CHICAGO , April 18.-.Wheat today felt
the heavy liquidation of hut week. The
elimination of a largo part of the short In
terest and generally favorable crop reports
had a sutllclcntlyxleprogBlng Influence on the
znarkct to causa a closing decline In July
of ' ,4c. Tno coarser grain markets were
Btrong , especially corn , which advanced % c.
Oats closed % c higher. Provisions were
alagruirrt and closed at practically un
changed prices.
A rather easy feeling was noticeable at
the opening In wheat. With the exception
of California , almost the entire country re
ported crop prospects aa bright , with t'ne
weather perfect for farming operation ! ) .
Prospective buyers were also held In check
for the time being from the fact that Liver
pool , although opening at n good advance ,
had lost about all of It before trading com
menced here. But the Incipient weakness
etivo way to strength almost before the
market got under way. Tlie bis bull factor
of last week , the foreign dcm.uid for Ameri
can grain , was again very much In evidence ,
it being stated that everything ottered ot
wheat , corn , rye and oats was accepted In
the continental markets ut peed prices. This
evidence of determination on thu part ot the
foreigners to get all the grain possible be
fore the outbreak of expected hostilities re
sulted In u very general buying movement ,
In w'nlch St. Louis shorts were quite promi
nent , and which continued for a good halt
Jiotir. As offerings were small and In
scattered lots prices advanced easily. July
opened at SGftjjWiaC. or n shade under Sat
urday's closing price. Before selling be
came heavy enough to cause a turn the
market had advanced to H7-lc. That proved
to ba the high price of file day. Realizing
on the advance became quite heavy , even
before top prices were reached. The liquida
tion was augmented by the tlgures of the
world's shipments , 8SM,000 bu. These
Jlgures showed that Europe was getting fno
bulk of Its wheat from other countries be
sides America. The early buying pressure
soon dropped oft In a mntitsctl degree , and
it became evident that the heavy liquidation
of last week had almost eliminated the
short Interest. This In Itself encouraged a
{ rood deal of selling , and thong' , ! the market
received support from scalpers at times
Jarso enough to cause fair reactions the
tendency of the market In the main was
downward for the rest of the session. After
the advance to 87o a decline to 8G-ic fol-
Jnwcd. and for a time the market was held
nt a slight advance over that price. .Before
31:30 : July had dropped to S&TJsfiV&e. NortYi-
west receipts were light. 'Minneapolis ' and
iDuluth reported 231 cars , against 271 last
fc , week ] nnd DOS a year ago. Chicago receipts
wore K ) cars. The addition to contract
Blocks today amounted to about C0.3CO bu.
Seaboard clearances ot wheat and Hour
amounted to 323,000 bu. The latter end of
the session was marked by a good deal of
nervousness , though prices kept within n
comparatively narrow range. The price of
July at one time fell as low as S4-yc. From
there It recovered to 86o nnd fell again to
ffic. It was bringing SGic at fno close.
Trading was for the most part contlncd to
July. Very little was done In Slay or the
more deferred futures.
Corn was strong early In sympathy with
wheat , but after that acted Independently
of the leading grain market. There was a
larirn visible decrease. 8.1S3.C01) bu. , the result
of last week's heavy export business. For-
olgn demand was still heavy. Big nnd
little shorts bought freely and t'no demand
nt times was general and heavy. The mar-
Icet was strong to the close. July ranged
from 32l,4e to 32&c and closed % c higher.
Outs followed corn to some extent , ruling
firm nnd closing higher. Liquidation of long
lines was very Yicavy , but larte clearances
and visible supply decrease caused a good
demand , nnd all offerings were absorbed"
The best prices wore ruling at the close.
July ranged from 235&C to 23M < Q23o and
closed -c higher at 23c.
Provisions were exceptionally dull and
prices during the most of thfi session were
practically at a standstill. Only a narrow
xcalplng trade was done. Packers took very
little interest and outside orders were al
most entirely lacking. At the cjoso July
pork won unchanged at $0.1)0 ) , July lard 2ic
lower at $ o.22'/j ' and July ribs 2&C higher ut
$5.22 % .
Estimated receipts for Tuesday : Wheat ,
115 cars ; corn , 475 cars ; oats , 510 cars ; hogs ,
23,000 head.

STOCKS tAMJ IIOXDS.
Smn.llc t In9ln'en Trnmnne-tcd In the
Illnlory of the KxclimiRe.
NEW YORK. April J8. There wns buying of
stocks by professionals In the first hour this
morning , which raised the prices of most of the
limited number of stocks traded In a point or
over. After midday traders sold again , wiping
out the early advances. The day's change j are
Insignificant and are mixed between gains and
losses. The nmount of buslnepii done was al
most the smallest in the history of the exchange
and a large proportion of the small total was
made up of Tobacco. This stock continued tj
reflect the conlest between Insiders and shorts ,
and the Indications nil went to Plicnv that the
shorts were In distress. After falling off more
than n point the stoclt mounted In an eccentric
way 6 points ard closed a point below the best.
The buying of the morning , which had advanced
general Il > t , wa apparently bated on the pre-
Eump'.lon that the differences at Washington on
the Cuban question added to the chances of a
peaceful solution by delaying war. There were
slight advancus In tlie price of Americans In
London before the opening hour , which helped
In the rice. The selling was due to the action
of the house ot representatives In receding from
Its resolution and concurring In the senate reso
lution after eliminating the recognition of the
Cuban republic , llie feature of the market was
the supply of stocks. This makes an Ideal mar
ket for profctslonal operators , on account of the
ease In the price movements. It Is evident that
the present market Is buttressed with
buylne orders lower down. It Is
selling to realize that produces tha nlmott
unyield'ner steadiness ot the market. A 1-polnt
turn seems to be about the utmost that the
professional room traders are able to accom
plish. The gold rec l\td by Saturday's atcam-
era still further fortlflta the cash reserves of
the bonks ami engagements announced for tc-day
were over Jl,000,001 , beside * Jt.COO.CO ) engaged lateen
on Saturday. The money markc-t. however ,
showed little dbpcsltlon to yield , although call
money wan loaned on the Stock exchange at
2 per cent. Hanks nnd trust companies gentr-
ally hold for 4 per cent for call money and G
per cent for time money. It la rejarded aa
significant that outside banks are beginning to
loan money here. The ejfroctatlcn of a govern
ment loan no Cbubt Influences the banks to
hold their resents and maiked weaknes ) tf
government bonds today Indicated the Issue of
a new bond strits. The market for railroad
bondu was almost absolutely stagnant today and
there wera n > changes at ilgn'flcance In price * .
Total sales , JISO.WO. United States n.3w 4s de
clined 1H per cent , the olj 4 , registered , 1 %
per cent , the ell 4 , co\-pn , 1 per cent nnd
the Si U per cent en the hid price.
The Evening Pest's London financial cable
rram nys : "The tt'ck markets here remained
stagnant today , awaiting political developments ,
and were dull on the absence of a propsect of
a relief of the present tens'on for oma time.
Spanish 4s gave way und clcgey flat at 4m.
Tlw > decline was due to fcrced sales of nearly
fl.OCO.OCO of the stock from Lyons , where a bl ?
house Is tn dlfft iiHlc . There wa a further
fall In Brazils. I learn from an undoubted
source of Important devtlopments In the Hank
of England' * policy to attract gold. Advances
nre being made on th usual necurty. : but cb-
colutely free of Interest. In Ibis connection
100.000 was paid tonight , received from Ger
many. It will be offlclnliy announced tomorrow.
Telfgrams from Huenc * Ayres report that thw
principal farmers and merchant * Intent to offer -
fer their government to take an Informal 6 per
cent loan for JJO.COO.WO at 9 per cent and that
one-third has alrtody been sub crlbed. "

All told there were hardly 100 cars of live
stock In the yards this morning , as against
127 a week ago , so that It was really a
light run for a Monday. The markets as a
whale were devoid of especial Interest ,
though fnere were some variations In
prices , as there was not enough of any one
kind of stock on sale to awaken very much
enthusiasm. All the morning there was a
steady fall of rain , so that everyone who
could remained In doors and the yards Vuil
a decidedly lonesome appearance.
CATTLli-Tho stock yards bulletin
showed sixty loads of cattle of all kinds
In the yards , which was only about seven
cirs short of the supply of a week ngo.
Advices from C'nliuso and other Belling
points Indicated steady markets , while at
the same tlmu there seemed to be a little
better local demand than a week ago. This ,
coupled with the moderate offerings , gave
sellers a little the best of It , nnd they were
enabled to get fully steady prices for most
any kind or cattle , while tidy little beef
steers were , If anything , u little stronger.
At tne same time there were salesmen who
were calling the market lower , but they
were the fortunate ones who happened to
have good selling cattle1 last week , so that
they did not feel the full strength of the
decline , and 'nonce the market today looked
lower than they expected to find It. The
movement today was fairly active , and as
there were not many cattle here sellers
were enabled for the most part to "dispose
of their holdings in good season. Every
thing was soldnnd welched up and the
yards deserted at an early 'nour.
Shippers would do well not to deceive
themselves us to the steer market. It Is no
easy matter to show on paper the full ex
tent of the decline on beef cattle , and this
Is a time when caution will stand shippers
m good hand. The packers do not act very
Hungry for cattle , and It would undoubt
edly be a good thing for the market If the
receipts nt all selling points could be kept
down for a few days until the market had
an opportunity to recover.
Cows and heifers today sold fairly well
at Just about steady prices , the market
showing little or no change so far as values
were concerned. It must be borne In mind ,
nowever , that prices are nt least lOiUSc
lower than the high time last week.
Stockers nnd feeders were very slow sell
ers today. That Is very apt to be the case
on a Monday , but there Is apparently still
another reason for the market being dull
and slow. The country seems tohave be
come afraid of stock cattle at present
pr.lces , and tnere is a noticeable falling oft
In the demand. Values on an average are
STEERS.

HOGS-Thero wore only twcnty-elght londa of
! n.i ya JhU mornltB- ) which was c-ven
smaller than a week ago by seven car .
With nf > few loads
on sale there was very llttli
of Interest In the market. The prices paid v , o
a Binds lower than tlioje .which prevailed on
Saturday. The bis string went at the rti.ie
prlc ns at Uie cloze of last week , that Is S3 ( a
but there were no .loads at M.70 today , and
the proportion of sales above J3.CO was much
pmaller. so that the average of all the sales
was lower.
Hogs sold today at the lowest point of the
rronth to date , nnd the lowest of nny day since
the month of January , excepting only March
2S , when the average price was JJ.57. One year
ngo the nv.uket was 30o higher than It wan Ui-
day. two yearn ago 17V5o lower , three years agi

years ngo J3.3 * higher.
I'artles who have kept themselves vre'l In
formed and nre In a. position to Unow nil that
can be known ln a < lvance predict a continued
low market for hogs , the expectation bclnc thjt
thy will s ll rleht around n.50 for sums Httlo
time to come. The oasis for this prelllnn | Is
apparently the supposition that there nre a
good many hogs In tlia country , and that the
