Trade was almost entirely professional In char lacter, and, although wheat had a few 1 bulllah Influence, lower prices were the Jeneral rule. July wheat cloaed He lower, uly corn 94l'c lower and July oata He up. Provlsfnna closed 2V,44"Hc depressed. Early In the session wheat showed some tendency toward a Rood bull movement. Cables were higher or steady, regardless of our losses yesterday. Receipts In the 1 northwest were still very small. In ad dition to this, rain begun falling again In itbe northwest and advices from the Red river vallev told a very bullish story of delayed spring seeding. Offerings at the opening Improvement were not sufficient for the small demand and prices worked up to TMiSjT&c for July, after opening a shade to H&'ao up at 75c to Wa't'. General harvest news, however, was prom ising. The northwestern curtailment of re ceipts were Deginning to lose some 01 tii--.r bullish effect Further, the export demand was Inactive. Kansas millers made a re port of tho condition of their state crop, in dicating a yield of 63,000,000 bushels, quite a bearish advance over the recent scare f a reduction to 26,000,000 bushels. The bearish factors In the end served to start some fairly active selling. There was lit tle support, most of the crowd waiting for 'a leaner, juiy siunipeu Fumyi? an, iclosed c down at 74'4fi76c. Local re I elpts were 20 cars, 3 of contract grade; Minneapolis and Duluth reported only S9 'ears, making a total for the three points fof too. ram. aeiilnst 204 last week, and 211 a vear ago. Primary receipts were 168.0U0 kbushels, against 3n3,O0O bushels last year. -Argentine shipments were 624,000 bushels, Wmnarerl to 778.000 bushels a year ago. iSeaboard clearances In wheat and flour equaled 400,000 bushels. The seaboard re nnrtAil AO Innris taken for exDort. Corn showed weakness all day. Cables were lower to start wun ana irom every where came reports of favorable weather and promises of a bumper yield of corn ithls season. The cash demand was slow fand what there waa of It, was being filled easily. Freer offerings of cash stuff were (reported rrom interior points or jowa ami l Illinois and receiving houses were moder- ?te sellers against purchases In the coiyri ry. The bull party made no apparent 'effort to support the market and the de mand came chiefly from shorts with profits. Local receipts showed, so far, but little Inclination to Increase, but tips from the I country insisted that within a week the dally run here would be 200 cars, where now I It Is generally below 60. Trade was much restricted, but the. decline was steady. !Julv sold down from 62N.C to a weak close, Kc lower at 6161c. Receipts were 68 cars. Oats were very dull and made almost no appreciable changes. There was no out side business In the pit and the local acalnera were waiting for developments : There was a general decision to not sell ; short much further until more decidedly 'bearish news came to hand. The moist weather northwest deterred the bears from following the action of the other pits. July, new, sold at 387,c and closed HSiSio UP at 6'&36kC- Receipts were 108 cars. Provisions ruled weaker and needed the . support that came meagcrly from the crowd heavily Interested on the bull side. The larger run of hogs at most of the i western packing centers and the lower firices at the yards Induced llbersl sell ng. Trade was rather light. July pork closed 7Hc lower at 117.35, July lard &Sf7He down at 110.30 and July ribs 2V,c up at 39.70 9 72H- Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat, 30 cars; com, 60 cars; oats, 140 cars; hogs, 30,000 head.

NEW YORK May 1 Bradstreet's says Conditions governing trade lack unl formity and explain Irregularity In ad vices from dl.Yarent sections.

VK than In 1899. while spring wheat promises well. Oats promises well and cotton cropaa- vlces are also more favorable. Produce prices and dalrv products sre weakening as supplies Increase, but meats sre still high, ahd permanently lower prices are not looked for until autumn. Notable strength Is still shown in prices of munv Mtsnlea nsrtlcularlv those in which speculation Is not very prominent. Cash wheat, flour and corn are all higher on the week, hog products hsve advanced, hides are at about the highest point in years and copper, long a laggard, Is stif fening in price on tree consumption. Cotton is prominent among tne bihii- declining, but the depression Is most marked in futures, iTini cioms are -n cent lower. Sugar Is unsettled. The decrease in European Deet sowings Is onlv a small one, and raws and refined are lower, but the canning season Is ap proaching, and a large yield Is looked for, as the fruit crops promise well. Coffee Is no higher and supplies sre very heavy. Anthracite coal, as a result of tne smite, has been marked up $1 per ton by retailers. Dry goods sre quiet at the east, out tne drop In print cloths Is not regarded as Indicating sny weakness, orders for iaii prints are at value. Rather more Is doing In wool, ths new crop of the west Is higher than last yesr.

Anthracite Strike Keenly Felt and Whole Stock List Is Weak. NEW YORK. May 16. The conspicuous feature of today a weak stock market was entire lack of any supporting demand at any stage of the decline. Even the room shorts, who almost Invariably cover short contracts a the end of a day of declining prices, showed no solicitude about cover ing, and the market seemed entirely to lack resiliency. The liquidation was not neavy, but such as It was was very general. While the rleciitlnn nf tho anthracite miners for a strike was the ostensible cause of tne weakness, the deDresslon was not connnea to the coalers, nor was it particularly con spicuous there. Reading was first in point or activity, dui allowing for Its half shares the sales were but little In excess of those of Union Pa clllc. The three-point decline In Reading was fairly attributable to the fact that It has been selected aa the representative ot recent speculative confidence on the coal trade outlook. Other shares were active eouallv Wltn the balance of the market, with losses of from one to three nolnts. Confidence in a favorable outcome of the strike to the benefit of the coal operators continued to be expressed in Wall street today. But this could not alter the general Impression that a prolonged and serious struggle is in prospect. 11 aia not neea the formal announcement by President Mitchell of the Duroose of the miners to make the strike a national mining strike to awaken anxiety over tne pobsidio ex tension or the labor trouble by sympatny Into other fields, and especially into the bituminous coal fields. The effect upon the Iron and rteel indus tries, already struggling with scarcity of material of all kinds, would be most notable. Reports of an advance of $4 a ton In the Drlce of southern Iron rather strangely added to the depression, as it Is felt that the maintenance of the high level of con sumption Is dependent upon the sustained steadiness of the price. Attention was given also to the estimate of the Iron Age that the producing capacity of pig Iron for the country would be Increased 300,000 tons this year and 4,000,000 tons by tne end of 1909. The wet weather In the northwest retard ing the seeding of the crops may have been a depressing Influence, although the weakness In the com market should nave been a fair offset. In snlte of the week s reDorta of larxe movements of cash toward New York the preliminary estimates today from the known movements of money Indicate a gain of only about $1,000,000 after allowing lor tne aosorpiion oy tne suDtreasury operations. mere is tne usual mystery snout ins effect of the week's shifting of loans on the lean account 01 banks themselves There haa been undoubtedly a areat ex tension of credits In foreign markets, but It Is not clear whether the local liquids tlon In the stock market has gone to the rerjavment of loans to the banks them selves or to the trust companies. The mar ket closed Inanimate at about the lowest. Bonds were dull and lrreaular. Total sales, par value. $2,860,000. United States bonds were all unchanged on the last call.

Iliht run of oat- tie here w.day for even a Friday, so that the suppl y for the week to considerably less than for the same days of last year. ' v ttie neavier man tor last week. Packers were all anxloua for supplies, so that tb e trade ruled active from start to nnlsh and everything waa disposed of In sTod f reason. Bees', eteers again made up the bulk of the jfferlngs and the quality was rery good . Oowing to the light receipts there 'r hardly enough to go around, so that buy erg were ail out early and were bidding tp jnger prices.- On such kinds aa they w .nted the market looked 64710c higher, so that the market today was at the high V int of the year. A bunch of steers sold s high as $7.20, which Is the high price of ' he year. For the week the deairabla gradea are fully 2030c higher. The me- mum cattle nave not improved as mucn as the good to choice grades, but still they are also somewhat higher than they were a week ago. The cow market was fairly active today, but still buyers did not seem to be as anxious for cow stuff as they were for steers. The best grades sold steady to strong, but on other kinds trade was not very active and the prices paid did not look any more than steady with yester day. Bulls, veal calves and stags all sold with out difficulty at yesterday's quotations where the quality was at all satisfactory. There were very few (tuckers and feed ers on sale this vn rnlng. so that prices were strong, even though It Is the Isst end ot the week. A bunch of white faces sold art high as $5.20, but the quality was of course choice, yesterday tnero were nine cars shipped to tav country. Representa tive sales; BEEF STEERS. A. Pr.

About all that was on salo today was a few bunchea of dinned weth ers and yearlings, which sold at to. 50, which was considered a good, steady price. There were no iambs on sale to test tne market, but It was evident from the way packers acted that they were anxloua for either good lambs or good sheep.
