CHICAGO, March IS. Hud wheat crop
news wu the leading factor In the recov
ery of strength In the wheat pit after yea.
terday weakness. Tha warm weather In
fluenced lower prices In all grain at the
opening, but wnest lent oft Ita strength
and at the close May wheat was H'-Ho
higher. May com a shade under and May
oata c down. Provisions closed unchanged
to 2"c nigner.
Trade In wheat, as In other grains,
started out slowly. Wanner weather In
the winter wheat country and still more
nredlcted naturally killed all the cold
weather Influence. At the opening there
was plenty of wheat for sale, partly as a
. result of lower cables. Bhorts, however,
covered freely and there were several fair
reactions. Then bullish news began to ar
rive. Bradstreet' report Indicated a de
crease of 8,500,000 burOiels in the world'
available supply. This helped prices, as
did the receipt of the worst crop damage
complaints yet received from Kansas and
Oklahoma. It was reported that Manitoba
wheat was arriving freely at Duluth and
this proved a bearish Influence. On the
other hand prices for Manitoba wheat,
which a weak ago were 8c under May op
tions, were today only 7Hc under. The
western and northwestern movements were
curtailed as compared to last year's fig
ures. On the whole the yearly May wheat
prices were under yesterday's cleslng
prices, the crowd was Inclined to play for a
recovery. May, which opened a shade
lower to a shade higher at vCtSo, eased
to Ua and then reacted to 74c. Had
there been a fair volume of outside busi
ness the market might have shown con
siderable strength. St. Louis was a de
pressing, factor and the weather also pre
vented better prices. May closed firm,
Ho higher at 75c. .Receipts, 63 cars, 1 con
tract Minneapolis and Duluth reported 832
cars, a total for the three points of 436,
against 878 last week and 518 a year ago.
Primary receipts were 481,000 bushels, com
pared to 781,000 a year ago. Seaboard clear
ances equaled 198,000 bushels.
Early sentiment In corn was very bearish.
Cables were lower and the warmer weather
west worked against the demand. Belling
was general and at times heavy, though
the market had numerous dull spots. There
were no Important features and In the main
the market was poorly supported. Country
offerings were still small, but the recovery
attended the show of strength' In wheat.
May opened a0 to lower at 8144.9
When wheat recovered May com
sold to 6240. Offerings still were sufficient
to supply all demand and May closed with
a sngntiy easy tone, a snaao tower at aijao.
Kecelpta were 181 cars.
There was a little flurry in May oats
early. Traders had some selling orders to
execute and as the market deollned numer
ous stop-loss orders were met, and before
the market steadied May lost 1V4C Ner
vousness still Is manifested by trader over
the May deal. Oosslp has It that the prom
- Inent long holder has disposed of his stuff
nd has gone into July options. Both July
and September were fairly steady all day
snd fluctuated with the other grains. May,
which sold as low as 4Zc, recovered much,
but closed weak, So down at 44c Re
ceipts. 156 cars.
Provisions were very dull and fluctuated
narrowly. Bulls suffered a disappointment
over the action of the market, which in the
face of falling short of 14,000 head in the
hog receipt under estimates, showed little
life. The market did not feel the effect of
the fluctuations In grains. May pork closed
2Hc higher at $15.374, May lard unchanged
at 19 36 and May ribs Z4o higher at $8 .35.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
SO cars; corn, 70 cars; oats, 65 cars; bogs,
31.000 head.

most consistent movement of the day wa
that In the coaleis, which presented a spec
ulation on the outcome of the negotiations
between anthracite miners and nimrainri
for an agreement upon relation during the

CATTLE The receipt of cattle were not
excessive today, and as the demand was In
good shape trading was active and desir
able grades of fat stuff sold for fully as
much as was paid yesterday. All the buy
ers were out In good season, and It was
not long before the bulk of the offerings
was disposed of.
The proportion of fat steers to the total
receipts was rather light todify, and as
buyers seemed to nave quite liberal orders
the market took tin considerable life and
good, strong prices were paid for anything
at all desirable. In some cases the market
looked a little higher, but as a general
thins the situation could probably best be
described by calling It active and steady to
strong.
Good cow and heifer sold freely today
at good, strong prices. Anything showing
quality was picked up In a hurry, so that
everything answering to that description
was out of first hands at an early hour.
The demand for the medium graues and
canners was limited and sellers touno it
difficult to dispone of such kinds at any
price. The commoner the quality tne
harder the cattle are to sell, and the prices
paid are very uneven.
Hulls, veal calves and stags sold In prac
tically the same notches they have for the
last several day.
Thara were a arond manv stock cattle In
cluded In the receipts this morning, which,
taken with the liberal run of yesterday,
made a good many on, hand. Good stuff
held ateadv today, but when It came to the
commoner grades the market was slow and
lower. Buyers oo not iook so mucn at tne
lght as they ao at tne quality, mere
is a good demand for all weights showing
duality, but wnere inai is lacaing ine oe-
mand Is very limited, no matter what they
may welgn. iiepreseniauve eaies
