8 THE (TMAIIA DAILY IIE'Ej TUESDAY, APML 8, 1002. COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL Bulli and Br art Have a Lirely Bout in Wheat Pit LEADING CEREAL QUITS WITH ' GAIN Professional Movements Cheapen Ion, and Oals Also Snnr Wenk atss Provision Flnrtnnte Widely. CHICAGO. April 7. Grain spemlators hud conflicting opinions regarding '"''""i" tomfi of the winter wheat crop, which, "when they attempted to reconcile them with the weekly statistics, produced something of a Jagged miirket. Prices roKe and fell with the changing sentiment, but in the nd. In spite of corn weakness, May wheat ahowd gain of 4c, May corn closed 4c lower and .May oats Ho down. Provisions lost 5r to 124c. At the outlet there were numerous bullish Influences at work in the wheat pit. Cables were steady and there had been a big drop In the temperature. The Kannaa state crop retiort, however, wai the early bull factor. This estimate, which Saturday waa re ported at 74, wai corrected today to a con dition of only 70. aa compared to 105 a year ago. The report also showed a 1 obi of ViOmO In the acreage from last year and a possibly, decrease in the yield of 30.ooo.000 bushels. Other states had been sending In lower extlmHtes and these influenced an upturn in prices. Missouri was reported at i, against 98 last year; Ohio, 74, against 83, and Illinois (March figures!, 76. against SS. Under these Inlluences May wheat opened 4"(ic to Wuc up at 714714c. Shorts covered, there was some Rood buying and prices held firm for some time. A Chicago paper printed an exhaustive report of crop conditions, which, In spite of the damages In the southwest, promised about the same ..rr am laat vmr This factor, together with large weekly shipments and a smaller decrease in the visinie supply oi ,wu,uw bushels less than had been expected, wore away the edge of the bullish enthusiasm Hnd wheat began to weaken. Corn, which had some fair early support, also turned weak and helped push wheat backward. May wheat declined to 7o4ii7o4c, but the bulls turned In again to the support. Shorts covered again and there was a good rally, May closing firm, 4c higher at 71i871Se. Hecelpts were still small, the cash- business was moderate and the seaboard acceptances were very light. Klevators were liberal ellera. Commission houses worked on both sides of the market. Tfce crowd seemed disposed to wait for the government report to settle their misgivings about crop condi tions. Local receipts were 30 cars, none of contract grade. Minneapolis and Duluth reported 257 cars, making a total for the three points of 287 can, against 470 last week and 504 a year ago. Primary receipts were 346,000 bushels, compared to 691,0"0 bushels lust year. Seaboard clearances In wheat and flour equaled 335.0O0 bushels. World's shipments were 8.862,000 bushels, against 6.632,000 bushels last week and 8,102, Ooo bushels a year ago. Hreadstuffs on pas sage decreased only 350.000 bushels. The visible supply., decreased only l,2O6,0oO bushels. Corn ruled weak again. At the opening the wheat strength and the cold weather Induced liberal covering by the shorts and the pit crowd, anticipating a possible hull turn, loaded up pretty well with long stuff. Later when wheat eased they tried to sell and found nobody wanted It at the high prices. Scalpers were forced to BaTlflce their holdings and prices took a sudden drop. The shipping demand was reported very poor and helped In the depression. The southwest sold early and the market lacked bull support. Cables were steady and kept prices up for a time early, and smnll country offerings had a similar In fluence. The selling, however, was too much for prices and May, after selling at 694e, Blumped to 674c and closed weak. Ho down at R7WdWtc. Receipts were only 55 cars. There was little Interest In oats. Prices early were better with other grains, and provision houses bought some. May held rather steady, though at one time because of the growing weakness In corn it eased off from 43c to 424c. There was a partial recovery, after the somewhat free offerings of May stooped and May closed easy, He down at 424c. Receipts were 71 cars. Provisions fluctuated widely again on manipulation. The opening prices were higher on the better hog market and the grain strength. Liquidation soon set In however, and carried all orlces downward Packer sold freely at times, while scalpers bought. The market was not very active and corn weakness helned In the decline. Light weights in hogs were also on Incen tive. May pork sold from $16.55 down to 116.26, but rallied on covering to an easy close, uc lower at tio.i.-. May lard closed 124c down at $9,474 and May ribs 124c lower hi a. id. 78 cars; corn, 130 cars; oats, 135 cars; hogs si.taaj neao. The leading futures ranged as follows: Artlcles.l Open. Hlgh. Low.

Anrll 7. The upward move ment of stock which had attained some headway during the latter part of last week did not prosper today In face of the rapidly contracting supplies In the money market. The stocks which were made the leaders $f last week's movement were the chief sufferers from the selling. The total volume of dealings fell considerably below the 1,000.000 share mark touched on Friday, but considerably more man one-inira 01 the total was made ud of St. Paul. Louis ville & Nashville and Union Pacific. The selling lost St. Paul 24. Louisville & Nash ville 14 and Union Pacific 14- 1 This course of events naturally detracted somewhat from the Interest In the con jectures of the source of heavy demand for those stocks and tnis community 01 inter est and merger project which might be aimed at. Wall street's suspicion of last week that the movement was a specula tive maneuver to Invite a following In the general market was strengthened. The rather abrupt reaction In these stocks as a result or tne developments in tne money market was chiefly remarkable from the fact that those developments were gen erally admitted to be Impending last week. The answer made to this was that the abundance of capital in the west would re lieve the situation and would give free scope to the buying of stocks. But when tne can money rate snot up to 1 per cent tfils assurance did not avail to prevent throwing over of large amounts of stocks. The foreign exchange market was appar ently not In the least affected by the outgo of Ji.sou.ouo gold, snowing mat tne consign ment Is In payment of foreign obligations, as has been the case with preceding ship ments for some time. v Besides the gold shipment the banks have lost to the subtreasurv since the weekly bank statement some $338,000. There waa a deposit also 01 $100,000 In currency at the siibtreasury today ior transfer to Cincin nati, while New York exchange at Chicago Ten to zo cents discount, as tne Dana. tatement on Saturday showed the surplus reserve down to 32.649.62u. It will be per ceived that today's demands were- suffi cient to wipe out the surplus. ah departments or tne 11st were arrectea and the day's losses run quite generally from 1 to 2 points, and over that In excep tional cases. Amalgamated Copper Ignored the general tendency of the market, as It did when the market was go'.ng up, and rose at the last of the day to 14 over last week.

Packers, however, took hold in fairly good shape, and the bulk of the cattle was dis posed of In good season. , There were quite a few beef steers on sale today, but the .quality was far from being as good as It was last ween. Aa a general thing the market was about steady, put not very active. The more desirable grades of handywelght cattle sold without trouble, but when It came to the less de sirable kinds the market was draggy. Everything, though, was disposed of in good season at what looked to be about steady prices. There were several cars of hayied cattle on sale, and they sold to fully as good advantage as the cornfeds, and In some cases vales were made that looked a little higher. The cow market waa active and fully steady when it came to the better grades. but the medium kinds and canner.4 were a drug on the market, the same as they have been for some time past. Packers did not care whether they got such kinds or not, so that the prices paid were very uneven. Good Btuff, though, sold as high as ever, and a big bunch of heifers brought $6.00. Bulls, calvt and stags of good quality sold without much trouble, at about the bame prices that were paid last week. The stocker and feeder trade was In good shape when It came to those showing qual ity, and neavy ieeaers in particular snm well, and In many cases commanded slightly higher prices. The light and com mon stockers, though, were hard to move at any price, tne same as nas Deen tne case for some time past. Representative sales: BEE o 1 ccno. No. I 1..

Packers, however, did not like to pay the advance, ami as a result the hogs changed hands slowly. Owing to the light receipts, though. It wss not lung before the bulk of the dislrahle Ion tin was disposed of. letter in the morning the provision mnrket broke and the market closed very slow and weak. Resides that the lighter loads were left until the last, which also helped to make the clofe slow. In some cases the lightweight stuff sold a little better than on Saturday, but aa a general thing sellers could not get more than steady prices for that class of hogs. The bulk of the heavy weights sold from $6.65 to 16.78, and from that to $6X5. Mrtliitmwctghts went mostly from .6o to 86.65, and the light Btuff from gti.oa down. Representative sales: No. A v. Sh.

SHEEP There were nearly many sheep on sale todav as there were a week t'go and the market opened fairly active and Just about steady all around. Colorado Mexican lambs with the wool on sold as high as $6.55, and Standard clipped lambs sold at IS. 00, the same as they did last week. The Standard yearlings brought $5 611, which was also a steady price, so tn.it there was not enough change In the market to be worthy of mention. Sheep were very scarce today, and It is evident from the way packers act that good sheep are in active demand. There were not enough feeders on sale today to make a test of the market, but it is safe to say that anything desirable would command good, steady prices.
