Cereals and provisions clise higher tarns' Threatea Slower Mtint ad loereased Feedlaa la Coarse Vrelae aad Reflect Btreaath ta All Fits. CinCAOO. Feb. . Cold WMthM nd growing bullish sentiment resulted In bet ter prices In all pita on the Board of Trade today. May wheat closed with a net gain of May corn, 11Mic, and May oats. Sfvttc. Provisions closed 5S7ttc to 10c higher. ... Aside from the early weekly statistics the news of the wheat pit wae bullish. Northwestern and local receipts were amally Northwestern elevator stocks were decreased; there was a fair demand and cablea were silently up to start, though their early advance wae loet. The cold ' weather and storms threatened a slower movement and Increased feeding. The coarse grains, especially corn, were strong and reflected a good deal of their power In wheat. The monthly report from Wash ington gave a poor showing for the condi tion of the winter crop. Shorts became nervous and set to covering, and May, which opened a shade lower to a shitde higher at 78c to lHc, advanced. The visi ble supply was reported decreased 1.444, ( bnshels snd sent May to 78c. Toward the end of the session realising eased the tone slightly. The ruling feeling was free throughout the day, and May closed firm, HVkc up at WaffSHc The absence of any outside Influence In this market led to a nulet trade. Receipts were nineteen cars, two of contract grade; Minneapolis and Duluth reported 870 cars, msklng a total for the three points of 3 cars, against 318 last week and 3.017 for two davs last year. Primary receipts were 467.000 bushels, against 1,136,000 bushels for the two days a year ago. World's ship ments are 8.284,000 busnels. compared with 7.3K3.0TK) bushels last week and 7,312,000 bushels a year ago. The on-passsge state ment showed an Increase of 2,652,000 bush- . Seahjoard clearances In wheat and 1 mr equalled 630.mo bushels. The sea 1 onrd reported lethargy In exports. Re- nrts that the cold weather would con tinue for some time Infused considerable strength Into corn and set bears a guess ing as to the -wisdom of their attitude toward the market. Cables were firm and receipts were very small. An early In vestment demand began to spring up and shorts lost heart and covered freely. There waa little com for sale early, and May, after' opening Wna higher, sold tip ltc to -64M.C The visible supply bulle tin read "unchanged" In corn, the first time In the history of the board in such a connection. Cash business was restricted bv light offerings. Southwestern marketa were bulllnh. Altogether corn showed a strong feeling. Late In the day the ad vanced prices brought some realising and a consequent easier feeling. May closed strong, Kj'I'iC up, at 63"t3Mc Receipts were only 62 cars. Traders in oats kept near shore. They feel that when something does happen again In oats it will be decided and they ere., not anxious to be caught again as they were caught last week. Consequently the oats market waa small, though It fol lowed corn and showed aome strength. "May opened well up, but fluctuations were of a narrow range. The close for May was Arm, KfMrC higher at 44fcc He ceplts were only 54 cars. A, better cash trade than has existed In f revisions for some time, together with he grain strength, helped prices well. The opening was lower on increases In stock, but pork had a good demand and advanced other products. May pork closed 10c tip at I15 87W; May lard. 674c higher at 18.46, and May ribs 6P7tto up at $8.46. Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat, 80 cars; corn, 70 cars; oats, 96 cars; hogs, 84.000 head.

The professional element among the stock operators showed a rather hopeful spirit this morning and started with some confidence to buy the transcontinental railroad stocks. The move ment seemed to be based upon an assump tion that the supreme court would hand down Its decision today In the Northern Securities company esse, for within halt an hour after the time for the sitting of the court the morning's gstns In tnee stocks had been wiped out. The dealings In southern Pacific were especially large and gave evidence of operations by a spec ulative pool. The buying of the stock is ostensibly based upon the expectation of an early refunding of large Issues of bonds bearing a high rate f Interest and which mature In the next few years. The finan cial district was flooded with optimistic estimates of the current earnings of the road. The price was carried at one time 1 over Saturday, but It fared little better tnan the other Pacifies In the reactionary movement and closed with a net gain of . There were heavy dealings also In St. Paul and Union Pacific but these gains were entirely wiped out. Efforts were made to revive the market by Inaugurating a movement In the coalers. Lackawanna spurted 14, little stock coming out. Ru mors were revived that the company's stock was to be doubled,- with valuable rights to present holders. Dealings In Amalgamated Copper were on an enormous scale, tne number of shares sold being about the largest for a single day In the history of the stock. It waa under pres sure throughout,, with occasional rallies, and In the day fell more than 3 points under Saturday, closing with a net loss of 2. Profit taking waa an Important ele ment In the weakness of the stock, but there was a disposition to discredit recent rumors of a combination with other cop per producers. The weakness of this stock did not affect the early rise In the trans- continentals, Dut its depressing influence gained force later In the day. The favor able statement of net earnings Tor Decem ber was responsible for the strength In the Minneapolis, St. Paul ft Sault Ste. Marie, stocks, the common rising 2 and the preferred 8. with final reactions of sbout a point. The weakness in Metropol itan was attributed to reports of an early retirement' from business of one of the company's large capitalists. The large In crease In loans by the bank last week was the subject of much discussion, without throwing much light upon uses for which the borrowed money was designed. The fact that nearly $10,000,000 of the Increase, or nearly half the Increase, was made by two of the leading banks In the clearing house which are affiliated with the finan cial power which originated most of the great combinations last year, encouraged the supposition that large syndicate oper ations and possibly new projects are In hand. The sudden and unexpected declar ation and disbursement of a 1 per dent dividend on Northern Securities stock might account for part of the loan, al though the public Is Ignorant what per cent of this stock has been exchanged for constituent companies. Subscriptions to a number of new railroad bond Issues might also be responsible. The money market continued easy, notwithstanding the expectation that the outward move ment of gold Is to be renewed. In fact, the ease of the money market la the per missive ractor in tne export or goin. Railroad bonds were moderately active and Irregular. Total sales were $4,425,000. United States bonds were all unchanged at tne last can. The Commercial Advertiser's London financial cablegram says: As far as busi ness was concerned. American stocks might have been shut out of the exchange. Half the dealers did not even bargain, but after the close of business New York bid prices up sharply In the street, partic ularly Southern Pacific, Erie and Atchison, as is supposed in anticipation of a favor able decision in the Northern Securities com Dan y suit. Copper statistics show In creases of stock of 1,624 tons and in sup- glles of 17,200 tons. Rio Tintos were firm, ut reacted sharply to 46 on the absence of Parts support due to the storm.

Buyers did not seem to care whether they got many cattle or not and their bids In most cases were consid erably lower than last week. SeHers were asking steady prices, so that the morning was well advanced before many cattle went over the scales. ' There waa about the usual sprinkling of beef steers in the receipts this morning, but buyers were slow about starting out and their bids were so much lower than the prices paid last week that sellers would not out loose. In some eases sellers got what they considered close to steady prices and sold out, but as a general thing sales men were not satisfied with the prices offered and It was late before buyers and sellers got together on terms. The situa tion could probably- best be described by calling It a slow and weak market. The quality of the cattle as a whole was noth ing extra, which perhaps had something to do with the Indifference of buyers. The cow market waa also devoid of ac tivity, but still the prices were not so much different from last week when It came to the better grades, such as sell from 84.00 up. Those kinds sold without much difficulty - at right around steady prices, but medium grades and ca liners changed hands slowly and in most cases sold a little lower than they did last week. Cow buyers acted much the same as the steer buyers, in that they did not seem to be anxious for supplies. There waa not very much change In the prices paid for bulls,- especially for the better grades, but they did not sell any too readily. Veal calves sold at right around steady prices, where the quality waa satisfactory. Stags were slow sale and weak. . Desirable grades Of Blockers and feeders showing flesh aa well as quality brought Just about steady prices. Common kinds of all weights, however, were neglected and were hard to move at any price. Thin stockers In particular were neglected and prices were. If anything, lower.

Buyers were all out early and It was not long be fore practically all the desirable grades were out of first hands. The quality was good on the average, but still there was nothing fancy, ana for that reason the prices do not look as high on paper as they would If there had been more prime stuff on sale. The common grades of both sheep and lambs were a tittle neglected, but still they sold at right around steady prices.
