CHICAGO , May S. Weakness
marked tlio day In the wheat pit , May mak
ing a now low record at ! % nnd July
finishing i/4o lower than yesterday : July corn
unchanged , oatn I4c higher and provisions
finished lower nil around.
Wheat ruled more nctlvc , with ? ic range.
Tlio feeling was ng.iln weaker at lower
prices , and the closing showed front ftc to
tfc loss. As on yesterday , the news was
largely bearish , 'the lower cables , large
Ualtlo shipments , favorable weather .Mid
larger northwestern receipts , all tending to
weaken values , and offerings from the start
were much larger than expected. Initial
transactions were at fractional declines and
under fairly liberal offerings , sold tlown
4 < 5 more , when July rallied Vic , cased off
% c , advanced Me , changed some and closed
as .stated.
Corn at the opening showed a fractional
loss and sold down a trllle more , then braced
up and prices rallied from Vic to % c , became
and closed unchanged
came dull , changed but little
changed for July , but with May % c higher.
In June nnd
There was a better business
July oats , but very little In May. Outside
buying orders for June , nnd especially July ,
were more numerous and prices advanced
> ic to % c and finally closed steady nt about
the top figures , while .May nnd September
remained steady.
Dullness and weakness were the features
of the provision market , The latter was
caused by a decline In llvo hogs at the
yards. A little strength was subsequently
developed on some buying and the upward
movement In wheat. The market was later
offered down , particularly pork , with no ono
to take It. The decline was emphasized by
tlie break In wheat. A better feeling pre
vailed at the close , although there was no
material change In values. Lard and ribs
closed lower. Pork and lard closed steady
at the decline. Compared with yesterday ,
July pork Is 7'/4c lower , July lard T'/fcc lower
and July ribs Cc lower.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow : Vheat ,
f,2 cars ; corn , 110 cars ; oats , 115 cars ; hogs ,
24,000 head.

In sympathy with May. as Muy rules higher than

NEW YOHK , May 8.Vcre It not for the
heavy transnctlnna In Sugar today's stocl :
market wcwild have lieen tame Intlccd. Vt'lint
little of activity there wns In the rest of thu
Hat wns consigned to St. Paul , General Elec
tric and Chicago , Burlington & Qulncy. At the
opening of the session Sugar was heavily
pressed for sale and. lost 3' per cent.
The break wns credited to manipulation by
thu bull pool with the object of getting thu
shorts to Increase their Hues and the shorts
did help to send the price down by adding to
the bulk of the sales. When the low point
wns touched buying orders came In , which
caused a rally of 2V1 per cent , but renewed
selling sent the llgurco baclc to within > H
per cent of the bottom price of the morning.
Later in the day a recovery of Hfe per cent
wns made , of which 1 per cent was subse
quently lost , with a final rally of Uper cent ,
the closing sale being at u decline of 1 % per
cent on the dny. Sugar preferred lost IV'i
per cent. St. Paul , after" a decline of % per
cent , rose 3 per cent. Then n drive was
made on the stock on the reported bond
sale , but It was firmly held , giving way
toward the close 1A per cent , with a rally
of % per cent , and closing U per cent above
yesterday.
It has been learned that the St. Paul com
pany did , yesterday at private sales , dispose
of 12,000,000 of 4 per cent mortgage bonds
to reimburse the treasury for outlays for
equipment and to retire maturing bonds.
There Is still in the treasury $2,735,000 of
these bonds , avai'able ' when occasion rsquire. * .
Burlington & Qulncy receded % per csnt In
the morning , but rallied promptly , selling up
% per cent , ot which % per cent was lost nt
the close. Hock Island Is unchanged on the
day and Northwestern V per cnt higher.
The general market moved sluggishly and
with Irregularity , the prevailing tone being
dullness in the fluctuations , ns a rule being
confined to narrow limits. The speculation
was the heaviest during the last hour and
closed weak. The railway nnd miscellaneous
bond market was generally weak throughout
the day and closed Irregular.
The Post says ; So much of today's busi
ness was made up of Sugar certificates that
these shares may be said to have monop
olized the market. Some of the "pools"
which have managed the recent operations
for th3 rise wera clearly disposing of their
stock today , but the market was "worked"
on a very extensive scale , and reslstancs
made to the decline on the most expert prin
ciples. The- net result , however , was n sub
stantial decline. There- was an undoubted
disposition among Individual speculators to
buy , so firmly has the notion of the trust's
sway at Washington obtained control.

SAN FRANCISCO , May 8. Francis Mur
phy , an American engineer and mining man
who has returned to this city from Mazatlan ,
Mexico , was a member of a searching parly
that left Durango about five weeks ago to
find the whereabouts of H. L. Denton , C.
P. Hall , Frank Turnstall , Americans , and
two Mexican guides , who started from Salto ,
state of Durango , on a prospecting and hunt
ing expedition Into the Sierra Madre moun
tains. The men left Denver , Colo. , some
months ago In company with a Mr. Freeman ,
who Is said to have come from St. Louis ,
and two New York gentlemen. Mr. Free
man and the two New York men , together
with an Indian guldo nnd several Mexicans ,
arrived back at Salto jtist before the expedi
tion was sent In search of their companions.
In a half-starved coridltlon and badly used
up. They reported tlfat they had run short
of provisions in-the-mountains , lost their
way and become separated from Denton ,
Hall and Turnstall and the balance of the
party. '
A relief party was at once organized , Mur
phy , two American miners and a number of
Mexicans constituting the searchers. The
bleak and almost. Inaccessible parts of the
Sierra Madre range iwero explored. In a
ravine nearly forty miles from Salto part of
a camp outfit belonging to the missing men
was discovered. A blind trail was followed
for ten miles over the most ragged and In
hospitable of the mountain region. At one
point a pole had free 'driven Into the ground
to which had befiii fastened a torn shirt on
which was a plqce ot paper on which was
printed with n 'pencil Hie' words : "Out of
provisions , no water ; have struck out for
the foot of this canjn. "
Five miles In a westerly direction from this
signal tjie bodies of Denton and Hall were
found lying on their backs. Several camp
utensils , a Winchester rifle and some cart
ridges were scattered about the spot. The
bodies were partly devoured by coyotes , but
were easily Identified. The clothing had
nearly all been torn from Hall's body. Den-
ton's remains were badly disfigured. The
remains of the two men were burled with
solemn ceremonies and a mound of stones
raised over them.
No further time was lost then In pushing
the hunt for Turnstall and the Mexicans.
The searching party was divided , one-half
going north and the other halt going east
ward. A blind trail led the northbound
party Into a part of the mountains that
could not bo traveled through nnd the
searchers weru forced to turn back , their
own provisions running low and the water
supply too far remote for safety. The other
party was entirely unsuccessful In finding
any trace of Turnstall , although It remained
for nearly ten days.
It Is supposed that all of the missing men
have died of starvation.

TUESDAY , May S.
There wns n very respectable run of cattle
nnd sheep today , but the supply of hogs was
unaccountably light. The two days' re
ceipts show nil Increase of 2,200 caltle nnd
1-tOO sheep nnd a decrease of 2,100 hogs , ns
compared with supplies for the first two
days of last week.
The suppply of cattle was larger than It
has been for nearly four weeks nnd fully
00 per cent of the receipts weru fat cattle
Offerings Included n liberal proportion every
very desirable steers , both heavy and light
but there were lots of good heavy beeves
hero that have been ready to ship for sonio
time. Owners have , been feeding then
longer than usual this spring , walling for a
better turn to the market , but the turn wns
llko "the letter that never came. " The
dressed beef men were nil tolerably good
buyers , but they all wanted the lighter
cattle , weighing from 1.100 Iba. down , nnd
where the stuff Just suited prices ruled
very nearly steady. There was an unmis
takably weaker tone to the trade , however
and when It came to thu medium nm
heavier grades lower prices were the rule
some of the rough , coarse , heavy steers
Belling Cc to lOc lower -than on .Monday
Doth shippers nnd exporters wcro doing
business , but In the present demoralized con
dition of eastern and European markets
they were not very enthusiastic buyers.
Aside from the nice , tidy , fat steers the
market was dull and mean throughout , nm
the close found a few cnttlu still In llrst
hands.
The market for cow stuff was active ami
fully steady , as there were not over a dozen
loads on sale and the demand was very good.
Calves were In rather better demand anil
firmer , but there was no material change In
the market for rough stock generally.
There was u fair amount of trading In
stockers and feeders , but. supplies were
ample for the rather restricted country de
mand , and the tendency of prices was lower.
Country buyers have been scared out by the
high prices and ns a result stocks have bcc.n
allowed to accumulate. Prices arc easier
and a better demand may now bo expected.
Good to choice feeders are quoted at $3.25 ©
3.85 , fnlr to good at $3.0003.25 , and lighter ,
commoner grades at from $3 down. Ilcpre-

HOGS The recent decline linn had some
thing to do with shutting off supplies , but
the desfro of farmers to make hay while the
sun shlnrs and makeor market hogs when
they can't make hay la probably the main
reason for the decreased receipts. There
were Uss than 6,000 fresh hogs received
today and most of them wcro light and
medium weights. Heavy hogn wore scarce ;
In the entire eighty-six loads received there
was but ono that averaged over 300 Ibs.
Moat of the loads averaged under 240 Ibs. ,
but , ns a rule , the quality wua very fair.
Conditions were decidedly unfavorable to thu
selling IntcretitH and the nverngo of prices
paid wan fully a nickel lower than Monday.
Lower markets caul paralyzed the shipping
and speculative- demand and local houses
wore nil decidedly Indifferent buyers , Pro
visions were weak and lower and packers
were trying to get the llvo hog values Into
line. Tlicro was not much of a rungeof
prices. A few of the best heavy butcher
loads brought J4,97'/i and $5 , and rough ,
mixed stuff toward the close sold down lo
? 4.85. Trade dragged along all morning , but
was very mean at the final wind up. Moat
of the fair ta good hogs , regardless of weight ,
brought 34.90 and $1.95 , us ogalnut Jl.'Jf , to
$5 Monday and $5.05 to J5.10 on last Tues
day. Representative nulen :
