CHICAGO , April 4-ncnrlsli ntntlstlca ana
favorable reports on the growing wheat
crop wero. offset In that market today by
the belief that the present May corner was
proving a success , and fear that a corner
la July was in process of formation. July
closed Ichlg'ner and May tic 'nlgher Jn
consequence. Other markets were strong ,
partly with wheat , corn and oats advanc
ing U@Vic each , and provisions closing 10 ®
22'/ic higher. ,
Wheat started at nn advance of > ! $ % <
.for July at 84'84c. ' . After a few tno
meats of hesitation , during which time t'nc
price toiu/ncd 4c , the market assumed a
decidedly bullion aspect , nnd under uctlyo
general buying , July being pushed up
ntcadlly to Vi % 8Jic , the price being
reached before the end of the Ilrst hour's
trading , liuycrs nnd sellers were quite
equally divided ut ilrst. Tup world's ship
ments were large , oven without I ml In. being
jiut at 7,021.000 bu. Thu Orange Judd Farmer
report on the crop condition put the aver
age ut sa per cent. This was not BO bear
Ish aa pxpsctetl , but ax the average uns the
ftlghcst In covn years It had Its effect.
Northwest recrlptH were fairly liberal , 3.11
cats , against i2o ! last week nnd 210 a your
go. CYllcago rceelpta were Cf cars. There
W.IH iinotber large addition to the contract
utoek todny , 51 cars coming from reoulnr
Boincp ? , walk1 mixing houses contilbuted
! tl cars and 3.1.&CO bu. , n total of about 108-
00 bu. On the other hand , Liverpool wag
% pence higher for spot wheat , though
tfutnrcH wore Irregular. The strength shown
by Ktocks was toe real Incentive for the
early buying by the crowd. Then another
fai-tor was developed. Honvy buying of
3ate , w'nlcli has been credited to Armour ,
was continued todny , and strengthened the
Tiellef that a corner In July , similar to the
one In May , wan In process of formation.
The belief In this was general enougi to
ecare shortH , who made a concerted rush
to cover when what was supposed to ba
nn Armour buying was reported. Offerings
tvcrt mucYi too limited for this demand , am
the advance to % ( $ % resulted. A
amirUt'd reaction then followed. India iihlp
incuts riither wtntgettd the bulls , exports
from that country being placed at about
1,000,000 bu. Another big surprise wns the
Increase of 102,000 bu. In the visible sup
ply. The trade had been led to expect a
decrease of about 1SCO,000 bu. Quito free
realizing took place , the price being forced
off to SJG. Hi-re t'ne maiket turned again
nnd the highest prices were reported about
noon , July getting up to SSTic. Loiter re
ported further cnsh sales of about 60X000
lui. Atlantic clearances amounted to 31G-
100 bu. Tno flrmnesa cf the continental nnd
ILIverpool markets at the close also had
n good rffect , Liverpool being Hiild up on
spot wheat , with futures H'fiSsd ' hlB'ner.
Paris was up MilO centimes , and Antwerp
was HTMiM centime ! ! UlKlicr. I.ato In the
Oay anotdcr spell of realizing caused a
Teni'tlon In July to Kl'/iC , that price belns
reached near the close. July clobcd nt
Torn was Influenced mainly by the action
of wheat , 'finding was quite uctlvc early ,
wlt'n doubling up on some linpoitant long
linen , and prices advanced materially.
T-heie was also nn uigent demand fiom
shorts. Clearances were heavy nnd local
receipts light. Ileallzlng later caused some
recession , but the market closed linn. May
ranged from 2 M2Uc to I9) ) c and closed
Wtt'/iC hltricr at 29c.
Oats were linn , but very Inactive , hardly
anything more than a little scalping and
changing trade. Light receipts nnd t'ne
BtrenfJtb of wheat weie the Influences. May
ranged from 25"&u " to W&C and closed ' / & ©
* Ac higher at SOlic.
Provisions were decidedly active. Prices
alvanctd sharply during t'no morning under
the Influence ot llpht hog receipts nnd
t mall stocks , ibuylns being general. Offer-
, in a were Yienvy nt the top and a sharp
reaction followed , but the market later
llrmcd up again under n renewed demand
and closed steady. Jh > y pork closed 22'c
higher at W.la , May lard 12' ' c higher at
$3.X % and May ribs lOo hUher nt.JJ.-Ti.

NEAV YORK , April 4 The Interest nnd * lv
rlnclpnl activity In tic stock mnrket today
wns In Iho Ilrst hour. The bulge at the opor-
ng wns caused by the Fcrnmble to cxecuto
nil buying orders nt once for several thousand
shares In each of the b-adlng stocUs. Th
onlers were placed by frightened lienrs , who
saw a warning In the \ery buojnnt tone IB-
sumed by American securities on foreign ex-
charges , and who hud In mind the fame ex
periences of the Bhnrts Inat Monday. Upon
; he execution of th * e orders , the rmrkft
promptly raid off again. The decline was nr-
restcd when rather mon > than one-half of the
mUanco had be < > n wlpo-1 cut. Transactions tcr
the remainder of the day were small , nnd specu
lation wns nnirow outflde of a few stoll > i.
Notwithstanding Ihe later weakness net gilns
of from 1 to 2 per rent were sn\ed for ni-arlr
nil the nctlse Htoclta. The opening Jump In
prices wns In sympathy with the buoyancy of
Amerlcnna In foreign exchanKert , where the re
ported mediation of the pope between the Unite 1
States and Spain wnslcwcd ns of the ut
most Importance. This Impoitance wns en-
bnnced by the fuel that the reports given cut
from Spanish sources Imd It that th" pope1- ;
mediation wn offered nt the requc-st of the
United Hlntei. The sentiment for peaceful ad
justment , which found expression In many pul
pits In fills country nt Sunday's religious serv
ices , tended to give color to the peaceful out
look. l'iofeslonnl stork trndera who were nfter
the bears' scalps were also very busy dlsxom-
Inatlrs nn allegation that President McKlnley
had determlneil to embody n recommendation
ngnlnst war or forcible Intervention In Cuba
In his forlhcomlnpr mcvugo. The cnrlyli > w , U
was soon believed , hud exaggerated ilia posM'
bllltle.s of peicc. Tlio olllrlnl donlnl from V'ah
Ington that the pope had been accepted ns a
mediator between the United States nnd Spnln
was potent In dispelling this Uew. Expression *
by men In Washington , who are strenuous for
firm action on the Cubnn case , nnd who ex
prcrsed contentment with t'ao president's prob
able action , urge the administration to Insist
on Cubnn Independence. TVIP active measure
taken by the pope was felt to , offer a nowsl'
means of Influencing Spain to ylold to 4
demands of the United States , esp claVy as the
Vatican reports heretofore Inclined toward the
granting of Cubanilndepondence. rrhls constituted
the sustaining force , which sa\ed the markel
fromnfull reaction of Its opening gains. The bond
market was dull , and after opening strong prices
eased off a llttlo , but stiffened ngtim fceor ( -

! NBW YOIIK , April 4. There wns a scramble
of rhorln on the call this 'mornlne ' In the cot
ton market as a recult of the unexpected 1m
provnnwnt In the English .nrarket. Opening
sales de\ elected an advance of 60S points , with
the market decidedly nrm. .Liverpool . epressn
lives were active buyers around 'the opening
and continued to purchase cotton-.pretty much
all the day. With the satisfaction of early or
ders prices began to sag lunder lack of supiMrt
of nny description nnd by midday the earlj
Improvement had been reduced to a matter of
3ff4 points. According to cables the butter feel-
Ins at Liverpool was due to n feellnc that 'thL
pope had been accepted by the United States
and Riwln In the Spanish-American controvert )
and on the moro peaceful outlook In the China
situation. Cables attributed a partial leactlon
In Liverpool to accounts relating to the pope
an n mediator. In the afternoon speculation was
cxtri-mrly llitht. The clo e was steady at a net

looked over the cattle , but they did not
seem to think that there were enough to pay

compared with o her marlccts. That gave
the oca ! packers an opportunity to bear the
market nnd itho trnde In consequence w.i
not ns brisk ns last week. Stlil the packers
wanted the. cattle and In the end they had
to pay pretty close to last week's prices.
though as a matter of fact the market was
not so brisk , nor was the feeling so s'.rong
as It was at tha close of last meek.
There , were hardly enough cows and
heifers In the yards to make n test of the
market. One thing was certain , however ,
prices ware no lower on that kind of stock
nnd the demand ivaa good. The offerings
were all taken early.
There were very few stock cattle In the
yards , but ths few to be had sold nt Jus
