CHICAGO. Feb. 19. Orslns inward along In a dull rut today. Ilearlshneaa wan the uppermost characteristic, but no narrow Waa the range that May wheat closed only Ho lower, May corn a shade down and May oata Vic lower, Provisions closed fytf UUo depressed. Early trade In wheat waa small and ner vous, with tendency toward lower prices. Cables were lower. Flour newa waa weak and the weather for winter wheat was food. This induced aome ahort selling and sent prices down a trifle. Northwestern receipts were liberal and predictions from that section of the country Indicated a bet ter spring movement. The seaboard was bidding, but at prlcea lo lower. Dull news waa also a bearish factor. May opened Ho to K8"0 lower at 7SHru78o and fiddled around for over an hour with hardly a change. Weakness In coarse grains helped to depress wheat and May eventually touched Tla. There had been some selling for longs by the southwest and commission houses had sold aome for the out-lde ac count. For a time It looked as if the mar ket could be manipulated easily, but when New York worked a fair business on the break the crowd that had gone short early came In and bought. Most of the loss waa regained and May closed steady, He down at 7(4 o. There waa a sprinkling of bullish ness throughout the session, which, how aver, had little strengthening effect, when the reports had It that much of the winter wheat country hlch was supposed to be under snow was unprotected. Ban Fran- dsco also reported a fair continental de mand and prices went up He. tiocal re ceipts were 22 cars, none of contract grade. Minneapolis and Duluth reported 2M cars, making a total for the three polnta of 276, gainst 2M laat year. This day last week Was a holiday. Primary receipts were 437, ooo bushels, compared to 436,000 last year. Beaboard clearances In wheat and flour equaled 440,000 bu-hels. The seaboard re ported 12 loads taken for export. A bearish sentiment carried over from yesterday depressed corn at the openlna. Commission houses sold some of the south west. There was no Improvement In the cash situation and a general bearish ten dency prevailed. Prices hung somewhat under laat night's close. One large profes sional bought in to some extent and buoyed the market for a time, but when he threw over hla purchases the crowd went short and May broke to 80c. The general situa tion waa almost unchanged. Clearances were very small and the movement was light, colder weatner was preaiciea in me feeding country and the freer movement expected west showed no signs of beginning at once. There were several little spurts of activity in corn and near the close the sr!" short sellers took profits. This brought a steady condition and May closed only a shad. under at 614C. Receipts were 84 cars. Oats had little life snd followed corn closely.. Prices fluctuated over a range of only He though there was a slight decline from yesterday. The steady tone at the close waa felt on the revival In corn. The close waa Ho down at 4Hc. Receipts were 70 cars. Provisions were quiet, but were depressed by general celling, following the early grain weakness. Hog receipts at the yards were light and brought better prices, but the sentiment was more bearish than for weeks. May pork closed j2tyc down at I1R.T7H. May lard R(g7Hc lower at 19.40 4.42H and May ribs Be lower at 18.45. Estimated recelpte for tomorrow: Wheat, SS cars; corn, 75 cars; oata, 80 cars; hogs, , 40.000 head. - The leading futures ranged as follows: Articles. Open. H!gh. Low. Close. Yes'y.

The principal ac tivity In today's stock market wa concen trated In the final hour, when Union Pa cific and St. Paul, after lying quiescent all day, were suddenly pressed up about a point over last night. At the same time there was an urgent demand developed for Tennessee Coal, the reuaon for which was ot explained, but which carried the price 3 over last nlRht. These actions, coming n top ot desultory advances in siocks not sualiy active, caused a hardening tendency II around and disposed the shorts to cover. The earlier strong points meantime suf fered from realizing, so tnai me closing was Irregular, but active. The speculative activity was confined to the high-priced Industrials and the stocks of small railroad systems up to that time. The movement in Bugar and Amalga mated Copper waa very erratic and after ravermng a wide range, mey ciosea tne lay with net eains of only a fraction. The dealings In the United States Steel stocks were very large, and buying by brokers usually used by syndicate Interests was on a large scale, but the speculative public refrained from following the initiative, which waa supposed to be based upon the tentative proposition to convert the pre ferred stock into a per cent bona, i ne Chicago, Indianapolis & Louisville stocks nd the Evansvllle ft Terre Haute atocas made sensational advances on the belief that they are to be Included In a coming consolidation. The United Btatea Rubber stocks were moved upward on the basia of the wet weatner, wnicn increased tne de mand for the company's goods. There were wild movements In other minor stocks, some showing new strength and others dropping back. The general market was Inclined to be reactionary during tne morn ing, the Readings, especially, showing the ffect of oroftt-takina-. The Question of gold exports tomorrow was open all day nd tne decision to send goia was an in uence In the late rally. Rates for money re unchanged, but the undertone Is firm. The flow of funds from the Interior to this center has become small. The fact' Is evident that syndicates and large capital ists are following up the resources or tne monev market as closely as possible by taking up the greater part of the available credits, and the professional speculntor with borrowed money on margin knows from hard experience that his convenience Is the last to be consulted while other re quirements are to be met In the money market. With the uncertainties of the Northern Securities case and the coming dubious period regarding the next wheat crop, speculators are disposed to go cau tiously. There Is a continued good demand 'for bonds of various grades, but the movement of prices continues Irregular, owing to oc casional profit-taking. The general tend ency, however, waa firm. Total sales, par value. X3.i6.u. United States refunding 2a advanced per cent on the last can. The Commercial Advertiser's London financial cablegram says: The stock mar ket continued weak early today on re newed liquidation of Kaffirs, but the selling ceased around noon. Paris came a buyer, and the close was cheerful. The Consoli dated African Copper trust was Introduced today witnout a prospectus. i ne cpui la to be 600.000. Instead of 2.667.000. as was rumored on Monday. The market rilailirpri the romnnnv. which it describes as a Barnato bang, requiring onna con fidence on the part oc tne puonc. isew York bought united mates oteei, out neg lected railroad shares.

Packers, however, all aeemed to be anxloua for auppllea, ana aa a result the market 'waa active and steady to strong, particularly on the more desirable grades. There waa a liberal sprinkling of beef steers In the yards this morning, but the quality waa nothing to brag of. Buyers, though, took hold In good shape and trade waa active at strong prices. Aa is gen erally the case on that kind of a market a nAl minv alea were made that looked 6 or even 10c higher than the same kind of cattle sold ior yesteruay. in ymw ui mo good demand, practically everything waa aold in good seaaon. There waa also a liberal demand for cows and heifera. The better gradea In par ticular moved freely and the kinds that aell from 84.00 up were undoubtedly 610c higher In a good many caaea. The can nere and medium gradea also moved more freely tnan mey nave ox wun uui i;i but there was not much change In the prlcea paid. There was a better tone to the trade, however, and sellers had very littlo trouble in disposing of . what they had to offer. , , Bulls, veal calves and stags sold In just about yeaterday'a notchea, but It waa noticeable that there waa a good demand for the better gradea. There were only a few atockera and feeders In the yards today, ao that every thing showing weight and quality was picked up In a hurry at stronger prlcea. There waa not much change in the prices nald for the common cattle, but It was evident that they aold with less difficulty than of laie. iwornui"o ..ca.

It waa evident, however, that the BUPDlV Was larva ,nnnth in meat I ha demand. The market started out in aood shape, with prices Just about 6c higher hRn yesterday. Trading was active and the bulk of the offerings was disposed of In good season. Heavy hogs sold largely from 3.90 to 36.10 and from that up to $6.20. The Ilieaium Welo-hta want rmm I. ?fc 85.8o and the lighter loads went from 35.75 down. Along toward the last end of the market, however, packers seemed to have their orders pretty well filled and all of a sudden stopped buvlna- at their former bids. They did not want the rest of the hogs unless they could get them at yester S?f",? P"0''" nd In some canes they were bidding even a shade lower than yester day; It was mostly the light loads, how fKel. ..at w.er ,eft- as buyers picked out the better hogs early In the morning. Owing to the drop in prices It was rather late before anything like a clearance waa made. Representative salea: No. 25.... 13.... 11.... 16.... 93.... 83... 111.. 81.. Av. Sh.
