CIHfJAtlO , May 23 Wlic.it was unsettled
ar.il nervous , wlililn n fto range toilay ami
closed % c lower. Tim uneasiness waa due
to favorable c.roi ) reports , free offerings nnd
IOWIT oniclal cable * , ami overcame n tern-
pornry advance caused by encouraging pri
vate cable ndvlccs. Corn closed ! ,4c higher ,
oats tic higher nnd provisions Mlglitly
higher all nrotind.
Oponlng trades In wheat allowed % c loss
and the market sold down a fraction more ,
rallied from % e to % c. worked back from
> .c to % ? , rallied a little and closed easy.
The uneasiness at the start was due to the
various stale bulletins being more favorable
than expected. Early Liverpool cables were
dull and lower , and this added weakness to
the situation. Outside market * all opened
lower , and offerings from the start were
heavy , while the Inquiry was rather limited.
The demand picked up later and the top
prices of the day were scored on private
cables , which reported the German govern
ment as having Issued a report which made
the crop condition there unfavorable , nnd
the damage by frosts serious and prices ad
vancing. A reaction set In and prices were
not maintained when the official cables were
posted , which showed Ilerlln off from % c
to I.e. Closing prides were near the bot-
Corn was generally firm all day. The
strength was chiefly on the theory that the
movement Is liable to fall off In the Im
mediate future , influenced by the prospective
advance In rates from Kansas and Nebraska
points , and also to the fear of damage by
drouth to the recently planted crop In parts
of Iowa and Nebraska. The bulletins also
Indicated some damage to corn by the late
freeze. The market opened with a frac
tional loss , but almost Immediately recovered
nnd sold up % e , fell off a little , advanced
lie und closed at the top ,
Oats were firmer at the start , advancing
from % e to % e on light offerings , later re
acting from He to % c on Increased offer
ings.
ings.Lower prices for live hogs caused a mod-
crate decline In provisions at the opening.
This WPS followed by n further decline In
sympathy with the weakness In wheat , fol
lowed by a partial reaction on the report
that the coal strike had been declared oft.
Attempted covering by those who had sold
early created strength later , the market
closing at the outside prices of the dny and
rather active. Compared with last July pork-
is lOc , July lard Co und July ribs lOu higher.
Vessel rates were steady at ll.o for wheat
and Itle for corn to Uuffalo. Demand only

STOCKS AND IIONUS.
Wnll Street Spfeiihitlon Wns acnernlly
Stronu nn l Deeliledly Active.
NEW VOIIK. Mny 23.-Wnll street Bpec-
illation today was generally strong and ile-
cltleilly active. Henctlons , duo mainly to
realizations of jirolits , took place at Inter
vals , and there was an occasional bear
rtrlvo which sent prices down temporarily ,
but there were buyers for all the stock *
uttered , and after each rfecllno came a rally
which established a higher range of values.
Kxcoptlons to this rule
were found In Borne
of the specialties , which moved erratically
nnd In a few cases recorded declines on the
Uay. London was a purchaser In round
amounts of the arbitrage stocks , chlelly of
St. Paul , Louisville & Nashville. Union Pa-
cine und AtcM-on. Chicago was also a
heavy buyer of St. Paul , supposedly for the
account of prominent railway men In that
city , who anticipate good result from the
meeting of railway managers to bo held In
that city tomorrow.
The general market was helped upward
by the expectation of a settlement of tha
rate question for some tlmo to come by this
conference , and the bulls used the meeting
for all there was In It. and perhaps more.
hugar was again taken In hand by the clique
and moved upward on reports from Wash
ington that the senate would shortly P.IBS
the tariff hill with the clause protecting the
refilling Interests , ami that the house would
accept the senate amendment- . Rumors
that the coal strike was approaching a set
tlement affected the shares of the anthracite
roads favorably , Chicago Qas was bought
by outsiders on the belief that there would
bo no further efforts to Interfere with the
payments of dividends. Cordage was stronger
on reports to the effect that arrangements
had been affected with manufacturers out.
IUe of the trust to maintain prices. All tb
Influences aflectlug the market were read
In a favorable light by lh < ) traders , nnil
hutico the trend of price * was upward. Jur-
Ing the nUcrnoon llio buying was nt times
very strong , but In the final dealings ro.ill--
lug sales caused n general reaction , nnd the
mnrlict closed easier nt n decline ot M to
1 4 per cent from tlio hsst prices of the tiny.
The bond market was n trldo hravy during
the morning , but became stronger In the
afternoon nnd closed at the best of the dny.
Tho' Kvenlng Post says ! As a piece of
expert strategy , today's movement of the
stock market was Interesting In n rare de
gree. The significance of today's recovery

haps Brent ; Us most Important meaning Is
that outside Investors as n class nro quite
as reluctant now to sell their stocks ns they
were three weeks ago. Indeed , It mny bo
said that the lower prices go under the In
fluence of n raid , the less disposed outsiders
are to sell actual holdings.

Supplies of oil -kinds continue fairly
liberal , receipts for the past three days
showing nn Increase of COO cattle , 1,100
sheep nnd 3WO hogs over the first half of
last week ,
The run of cattle was not very heavy , but
following Tuesday's liberal supply and In
the face of a heavy run and a lower market
at Chicago , 3,100 cattle were too many , nnd
prices ruled lower , with a slow , dull trado.
All classes of buyers were In the market ,
but all wanted the cattle lower , and started
In bidding lower prices from the first. The
general average of prices bid and paid was
about a dime lower than Tuesday. Some
of the nice , tidy , fat steers that nro always
In good demand , did not sell a great deal
off , while on the other hand , 10e would
hardly cover the decline on some of the less
desirable heavy cattle. In fuel , there were
a few coarse half fat cattle here that could
hardly bo moved nt any price. There wan
a very weak tone to the trade , and business
dragged along through the greater part of
the day , ft few common cattle being still
unsold at the close.
There was nothing new In the market for
cows and mixed stock. Offerings were di'-
cldedly limited , nml with n good general
demand they changed hands readily at fully
steady prices all around. A good many
calves were offered and sold at steady to a
shade easier prices. In rough stock , prices
showed no quotable change.
The trading In stockers and feeders was
mostly confined to yard traders , and was
very slow at that. Dry weather Is paralyz
ing this branch of the trade , us It decreases
the country demand , and at the same time
Increases the supply. There were lots of
stale cattle In the yards , and the fresh re
ceipts Included a good many very decent
westerns coming from ns far west nsash -
Ington and Oregon. There sold at from * 3
to $3.50. A week ago the same cattle would
have sold readily at from ? 3.-5 to $3.80.
The demand Is nt present poor , the supply
large , nnd prices fully n quarter lower than
last week. Representative sales :

HOGS Uecolpts today did not differ ma
terially from Tuesday's run , cither In quan
tity or quality. With nearly .3,000 hogs In
the three days , lower prices were almost In
evitable , and the 5o to lOc decline today did
not take salesmen by surprise. A heavy
run and a lower market In Chicago gave
buyers their cue , and they started In pound
ing hard. Local packers led the proces
sion , but a vigorous shipping demand made
business lively , and nearly a third of the
offerings were sorted up nnd reshlpped east.
The tip top paid was ? 1.GO , nnd several of
the common mixed loads early wnnt at
$ M5. For fair to good hogs of all weights ,
the market was $4.50 to $4.55. Huylng was
free , and local buyers , who wore the most
bearish early , had , ; ! > /.hustle to .flH their
orders late , the resuli uelng a strong , active
close , with $1.55 a very popular figure. The
pens wore cleared .earft' , the hogs selling
largely at $1.50 to fl.GS ; as against $4.515 to
$ ICO Tuesday , and $4".7S one week ago today.

nt from $3.73 to $4 for sti-ti-H. There were be
tween 1,800 and 2,000 Texan rattle on Bale. They
were taken at steady prices. The stocker and
feeder market was easy and veal calves were
II rm.
Trading In hops was active , but at n matet tally
lower ranee of prices. The reduction varied
from Ce to li'c and averaged quite lOc. As hlRh

J4.SO was practically the top for the market any

nt the decline. Krom J4.65 to $4.73 rnrrlml away
the most of the IIORS. Poor stuff Hold at from
} 4.W to JI.GO , and there was very little demand
for culls at from J3 to' J4.40. The quality was
rather. common. .
