General Concession that Wheat
State Hare Enoagh Rata
for the Preaeat.
CMICAOO. March l.l.-There ' a va
riety of experiences In the grain pits to
day. WrakiwM characterized the market,
a good strength developed later, particu
larly In the coarse grains, but In the end
the ii dual eprlnctlme decline seemed to be
In order and May wheat closed Tfc&'le lower,
May corn HW"to lower and May oata c
higher. Provision, after opening strong,
cloned a ehade lower.
There was little declalve news In wheat.
Cabins were not responsive, northwestern
receipts were Increased enough to be bear
ish and It waa generally conceded that there
was rain enough for the wheat states for
the present. The weather waa seasonable
and statistical Journal gave decidedly
bearish advices, tinder these Influences
Mar wheat opened 4c to o lower at 76Hc
to 7t4c. Corn showed soma strength and
helped wheat, back to Its yesterday's clos
ing position. There seemed for a time to
be an effort on the part of local leaders to
bull the market, but the covering which
advanced May gave way on heavy selling
for Ht. Louis and It waa evident that It
was bolstering that aided the tone. Spring
wheat seeding has been started and there
aeemed to be inclination to let wheat And
a level for export advices from the east
my that foreign markets are preferring
WanUoba wheat to our exports. Farmers
are reported plowing up their worst wheat
fields and damage reports still came to
hand. The selling, however, depressed prices
of May down to 75lc and the close waa
weak, with May &lc lower at 75H75Hc.
Receipts, 40 cars, one of contract grade, and
Minneapolis and tuluth reported 348 cars,
a total for the three points of 422 cars,
against 2fi6 last week and 2f4 a year ago.
Primary receipts were 447.000 bu., compared
to 461,000 last year. . Seaboard clearances In
wheat and flour equaled 604,000 bu. The
seaboard reported thirty loads taken for
export.
Corn made the best show of strength of
any of the pits. Prices were at a little
decline at the opening In sympathy with
wheat. Good support, however, developed
at once. Southwestern markets were higher
and sent in buying orders. Cables were
slightly tip, receipts were small, the In
terior movement was alow and reports had
It that there was a good feeding demand.
There was also a fair Immediate shipping
demand. Prices soon broke away from the
depressing Influence of wheat and even
helped that cereal to some extent. May
corn early sold up to 62c. Then came
the wheat break and liberal selling of
corn on spring influences followed. May
lost its nolo ana sua ore to oi'c, closing
at that figure, weak, being o lower than
yesterday's close. Receipts were 112 cars.
There was some small action In May oats
today and for a time It was thought the
expected flurry waa at hand. Prices of
other options were slightly lower, but May
started unchanged. The heavy long hold
ings In May still keep the shorts on tenter
nooks, wnen corn ana wneat Drone May
lost some of Its gain, but other options
closed easy. May closed Vic higher at 45He.
Receipts atlll continue small and were (6
cars.
Provisions ruled steady. The opening was
firm and higher on better prices for hogs
and there was a further advance on buying
of pork and some ribs. Brokers supplied
the demand and the late grain weakness
took the strength out of the market. May
pork closed 5c lower at $15.40, May lard
SHc down at 13-40 and May ribs a shade off
at SS.4&8.424.
Estimated receipts tomorrow: Wheat, 80
cars; corn, 90 cars; oats, 70 cars; hogs,
87.ono head.

Labor Controverales Are a Depressing;
Factor Generally.
NEW YORK. March 13.-Todavs stock
market was again an affair of specialties,
and the movement In the active leaders of
the market was exceedingly confused and
Irregular, and presented many direct re
versals of the recently prevailing move
ment in special stocks.
The stocks of the largely capitalized
railroad systems of the country which as
sume the leadership of the market in times
of great general specufatlon were neg
lected and almost Immovable. In such
tocks as Union Pacific. Southern Pacific.
Atchison, St. Paul and Missouri Pacific, as
well as many other usually active stocks,
the outside range for the day did not cover
more than point and in some only V.
Yet the large dealings In some of the
largely capitalized industrials and In rail
road specialties of small capitalization
there was sufficient activity to give the
market some appearance of animation.
Amalgamated Copper continued the most
active stock In the market and the acute
weakness of yesterday was overcome bv
vigorous support. After ruling a fraction
below last night during the early part of
tne aay it rose above in the afternoon and
finished with a net gain of a point. Sugar
took Amalgamated coppers place in the
column and suffered an extreme decline of
nearly S points, but recovered all but a
fraction of It. The varying opinions on the
chances of Cuban sugar for a tariff con
cession were the speculative matter in this
stock. Manhattan was very active and ad
vanced strongly. An uncovered snort in
terest was reported to be a factor In this
advance, but reports were circulated of
large earnings. Other strong points were
North America, the International sliver
stnnka And n. n , i mhpr nf mtnnr anAnlnlttM
without any explanation. Strength in lhe Wetlnlh' Com.
sort coalers was aue to tne tie er tnat I uranui
agreements had been reached with the
miners. The Anthracite roads, on the
other hand, reflected a recurrence of un
easiness over the labor question, due to re
ports or a tnreatened strike in a Lacka
wanna company's mines. Reports of labor
controversies in various parts of the coun
try were discussed with interest and were
a somewhat depressing factor generally.
The Anthracite roads In consequence were
Interrupted In their advancing tendency of
yesterday. The rise in St. Louis South
western preferred was due to the an
nounced success of the plan for the con
version of the company s second income
bonds. Trade reports from the iron and
steel Industry were responsible for the ad
vance In the stocks of companies In that
trade. In which the United States Steel
stocks participated only moderately, owing
to the discussion of the proposition for a
bond issue for retirement of part of the
preferred stock and for acquiring addi
tional properties.
While special stocks were advancing
others were affected by profit-taking sales,
arter having enjoyed recent substantial ad
vances. The deposit of $750,000 at the sub-
treasury for transfer to San Francisco
called renewed attention to the situation
of the money market. Not counting this
withdrawal the subtreasury operations and
previous transrers and gold exports show
losses by the banks since the last state
ment of upward of $6,000,000. as aa-alnst a
surplus last Saturday of only $.11,958,426,

HOGS Tli,r wuu a rnnd AveraffA run of
hogs here tousy, as will be seen from the
table ot receipts above. The demand was
In good shape, however, so that the mar
ket opened lainy active and steady to
strong, as compared with yesterday. Some
sales in tact looked a Utile higher. Toward
the close of the market, however, buyers
seemed to have their more urgent orders
tilled and were a little bearish. The ad
vance or the morning was all but lost and
more, too, and the close could best oe
described by calling it slow and weak. Sell
ers were holding ior the morning bids, so
that it was rather late before anythij
like a clerance wa made. The liglu-
weignt stuff was neglected, the same as It
has been lor some time paet. Heavyweight
hogs sold largely from $6.20 to $6.35 and as
high as $6.40 was paid. Medium welgHts
went from $6.10 to 46.20 and light hogs sold

CATTLE There were fully as many cat
tle on sale today as there were yesieraay
and packers aid not take hold with as
much lue as they have on the previous
aays ol this week. For that reason trail
ing was a little slow and the morning was
well advanced beiore the bulk 01 me ot
terings was disposed ot.
Steer buyers sianea in irora uie Begin
ning to naund the marget and tney iuc-
ceeued to quite an extent. It wag notice
able that the market was rawer uneven
and In fact could be quoted all the way
trom steady to a dime lower. Some sales
were made that loked lust about steady,
but as a rule the cattle sold all the way
irom weak to a dime lower in extreme
cases. The commoner tne came me naroer
they were to dispose oc at satisfactory
prices. Sellers did not like to take off mucn
loaay ana iw inn. t icmvh 11 v m lo wj
fore there was anything like a clearance.
The cow mantel aia not snow mucn
change from yesterday. The good stuff
continued In active demand and practically
steady prices were paid. Canners, however,
and tne meaium grades were negiectea,
the same as tney nave been tor some time
past. Canners In particular werj hard to
move at any price. There waa not enough
change In the quotations on bulls, veal
calves and stags to be worthy of mention.
The demand tor stockers and feeders waa
about equal to the supply and no troubia
was experienced In getting steady prices
for the cattle showing Quality, no nmLtr
whether they were llgnt or heavy. There is
a fairly gooa aemana now ior cattle of
all weights, but they must be ot good qual
ity, iveunieiiiuv 1.0 .
