Wheat Started with'a Rush on Btrong
Gables ,
DULLISH DOMESTIC NEWS A FEATURE
May Corn Was Dull but Finn nnd the
rirmncss Wnft DUD to Diminishing
Receipts nt Chicago nnd Small
Farmers' Deliveries.
CHICAGO , Dec. 4.-Whcat started up with
A. rush today on strong cables and bullish
domestic ncwa , but the market wns hin
dered by free selling , nnd the price meekly
declined Ic , closing ' o lower for May. May
corn closed > 4o higher , May oats Uo lower
nnd provisions moderate declines. The Paris
markets , as cabled at the opening , were
stronger than had been reported of them
for a very long time. The price hero at
the opening made a Jump of Uc per bu.
The first transactions covered a range of
from Glttc to Cllio for May , with trading nt
both the extremes. Continental markets
\vcra Btendy- Every commission house
appeared to have buying orders nnd for half
nn hour or so the only heavy seller In sight
was Pnrrldge. N. B. Heam final ! came
to Porridge's side and sold long wheat.
The short sellers knocked the bull feeling
Inspired for the foreign situation entirely
out , and the price went down from ClVio to
COftc for May. The domestic news was
bullish , as well as the foreign. Dry weather
was reported to bo doing extensive Injury
to fall sown wheat. The market , under
continued selling , dropped to GOftc , nnd then
to C0 > c , closing nt C0c.
May corn wns dull but firm , nnd the
firmness was due to diminishing receipts
here nnd small deliveries nt country points
from farmers. Hccelpta from farmers were
4S3 cars. The estimated receipts for to
morrow are only 250 cars. The cpenlnR
price for May was 49c , compared with
49'Ao nt the close yesterday. It advanced to
48c. pold off to 49 } c , rose to 49c , nnd In
hyrnpnthy with the weakness In wheat ,
closed nt from 49'fcc ' to 49c.
A fair trade wns done In oats , nnd wltli
but little disposition to sell , a llrmcr feeling
Is reported. Selling was scattered , prin
cipally local. Mny started at 32yiC , sold nl
32ic , down to 32c to 324c , nnd closed nl
32c.
Provisions were weak at the start and
were heavy during the entire , session , bul

Talk of gold shipments had perhaps a sllfh

, ' TUESDAY , Dec. 4.
There wns a comparatively light run of
cattle today nnd no sheep , but n heavy
supply of hogs. The two days' receipts , com
pared with a week ngo , show n loss of about
1,300 cattle , and a gain of 4,000 hogs and
1,000 sheep.
Dealers were somewhat disappointed nt
the smallness of the supply of cattle today.
On account of Monday's sharp advance they
had expected a good run , whereas the re
ceipts fell fully 1,600 short of last Tuesday.
Sellers were naturally bullish nnd wanted
an advance , which buyers were unwilling
to concede on nccottnt of their somewhat
limited necessities , as well as on account ol
the less favorable news from Chicago.
Trade was consequently by no means ac
tive , although In general Monday's strong
prices were firmlyheld nnd a fairly gooil
nnd tolerably early clearance effected. Be
yond a load of good 1,368-lb. beeves thai
brought $1.33 , and another bunch that would
probably have brought more If sold , thert
wns nothing strictly good on sale , and $3.2 !
to J3.75 bought most of the warmed up nm
partly fatted stock , of which the offering !
were largely composed.
The cow market wns Indifferently suppllcc
nnd practically steady. Strong on fair t <
choice butchers' cows and heifers nnd weal
on common nnd canning grades. Cornfei
western cows sold up to $3.10 , and pool
heifers down to SOc. Calves were In llmltet
supply nnd demand and weak. IJulls , stags
etc. , sold nt about steady prices.
There was a fair degree of activity li
stackers nnd feeders. Stlllers were the prln
Ipal buyers , as there was only a llmltet
ountry demand. Prices ruled firm on thi
eslrable offerings of all weights and mower
ewer on common stock. Good to cholci
coders are quotable at from $2.70 to $3.2C
air to good from $2.33 to $2.00 , and commoi
grades from $2.25 down. Representative

Only a Feir Cnttlo Wcro Wanted by
Shipper. * .
CHICAGO , Dec. 4. Only a few cattle were
wanted by shippers nnd the requirements of the
local radc were limited. Prices .were steadily
held all around , no descriptions showing a quot
able change from yesteidny's prices. Froin $1.25
to J1.50 for lean , old cows , prices ranged up
ward to J0.25 for fancy Christmas steers , but
not much business was done outside of the limits
offrom J1.75 to J."i,25. the prcvnlllng prices being
from J1.75 to J2.65 for cows , heifers and bulls ,
nnd from (3.75 to J5 for steers. The close was
rather easy.
Lower prices had to bo accepted for hogs. For
the weaker condition the heavy receipts were
responsible. The market started In at a decline
of from 5C to lOc , nnd later nvernsed lOc lower ,
the clofp being weak nt from JI.40 to J4.70 for
common to best heavy nnd from 11.25 to JI.60
for common to choice llRht weights. Sales of
heavy and medium weights were principally nt
from J4.55 to J4.73 , and from JI.40 to J4.50 bought
most of the 150 to 200-lb. hogs.
The sheep market wns strong for both sheep
nnd lambs , prices being from 6c to 25c higher all
around. About 10,000 were received today , and
as yeterda > 's 20,000 head were well bought up ,
the market was decidedly lively. Today quota
tions were from 51. W to J3.50 for common to
extra sheep nnd from 52 to (1.25 for lambs , from
(3.50 to (4.15 taking most of the latter.
