Vtreaa-th at Liverpool aad Reports ot
Dcatii for Cargoes by Coatl

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.

MOVEMENTS OF STOCKS AND BONDS.
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

The Commercial Advertiser's London
financial cablegram says: Today's was a
settlement record for years, so much so
that some was left unfinished. Kaffirs
were fair, and finally flat, except for Char
tered on rumors that Cecil Rhodes was- on
his way for England with his pockets
full of schemes. - The -general market waa
good, particularly home rails, on a state
ment that a revolution is In opecatlon, on
the Invention of a new bevelled gear ex-
rted - to Increase the propelling power.
Is expected 10,000,000 will be saved a
year on the various lines. The advance
In consols waa checked on the statement
that the Boer war may necessitate In
creased borrowings. Copper sold at 544
per ton. Americans were strong, closing
near the top on New York buying, which
was largely, confined early to Southern
Pacific, but finally turned to Denver A
Rio Grande and Missouri, Kansas ft Texas.
Gold to the amount of 20,000 has gone
oht to Malta. The Bank of England loaned
the market 4,000. The Indian banks have
raised the discount rate from 7 to 8 per
cent.

CATTLE Cattle receipts continued heavy
today, which makes the supply for the
four days this week considerably heavier
than for the same days of last week, as
will be seen "from the table of receipts
given above. 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:

HOGS The heavv recelnta of hogs con-
tinned today, so thai the supply lor the
first four data of this week is far ahead
of the supply for the same days of last
weea. i'arkers, of course, tried to pouna
the market, and they succeeded to oirlte
sn extent. 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:

SHEKP There were about as many sheep
and lambs on sale today. as arrived yes
terday, and the demand continued active,
and as, a result the offerings changed
hands about its fast aa they came In.
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.
