CHTCAOO. Feb. lSj-FoIlowIn a colorless fTenlng wheat tixlny beranw fairly Arm on feports of a continental demand and ai med depletion of country stocks. Tha (rain lint profited iiympathetically. May Rhint closed H''Hc higher, May corn and May oat o higher each. Provisions cloaed steady, 6c under Tuesday. ' Wheat opennd a to H&4c blither at nia to 7fciW7xc, on tha encouragement Clven by a further alight advance at Liver pool. The depressing effect of alack spec ulation was shown early by a decline to 'H'WiHo, At thta point the market steadied and tha buying movement began to aa aume proportions to which it has been a atranger tor some time. Thli waa due to the cloning strength at Liverpool and re ports of a demand for cargoee by con tinental houses. Tha seaboard advices claimed a good British export demand, thus strengthening the cable Information. This demand only concerned winter stocks and generally was to the effect that stocks were at a very low ebb. Country buying seemed to support this contention. May gradually worked up to Wit"Vka during the afternoon and closed V'Sc higher at 7&'3'7&'4C. New Tor reported 16 loads taken for export, but the bulls claimed that the reports were not complete. Sea board clearances were .196,ftno bushels. Pri mary receipts were 670, bushels for two days, compared with 449.000 a year ago. Local receipts were 16 cars,, none of con tract grade. Minneapolis and Duluth re ported 639 cars for twa days, making a total for the three points of 6M cars, against 218, one day, last week and 362 last . ear. ; Corn was fairly active and firm for the most part. The market was depressed for a time early on selling led by St. Louis. At the bottom many buying orders came to Hunt and Kansas City bought more than St. Louis had sold earlier. There was a good Inquiry from the east, but difficulty waa experienced In getting offers of new No. 8 corn, which was the grade In re quest. One house claimed to nave sold 10 loads to New Kngland points, the first business with that section In three months. Hecelpts were 27 cars. May sold between tl-VoTilSc and Rifte and closed Vo higher at The oats market seemed a reflex of corn. Prices were lower early In sympathy with the coarser cereal and reacted later, local bouses doing most of the buying. The cash trade waa reported dull. Receipts were 6a cars. May sold between 427lc and 43o and closed V4c up at 434c. Provisions were quiet. Prices opened lower on hog receipts, but held steady within a narrow range on country buying. The close wes 6c down. May pork at 115.40; May lard at 89.47H. and May ribs at 88.52H. Estimated receipts tomorrow: Wheat, 30 cars; corn, 106 cars; oats, 140 cars; hogs, 15.000 head.

Disposition to Realise Profits Increase and Many Advances Oeenr. NEW YORK, Feb. 13,-Todavs stock market was similar In charseter to that of Tuesday, but showed an Increased dis position to realise profits where consid erable advances had occurred. The local traction stocks were tinder decided pres sure. Amalgamated Copper sagged away under constant offerings without much evi dence of support, closing with a net lose of 24. Reports of renewed rate-cutting among the far western railroads may have emphasised the desire to sell their stocks. The reports received of gross earnings for the first week In Februiry also showed a rather prevalent tendency to decreases compared with last year. This was notably true of the southwestern rail roads, but there was marked strength In that group, led by the Express and Pa cifies, and with a rise of 24 on Intima tion of very large earnings. There were unusually large' dealings In the Colorado at, Southern stocks, which were supposed to be due to expectation of Increased divi dend disbursements, but the common rose an extreme 2 over Tuesday's level Inte in the day, after the announcement had been made of the declaration of only' the regular 14 per cent semi-annual dividend on the first preferred stock. The market closed allglitly Irregular, but generally easy. There was large business In bonds, but the movement of prices was Irregular. Total sales; par value,' $5,810,000. United States bonds were all unchanged on the last call. The following are tne closing prices on the New York Stock exchange: Atchison , do pfd Baltimore A O.. do pfd Canadian Pac... Canada So Ches.

The market waa more active today, however, than it was yesterday and there were no very radical changes In prices. . There were not so very many beef steers on sale today, the bulk of the receipts consisting of butcher stock. Buyers were out fairly early and made the rounds, bid ding Just about steady prices. In some cases sellers thought bids were a little stronger than yesterday on the better f rades. As a result the cattle began mov ng toward the scales In good season and the bulk of the offerings was soon dis posed of. Tha commoner kinds, however, were rather neglected and sellers found It rather hard to move that clasa of stuff at steady prices. The better grades of cows and heifers were In food demand this morning, but the market could not be quoted any more than ateady. Packers seemed to want what was on sale, but they did not want to pay any more than they nave for the last several days. There have been a good many of the medium grades and cannera on sale all the week, so that packera are not particularly anxious for supplies of that kind. They were rather indifferent buyers today, and If anything the market was a shade lower than it was yesterday. Sellers found it rather a "hard, matter to dispose of those kinds, and it waa late before thepena were cleared. Bulls were in good demand this morn ing where tha quality was satisfactory, but the common kinds were neglected. The same was true of veal calves and stags. There were quite a few atockera and feeders on sale today, but the demand was sufficient to take what was offered at steady prices, where the cattle showed weight and quality. In some places cattle answering to that description sold a little stronger. There was no Improvement In tne aemana or tire prices paia tor tne commoner grades, and particularly for those of light weight Representative sales: BEEF STEERs. At. Pr. No. Ay. Pr.

The best heavyweight hogs In most cases were not over 6c lower, but all others were fully a dime lower and very slow sale at the decline. In fact packers, would not look at anything but the better weight hogs on the opening market, and as a result the market was very slow. The better weights sold largely from $6 10 to $6.26, and as high as $K.3o was paid for prime hogs. The medium weights sold mostly from $5.90 to $6.10. and the' lighter loads went from 85.90 down. The oualttv of the hogs and also the weights were fairly good today, so that the market on paper; does not show the full amount of the decline. Representative sales: No. Av. 19 105 710 8 no 3 00 Sh.

The nrtces paid were not materially differ it from yesterday, and the market could best be described by calling it active and steady on all desirable grades. The quality of the offerings today was fairly good on the average, so that sellers had no trouble n disposing of what they had on hand. There were not enough feeders on sale this morning to test the market, but as there was a liberal Inquiry for good atuff It Is safe to call the market fully steady.
