FARMERS LOOSEN AND CORN TUMBLES
TWkeat Qalckly Flanges la Its Wake
U4 Oato, Too, Respond to Dear
"V Ash Seatlraeat Provisions
SHadatly Depressed.
r CHICAOOLMay 28. Bears had their turn
At the grair market today. Oeneral con
'tUtlons were) moderately bullish, but It
I -was the corn pit that turned the tables
and the whojle list was forced to a weak
ness greater than yesterday's was strong.
The whole situation hinged on the liberal
'acceptances of Chicago bids by country
(holders of corn. These were bo much
'greater thai had been anticipated that
ijn-lces broke badly In the corn pit and
other grains suffered sympathetically.
July wheat closed lyii&llwc lower, July corn
IHViilo daavn and July oats Vo down.
iFrovlsloria closed unchanged to a shade
Uower.
T Weakness ruled In corn from the open-
kins.
The sharp advance nere yesieroay
(influenced csan nouses io avn umi
IMds In the country and the farmers Jumped
at the higher prices eagerly. Before noon
lodvlcea indicated l,00f,ot)0 bushels sold to
(Chicago. Iru the pit the cash houses that
(bought this stuff at once sold against It
and forced prices down below the low
plica before-! yesterday's bulge. Other art
fvlcea were ttearlsh and were Influences In
I the depression. Cables were unrespon
sive, crop reports were good and good
jweather was) reported In the corn belt.
lAs prices phinged downward there was
boms fair cash business, but It did not
Serve to steady the market much. Wheat
(weakness, which started on the corn re
action, was an, additional bearish Incentive,
rl'he weakness showed no signs of abate
ment and July, which was yesterday worth
4c, and wiilch opened today at 64o to
Mc. closed weak and mtoic lower at
)gii'44fSc. Receipts were small at 1(6 cars,
(but because of the free acceptances the
movement Is .expected to Increase,
h Wheat showed some early weakness on
rthe foreign weakness, which was based on
khe favorable government weather report
Bier. The southwest was bearish on crop
(prospects and sold freely. There was a
ifioavy selling trade, although a few com
mission houses bought. The weather was
karood everywhere for crops. As corn
turned very weak, wheat was depressed
'till further, and the weakness it developed
eemed to be so thoroughly saddled upon
ithe market that even late reporta of slxty
flve loads sold at the seaboard for ex-
Jorts, and four loads worked here direct,
slled more than to steady the slump a
itrlfle over the bottom figures. July opened
Vc to Ho up at 737c to 73c, slumped to
Fll'iUa.lV'ta and closed weak and lhi.ijlo
down at 7272?c. Local receipts were
J6 cars, 6 of contract grade; Minneapolis
end Duluth reported 130 cars, making a
(total for the three points of 148 cars,
5 gainst 105 last week, and 215 a year ago.
rtmary receipts were 231,000 bushels, com
pared to 880,0(10 bushels a year ago. Sea
board clearajnces In wheat and flour equaled
B80.000 bushels.
. There was little of Interest In oat. The
Nreaknem of -the other grains and excep
tionally good crop reporta Induced selling
rnd brought recessions. News features,
owever, were unimportant. The "May
Weal," which has been the bugaboo of this
fit, and which has restricted trade In It
or some time, will be out of the way
Saturday, aiter which the traders expect
snore Interest n the pit. Traders gen
erally concede that ahere will be conslder-
?ible settling by shorts with the May bull
eader without deliveries.. July closed He
down, rather weak at 87Vs37c. Receipts
Were smaller at 136 cars.
Provisions were dull after showing fair
strength early In the day. The hog situa
tion was firm and early buying was fair.
The grain weakness, however, caused
(liquidation and a loss of the early gains.
(Packers did not support the market late
In the day. July pork closed unchanged
at $18.07, July lard a shade lower at
"Ubiij'lO.lfVfc and July ribs unchanged at
89.82.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
CO cars; corn, 180 cars; oats, 206 cars; hogs,
B6.000 head.

NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS.
Oatslde Interest Larking; and Spec
ulation Room Trading; Affair.
NEW YORK, May 28-Today's stock
market offers small subject for comment.
It was strictly an affair of room trading
of a class which Is known in stock ex
change parlance as "trading Jackknlves."
The. pronts made on the loss sustained
were confined to the limits of the board
room. Outside orders were Insignificant.
The fact that the rise of something over
a point In Reading was accompanied by
rumors that developments were impend
ing encouraging a hope of the settlement
of the coal strike waa of very little welijht
and many Wall street brokers had dis
patches from the mining region reporting
Jhe prospects unchanged, without affect
ng the small gaming that was In progrens.
The buying of St. Paul waa Just as little
accepted as Indicating any Important de
velopment In the progress of the crops,
although the weather map was favorable
and the sharp reaction In the grain mar
kets offered some corroboration.
There was some demand for the soft coal
carriers on the ground that the shortage
of anthracite enhances the demand for
soft coal as a substitute, but Ithere is the
doubtful element also of the possibility of
the success of efforts making to gex tna
bituminous coal miners to Join the an
thracite strikers.
The 3A nolnts rlss In Hocking Valley
had as additional grounds the report of a
proposed increase In the dividend rate.
Pressed Steel Car moved upward again
today, but did not hold the gain and tne
tendency to sympathy of stocks In other
railroad equipments 'om panics found its
most effectual effect In Railway Steel
Spring, which moved up over a point.
The speculative realising In Canadian
Pacific continued today and removed the
stimulating enect 01 tne recent: rise in
that stock from the market. The feeling
of disappointment over the lack of defi
nite peace announcement ny tne cnunn
cabinet had some slight reflection at the
nneninar here. A sham break in the Lon
don market for raw copper helped to keep
back Amalgamated copper, rne approacn
of a half-week holiday emphasized the
disposition to refrain from speculation. A
good part of the advances were lost on
room profit-taking and the market closed
ureieas and neavy.
The trie rV At for bonds WSB dull but
steady. Total sales, par value, $1,910,000.
United States Donos were ail uncnangea
on the last call.

CATTLE There were more cattle on sale
today than yesterday, or the dav before.
but still the receipts for the first half of
tnis week are considerably smaller tnan
for the same days of last week or of last
year. The market was not very active, and
in some cases looked a little lower, but still
very satisfactory prices were paid aa a
rule.
The fact that Chicago was quoted wesk
to a dime lower this morning naturally
weakened the feeling here to some extent,
but still the better grades of beef steers
sold at right around steady prices as com
pared with yesterday. The kind, however,
that packers were not as anxious for were
a little slow and In some cases sales were
made that looked a trifle lower. The situ
ation could, perhaps, beat be described by
calling the market steady to a shade lower.
The nignest price 01 tne year was Pal
today for a heavy bunch of cattle. They
weighed 1,639 pounds and sold at $7.40. As
will be seen from the sales below, there
were a good many cattle above $7, so that
the quality today was good. Although
trading was not particularly active at any
time, still piacticauy everyming was dis
posed of in good season.
There was not very much change In the
cow market today so far as the better
grades were concerned. '1 ne same aa was
the case witn steers, ouyers aia not seem
to be overlv anxious, but still they took
the good stuff and paid Just about steady
prices for It. The commoner grades were
neglected, the same as usual, and In most
rum anlrl a little lower. The fact that
Chicago waa quoted 40060a lower yesterday
than a week ago maae puyers ratner pear-
lsh at this point.
Bulls, veal calves and stags all sold at
right around steady prices where the
nntilltv was at all aood.
Stockers and feeders were In pretty good
demand this morning and offerings were
light, anything at all good met-wlth ready
sale at fully steady prices. Common stuff,
although slow, was steady. Yesterday
there were 14 cars 01 came snipped to tne
country. Representative saies;

HOGS There was a bis? run of hors here
today, but that did not nrevent the market
from advancing fully a nickel over yester
day. Packers were all anxious for supplies
and as a result they were out early, and,
while a few loads sold on the start at not
much better prices than were paid on yes
terday's close, still it was not long before
the market was generally a nickel higher.
It was the most active market that has
been experienced here in a long time and
everything was disposed of In good season.
As the morning advanced the market
seemed to gain in strength, so that on the
close sales were made that were easily
64j7He higher than yesterday's general
market. M he quality of the offerings was
good and fully up to the average.
The better weight hogs sold largely from
$7.05 to $7.20 and the medium weights went
Irom $6.95 to $7.05 and the lighter loads
sold from $6.95 down. Representative sales:

SHEEP There waa a fair slied run of
sheep and lambs here today, but the
market held steady and ruled fairly active.
The quality was a little better than It has
been of late, so that packers were more In
terested than usual. There were some
clipped Iambs good enough to sell at $6.35
and some spring lambs sold up to $7.00.
Clipped yearlings sold for $5.75 and a good
Yiumh of cliDoed ewes broueht 85.25.
There were some Oregon grass sheep on
sale and they brought $4.76. It was a very
satisfactory market all around and every
thing was out of tlrst hands In good season.
