Wheat Was Dizzy Yesterday as a Eesult of
the Great
BOTTOM VERY SUDDENLY FELL OUT
Corn IVus I'nlrly Artlvn mid Strong In the
Ff.ce of Itccclptu of Nenrly One
Thouinml Cam and Absence of
Shipment Ilcmanil ,
CHICAGO , Mny 21. Wheat wns dizzy to
day ns a result of the great rise which It
has experienced within the past few days.
The news wns nearly nil bullish , nnd higher
prices were logically to be looked for , but
trade hns become accustomed to declines ! .
Consequently , when the market showed a
tendency to waver nt the top today there
was a rush of longs and shorts to sell nml
a tumble of Zc. Fluctuations were very
frequent throughout the session , but the
close showed nn advance of VjC over yester
day. Corn , though advanced by wheat to
Bomo extent , was more directly Influenced
by the frosts and Inclined to greater steadi
ness than wheat , closing ' , ic higher tlutn
yesterday. Oata nro ' , lc lower ; pork l"ic
Jowcr ; lard , 12c , and ribs , 13c lower.
Wheat opened weak , with sellers at from
73o to 72iic for July , but there were numer
ous buyers for a matter of half an hour or
BO who evidently looked for a repetition of
the sequences to nil the recent breaks In
the price. They were not disappointed.
Wheat recovered to 74Vic , but what occurred
In the next half hour rather upset the cal
culations of thp crowd. After hanging be
tween 73 40 and "SVaC for about twenty min
utes succeeding the bulge to 74',8c , It took
a BU'ldcn dip to 73 ! < .c , recovered to 734c ,
broke again to 7.1'ic ' , but quickly dropped so
far that the last named figures app ° ared to
bo nwny up on the top of an inaeesslb'.e
mountain. It went down to 7Uic. It took
about thirty minutes to tumble % c. The
volatile character of the market was well
maintained throughout the session , for by
12 o'clock the price hail again climbed to
73c. The great strength of July wheat nt St.
Louis , where the traders are In close touch
with the crop conditions In the best part of
the winter whent country , did much to keep
up the courage of the bulls. There was
nothing , In fact , In receipts or shipments ,
foreign advices or domestic crop conditions
which could ho construed unfavorably to
holders of wheat. On the contrary , the gen
eral tenor of the news favored still higher
prices , The only thing that was advanced
against the price wns that It had prown
too rapidly , nnd that after n 25c rise It
should react Cc at once. The scalpers , big
nnd little , were of the latter opinion , and
hence the early and sub. < cqu xnt br.nk . Liv
erpool , 'London , I'arls and Herlln all quoted
higher prices. The .Minneapolis and Duluth
receipts were 215 cars , compared with 32G
n year ago. The exports of wheat and
Hour from the Atlantic ports were equal to
420,000 bu. , of which 200,000 bu. wns In the
form of Hour. The only matter of a bear
ish character which was brought to the
notice of the trade was the week's move
ment from the exporting countries of the
world , which amounted to 8,000.000 bu. , In
cluding the 2,400,000 bu. sent from this coun
try nnd Canada. The estimated weekly re
quirements of the Importing nations amount
to (1,700,000 ( bu. The reports of crop damage
nnd the professional selling fought each
other foot to foot -throughout the entire
session , nnd ns the end approached the mar
ket developed most extreme nt-rvojjii ss. It
rushed on down between 73c nnd 73c , tak
ing only a few minutes to go from one ex
treme to the other , nnd finally closed at
73r > c. %
Corn was fairly active and strong In the
face of receipts of 017 cars and absence of
demand for round lots for shipment. It was
a local scalping trade , principally In the
pit , with the fluctuations over a ranpe of
I'fec , and those for the most part following
In the wake of the price changes In wheat.
July , from KHfce and f > 3ic near the opening ,
rose to filHe , dropped to Kc ! , rose In the
afternoon to Glc , nnd closed nt 5lc , or tie
higher than It did yesterday.
Oats were active. Longs were again sell
ing nnd shorts buying. Orders from the
country to buy were also numerous. Bad
crop reports were Influential In causing the
urgent country demand for oats. While ths
market experienced lower values through
out , nnd closed from \\c to % c under yes
terday's last quotations , fluctuations were
ruled entirely by whent and corn. The cash
mnrket for oats was very weak , prices be
ing about Ic lower , and the feeling extended
Into the speculative crowd. Consequently
the lower prices and n comparatively llrm
tone. July told from 29V c to 2ic and rested
at 29''ic.
Provisions were moderately active , but
weaker. The start was at a decline com-
Cared with yesterday's closing prices of 20c
i pork and about lOc In lard and ribs. The
estimated run of hogs for tomorrow being
25,000 , tended to produce the easier feeling ,
but the receipts this morning were only
21,000 , nnd they were quoted firm at 5c ad
vance. I'ork , after a temporary rally ot
7lfcc , dropped 22V.C. then recovered a little
nnd closed for July at $12 Co sellers , com
pared with $12.S2'4 on the day before. Lard
nt the close had lost 12V4c and ribs from
12Vfc to IGc.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow : Wheat :
38 cars ; corn , 100 cars ; oats , 305 cars ; hogs ,
35,000 head.

NEW YORK , May 21. The share speculation
on the Block exchange today was quiet nt th
opcnlnK. and the first prices made were a shade
lower than the cltelng figures of yesterday. The
epresslon wa largely due to the selllnn for for.

TUESDAY , May 21.
There was a run of 151 cars today , a very
respectable supply of cattle , the heaviest
run of hogs In nearly three months , and n
fair supply of sheep.
There were twice ns many cattle on sale
as were here n week -ago , and fnlr to pretty
good cornfed natives constituted the bulk
of the offerings. The market had more life
and a decidedly better feeling pervaded the
trade , although prices were hardly quotably
higher than Monday for any particular
grade of cattle. Dressed beef men were
partial to the handy weight steers , nnd read
ily paid good , firm figures for such as
suited them , while , on the other hand , there
was a general disposition to neglect the
heavier grades , shippers especially being
somewhat backward , owing to the doubtful
tone to eastern advices. Choice 1,300-lb.
beeves sold around $3 to $3.15 , and the bulk
of the fair to good bef stock sold nt from
$1.25 to $1.00.
Good , fnt cows nnd heifers sold at strong
prices , but btiyrrs are discriminating more
and more against the thin grassy stock , nnd
prices for such ruled lower. The market
for veal calves was actlvp and strong , with
no particular change In the trade In bulls ,
stags nnd rough stock ,
Stock nnd feeding cattle were more or
less of a drug on the market , owing to the
very limited country demand , occasioned by
the long dry spell , which hns hurt pasture
some. Prices are all of lOc to 15c lower than
last week. C.ood to choice feeders are quot
able at $3.40fi3.80 ; fair to good , $3.00ijr3.40 , and
common grades from $3 down. Uepresent-

HOGS The run of" linen ttiday was. something
like It ought to be. Ordinarily 7,523 hogs would
not be considered a heavy supply , but "it was a
larger number than haVe been here In nearly
three months , or since March 1 , when 8,224 head
arrived. In twth quality and welRht the ofTer-
InRS were fully up to , If not above , the recent
average- . There was an ncthe local and ship
ping demand , and with good muikets east the
trade ruled brisk at full Monday's prices. Tin-
ton was J4.57',4. and there were several go. . d
loads that broucht J4.6j. The heavy and butclirr

of good receipts tomorrow kept numerous buy

IS. & M. Crop Rnport.
Crop reports compiled In the office of the
general manager of the IJ. & M. for the week
ending May 18 , show the following conditions as
prevailing along the Burlington system In Ne
braska and the Black Hills country :
Wyoming Division Ravenna to Seneca : No
rain since last report. Weather has been very
cool , with two eliaip frosts , Corn , oats nnd
potatoes suffered some on account of frosts , but
not seriously. Nothing fs growing In this lo
cality , owing both to cold weather and lack of
moisture. The ground Is getting dry , and unless
there Is rain noon the small grain will be
seriously Injured. There Is a good acreage of
both corn and potatoes , nnd while neither crop
has suffered for want of rain yet , both nro
standing still. Grass Is not doing well , except
In the Immediate vicinity of Seneca. No rain
In the vicinity of Alliance since last report , and
the outlook Is bad. Good average crop of pota
toes planted nnd many are up and were injured
by the frost. From Hemlngford to An ! in ore
weather has been cold and dry ; nothing doing
well. Good acreage of potatoes planted. In the
vicinity of Moorecroft and Clearmont grass is
doing well. Ill the vicinity of Clearmont acre
age of potatoes will be half more than last
year. At Crow agency such crops as are raised
are looking well. Report from Billings indicates
that oats , potatoes and wheat are In fine condi
tion. Such stuff as they raise on the Deadwood
line Is looking well.
Western Division The past week has
been a cold and dry one , with no moisture except
a few local showers In some few portion * . In
general , the. small grain crop on the western
division bids fair to IK > a complete failure. The
acreage of corn Is quite large and more is being
planted , Considerable corn Is already up am
looking well , but Is needing rain. The acreage
of potatoes Is about the same as In former
years , and this crop is looking fairly well thus
far. Alfalfa Is also doing nicely. We are much
In nerd of rain , however , on all parts of the
illvlsoti , and unless we get moisture soon It
will be too late to help crops very much.
Nortlnrn Division The past week has
been rather unfavorable for crops generally. Con
tinued dry weather has brought small grain tea
a point where It canont stand much more with
out Injury * The cool weather has retardec
growth , and the frost. If U did no serious ap
parent damage to field crops , has certainly done
no good , to say nothing of the Injury to frul
and garden truck. Potatoes are coming out ul
right , although nipped by the frost. Planting Is
weli advanced , and with plenty of heat am
moisture things will boom , but the heat and
moisture cannot come any too soon.
Southern Division The dry , cold weather
of the past week has greatly retarded the growth
of crops of all kinds. Corn and potatoes have
b n considerably damaged by frosts In some
localities , but with warm weather and plenty
of moisture will come out all right. Nu 1m
provement in condition of. wheat.

nn THE WKK
The week has been cold nnd dry nnd very
unfavorable for the growth of vegetables.
The temperature has been steadily below
the normal throughout the wcck , ranging
from 6 degrees ) below the normal In the
western portion of the state to 8 degrees
below In the eastern. There have been se
vere frosts on sevpra nights , doing morn
or ICFS damage to fruit and vegetables , and
even to Held crops.
The rainfall has 'been very deficient ,
amounting to only n trace over much of
the state and nowhere sulllclent to do much
good.
Small grain In most sections Is suffering
considerably from the drouth , although In
some localities , where there has been a
good amount of moisture In previous weeks ,
It Is reported na In good condition. Uye
nnd winter wheat are generally heading out
low , nnd In some counties in the south
western section It Is being plowed up to
plant to corn.
Corn has made little or no growth , owing
to the cold weather , and the late planted
In many localities Is waiting for rain In
order to germinate. Potatoes that were
hurt by the frosts last week have shown
some signs of recovery , but the weather
has been too cold to show much Improve
ment In most crops , nnd continued frosts
during the present week have done some ad
ditional damage. Reports by counties :

WASHINGTON , May 21. The federal govern
ment crop bulletin Issued today says : Evcrywhero
east of the Rocky mountains the week ending
May 20 was cooler than usual , and from the
Missouri valley eastward over the noithcrn and
central portions ot the country It wns decidedly
cool , the average dally temperature deficiency
exceeding six degrees per day In the * Missouri
valley and all districts east of the Mississippi
except nlong the gulf coast nnd in eastern
Maine , where It was Komowhat UFrom the
upper Mississippi vnlley eastward over the Ohio *
valley region , Tennessee nnd the middle Atlantic
states , the average dally temperature ranged
from nine to fourteen degiee3 below normal ,
the deficiency lelng grvntfst In the central Ohio
\alley. The week was nlsa cooler thiin usual on
the California coast , but over the eastern portion
tion of that state and through > ut the plntcnti
and north Pacific region It wns wanner than
usual , the temperature excess ranging from
three to six degrees per day over the greater
purtloa of this leglcci , being greatest over north
ern Nevada. The minimum temperatures on the
llth nt n number of stations In the upper Missis
sippi nnd Ohio valleys were the lowest that
liavo been reorded during the second decade of
May , since observations were begun , and thcso
occutrlng on the 17th In the middle Atlantla
states were nt some stations the lowest recorded
during thu period mimed. The southern limit
of freezing weather extends fr nil Northern Colorado
rado to southern Minnesota nnd thence through
northern Illinois and southern Michigan to south
ern New England.
The rainfall during the week ending Mny
20 at 8 p. m. was Ito-low the average over the
Kieflter portion of the country. There was ,
however , more than ( be usual nm Hint of rain
nlong the Atlantic CJnst from the Cnntllnnw to
southern New Jersey and the southern New Entr-
land const , nlso over portions of Texas , nlong1
the enst gulf const , In centrnl Missouri nnd
over ft pirtlon of the lower lake region. Over
the northern portion of' the Gulf states nnd
from tho- upper Ohio valley westward over thi >
upper lake region and upper Mississippi valley
tlm rainfall was decidedly below the average ,
and prnctlciilly no rain fell from Oklnhomn north
ward over Knnsns , Nebraska nnd South Dakota.
Except light showers nenr them > uth of the
Columbia river nnd over fl' limited area In south
ern Cnllfornln. there wns no rnln dining the
week on the Pacific coast.
The exceptionally cc < il weather of the past
week hns been very unfavorable for most crops
nnd widespread Injury baa been done by frosts
which have been general lliroiiRlnut the northern
nnd central portions of the country nnd ns far
south ns the northern portions of Georgia , Ala
bama and Mississippi , The damage to the
grape crop has been especially heavy In New
York nnd Pennsylvania , and fruits generally
liavo suffered In all northern nnd centrnl dis
tricts. Corn hns suffered serlouslv ; much replanting -
planting will be necessary , nnd where not In
jured by frosts Its growth has been checked
and the plant yellowed.
Option has also suffered much fnm the un
seasonably cold weather throughout the cotton
region ; Its growth hns been retarded and cold
nights hnvo killed ft part of the crop In the
Carollnns nnd Georgia , rendering replanting nec
essary. /
Spring wheat Is reported In excellent condi
tion nnd lias not been unfavorably nffected In
North Dakota. Winter wheat suffered Injury
from frost In Indlnna n/nd / Missouri ; In Illinois )
the crop Is less promising than heretofore and
no Improvement tins been experienced In KnnsaH
and Nebrnskn. Mor * > satisfactory reports are ,
however , received from Arkansas. Tennessee
nnd Michigan. Some tobneco hns been planted
In Tennessee nnd Kentucky ; plants are small
but plentiful In Maryland.
