Strength in Com Eo;:s All Grains on

Inge Especially.
CHICAOO, Feb. 26. The strength In corn
aided. the other grains today mid higher
prices prevailed. May wheat cloning a shade
higher, May corn tM,c higher and oata
up Hfa'ae. Provisions were strong and the
May product! cloned unchanged to 12Vc
higher.
Wheat ruled dull throughout the day,
but the market showed considerable
strength, prlclpallv on the advance of corn.
The northwest and other markets were
firm and arrivals In the northwest much
mailer than a year ago. The opening was
teady on cables and May was a shade
lower to ft shade higher at 77V4Ji&77,,4c. The
good demand for corn early In the session
atarted shorts to cover and the market he
came strong, May selling u to 77c. The
foreign news was still bearish and after
the most nervous short had covered, and
with no material support from the outside,
prices weakened and the close was about
' steady, with May a shade higher at 77V.
Clearances of wheat and flour were equal
to 176.000 bu. Primary receipts were 4m,uoO
bu., against 656,000 bu. a year ago. Minne
apolis and Duiuth reported receipts of 2
cars, which, with local receipts of 15 cars
none of contract grade made total receipts
lor the three points 317 cars, against 177
cars last week and 570 cars a year ago.
Higher cables caused strength In the corn
pit at the opening and good buying on the
light receipts, and on predictions of un
settled weather, added to the early advance,
the market ruling strong throughout the
day. A large volume of business was
transacted, but the greater portion of it
was for local account, provision Interests
being heavy buyers of the May option
while selling July. There was a fair cash
and export demand, which helped prices.
The close was strong, with May H'ftViC
higher at 4HVc. after selling between 46c
and 46Nc The continued scarcity of con
tract grade stuff was a strengthening In
fluence. Of the 256 cars received none wre
up to grade.
Oats were helped by the strength In corn
and small receipts, but the volume of trad
ing was light and confined mainly to locals.
The sentiment was bullish the entire day,
and the close was strong and at a fair ad
vance, Mny being Vi'p'iic higher at
3.c, after ranging between 3fV4e and XVf?
S67c. Ical receipts were 96 cars.
Provisions were active and strong, the
smaller receipts of hogs and an early ad
vance of from 10c to l.rc In the prices at the
yards being responsible for the opening
strength. There was a good demand from
packers and shorts also covered freely,
which, with moderate offerings, aided the
advance. The close was strong, with May
pork 12V,c higher at 117.36; May lard was
unchanged at $9.65 and ribs were up 7Vii10c
at 19.8214.
Estimated receipts for omorrow: Wheat,
t cars; com, 280 cars; oats, 110 cars; hogs,
26.000 head.

LONDON. Feb. 26 The demsnd for

reacted when It waa announced that the

helped a little by Inspired buying. Bullion

NEW YOHK 9T41CKS AD DOKD8,
Market t'lnaea Lower, with Active
elllna Movement la Farce.
NEW YORK, F-b. 26.-After a day of In
difference anil nearlect, today a stork mar
ket clcred with an active selling movement
In force end with the majority of active
stocks from 1 to 2 points below last night.
The only manifest new developments to
cause this sudden weakness wss the ad
journment of the St, Paul directors with
out taking; action on the Issue of new
stocks. As such action had not been ex
pected and as there had been no extensive
speculation bared on the stock Issue, the
late weakness is more plausibly explained
as due to a speculative weariness with tho
perrlstent hanging back of prlcts. The
sense of disappointment was In evidence
at the opening, when it was seen that the
authorised reports of the practical consoli
dation of Rock Island and St. Louis & Ban
Francisco were without stimulating effect
on speculation. St. Louis & San Francisco,
In fact, relapsed sharply to 2 below last
night on comparatively light offerings and
Rock Island after an advance became
heavy and ruled below last night for the
rest of the day. This reception accorded
to the most far-reaching project of railroad
consolidation since the Louisville deal
seemed to be accepted as a conclusive
demonstration that nothing was to be hoped
lor in the way of active speculation for the
prerent. The relief from the pressure of
selling In Metropolitan Street Railway alle
viated for a time the depressing effect of
this conviction. There was a demonstration
also In Wubash preferred, which carried
that stock up a point In face of rumors of
the Issue of an order for a strike and of
the unfavorable showing of January net
earnings. Some of the iron and copper
stocks mnde some show of resistance to
the prevailing depression, owing to favora
ble trade reports, but the whole market
gave way at the last and sold down rapidly
until the weak closing. The uneasiness
over the rapid depletion of New York bank
ing reserves was slightly relieved by to
day's news of the receipt of $8,000,000 In gold
from Ban Francisco. But the market had
to face as an offset the news of the ship
ment of $75,000 in gold to Buenos Ayres. in
the International exchange markets there
was a relaxation of pressure all around,
the private discount Tate both at London
and Paris going quickly lower and giving
ground for the supposition that tho reduc
tion In the Bank of England's rate Is de
ferred for only a week. But it is feared
that further shipments will be made to
Argentine from here and that Chicago will
mane further demand for currency, opera
tors in the market also were inclined to be
discouraged about the prospect of action
at this session on the Aldrtch financial bill.
The stock market, which is the true index
of the money market, hardened further to
day and practically no business was done
at lets than for periods longer than threo
months. Opinion was inclined to settle
down into conviction that extremely con
servative banking must be the rule for tha
rest of the year, and until eome new fac
tor develope to relieve the aituatlon. One
of the featurea of today's market was the
wide concessions necessiiry to find a market
for small offerings of some of the expensive
high grade goods. Chicago & N-irthwestern
was a notable example, the price declining
8 points on quite feverish .fluctuations. The
subscription rights to the new stock sold
at 13 compared with 15 on the first day
they were dealt In last week. Wabash de
benture B. bonds were made a sharp re
covery and gave an Irregular tone to the
bond market, which was otherwise rather
easy. Total sale, par value, $1,875,000.

HOGS There was not quite as Heavy
a run of hogs here today as yesterday and
as advices from other points were favor
able to the selling Interests the xharket
opened generally a dime higher. It was to
be noticed, however, that the greatest ad
vance was on the good weight hogs. Pack
ers looked at weight rather than at quality
and the light stuff waa neglected even If
the quality was good. The heavy hogs
sold largely from 86.96 to 37.00, and as high
as 87.05 was paid for prime heavies. The
medlam WPla-hts sold from 36.90 to 86.95.
while the light stuff changed hands tjlowly
at pricea ranging downward from 36.90.
There waa a little flurry In about the
middle of the market when some of the
hogs sold 1 Ofj 15c higher, but the dose waa
about like the opening and everything was
disposed of In good season. Representative

SHEEP There was a fairly liberal sup
ply on sale this morning and as other
markets were quoted lower there was a
little easier feeling at this point. The mar
ket could be quoted weak to a dime lower
than yesterday, or 104j.20c lower than the
close of last week. Packers all seemed to
be anxious1 for supplies, but they wanted
to fill their orders at a lower figure. There
were no good lambs on sale, but some
Mexican yearlings sold at 35.80 and some
wethers sold for 85.25. Ewes brought 34.60.
Trading was not quite as brisk as on some
previous days, but still practically every
thing was disposed of In good era son.
There werr a good many feeder buyers on
hand this morning and It was noticed that
a good many of the half-fat kinds that
have been belling to packers went to feeder
buyers today. That, of course, helped out
the market on the short-fed stuff and pre
vented a more serious break In prices.

and strong under excited covering by short
ana rresn purcnases for the account of ths
local bull clique. This buying carried
prices to a level of 10525 Joints above the
closing of laet night, the first four months
on me speculative use an crossing to tne
10c mark. At the highest level February
and March sold at 10.10c. 10.06c bid for
April, and May reached 10.09c. This level
proved somewhat attractive as a basis for
profit-taking by the room contingent, whp

vorpool was naturally . 'alttflbuted to
manipulation from this side, but the con
tinued small movement waa, .alao a potent
influence. Receipts for the day "were- 17,
477 bales, this being a trifle below early
estimates, against actual receipts last year
of 24,3.")0 bales. The estimates for tomorrow
also are Hunt and while this Is attributed
more to the condition of the roads and un
favorable weather thnn to approaching ex
haustion they nevertheless exert some ef
fect on sentiment. There was some buy
ing orders from European sources. The
spot market of the south was generally '
firm at unchanged prices to an aovance of '
-16c, while the New York market wna
marked up 20 points to 10.25c for middling.
