C. An Increnno In the visible supply , together with enormous re- | rulpta In the northwisl today , caused wheat to turn weak and an early gain was nearly nil lost. September closed ' 41' lower and December rose l-S'il'iC. Uecember corn left t off 3-Sc higher. May oats nro unchanged to 1-te up. Pork declined 12'ac. lard , 22Vic and rlbg ii4f. ! \Vheut held very Htcady dm Ing tno Ilrst hour , although the conditions were regarded - j garded as bearish. Some of the early truriBuctlona were 3c or moro above the Hone Haturdny , September Helling at C2 fi-Se i und December at Clf/fil / 1-Bc split. The strength In corn was nn Inlluence to wheat and besides thesu there was a good deal of prollt taking by shorts , offerings were small with the competition sharp and prices held firm for a time. The enormous receipts In the northwest were regarded ns din- couniRlng , being S.liia arloads since the last reports , an against 1 , : ! 0 for the same tlmo luit year. Chicago received 112 cars of wheat , ugaltiHt lw > S for the cot responding period of WJ'i , and that was the only fea ture of this season s receipts compared with those of the year before that was of u bulllflh character. The Htrength with which the market opened was fairly well maintained until the visible supply statement \viis cumplet-d , whlih showed l,22i > , wo bu.

That liu reuse was somcvhat heavier limn exported and prices drrpped on Its re. elpt to y below the highest point pre- vlously nindu for December rind -c beliuv the top for September. September opened unchanged ut K !

Low temperatures and reports of killing frosts In bomo districts strengthened corn oarly. The fear that the government re port due this week might not show any deterioration since August C , however , ncted us a partial counterweight to the general bullish surroundings of the corn pit. December began 3-VUViC higher at JO.VO .10 7-Sc , rose to .lie , weakened to SO-Uc and . losed at 30030 7-Sc. Oats followed corn , but did not display as inur-h strength aa did the latter. The % cry heavy receipts and the lurgo Increase m the visible supply helped to keep prices down. May started l-SSttc. up at 22" < < 2. ! 1-kc , nold oft to 21 7-fcc and closed at 21 7it22c. ! . The feeling In provisions was very unset tled over the yellow fever situation. PackIng - Ing house Interests sold freely and the market ruled heavy throughout the session with the lowest point of a considerable de- line current nt the close.

Today's stock market was variable and Irregular at all times , but was more or less under the con tinuing Influence of the shrinking surplus reserves of the bank and the stlffer rates for money. General speculation was almos-t at a standstill and tlu- movement of the market was confined largi ly to special stocks , the trading being highly profes sional throughout. The opening was higher Ic In I sympathy with London. It iiil | > kly be came evident , however , that no outside In terest had been enlisted hero and the pro fessional bears attacked the list In weak spots , notably Manhattan , People's Gas und Tobacco , and soon wiped out the earlier gains. A number of Individual slocks showed conspicuous strength nil day ami a rally In People's ( las drove the bears to t cover and made them inure cautious. Thn strength beeani" general In the late dealings I under the leadership of the St. Paul 1 and thn close was strong at the best 1I prices 1I I of the day and generally ut a level above Friday's close. The fear of Inter rupted tralllc through > ellow lever quurun- | tine was u factor In the early wculcntss , especially In Southern Hallway preferred , ' but 1 at the name time there was nn ndvunc * of 1I 1i 23-S in Illinois Central and conspicuous llrmness I In LouHvlllo on 'lie prospect of resumption of Havana traffic , llaltlmore &t Ohio ! was heavily bought by banking In- leresls t all day and showed an e.\tremk gain of o points. Othei strung feiituros were Denver preferred , Atc-hlson preferred. Reiuliiu j ; 1st prefi rred , Denver A : Gulf , the { Paeltlc coast improvement stocks anil the Grangers ! In sympathy with St. Paul on I the- very advantageous showing In the- hit ter's } annual reimrt. The dotrtMHiit factor In the rltimtlfin continues to be the absorp J tion of money by the United States treas ury on account of mibserlptlons to the new bonds. Call money luiitmued ttulto firm , with : i per cent the ruling rate and w.th no apparent effect from the tteaaury an 'J nouncement that the cum my Gs. due January , 1 next , would be rede tiled at once. U Is somewhat temarkable that with \ money holding tlrm at a level markedly higher J ' than the ruling rate in London and with exchange falling under the presume of ; ; raln and cotton bills there should yet 1m an easing of money rates In London. The- phenomenon Is the more remarkable us there was continued buying of stocks in l New York for Ixmdon account. The condition of the moijoy market had Its | reflection also in the extreme dullness of ( the trading In liond ? . but prices w re In | the main III inly held. Total salea J'liU.- ( VJ. United States old Is registered and the i EH advanced ' , end the new Is .and the ; Js wh"li Issued 1-S per i ent In the bid place. The Evening Post's London financial cablegram ( says : ' 1 he r-tock markets hero were generally good todny on the clear political i horizon , such decline * us have taken i place In Argentines and a tew other stocks being merely clue to profit-taking. Grand i Trunk was Hut. Americans opened ubove the parity , but. except for Central Paclllc , the market wart unmterestlns until the elofie , when a sharp rise In IJiiltlmoro & Ohio was the feature. General outlook for Americans Is good unl ss present at tention should be. seriously diverted to mines. The ix > sltlon at Ibu moment Is that the Cupe Is buying Katllrn eagel y and Adelaide Is buying wheat and Australian mines. Uoth markets are bare ol1 shares and efforts uro evidently being made to engineer a smull boom.N work Isuuy- In * gold in Paris , as also here , although much mybtury Is observed here as to the actual buyers The price Is about "s 10 C-Sd. The India government Is renewing i. . < 0.- ouu In treasury bills and this may help to steudy the money rules litre. A large amount Is to bo repaid by the rnurkot to the Hank of England tomorrow.

A tun nel Is being run on the vein which at prcB- ent shows four fret of ore that carries gold principally. The property gives every Indication of becoming a mine with the necessarw development which It , will doubt less receive In the course of the next year or two. The Wheel of Fortune Is owned by a company of Denver men. UurlnE the summer for about flvo years past a crosscut tunnel has been In progress , having for Its objective point tlio main lead of the property , which Is several feet wldo on the surface and carries good gold values. This tunnel Is enld to bu closely approachlne the objective point. In its course one cross lead of good dimensions , carrying medium pold and sliver values , was Intersected. If the vein which will shortly bo cut comes up to expectations nt that depth , it la un- dcrstood the owners , men of wealth , will equip tbo property with a mill and tram way.

The most of the cattle hero were grass westerns , with about a dozen or llfteen loads of cornfeds. Thi110 were a few pretty decent cattle among the latter , which sold at J5.105i5.lC , but the most of the westerns were none too good. Buyers. In fact , were claiming that the westerns averaged up the poorest thut they have In a number of days and that that was In large part the cause of the slowness of the market. Another reason why buyers were not overly aiiNlous for the rattle was the fact that there was n Kood Tuesday's run at all leading markets , giving the Impression that the week's re ceipts am liable to be large. Cow stutt was slow anil lower In sympathy with the decline on medium Brades of steers , and It was late before the market opened and close to midday before anything llko u clearance was effected. The country demand for feeders continues Rood , but the most of the cattle leaving the yards are going Into Iowa and Missouri , while Nebraska Is buying very sparingly. Huycrs most all want good to choice cattle ! of good weights , which are scarce and con sequently prices on that kind are held very I lirm while on others the market is weaic.
