Crop Wtkrr and Alnfe ot Export RoalnrM Overcome Ap parent Bullish Sentiment and ' , Three Xeadere Cloae Lower.. ' CHICAGO, March 25 Speculation In fining waa of a see-saw nature today. Fl here was lejs forco to the markets than on Monday, leaiwrs were lea active and tlher waa nothing great in the general trade to follow. Good crop weather and an absence of export business worked against the bulls, and at the close My wheat waa a Bhade under, May corn t,c flower and May oata c down. Provisions closed 2Vo to 7Ho lower. Leaving out crop damage reports, which (traders In wheat refuae to consider serl lously, there was little news to help the Iwheat bulls. Cables were Indifferent and closed somewhat lower. English caMes re ported cargoes on passage flat and New Tork had no foreign acceptances over night. The sentiment prevails that the continent filled up pretty well last week ithe break. May opened U'S'tto to fcfco down at 73o to 7lTc, but recovered on some buying for short accounts. The continued long eellng, though quiet, took off the edge of advances and prices fluctuated nar rowly. When to any lose, however, waa as quick to rally from a dip as to react from a bulge. Late In the day May sold at 7210. The close was steady, May la shade under at 72to. Weakness In the coarse grains at St. Louis, as well as a reduction in arrivals, compared with those of last year, worked against good i advance. Receipts, eighty-one cars; 'three contract grade; Minneapolis ana lu lluth receipts were 292 cars, a total for the three point of 874 cars, against 434 last week and 606 a year ago. Primary re ceipts were, 442 bushels, compared to 624, 5o0 bushels last year. Seaboard clearances 'equalled 878,000 bushels. Bradstreet's re port of world's stocks showed a decrease of a year ago. Corn waa heavy at the opening on ca Mos and continued weak most of the ses sion. Warmer weather favored plowing and a better movement and receipts were I somewhat better. St. Louis also sold here early In liberal quantities. May started S'WHa to WUo lower at .68u8Vo. but on Igood outside buying orders a quick rally was made to 68Hc. The west reported good calls for corn from the country, but tt Is fioenlble that they were for seeding. Later a the day the local holders let go liberally iani May lost Its hold again, selling down no 68c. A reaction on covering purchases .followed again, but the close was weak. May o lower at WAtif&- Receipts, 207 cars for two aays. , Trade in oats was Inclined toward dull ness. So few people dare to trade In May oats that orders are hard to execute. Country offerings were light and estimates small, though the receipts today were llb- leral. Early the tone was weak with other grain weakness. May closed easy, Ho lower I at 4ZKc Receipts, 226 cars. i Provisions were nervous for a time, but , eventually lost some of their recent gains on liquidation uy iuuks. i nw cubii biiuh. tlon was strong and the yards reported a good hog market. Some of the smaller Backers were inclined, to support the mar ket and there was good buying by Invest ors both local and outside. May pork sold to 116.06, but closed 2o lower at $15. MH. Lard cloned at 7V4c off at 19.624, and. May ribs XaRV,o lower at $8.724. Estimated receipts tomorrow: Wheat, 80; corn, 120; oats, 95; hogs, 37,000 head. i The leading futures ranged as follows: '.Articles. Open. I Hlgh.j Low. I Close. Yes'y. 'Wheat I I I I I !

CORN Inactive; 8 white, 4240 billed basis of 81.30 for New York Mining quotations. NEW YORK. March 25. The following are the closing prices on mining stocks: NEW YORK STOCKS AND UONDS. Additional Selling; of Stocka Dae to Approach of Triple Holidays. NEW YORK. March 25. Today's stock market began to reflect the expectation of the coming triple holiday from Thursday until the Monday after Easter. So long an Interval in the trading always prompts some closing out of acounts. The issuance of lnlunctlons against west ern railroads forbidding rebates and rate cutting waa not unexpected, but the re ported determination of the Interstate Commerce commission to hold a further and stringent inquiry into the rate .ques tion was a surprise and had a chining in fluence. There was a slump of more than Dolnts In Evansvllle & Terre Haute. The advance waa renewed In Colorado Fuel, after some early heaviness, and the stock gained 34 points, allowing for the divi dend off. North American made a further UDward dash and late in the dav the Kan sas City & Southern stocks and the Minne apolis, Bt. jaui c sauu ate Marie stocks forged upward without explanation. These gains were the exception to the rule, which was on the side of losses. Amalgamated Copper was supported In face of the post ponement of the Anaconda dividend, meet- ng and closed with a small gain. There was heavy selling of the Wabaah debenture bonds with a loss -of 14 per cent. Otherwise bonds were steady. Sales, par value, $2,300,000. United States bonds were all changed on the last call. The Commercial Advertiser's London financial cablegram says: The stock mar ket had a sagging tendency today, with an absence of buHlness. The public la in clined to hold aloof before the holidays. American snares were idly auu, closing weak. New York coming as a general seller, ' particularly of Erie and United States Steel. Rio tlntos sold at .424 and Anaconda broke 5-16 to 61 8-16 in dread of the Amalgamated copper situation. The sum of 20,000 in gold has gone to Bermuda.

The better grades changed hands qu)te freely, but the activity waa not of very long duration. After packers had their more urgent orders filled they lowered their bids so that the market closed slow, with the most of the advance lost. Sellers were holding for the morning prices and were not willing to make the concessions asked and for that reason It was lute before anything like a clearance waa made. The most of the good weight hogs sold from $6.40 to $6.60. Medium weights went largely from $6.30 to $6.40, and the lighter loads went from $6.25 down. Today's advance carries the market to the highest point reached in some time past. Representative sales No. Av. 8h. Pr. No. Av. Bh.
