Visible Supply of Wheat Uneipectedly

CHICAOO , 111. , Kob. 20. The visible supply of
wheat unexpectedly .showed a decrease todny
and turned sentiment to the bull side. The
market closed nt an Improvement of % c. Corn
wns weak under continued Now York liquida
tion of long dtuff nnd declined /ic compared
with Saturday's closing prices. Provisions
were weak and lower all the session , nnd
rested wllb losses of 20c In pork nnd 2Wc In
lard und rib1) .
Wheat started off extremely weak with but
little business ! cables were lower ; domestic
markets heavy. A considerable Increase in
the visible supply was expected and the New
York stock market was reported rather
panicky. All this affected the market hero
qullo unfavorably , and there was quite free
selling for n tlmo under which wheat went off
to ! Jc below the panic Ilguro of last week , and
It looked for a tlmo as though It was bonded
for a still lower level. Later thcro was a sud
den change for the better , and n quick advance
of le from the lower point , but much of the
mnrovoment wits lost.
The advance' wns almost onllicly duo to the
surprlM ) furnished by the visible supply ,
which , Instead of showing an Increase , made
a ( lecien ti of 760,000 bu. Tills created mo-
mcnlnry nlnrin among those who had sold
curly , nnd thcro wns something of u scramble
to get back Ibo whcnt. The ellquu brokers
eninvil to bo buying a good dual of July on the
wi-ak Npolx , bitlon llui rallies sold moderately
of May. The opening wns nbout tboiHiinni ns
Katurday's close ; ruled weak nnd declined \ffb \
aO , then bernmu stronger , nnd ufler one or
two fluctuations ndvnnccd le for May and H < -
for July , then eased oil' V , held steadier , nnd
IhuclosliiK was iC for May undue for July
from hotIdii , UKUIUS.
The ii'porl of the I'orn Tnuln News that the
Argentine shipments were 2,2(10,1)00 ( ) bu. the
past forlnliihl , Iho largest on record , bad u
wenkcnlngcll'eet.
Tlieie wns home reference to the clovnlor
room bolnjr scarce , that probably not to exceed
nbout 1,000,000 till , working capacity ro-
innlned In the elevators beio and that vessel
room was also pretly well taken up. It wns
also icmarkcd Hint. It wns on the belief that
Moragc room would be soon all taken that the
combination , If any existed , n as bnyjng wheat ,
thinking that the market could bo thun con
trolled IIIOIP easily.
In corn there wns a continuation of the de
sire to lliiilditi' | : noted during thu closing day * *
of last. week , although the decline brought fair
covering of short lines which .showed a prollt.
The weakness in the stock market mndo itself
felt nnd outside .speculative orders were
largely on the selling side. May delivery was
u part of the time relatively weaker than
July , the dlft'ororico widening lo % c premium
for the latter.
Longs liquidated freely Inoatsnnd thowenk-
ness In corn nlso alTcetcd the market. There
wns good buying by shorts , nnd after a decllno
a rallyof M < " followed , but thu close was easy
nta net loss for the day of } fe.
The reports from the yards of a decllno of
from fie to lOc In the urlco of hogs was 0110
reason assigned for the weakness In provisions.
J'nrdrldgo was a vigorous pounder of pork ;
Logan , Mllcliell nnd Scliwartz-Dupeo were free
Fellers. Nelson Morris , I.nmson llros. and
Kwlft wcro the most prominent buyers.

Inorinocis Liquidation of ItcadliiB the
IViitiiro oftlivU.ty.
Nnw YOHK. Feb. 20-Wall street was
reatcd again today to a continuation of the
enormous liquidation In Heading and the
transactions lu that stock were oven greater
ban on the preceding two days , very
closely approximating 1,000,000 shares In
hat stock alone. The further concessions In
ts price were on a parity with the amount of
Hislnessdonc , 8J ? per cent marking the ox-
rome ducllno and at. the close It was only two
percent better , showing a not loss of 0 ? per
cent for the day. There was an active busi
ness In the general list which nt any tlmo
would have made a largo day , but the Interest
n the Heading episode completely eclipsed
hat In anything ulso.
Itoarly became whispered that a receiver
ship must follow and u decline of nearly 7 per
cent was established , but reassuring ills-
latches from Philadelphia started a covering
if shorts and a rally of over 2 per cent was
> rought about. The olllclul announcement of
the fact followed , however , and a drop of 4 pel-
lent to the lowest price of t.ie day was the
mmedlato result. The excitement attending
ho enormous transactions was great Indeed ,
nit was not so pronounced as the Immense
Igures would bcem to Indicate. Wall street
s , as It were , a spectator of the contest and
seemingly has nothing to lose whichever party
jecomes the possessor , and three days of ex-
treino depression In Heading and its allied
stocks , fallowing a period of depression among
: ho Industrials , has failed to cause a bingle
lallure on the street.
The feeling , It cannot bo denied , was rather
panicky , not only In Heading , but also In Now
England and Northern Pacltlc preferred. At
the opening New Kngland on comparatively
small transactions dropped oven more rapidly
than Heading. At the decllno Ityas met with
oed support and recovered nearly the entire
loss , closing at the highest prlco of the day
with a net. deellnoof only l't. Northern Pacific
preferred was sold heavy early in the day on
the developments between the stockholders'
committee and the management. An opening
decline of nearly 3 per cent was fallowed by
further recession to 43 , nnd although the
pressure to sell was abated , the stock rallied
feebly , reaching 44'i at the cloo , which
showed a loss of 4J1 per cent for the day.
The receivership for Heading was Interpre
ted us marking thu final end of the coal com
bination and Iho oilier coal blocks , especially
Lackawauna and Jersey Central , totlred
sharply , each losing about 4 per cent. Few
other moments of Importance were seen In the
railroad list , but .Manhattan was weak again
and was driven down to 157 , but It rallied 2 per
cent and .it 150 showed a not gal n of 2U per cent.
St. Paul was especially weak and after a sub
stantial rally showed a loss of 1 percent. The
industrials , with the execution of Sugar were
not especially prominent In the dealings , but
considerable strength was shown in Cordut-'o ,
which rose lf percent for the day , while Chicago
cage Gas receded 1 ! > per cent. Sugar.sold
Heavily lu the early dealings und dropped
away from 123 to 120 , but Itisldo support
was forthcoming und it rallied to 125 } < j , being
the strong feature of the lute dealings. It
was uuablo lo hold the entire lully , and at
124i ! was up only ! i per cent for the day.

1'rlcos Open the \Vcok.
MONIIAY , Feb. 20.
The week opens with a fair average run.
Cecelptsof both cattle and hogs wcro some
what heavier than on last Monday , while
there were fewer sheep on sale.
The heavy run of cattle In Chicago and the
ewer market there acted as a millstone about
: he neck of the trade hero. Hacelpts were too
Iglit to admit ot u Very sorlou s break , but
lotwlthstandlng a very fair general demand
prices wore oil Oc to' lOc on about everything
, n the beef cattle lliu , GooJ 1,200 to 1,400-
, b. steers sold at from $4.00 to 34.75 , with fair
lo good 1,030 to 1,200-lb. steers at from $1 to
$4.30. $ CommonUb light stuff and odds
Hid ends sold down as low as $3.05.
UuslnebS was rather slow throughout
but under the circumstances there was a dis
position on the part of both buyers and sellers
to come to torrns-abd 'a ' very fair clearance
was finally effected.
Butchers' stock and dinners changed hands
at fully steady prices. There was a good line
of buyers ou Hand and the movement was
active from fctart'to ' finish. Hcally choice stock
was about us scarce as really poor stuff.
Prices ranged all the way from $1.75 to $3.76 ,
with the bulkof the desirable offerings at from
52.30 to $3.50. Good to choice veal calves were
In active demand and stronger ut from $5 to
fObut thcro was no particular change in the
common largo stock , which sold Indifferently
at around $2.00 to $4.00. Hough stock of all
kinds was in good demand and llriu at from
$1.95 to $3.70.
Business was very dull In the stacker and
feeder line. There was a very limited country
demand , and us the offerings happened to bo
unusually liberal prices went oil anywhere
from lOc to20c on all grades. Represen

Good hogs whether light or heavy were
steadily held. Only a small part of the re
ceipts graded above common and as the
Inquiry was generally for something better
the inurkal far "off grades" was lower from
6c to lOc lower than Saturday. The close was
firmer than the opsnlng because of the fact
that the arrivals proved to bo .something like
3,000 head loss than the first estimates. There
was nothing here good enough to bring more
than $8.50 and only hero and thcro was thcro
a sale at better than $8.35. From $8 to

DUNVEU , Colo. , Fob. 20. A incctttiK was
lichl at St. John's Kpiscopal cathedral , at
which wore present a lar o portion of the
representative business men and citizens of
Denver , to take action on the re
cent disgraceful Blithering that sur
rounded Kov. Dean Hart's homo a
few Sundays ngo and expressed its
antipathy at the part the dean took In the
closing of Sunday theaters. The mob con
sisted principally of boys , and no damage
was done beyond the Indignity offered the
dean by the presence of such a crowd. Sen
sational correspondents exaggerated the re
port of the mob's action to such a degree
that thu Idea spread throughout the east
that Dean Hurt's life was In dangerand that
property in Denver was unsafe because of
mob law. ] , etters are still being received In
this city inquiring as to the safety of life
and property.
Judge Moses Ilallet was made chairman of
the meeting and Hon. Plait Hecers , the
mayor of Denver , ColonelJohn II. Plat t nnil
Hon. George K. Doaledrew up resolutions de
nouncing the action of the mob nnd censur
ing those correspondents who sent false and
misleading accounts of the affair to enstern
papers , as enemies of the name of Denver.
The resolution goes on to say : "The city
owes Dean Hart a debt of gratitude for Ids
eloquent fearlessness and great catholicity
as a preafber and teacher , his courage in
defense of good order and in denouncing law
lessness , his support of everything tending
to good government , and his self-sacrllico in
aid of the poor and helpless. "
Thc.v close by expressing renewed confi
dence in Dean Hart , and calling upon all law-
abiding citizrns to disabuse the minds of the
people of this and other countries of any
impression that they iiinv have gathered as
to the loyalty and the right of Denver's citi
zens to bo considered as enlightened mem
bers of society.
