The wheat market was Influenced largely by the action of corn and followed the price of that cereal throughout the day. Trading wag dull and conlined chiefly to local trader. '1 he opening was easier on lower cabUs and May waa off yc to Hic at o uc. letter the market advanced In sympathy with the strength In corn and along with the better prices at New York, May selling up to l'ic, but the extreme Inactivity In the pit and the large Argentine shipment, over 2.ouo,o0 bu. for the week, had a depressing effect, and when the break In corn occurred, with noth ing to support It. the market reacted and ruled eaay the remainder of the session. Way closing Wac lower at TTVi&Tic, after selling down to TTmc The clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 375.0UO bu. Primary receipts were 430.000 bu., against 406,000 a year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth reported receipts of 2 cars, which, with local receipts of 28 cars, two of contract grade, made total receipts for the three points of 3-'0 cars, against 245 last week and 250 a year ago. Corn was fairly active and the market displayed considerable strength early on the unfavorable weather conditions, rnlns being predicted over the entire corn belt, but havy selling by local traders caused a slump In pi ices and a weak feeling pre vailed the last hour of the sesHlon. Open ing prices were eoaler on lower cables May being a shade to ViUVtC lower at 47H!ff47Vic, but active buying by yesterday's late sell ers caused an advance to 4T:ic, but with the demand from that source satisfied tho market weakened and May closed Wc lower at 47c. lxcal receipts were 373 cars, none of contract grade. Oats were quiet and featureless and the market was inclined to follow tht action of corn. The close was easy, with May o lower at 36S,ffV)c after selling between 35Vc and XfaioJiC. Receipts were small at 214 cars. There was a fair trade In provisions and a stronger feeling prevailed, there being an active demand from shorts, while brok ers also were fair buyers. The close was strong, with May pork lfo. higher at 118.80, May lard lc higher at 13.97ft and ribs up 2's'6c at l'J.87',4.

There was some strength early, In sympathy with the New York market and the corn rally here. There whs no Important news. The weather map shows unsettled weather, but no low tem peratures anywhere In the wheat belt, and none predicted. l"rimary receipts were 4.U.O1.0 bu., ag Ur.st 46.o0 last year. Primary shipments were 44.U0O bu., against 161, ( hist year. Northwest receipts were 205 cars, against 213 a year ago- Clearances, 375,000 bu. There was no shipping demand here Lnd New York reports only live loads taken for export. Local receipts were 25 cars, with one contract. Estimates for Thursday. 20 cars. It is predicted Argentine shipments Friday will be about 2,200,ooo bu., compared with l.Ohfc.OiO lost year, but In 1900 they were 3,S"6,00O bu. Minneapolis re ported largo flour sales and some of them made to Australia. CORN There has been continued selling of May and buying of July by the English crowd and this has counted somewhat against corn prices. There has been no evidence of support for the May. Cash market haa been very weak, carlots ft'olc lower. The shipping demand is poor. Local receipts were 378 cars, with none contraot. Estimates for tomorrow, 240 cars. Primary receipts were 774.000 bu., against 3U,(nn last year. Primary shipments were 439.00" bu , against 298,000 a year ago. Clearances were boti.ooo bu. and for three days have ex ceeded 2,0oO,Ws bu., although there has been no new demand during this time. New York reports three loads taken for expert. OATS The market has been quiet, within a fractional range, and has been Influenced by corn, as It was yesterday. The cash market Is Arm and shippers report a better Interior demand, while receivers say offer ings are light. Local receipts were 214 cars, with 12 contract. Estimates for tomorrow, 120 cars. Clearances, 20,"00 bu. PROVISIONS The market opened rather steady. There was a raid on May pork, but Cudahy came to the support of the mar ket, causing the reaction. The selling In general has been mostly by local scalpers. Hately has sold on all advances. Foreign cables were 6d higher all around, flio weakness In grain had Its effect, while at times the market looked weak, prices were well maintained, especially lnrd. 'I here were 27.000 hogs.

March 4. The relief to the banking position afforded by yesterday s sharp liquidation In the stock market was manifest In the quieter tone of the trading today. The banks were apparently satis fled with the recuperation effected yester day and desisted from further calling of loans. Tbe bears started prices during the morning, but they found they were dis lodging little stock by offering- down prices and they covered their short con tracts. The result was to bring prices back to about last night's close. At that Plnt proceedings came almost to a standstill. The relaxation of the selling pressure en couraged a resumption of operations, by the bull pool In Manhattan, which lifted that stock 2 over last night, and support was given Amalgamated Copper. The strength In other local tractions and In Missouri Pacific seemed to be largely due to sympathy with the movement In Man hattan. A rise of 4 points In General Elec trto and a recovery of 4ft In Northwestern from yesterday's wide decline had a reas suring effect on sentiment. On the other hand, there were large recessions on small offerings on the generally active stocks. The stock market steadied with the ces sation of calling loans by banks, proved that holders of stock will not sell at the present level unless compelled to do s by contraction of credit resources. Buyers are restrained bv the same restriction of credits. The action taken by the United States Steel directors on the bond Issue and stock conversion plan and the elabo rate outlay projected for Improvements had the same chilling - reception as has been accorded similar projects by the rail roads, which promised heavy inroads upon the vanishing surplus supply of capital. The steel stocks made little movement, but the bonds when Issued were offered freely on the curb. Syndicate support was offered for a while at 95. but the bonds were offered down to 92. Tne sellers argued that the privilege of conversion for 40 per cent of the preferred stock In the bonds warranted an assumption of a parity of market value for the two issues. The prospect of action on the Cuban treaty at the extra session of the senate, as well as an advance in the price of refined sugar, helned susar. The decrease of 20 per cent In-January net earnings reported by Union Pacific seemed to be ignored, ins sun treasury statement showed $478,000 mot taken from the money market and New York exchange at Chicago fell back from 20 cents to 35 cents discount. Call money rose to 4ft per cent late In the day and rates for call loans were firmly held, but additional offerings of loan bills In the exchange market caused a decline In quotations there. The market , closed rather Irregular. Bonds were dull and Irregular. Total saleo, par value, $1,760,000. United States boids were an uncnangea on tne last can.

The market closed highly excited at from 11 to 34 points below last night's closing. March ana May options opened at declines of 10 points, selling at 10.17 and 9.99c respectively, as against 10.17c and 10.19c yesterday at the close and the high record price of i0.25c and 10.17c earlier yesterday. The bull leador bought valiantly and rallied the market at 10.15c for March and t0.04c for May. He took more than 20,000 bales, but a flood of offerings In 1,000 and 6,000-bale lots poured in on htm.

The climax came at tne end ot tne noon nour, wnen an avalanche of selling orders from all direc tions appeared. The May option made a running break to 9.88c, a level of 21 polnU or more than a dollar a bale from last night's closing, and -the March oMlon droDDed with even ereater violence from 10.17c to 9.96c. The July option fell from 9.81c to S.Wc. As prices crumbled away many stop-ioss orders neia Dy oroxers on customers' accounts were reached and their execution and the bear raid made the low prices.

Packers all seemed to be anxious for anything at all desirable and the prices paid were tally as good as those In force yesterday. A liberal proportion or the offerings today consisted of cornfed steers. The Quality was fairly good and a bunch of prime heavy cattle sold at $5.00. The demand on the part of local packers was liberal for good cattle and the prices paid were fully steady and in some cases sales were made that looked a shade better. Tne common to fair cattle did not show much of any change from yesterday, but still every thing sold without much trouble at very satisfactory prices. The cow market waa active and steady on all desirable grades. Strictly choice cat tle in some cases were a little stronger, but the canners and cutters were not In any too good demand and were no more than steady. A good clearance was made, though, at a reasonably early hoar. Bulls, veal calves and stags all sold freely at steady prices. There was a very light run of stockers and feeders In the yards this morning and as the demand from the country has been In good shape so far this week speculators were anxious for supplies. The few that arrived sold freely at steady to strong prices, but the strength was confined largely to the better grades. Represent' Uve sales: BEEF STEERS. No. A. Pr. Mo. At.
