H was another session of pretty evenly divided news , mid well divided trade , hciico tlioro wus considerable notion nnd a fair volumeof business within ( ilimited range. The market started strong under the inlluenco Of l\gM \ receipts esti mated In the northwest , firm cables ana colder weather over the wheat belt. On the llrstnd- vance there was frco selling against calls. The innrkct moved rlfiht up past the call price. The upward movement was helped nlotiR by the buying of Imlf a dozen strong houses. The best price ' , us reached during thullrsthalf hour , nnd a decline of lo nnd Ti ellclit rally followed hoforo mUlduy , Action InMnywas !

Clarke wired thntlloatlng cargoes wcro strong on continental demand , Haln on the I'uulllo coast continues. Minneapolis had but 128 ears , llRhterthan for weeks , und later In the day reported cash wheat ' . 'it upatfMc. Kansas City had but f.1 cars of wheat of which 10 cars were said to ho OrcRon wheat. Milwaukee had n strong market In futures early , with % o to Xc advance , llradstrcot's report on available stocks give a decrciiso of 1.075,000 bushels west of the mountains and but fi7,000 bushels de crease east. This was not particularly bullish. ItusHlan and Indian shipments wcro given at ? , GU8,000 bushels against 2,466OCO , bushels last wcok. Export clearances were 38,000 packages of flour from New York nnd Ilaltt- morc , with no wheat from cither port , The cash wheat movement was not encouraging' at liny point. Ten minutes before the close May wheat was 07 io seller , the low point of the session. Whatever strength wheat had early had entirely dlsapnoaroil bcforo the close. The last few minutes found the trade nil sell ing ntul the prlco of JIny went off to 07'Je , closing ( iTii' ) . or ' , (0 ( iindur last night. July Buffered Justus much nnd hold lie ! under the lest prleooarly. closing ntra ! e , February was quoted utU3Uo and off to l)4c ) nominal at close. The corn market followed wheat pretty closely mcstof thndny. It was a narrow deal , however , and for the greater part of the session had hut'/o { range. Action was : May opnncd atKITjc , sold at Mijc , ntul < ) IT to .Vljjo ; July opened at KI.Vo. sold ut KHie , and de clined with May , The feature of tlm closing market In com was tno goltlnjr hi of May nnd the ecllliiK of July. If the fellows are going to bo short on tlm market with no stocks hero , It Is safer to sell for next July or May , IS'.r. ' . This wns the feeling that caused the drop In July during the last hour. May declined to Kl ? < ; u nnd closed at fi3JSc. or Mo under last night. July declined ! ; o from the top prlco curly , to fit.'jc ' , closing at the bottom at a loss of Ho for t ho day. 1'obriiary sold at KiUc. oil tofilljoi March closed nominal with Febru ary. Oats closed for the leading month at exactly - actly yesterday's price. There was In this market , as In corn , a tendency to sell July nnd hedge on May contracts.

The nutubcr of privileges sold last night was very liirjjo anil exeroUud a controlling Inlliicncu over today's inurkot. The early nown wnsdceldodly bullish , firm cables with cold woutlier In Kngland , a tuuldon drop In toinporiktiiro In the northwest and Ilrad- ttreel's e&tlniata ot a decrcaso of 1,140,000 bushels In avnllublo supplies east and west of tlm Koekles all tended to make shorts uneasy and opened the inurkot at a good advance over yesterday's closing und above the average - ago price of calls , Thu buyers of the calls eold against them and otiuldo business was too small to withstand the heavy offerings espoi'lully after it was ascertained that the cold hail brought good HIHIWS to the winter wheat region. Hecelpts at thu eleven primary points were considered largo amounting to &O.OOU bushels.

As soon as ils wants were supplied the prlco broke oil ind It gradually gave way until OTJJo wns ouclied. It closed about there and weak. The cables are steady. We have had the old wnvo but the demand for cash wheat does not appear. Thu sentiment Is bullish because of light stocks cast , but line vpiithrr will more than offset this so long ns we havolnstoro In this city 8UO,0 ( ) , < 0 bushels ind no demand. Manipulation has been the Higbeiir ngalnst selling Mny.

It was list cold enough to make shorts good buyers ind thu resulting bulge was what longs have icen waiting for to. get out with n piollt. llutehlnson was the West conspicuous buyer. lo had sold over 3000.0M calls , and being short already , did not relish thu prospect of adding so largely to his lino. Ho nought be tween 1,000,000 and 2,000,000. while Conn- solmnn , Invlti , Oreen , Schwartz nnd Dupeo nnd others wcro aUo con spicuous buyers at USiJo for May. l.ongs having sold out and shorts como n , there was no further demand for wheat , and the market turned weak. It Is now In po sition to go lower unless some unexpected In centive turns up to change speculative sentl- nent. Hulls are not resisting a decline to any extent , for they want to get their wheat back as cheaply as possible , and the hours disgusted with their luck of nerve and anxious tore- cover losses , ate disposed tosellmoro furl- nisly than before. It Is not Improbable thnt : ho result will bo another ovor- olcl market culminating , by nnd by In n sharp rally , when ihorts are driven to cover but wo would not io surprised to see rather n weak market for ifowdnys , The fenturo of corn was buying by llittciilnson.

Uats were dull , llttlo dolntr , market In scalpers hands , Provisions advanced and receded with grain. Iliitclilnson parted llber- illy with his holdings.

[ Special Telozr.im to Tun 1IEK.1 STOCKS The action of the llur- llngton directors In cutting down tire illvl- lend to 4 per cent , caused a broakof acouplo of points In Iliirlhigton yesterday and caused that stock to open ut a further docllno this morning. Still the opinion of the street and the public is that It w.is a wise , buslncss-llka action. To attempt to pay more dividend than earn ings warrant Is always misleading , nnd the square dealing of the llnrllngton olllclals has done much to restore public confidence , and It Is believed that the trilling losses In Its shares will bo quickly recovered on a sound 4 per cent basis. The stock market was of a mod erate character nt the opening , with llnrllng ton and St. Paul leading. Notwithstanding tlio dullness , however , the market displayed a decided tendency to recover the losses of yesterday and after a comparatively firm open Ing , fractional advances wcro iniiilo Itiulmost everything In which there was any change nt all. llurllngton opened Yi per cent lower and further retired a small fraction , touch ing 84J4' . but from that point It reacted to & > , at which point It romalned. The only move ment of Importance In the market , however , was tlio advance in Susqucliaiimi & Western [ iroferred from 39 to 40U on slight trading , Dealings developed no other feature. During the succeeding hour , the whole list of active stocks moved up to a better level. I.onls- vlllo & NnshvlllD rose to75U , Northern Pa cific common to S.s ; > , Hock Islnnd to ( / ) ? , St. Paul to M'/ . Missouri Pacific to C7j ( , with Union Pncllle at { ' < . I.aokawanna led tlio ad vance In coal stocks at 130. Uhlcago Gas nnd su ar iccelpts were at 41a und Wl re spectively. The stock market ended In bad shape , The closing of the American trust company's doors , nml the engagements of gold for export , following on the unsettled condition of ycstorda , miido It an easy mat ter to rnttlo thoirlco of stocks down at the close , Koom traders jumped on Burlington to start the other stocks lower. That stock lost 2 points more. Itnok Island was ite.xt with a 1 per cent loss. Other losses wcro In significant. Atchlson and Ylllimlft closed steady. There nro two half days to como this week and nvcrytlilng appears to bo against the market. Bales were limited to 15 ,000 shares. Kennott. Hopkins & Co. , toChrlstlo-Lathrop Com. , Co. The whole stock market today has been tormented by the weakness of Qulney and Rock Island , The former was weak at the opening on selling orders received overnight from parties who had learned of the reduction In the rate of dividend and were unwilling to carry their stock longer , but tlio prlco rallied after early sales were made and the whole markets for the last hour was strong , thougli qultounnctlve. During the afternoon there was much pressure on Qulney and Hock Islundi the formorsolllng down 151 per cent and the latter'J per cent from early prices. The dis crimination which buyers of stocks are exer cising Is notable , Ordinarily the weakness of two such prominent stocks would have a bad oll'cct on thu whole list , but the special causes for the depression of these stocks nro so wcl' known that these , whoso financial condltlor and piosuocts are not alVoctod by the same conditions are bought with con fidence. The result Is tlfo sharp break In "Q" and Hoek Island did not lower general values much , In fact some stocks closed higher than last nlirht. Traders mn < lo every effort to depress Bt. Paul and Atchlson , but these stocks found friends and thoformor lost but a small fraction on the day's' business and the latter closed unchanged. The market has had some bud news to contend with. The American loan and trust company , whoso af fairs uuvo boon under Investigation for spma days , closed Us doors , and It was reported 1000.000 In gold bad been engaged for shipment on Saturday. Tlio moderate Increaseof earn- Ingaof the Bt. Paul for the second wcok of February wns expected1 Union Pnclllo has been notably steady and sohavo the Northon Pacific's , but the market Is narrow and hat many Indications otuhollaay character. The exchange closing ut noon tomorrow and again at noon on Saturday. Hales , 1IU,4DO , NUW VOUK STOCKS. mocks. [ Open. I 11I U. I law. | Close. | Vcs'y , W.AI. . K , .
