May wheat closed with a net loss of He. May corn H8Ho and May oata e74c. Provisions clewed a bade to 16o lower. Wheat ruled weaker and somewhat dull all dar Moat of the news was bearish such a oabies, weather and the gov ernment crop oondftlon report. There waa little demand for wheat from the outside and outside markets, Including the sea board, ware lower. Traders were disposed to neglect all the markets and wheat pries Inclined to sag, though frequent crop damage news came Into steady 'prloeav. Much damage was reported from Renews, Oklahoma, Texas, Missouri and Tenne ee. The news, from the last named state, waa perhaps the worst, but the trade was Inclined to treat It with Indif ference. However, speculators were pre easting no bad break In prices as long as there was aa uncertainty as to crop con ditions. The early strength In corn had soma strengthening effect. Bad wire serv ice) waa accountable for absence of busl puis and the outside stayed out of the market. May opened H"3Hn to H"Hc (-lower at 7Sam;Vic. sold to l6Ytmec, and when eom went off weakened and cloned heavy and weak and Ho lower at 763776HO.

Breadstuffs on passage Increased 1,806,009 buahela. World's shipments were 7,142,000 bushels, against 7,2M,0m) buahela last year. Corn was fairly strong during the greater part of the day, but late turned easy on the wheat weakness and on per 'ale tent selling by the local crowd. Ab sence of outside bualness restricted trad ing. Small receipts Influenced a fair early demand, as did also light offerings. There was more interest manifested In corn than In wheat and May opened o lower to Ho higher at (SlVo'SlHc, and steadily sold, up to 61a The market was well supported on all the little declines. Hut when selling continued steadily May slipped off to fflc and closed easy and Wt ic lower at 61H6lHc The receipts were lul cars. t Oats were nervous and erratic early, though there were no such fluctuations In May a on Saturday.

Provisions were strong earlv on hatter prices at the yards, but later selling and the grain weakness brought declines.

NEW TORK. Msrch 3 There wss some recovery In prices In today's market, but no oeaungs were on a very email scaie nd still restricted ODeratlons bv profes sionals of the smaller cla. The profes sional character of the operations was also revealed by the reaction at the close, when ne traders came to take their profits. 1 ne lay'a rains were not all wiped out.- but they were considerably impaired by this movements. The traders who bought stocks professed a feeling of encourage ment over the fact that the cold winter did not extend to the winter wheat belt. now denuded of Its snow covering. The significance attached to this shows that crop prospects are now to play a part in the stock market. There was also a vague confidence expressed in the future of the money market, which seems to be en couraged by the unruffled equanimity In mat market in race of the torcea or oe pletlon of the cash reserve In the banks now at work. The dealers In storks of fered as explanation of -their confidence the conviction that some of the heavy loans which have been taken out by syndi cate since the first of the year are about to be liquidated and will thua relieve the situation. The situation 1 dark as to the Identity of the syndicate borrowers snd as to the purchase to which the loans were applied. Another cause of the buy ing of stocks was the showing made by the railroads reporting their net earnings for January, following those already re- forted on Saturday. Of those reporting oday the moat Important was the Union Pacific which showed an Increase of I7i0. 611 In gross earnings for the month and of 8639,703 In net earnings. Union Paciflo stork itself made but a slight response to tnis showing, but it was an Influence in the firmness of the general market. Little at tention was paid to the reports of damage and interruption to traffic by floods, un less It might be In the neglect of the stocks of the railroads In the sections most Ef fected. The reports of . disputes over freight rates and passenger rates In the west and southwest were equally without Influence. So was the admission by vari out International banking houses that they would probably make large shipments of gold thin week. In spite of these factors, the professional traders, after a decline in prices for several days, made their tip ward turn In the market. The uncertain ties In the outlook, however, were mani fest In the small volume of the dealings. The Chicago ft Northwestern stocks made notable advances, the common rising 6 and the preferred 64 points on a light demand, said to -be for Investment. Rock Island so rose 3U ooints on light transactions. There was an early movement in the cot ton oil stocks on talk of the proposed ab sorption of other companies In allied trades. Tennessee coal was a feature on a renewal of. the gossip of buying for con trol by the United States Steel corpora tion, and It rose at one time 2Hpolnts, but lost about a point. General Blectrlo rose 1H points. A number of storks, both In the active and dormant list, were pushed up a point, while in some cases there wss sharp reactions, notably In the Mlnneanolls. St. Paul A Sault Ste Marie stocks, the common losing 1H an the pre ferred 24 points. The market closed easy at considerable, recessions. The bond merket waa auiL out nrm. Total sales, par value, 82.S6.00n. United States bonds were all unchanged on the last call. Commercial Advertisers London nnan- rlnl ca.hlesram: The stock market was firm and heavy, the continent showing an inclination to take the Illness of Cecil Rhodes gravely, although there waa no news beyond the mere fact of his Illness. The weakness In South Africans Influenced all kinds of stocks. Rio tlntos fell to 45, The fortnightly copper statistics show Increases In stocks of 2,133 tons and In supplies of 1,318 tons.

Total 8,435 1,914 4,316 CATTLE! There waa an extremelv llarht run of cattle here today, and In fact re ceipts were smaller than they have been on a Monday for some little time. Pack ers all seemed to be anxious for supplies, and as a result the market was active and higher all around. There were only a few cars of beef steers In the yards this morning, and in most cases the market was safely 6(&,10c higher than at the close of last week. Occasion ally sellers thought they did not get much more tnan 'tne same cattle would have brought last week, but still the market as a whole oould probably best be described by calling . It active and 610o higher. Owing to the light supply everything was disposed of in good season. ine cow marxet waa aiso active ana stronger when It came to anything de sirable. Cows and heifers that sold from 84.00 up, could safely by quoted 510o higher than last week. Sellers bad no trouble In disposing of what they had, as there did not seem to be enough cattle In the yards to meet the demand. The mar ket was not aa active on the medium grades and canners, but still fully as good prices were paid aa were In force lat week. Bulls, veal calves and stags all com manded strong prices where the quality was satisfactory. There were quite a few stock csttle in the varda this morning, but the demand seemed to be equal to the occasion, and practically everything was sold In good season at fully as good prices as were paid at the close 01 last weea. me better grades were, of course, in the beet de mand, but still even the commoner cattle sold without much trouble, Representa tive sales: BEEF BTKKRS.

The Liverpool cables were rather disap pointing and port receipts were consider ably larger than on the same day a year ago. Rumors that yarns In Liverpool were depressed helped to create a feeling of un easiness among smaller holders. But be fore the end of the first house the bears turned short about and hastily retreated before very bulllxh spot cotton market statements and splendid trade accounts from every quarter. European. Wall street and southern buying orders were leading the demand, but as the market worked higher a prominent local export houRe flooded the ring with May buying orders. The latter at once started rumors that Philadelphia Interests, too. were scram bling for cover and with a whirl March rose to 8.90c, May to 8.73o and July to 8.72c. Very light estimates for tomorrow's Hous ton and New Orleans receipts did much to hold the market firm during the latei ses sion. Above 8.70 for May and July realli- ' Ing sales were enormous, but every bale offered was quickly absorbed by thoroughly frightened bears. From time to time dur ing U , day New England spinners bought freely and Wall street picked up occasional blocks of the July option. Trading waa very active throughout, with sentiment at the close bullish on the prospect for smaller receipts during the rest of the week. The close was steady, with prices net 7 to 12 points higher.
