CItlCAOO, April 19.-AIthough t here m
nn excellent cash business today the . r Id.
sunny spring weather and lower cables
combined with n. liquidation, proved e
ruling factors In the wheat pit nnd the
close was barely steady. "tfiSc under yes
terday. Corn closed Hfic down ami oats
4c depressed. Provisions closed llrm. 2,i
lower In lard to 6c higher In l'"rU-
While the mild spring weather and o
Kind sunlight elevated the spirits of o
speculator and perhaps turned the ou ng
man's fancy to thoughts of love, the effect
on the wheat market was different. W enk
rabies also had something to do w th the
depression and besides there was 1 Uiuldu
tlon which probably wo uh h ai ti ikon
place whatever the ond I ons. llhllp lie
inoculative trade was light, tho cash ""
iP1 was , excellent. SW.UW h'l.. -ome of It
No. 1 northern and somo of It N . eM
Tbls liuslness served to briiiK about ri
hulKo foTowl.ig tho opening, but It . d not
hold and the closo was barely steady, uj
U?i rash sales 85.000 bu. were for direct
"xlort New York reported thirty loud
for export. Foreigners were sellers of July
carl?- Atlantic port clearances In wheat
nrtliour wcro cc,..al to 276.000 bu. VY
receipts were 353.000 bu., compared with
261.000 bu. Inst year. Minneapolis and nu
ll th reported 357 cars ugu nst S
and 209 a year ago. Local reeedp s were 87
ears, two of contract grade. M ay opene 1
.4c down at tJ5U,fin3V. sold between
yesterday at (1514c, July began tho session
tIV4c to c down at MytWf ,ln. V?.
ranged between 67.e and 66KC closing
c under at 60-V'(66Tc. ,. . .,
The corn market was generally quiet,
but there wero spurts of activity. As in
wheat, the main consideration was tno
excellent spring climatic oondlt ons Willi
lower cables a contributing factor In thn
weakness which was evident the greater
part of the session. The se ling was e.l
by those who boucht yesterday and will
them the. failure of Liverpool to respond
to tho advance here yesterday was a potent
consideration. Tho decline, following a loss
over night of C was checked by fteo
profit-taking by shorts, but tho check was
only momentary and tho closo was weak.
Thcro wiui a capital cash business. He.
celpts hero were 258 cars. May ranged
from 3874c to 38c and closed ifc1ic tuidcr
yesterday at 3814c; July from 39c to 39-VJ,
closing W3?ic depressed at 39'4c
In spite of speculative dullness and a
hog market Inclined to weakness, the pro
vision market was tlrm. Huylng by puek
crs against liberal cash sales anil the light
offerings were the factors. May pork sold
between 112.05 anil $13.10 and closed 5e over
vesterdav at $13.on; July between $I3.12'4
and $13.25, closlnK Re up "t $13.15; May lard
between 17.30 and $7.22&. closing "'Ac down
at $7.22V4; July between $7.37'.4 and $7.32'3,
with tho close 2',3o depressed at $7.3214.
May ribs ranged from $7.15 tn $7 20 and
closed unchanged nt $7.15fi7.17Va; July
figures and fluctuations wcro exactly slml
lnr to those In May.
Trade In oats was not Important, but the
market nevertheless exhibited considerable
steadiness In comparison with wheat nnd
corn. Tho weather Is perfection for tho
growing area, but the, country pressure to
sell was much less than of late. Receipts
hero were 113 cars. May ranged from 2.T,fj)
2.1'io to 23'ic anil closed c down at 23',4c;
July from 23:!c to Sic, closing ,ic lower at
23!ic.

IltistliCKK of i;ieliniie l.nir Into u
Condition of Diilliienn.
NEW YORK, April 19.-Huslnes on the
Stock exchange today lapsed Into a con
dition of dullness and abandonment to
the operations of small professional
traders. Much angry recrimination con
tinues to be heard on nil sides concerning
the bear raid on the Iron and steel stocks.
Not only In the stock mnrkot, but In the
Iron trade ns well, accusations of bad faith
and doublcdeallng are bandied about. All
other authorities In fhe trade disagree with
tho views of Chairman Oates of the Amer
ican Steel and Wire company, but the Iron
Age says In Its review of the subject "no
sharp tumble In values Is exported unless
this development In the wire trade should
produce such an effect."
It Is the reservation thus expressed that
has so effectually upset the speculative
world. Dealers in securities kept one eye
on the Iron and steel stocks all day and the
errntlo and Irregular movements In that
group kept the. whole market In a feverish
and uncertain state. When pressure there
was relaxed thero was a disposition man
ifest to mark up pi Ices elsewhere, but the
burden of selling met on the advance gnvo
an appearance of n desire to realize on an
extensive scale and took the snap out of tho
market.
On the other hand the majority of stocks
offered decreased materially on a consid
erable decline, giving an undertone of
firmness to prices. Notolile strength was
shown at one time by tho Haltlmore &
Ohio storks nnd on tho other hand South
ern Pacific suffered from decided weakness.
The ono movement had about as much
effect on the general list as the other. Tho
sharp pdvancc In tho me4al stocks which
followed the declines after the opening was
accompanied by a rise late In tho day to
tho best prices. Hut when these works
nnd Sugar gavo wny tho whole list fol
lowed and the closing was active and easy
considerably below the best. Sugnr after
selling up ns high as 1031,, closed at n net
loss of 2 nolnts. The ncu-s nf the ilnv tvhb
generally Ignored. It Included n number of
sirong siniemenis or earnings ror tno sec
ond week In April, especially by soft co.il
carrying roads. Rumors of new combina
tions of railroad systems continue preva
lent. The Chlcngo. Indianapolis & Ixiuls
vlilei Is now said t0 bo destined for nb-
Sorntlon llV the Southern rnllivnv nn.l
there nro stories of Vonderbllt buying of
nuns!! securities. i no southwestern
kiuuf oi su'caneu uouia railroads are
formed Into various combinations bv tho
rumor mongers. The small amount of for

Htlll neglected. Prices nominal. Cotton
linings dull, but generally tn light sunnlv
nnd steady. Jobbing trade here quiet, but
local trade doing a good business.

CATTLE Receipts of cattle were very
largo for a Thursday, In fact there was a
good run for any dny of the week for this
market. The most of tho cattle here were
cornfed steers and there was very little
elso In the yards. There were over 110
cars of fat cattle on sale, not counting the
ten cars shipped direct from Knnsas City
to a local packer. Tho general market
on steers was steady to 610c lower, with
bcavv and coarse cattlo the worst suf
ferers. Handy little cattle experienced very
little decline and as a rule sold at about
steady prices, The market was a little slow
to open, as Is apt to be the case when buy
ers are bidding lower, but when It once
warmed up the trade was fairly active, so
that all the cattle here changed hands In
good season.
Cows and heifers were In very moderate
supply, only about llfteen to twenty loads
nf that kind of cattle being reported on
snle. As the demand was of fair proportions
the market on that kind wns active and
fully steady. Practically everything desir
able In tho way of cow stuff was disposed
of early and the prices paid wero very sat
isfactory to the sellers, nulls were slow
and tho market without feature.
Onlv n few stockers and feeders were to
bo found on sale this morning and the
market was not much changed from what
It was yesterday. Speculators were not as
anxious for tho cattle as on other days for
the reason that fat cattlo were lower and
that the week Is nearlng an end. Still there
wns :l fair demnnd nnd the offerings met
with qulto rendy sale. Representative sales:

llnnHIlIu- rnrelnta at this nolnt and un-
fjvnrahln rennrts. from other selling points
caused the market hero to decline 2!i6c.
At the. opening the trade was rainer siow,
as tho first bids were generally $5.45 for
good toads, which sellers were slow to ac
cept. A little later buyers began lddding
$5.4.sj6.i7'4 ana sellers were lorcen to rm
loose. At that range the most of tho de
sirable mixed loads chanted hands, tho
bulk being sold and weighed up m goon
senson. After about 100 cars had changed
hands tho market seemed to slow up and
tho close was slow. Tho same hogs that
sold at $5.45fl6.47'4 today brought iS.i'WiP
6.50 yesterday.
Today s decline wipes out 1110 mini 01
the, gain mado by the market on Tuesday,
so that the hogs sold today but lltle bet
ter than they did on Monday. The market
Is still IW6I60 higher han a week ago.
