CHICAGO. April 22 Wr-athT wbs ngnln
the ruling factor In (train speculation to-lay.
At no time was trading heavy, though
throughout the si-sston a strained, nervous
feeling waa present. May wheat closed a
shade lower. May corn He up and May oatg
e advanced. ITovlslons closed 2'jo to Hit
lr higher.
Heports of rains In the wheat belt tended
toward an early demoralization of the
wheat pit. Advices kept coming In every
where telling of the almost parched romll
tlon of the ground and stating that the
rains were by no means sufficient to s.ive
crops. Those who thought prices would go
rattling down Boon moved to relHpse their
hort lines. The southwest had weakened
materially on the rains, but imm advanced
above Chicago prices. Clearing weather
was reported where the rains were most
Heeded and an unexpected rise In prices
followed. Mav opened Sc to VrfNc
lower at 74fcifr7"4e and sold off to 74Va74c.
Then came hradst reefs report of t ..(.(
bushels decrease In the world's visible and
good buying resulted. Commission houses
that had sold liberally enrly for the south
west bought back rapidly. The local crowd,
orderly enough, was bearlshly affected be
cause the weather was somewhat cloudy
Jn Chicago. This, with reports of more
ralna southwest, caused a little late selling;
and after May had sold at 75'tiC closed
ateady, a shade lower at 74rmo. Receipts, 67
cars; Minneapolis and Duluth reported 179
cars, a total for the three points of 23fi,
against 134 last week and 3f2 a year ago.
primary receipts were .loi.Ouo bushels, com
pared with 3M,im a year ago. Seaboard
clearances equalled 211, of) bushels. The
seaboard reported 12 loads taken for ex
port. Com was largely under the Influence
of the wheat market and was something
of a waiting affair. Karly In the day prices
sagged off on the rain influence In the
wheat pit, though the natural condition of
corn would not permit of as maTked weak
ness as shown early In the other cereals.
rVIHng vai liberal and developed until
May sagged off from til',0 to 61V. - When
wheat rallied corn accompanied It and
showed better relative strength. There
was a bulling movement talked of by the
crowd that was conspicuously bullish In
July corn several weeks ago. This added
to the growing strength. Although the In
terior movement was a little better than
of late the crowd looked at the receipts
hullishly. May sold up to &!He on the re
action and closed firm. r, higher at 62V.
Trade was nervous, but rather quiet. Ke
celpts, 127 cars.
' Oats readily felt the bearlslt Influence of
tK3 rain reports, but rallied quickly with
the other grains. Trade was quiet. The
rain as yet has not been sufficient to re
lieve the fears for the new crop and the
general news of the feed situation Is not
encouraging. May sold as low as 42e and
a high as 43V, closing firm, V up at
y. Receipts. 248 cars.
Provisions were weakened early by a
weak hog situation. There soon developed
a strong cash market, however, and oft. r
liigs in futures were restricted. Packers
offered a fair support, especially In ribs,
which advanced best of the list. All prices
closed firm, May pork 2V higher at tit). 45.
Way lard 2V up at $9,674 and May ribs (V
7V higher at 9.(i24,fj!).S.

NEW YORK STOCKS ASH BONDS.
pecnlatlon In "tocks Seemingly Tired
and Bonds Are Weak.
NEW YORK. April 22. Today's stock
market had the appearance of being tired,
In the language of the brokers. A gallant
rally was made against the depression and
the sympathetic Influence of the rather
aggressive strength developed In some of
the stock and had the effect of checking
the advance In the western field, so that
the losses were pretty generally recovered
The action of Reading strongly Indicated
a culmination of the upward movement In
that stock and the taking of speculative
profits and an afternoon rally In the wheat
market reawakened the anxiety felt for
the winter wheat crop.
The western railroad Btocks fell away to
the lowest of the day and the gains which
had been established elsewhere among Im
portant railroad stocks melted away.
The market closed active and weak and
generally at the lowest. A violent break
In sugar to 1224 after selling up to 127H
was a contributing cause to the lata weak
ness and was attributed to the growing
apprehension that the differential duty on
sugar will be removed or the Cuban recip
rocity bill will fail.
There were the usual violent and erratic
movements In a number of specialties
which have come to be a regular feature
of the daily stock market. The upward
flight of Nashville, Chattanooga & St.
I-ouls was due to the reports subsequently
denied that the stock would be changed
for Ixnilsvllle A Nashville.
Rumors were revived of a consolidation
of the American Cotton Oil and Vlrglnia
Caaollna Chemical company. The move
ments in International Power, American
Grass Twine, Wells-Fargo, New York, New
Haven and Hartford, Long Island, the
Keokuk and Des Moines stocks and others
were unexplained.
The early recovery In the market was
stimulated by reports of showers In the
winter wheat belt, but the grain-carrying
roads showed a nervous tone throughout
and the real sustaining Influence In the
market waa the buying of the coalers, both
hard and soft, and the Morgan railroad.
The realizing In Reading left the market
vulnerable to the Influence of a rally In
the wheat market, although that was said
to be due partially to the heavy decrease
during the week In the visible supply of
wheat. Speculative opinion Is resigned to
the hope of only an average winter wheat
crop under promising conditions and la
prepared to expect a crop disaster In the
event of unfavorable conditions.
A reassuring effect was produced by In
difference expreased by the principals in
the Northern Securities company to the
filing of the suit In the supreme ctfurt
against the company on the ground that
the consolidated ownership of the proper
ties Is safe In any event, since only the
method of holding them Is aimed at bv
the suit. But any decision wh'.ch would
defeat the purchase of the constituent
companies by the change of their stock for
the stock of the new company would have
far-reaching consequence on many pro
jects under way and to which Wall street
looks for great res j Its.
London turned seller of stocks In this
market today, after having been a buyer
for several days, and thus helped to
strengthen the foreign exchange market.
Bonds were weak and the market gen
erally waa Irregular. Total sales, par
value, $3,345,000; United State 2a advanced
14 on the last call.
The Commercial Advertiser's London
financial cablegram says: Stocks today
were fairly brisk and cheerful, considering
the passover settlement tomorrow. Con
sols were hard at 94 7-16c. The new issue
was at 9-16c premium. American shares
moved cautiously after yesterday's fire
works. They began nominally above par
ity and remained steady, with some buy
ing of Southern Pacifies and Union Pa
cifies, but New York flattened both. New
York supported the market In the street,
the coalers and especially Erie, being
bright generally, and Louisville & Nash
ville and 8outhern Railway resumed favor.
Gold to the amount of 50,000 has been re
ceived from Egypt, 20.000 from Holland
and 105,000 in bars has been bought.
Money Is scarce. The market repaid 2.000,
GO0 of the 3,000,0(10 due the bank. Paris
exchange is 25.19; Berlin. 20.4K4. Stiver had
a rally. The speculators' spurt In Amer
ican was taken advantage of to drive the
bears to cover
The following are the closing prices on
the New York Stock exchange:

CATTLE There was a light run of cattle
ham indav mn that the receluts for the
two days this week are considerable smaller
than lor tne same uHys 01 mm
Local packers had quite liberal orders, so
that the market took on more life and
everything desirable was disposed of In
good season.
The bulk of the offerings was again mnde
up of beef steers, and the quality of sev
eral loads was good. As high as $6.85 was
paid, but as a general thing sellers were
nnt.Kiiiina the market more than active
and fully steady on desirable grade. There
was of course, more me 10 me irauc, nui
there were few sales that looked any
higher than yesterday's market. The cattle
that were lacking In quality were neglected
and hard to move at any price, and In Borne
cases that class of cattle looked a little
lower. It is evident that packers want
a-ood. heavyweigm came or eu B..i-

HOQS There was a moderate run of
hogs here today for a Tuesday, but as all
other markets were quoted lower prices at
this point also took a drop. The quality of
the offerings was considerable better today
than yesterday, so that the market on
paper does not show the full amount
of the decline. The general market was 541
ion lower. Some of the best hogs sold
close to yesterday's prices. bJt as a gen
eral thing the better weights were 5c lower
ami others et&Wc. lower. Trading was not
active at any time, so that It was late be
fore a clearance was made. The bulk of
the heavy hogs sold from rt.90 to $7. (in and
the medium weights from 8B.80 to W.W and
the light hogs from $6.75 down. As usual
the light stuff was very hard to move at
any price. Today's decline carries the
market back to about where It was on
April 12. Representative sales:

of sheep and lambs here today and the
quality of the offerings was far from being
good. Packers, though, took hold in good
shape and an active and strong market was
experienced. Everything was sold at an
early hour. Clipped wethers sold as high
as 85.80 and wooled wethers brought 85.77S.
Some Clipped ewes sold at 85.00 and clipped
lambs at 86.00. Packers all seemed to be
anxious ror good stuff, but as auch kinds
wero scarce they had to take the com
moner grades and pay strong prices for
mem.
