CHICAGO , May 31. Southwestern crop
tinnmgo reports , backed by buying from the
BIUIIO section , sent wheat up lc In big
Jumps after the weak opening today.
lleallzliiB shoved the price down again
later , but July closed lie higher. Corn
finished % c higher , oats lie higher nml
ju-ijviKlons at a slight advance.
Wheat honpcd tip and down briskly within
the lic range. Opening tradcB showed a
trllle loss and soon sold down iic more ,
tvhcn a % rally took place , but did not
lioul ; a % c to ? iu decline then snt In , after
Which the price changed but little. The
failure of thu predicted frost to Miow on
the weather map , the lack of any strength
to cables , the prospect of warmer weather
nnd the I'rlco Current's summary nil tended
to develop "bearish" features. The situa
tion changed later , and the rally which fol
lowed was due to the crop news which
continued to pour In via the southwest
with liberal buying orders from that section
SI , I.ouls principally. The Impression
prevailing that a prominent local concern
with elevator Interests was buying freely
through a half dozen brokers also hail a
Mrengthcntng tendency. Thn late conti
nental , markets were weak and lower , however -
over , and took the cdgo oft of the market ,
Iirlccu declining sharply when thu itiota- |
tlons were posted , but the market closed
steady.
Corn wns generally firm all day within
from Vic to % c range. Good demand nnd
the advance In wheat helped the price.
Oats were firmer on good buying , mainly
by shorts. After a % c range the market
closed near the top.
Buying by packers nnd the notion of
wheat caused a firm market In provisions ,
but trade was small and the range narrow.
Compared with l.tst night July pork Is 7',4c '
higher , July lard Co higher , and July ribs
2tic higher.
. Vessel rates to Buffalo were firmer with
a fair demand at lc for corn.
The leading futures ranged as follows ;

nOSTON , Mny 31. The American Wool nnd
Cotton Reporter says cf the wool mnrket ! The
market I * demoralized. It Is hard to say what
wools arc worth today. The quotations for old
wool menu one thing nnd the quotation * for new
wool menu another. Ohio XX Is sold at 22c this
week nnd Michigan X at ISc , but these prices
do not neci'.osnrlly mean the value nf new wools ;
In fact , It seems likely that somewhat less prices
will hate to be accepted. Wo hnvo now reached
n point where we are fncc to fncc with the
question whether wo nre to havit free or dutiable
wonl. This Important mutter pinmliicg lo be set-
tltil either uni > xvny or Ihu oilier within n com-
parntlvely few days , nnd until It Is determined
mnnufacliiiers riinnot be Induced to purchase
one pound more wool than their actual necessi
ties require. If thu bill should fall of passage
nn advanc" In wool would undoubtedly occur ,
while. If It bec'inii's n law , ns now nppenrs
probable , there nre certain smiley on which a
further decline may lw looked for. In thn In-
If I lor the i-xcllcment w ilch hni exlfled mining
buyers nnd rnllcltnrs has quieted down consid
erably during ( ho pnst few da > s. Se\ernl com

STOCKS AND liONDS.
Speculation In .Securities Yesterday Was
Dull anil Uninteresting ; .
NEW YORK , May 31. The speculation on
the Stock exchange today was dull and un
interesting to a degree , the trading In Sugar
and Chicago alone relieving the market from
utter stagnation. What trading was done
was mostly on the short side of the mar
ket , the Influences affecting the speculation
being mainly of an unfavorable character.
Although the sterling exchange mnrket was
a' shade caster In tone , today's ship
ments of gold were Increased unexpectedly ,
bringing the total exports so far this week
up to $3,000,000 , and a similar amount will
go forward , It Is thought , on Saturday. This
had a depressing effect on the market , nnd
the receipt of reports of several railroads ,
which showed decreased earnings for April
heavier than were anticipated , added to the
general weakness. Sugar , while most act
ive of the list , was not extensively dealt In.
After nn early break of 1 per cent n coverIng -
Ing movement was begun , which resulted In
an advance of 1 % per cent. Renewed sell
ing checked the Improvement , and a gradual
decline set In , resulting In tlio loss of the
entire gain. In the final dealings there
was a rally of % per cent , with a reaction
of U per cent at the close , making a decline
of Vs per cent on the day. The preferred
shares lost a similar fraction , The fluctua
tions In the granger shares were within
fractional limits , St. Paul and Hock Island
losing % and ' /d per cent respectively , and
Burlington & Qulncy gaining \'t \ per cent
on the day , and there being nothing done
In Northwestern , Oregon Improvement
broke 2 % per cent. Tlio market at the
close was uteady to firm. The band mar
ket was firm during the morning ; , but be
came easier during the afternoon , and closed
weak.
The Evening Test says : There were some
evidences In today's foreign exchange quota
tion of an eflort to force DIllH on the mar
ket against hlpmcnts of gold to.earnings. .
At any rate It IB clear now that the direct
London withdrawals linvo ceased and that
today's S.L',000,000 export , with probably the
week's earlier shipments , ere destined for
Germany ( ilonc. The open money market
rate at Derlln and Frankfort Is In fact at
present higher than at any other European
center , and It will be remembered that
113,000,000 In gold was shipped to the United
States from Germany to meet the needs
of last Bummer's panicky money market ,
The Evening Post's London cablegram
says ; Today's bank return was the strong
est In every particular ever publtihcd , The
total of coin and bullion was 30,000,000 , the
largest since 1879. The Increuue during the
week was 1,780,000 , of which 1,19 ! > ,000
were In cold and United States coin , but
68,000 came In from Australia and the
remainder from homo circulation and the
usual return from Scotland. The stock mar
kets were Idle today and Americana \vcro
dull and weak. The strength of the bunk
forces up gilt-edged Blocks to fancy prices.
Contois were nearly 101 % , Negotiations
hnvo been practically concluded by a syndi
cate of bankers hero to advance 1,000,000
sterling to the Argentine government to
assist In the payment of Its debt. The
loan In conditional on a satisfactory settle
ment of the Argentine railway guarantees.
The break In Argentines this afternoon was
duo to sale * In Paris on rumors- that the
funded loan would bo paid In scrip. This
Is not believed here.

Receipts of cntllo fell under the cstlmntcB
today , but the run of hogs keeps tip well.
There were no sheep hero. So far this
week , compared with last , there has been
a falling off of about,3,000 cattle and 1,000
sheep , while the Increase lit hog supplies
has been nearly 5,500 head.
The light supply of cattle , the favorable
tone to eastern advices and the good demand
from local dressed beef houses all combined
to make a good , strong , active market.
Shippers and exporters were not In It , but
with such small supplies the stimulus of
outside competition was not necessary to
make a llvtly trade. The movement was
free throughout with prices steady to a
shade stronger than Wednesday on about
everything In the beef steer line.
The cow market was active and firm on
the little good stock here and slow and
weak on common stock. Calves ruled fully
steady , and the market for rough was gen
erally unchanged.
Activity and strength continue to char
acterize the tiade In stoclters and feeders.
The demand has Improved considerably
lately and the market Is In better shape
than for two weeks past. Good to choice
feeders are quoted at from $3 to $3.30 , fair
to good at from $2.75 to $3 , nnd the com
moner grades at from $2.75 down. Repre

HOGS The heavy hog receipts keep up
well , but the quality is suffering. Light
weights predominate and the heavier grades
are getting rather scarce. The market
opened active and strong , with a gocd line
of buyers on hand , but later , as urgent or
ders were filled , the heavy receipts had a
depressing Influence , and prices ruled a
shade easier. The strength In provisions
and good reports from Chicago , however ,
finally caused a good , steady close. At the
opening the hogs sold largely at $1.55 to
$ - .GO. On the weak spot , $ -1.50 to $4.55
bought the hogs , und at the close the popu
lar figure waa $4.55. The big supply was
not long In changing lianas , the big bulk
of the liogs selling at $4.55 , the same as
on Wednesday. On last Thursday the hogs
sold mostly at $4.60 to $4.G5. Representa

PRICES ON COAL.

According to the rciiortH of local coal
men Onmha Is In better ahnpe iia rcgardn
the eonl Rtipply than most any other city
In the country. Jiotli mantifactnrcrM and
coul ( Icali'r.s took alarm when the Htrlkr.s
union ; ; the mlncrH were llrut InauKiiratel
and have been Hlorlng- all the coal they
could net over Hlnce. A ennvnwH of the
Hlliiiillnn now revciils the fact that the
Hinall mannfactiirerh have u Rtipply on
hand adequate to about two weeks run ,
while the heavier consumers arc Hllll bet
tor off. H him been found In most cltl'M
that the supply has held out better thun
was nt Ih'Ht estimated , ns all cnnHimieni
commence to economize as coon as Ihsro
Is danger of a famine , nnd this city mny
bo no exception to the rule. The dealers
have enough cual on linml for dom8ia :
purposes.
Theie Is still a Rood deal of coal ar
riving In the city , though the supply fiom
eastern points has been cut off ent'rely.
nnd It Is from Iowa that this city received
the hulk of Its soft cnal , The mlncri nt
Newcastle , Hock Springs and Hherldan urj
still lieliiR worked , and aru producing1 largo
ciimntlttcs of coal that lu being brought
this way.
While dealers am nshlni ; more money
for certain kinds of coal , there has bc n
no general ndvnnce of the market. In
New York City the market un bituminous
coal Is lower than It was n week ago , iiJUt
operators are predicting thu speedy ter
mination of thu strike.
FRUIT AUCTION.
Tuo Cars of Chorrle * Knlil at Very Loir
1'lgnren.
The largest auction of fruit held In the
city yet took place yesterday at a. m.
There were two curs of cherried , or 2,029
boxes , on sale. The buyers were late In
arriving' , which delayed the culo consider
ably und disgusted those who arrived on
time. The attendance of buyers , however ,
was largo when ( hey had ull put In an ap
pearance.
The quality of the fruit was poor , A
good many of the cherries were small ami
Inferior to start with , besides being over
ripe nnd not good enough for the shipping1
trade ,
While the buyers evidently wanted the
fruit , the suit ) progressed slowly. After u
buyer's bid hud been accepted It would taku
several minutes for the buyer to decldu
what he wanted , and a goml deal of valu
able tlmn would be lost. Kverythtng wn
sold before the close.
Out of the lt lots offered four lots
hrought ( K ) cents ; twelve lots , & 5 cents ;
three loin , W cents ; six lots , 75 centu ; eight
lotx , 70 cents ; twenty-seven lota , 6fi cents ;
iilmi lots , tX ) cents ; sixteen loin , K cents :
thirteen lots , DO cents ; two lots , 45 cents ;
three loin , 4U cents ; two lots , 25 cents.
While tiie prlcea look low cm their fuc-u
they are to ho accounted for by the fact
thut very llttlo of the fruit , ( f any , would
stand reMhlpplDK.
We could not Improve the quality If vrv
paid doublu the price. DoWltt'a WltcU
