
timely rains throughout the northern spring
wheat belt. California reports steady and
welcome rains on the coast. Cables are gen
erally dull , quiet and seemingly inclined to
weakness , but tins probably docs not reflect
the spirit of tlio foreign markets. A bu < f pet
of cables was received by Boya & 13ro. this
morning which may be summarised in the
statement that the dullness In the foreign
market is generally believed to bo only
temporary ; that foreigners noxv look
upon the American seaboard markets as
down to a fair export basis ; that there will
be a peed demand for New York wheat at
around the present prices , and that the situa
tion h generally healthy. Now York re
ported that n peed csport business had been
done yesterday afternoon , and that to-day
vessel room had been encaged in the Balti
more for 00,000 bushels of wheat on n Now
York order. The subsequent report that the
amount should have been 3,000,000 bushels
was not confirmed. New York advices were
generally bullish and pave Indications of
considerable activity among the exporters.
The posting of 104,000 bushels cleared yes
terday must bo accented as confirmatory
testimony in this direction. From the other
coast advices were received going to prove
that vesterday's report about the Australian
business was not a canard after all. From
the interior points of accumulation reports
como in of activity in cash wheat. Detroit
reports 00 carloads taken by millers.
Toledo reports a moderate milling demand ,
end St. Louis and Buffalo the same. At
Milwaukee 50,000 c ishels arc being loaded
to-day for Kingston , reducing the stocks of
the No. 2 nt that point -459,000 bushels. It
is true that this healthy renewal of activity in
the cash wheat trade is not on the basis of
* Chicago prices , but on the other hand it must
not bo forgotten that prices ranging from Dote
to 20c a bushel above the other markets for
a period of five months have failed to bring
wheat in any considerable quantities to Chicago
cage , thus strengthening decidedly the view
entertained by leading bulls that there is no
very great amount In the country available
for shipment to Chicago. With these re
ports coming In from all quarters , it is not
to bo wondered that the speculative demand
Mould have been brisk hero to-day. The
feeling was very , very bearish at
the outset , but this did not last
long after it was discovered
that there was little long wheat
lor sale. Hutchinson was a large buyer , and
he bought heavily on every reaction through
out the day , though ho was disinclined , ap
parently , to lot the market stay nbovo OO c
for May. It started nt 95J.c ( and quickly ad
vanced to 96c. During the last two hours
the fluctuations were within a range of about
lie , 90 @ 90Xc being the extremes. July
opened nt bS&c , ranged to 85K@80) c , and
closed at 80. May left off at90c. As com
pared with yesterday's closing this is a gain
of Itfc in May and } { o in July. The volume
of trade in the pit was not especially large ,
though there were periods of excitement and
activity. The local sentiment seems to be
undergoing another change. It is generally
admitted now that the leading bulls have not
changed their position , and that from a state
of inactivity Hutchinson has developed into
an ally. It is believed by many operators ol
cool Judgment that the policy of tbo big mec
will bo to scalp the market around the pres
ent prices for a time , to encourage the con
sumptive and export movement , before workIng -
Ing for a material advance.
In corn , today , there was a much largei
business done , and the attendance of the
brokers in the pit was considerably above
the recent average. A good deal of lonj.
stuff was sold out at a loss , and a good manj
of the shorts covered their deals at a moder
nto profit. Near futures were rather the
weakest. May and the moro distant future :
being relatively firmer , and closed slightlj
higher than they did yesterday. The Una
closing prices showed April nominally J \
lower. May unchanged and Juno and Juij
slightly higher.
In the regular market for oats a good busl-
ness was recorded within a narrow range
averaging easier. May met with only fail
support , while there was considerable prop
erty offered for Juno , which sold down J ( S
Ifo to 25c , and ruled slightly steadier later ,
The so-called clique were moderate buyers ol
May , which sold chiefly at 37c , and spli
nbovo mid below , while July was moro quiet
No. 2 oats in store or for March delivery wen
dull and easy around 24/c , with car lots to
0 to store commanding a fractional premium
Provisions experienced something of i
boom. The trading opened at prices a littli
under yesterday's closing quotations , but II
was soon found that the bull side had thi
call , and the market moved uu sharp ! ;
under the lead of pork. The shorts in thi
article named were frightened into purchas
ing freely by the buying of Warren , Baxtei
and some smaller trades , and with the demand
mand exceeding the offerings the sellers hni
matters their own way. Tbo product wa
wanted by urgent buyers , and bcforo ani
reaction to speak of had occurred pork wa
advanced 35c , lard t@7o and short rib
12Uc. In the upward turn witnessed Ian
and short ribs simply followed pork , whlcl
was the center of interest. The extromi
outsldo prices paid were realized during thi
last hour of the session , and at the close porl
showed u net advance of C5c , lard of 5c , am
short ribs of lOc.

CHICAGO , March 20. | Special Telegrar
to THE BKE.J CATTLE Higher prices wcr
expected to-day , but the fact was that th
buyers were not badly in need of cattla an
did not do any lively bidding , as they seeme
to think the decrease in the receipts "had
string tied to it" and was only a transiec
holdback , not indicating a scarcity of mat
kctablo stock. However , the market to-da
was notquotably different. Some comma
cattle actually sold lower and all sold nt vor
low prices. Three loads of funcy cattla sol

NBW YOIIK , March 20. [ Special Telegrai
to TUE Bue.1 STOCKS Tbo feeling hero I
stocks this morning was in keeping ; wit
I-ondon quiet. ThU was true of the gei
ernl list , but mora so of Atclnson , Nortl
western and Chicago Gas. The openlu
prices were low , the declines from yesterdc
amounting to about % per cent , with Bu
ImgtonSiQulncyoff 1 percent. Followln
the opening there were slight declines , whi
Dock Island distinguished itself by a decile
of ) { per cent. Before 11 o'clock the quli
ROVO way to sorao animation , and the weal
ness to considerable strength. The upwoi
movement , like the early decline , was coi
flucd to fractious , with the exception of Cl
cage Gas , which went tip about a point , The
tally also caught up Lackawanna , Burling
ton , Hock Island , Missouri Pacific and Atchl-
eon , all of which advanced enough to moro
than cancel the early declines , and left prices
better than fat the opening , with the market
apparently firm. Before noon the activity
was less marked , and in a few stocks there
was a slight yielding from the top prices , but
no special weakness was shown. The last
hour of the stock market was characterized
by indifferent operation * . This resulted in
general weakness and declines from the best
prices made about noon , and nt the close the
most of the advances were lost and stocks
were llttlo changed at the close from last
nlcrht. Burlington suffered most and closed
nearly a point lower for the day. The slight ad
vances wore sustained well. Lackawanna , ;
Missouri Pacific , 3H' ; Heading , { , while Chicago
cage Gas certificates closed 2 } higher , ful
filling the predictions regarding thorn. Iho
total sales for the day were 235,842 shares ,
including Reading , 23,000 ; Burlington , 11,000 ;
Lackawanna , 15,800 ; Hock Island , 11,800 ;

Although the receipts wore tbe heaviest ol
tbe week the market opened active and over
wclro hundred head changed hands
before middny. The prices paid were
fully ns good ixs yesterday , and dressed beef
nd shipping steers sold at a range of 3.00(7 ( }
.90. but principally at t3.15S3.Qp. ( The
quality of the bcovw was good and there
vero plenty of very desirable cattle on snlo ,
> ut no better than were plenty of the cattle
hat sold lost week 20 < W-TOc lower than to-
ay's prices. Butchers' stock was in pretty
air demand when choice but common stuff
and canners were extremely slow. A very
choice load ot cows sold At (3.00 , but the bulk
vent at $2.00 ( < 2.50. There were n good
many bulls among the offerings which sold
quito welL The supply of feeders was light
but the demand was pretty fnlr and prices
tronp. A bunch sold nt (3.00 which were no
tetter than the cattle that sold last week at
2.S5. As compared with a week ago thcro
las been a most decided advance in cattle
and yet the most conservative look upon It
only as a llttlo Hurry which is bound to re
sult in a heavy run and lower prices.
HOKS.
It would bo difficult to detect any essential
difference between the market to-day nnd
that of yesterday. Not only were the prices
nbout the same but Wio receipts as well. Al
though the receipts nro very light , only
averaging about hnlf as heavy us last week ,
thcro Is no life or snnp to the trade , the buy *
ers being bearish in the extreme and not ap
parently curing whether tboy got any hogs
