CHICAGO. III., March 10 Dullness pre
ceded the (train pita today and an easier
tone aa manlfeated, May wheal cloning
fcifl4c lower. May corn wai down 4c anil
cam were off He. Provisions ruled about
teady and the May product! closed from
tc to lui2o higher. ,
The trading in wheat was exceedingly
dull, many operatora being dlsposeal to
wait for the government report of grain
1n farmer's hands, Expectations that this
report would be of a bearish character
caused selling throughout the. day. The
opening was firm on steady cables anJ
May was unchanged to 4e higher at a44c
to iS-, but the early tirmnesa was soon
loat there being little support of any Im
portance. Evlalences that the world s
wheat movement was on the in
crease,, as shown by the world s
snliimenta for the week of ,o"0.tno
bushels and an Increase of 960,000 bushels
In the amount on passage caused added
weaknera and May sold down to 74c. Buy
Ing by commission houses late in the day
caused a rally but the close was WuUc
lower at 74litakC. Clearance of wheat
and flour were equal to 2S5.UO0 bushels.
ITImary receipts were 111 4.000 busnels
against 4n.it busheis a year ago. Minne
apolis and Duluth reported receipts of 368
tars, which with local receipts of 31 car?,
none of contract grade; made total receipt;
for the three points of 3S9 car, against 7
cars last week, and 378 a year ago.
Strong cables and unfavorab.e weather
for the movement caused strength In corn
at the opening but the early advince was
not maintained, the same influence that
affected the wheat market being respoii
.im. n ,h ,i-iitw Estimates thai the
government report would show a farmer s
reserves of nearly a billion bushels resulted
In considerable selling by local traders,
outside of this feature the market was
dull. The close was easier, with May off
v Bt 4XMi4iHc after Belling between
47Vc and 47V(H77c. IacbI receipts were
larger at 494 cars, with three of contract
'"here waa a fair trade In oats and early
prUes were firm In sympathy with wheat
and com, but later the market reacted
under the Influence of the depression in
other gralna and the close was weak. May
closed 4c lower at 34V34V4c, after rang
ing between 84c and 3bc. Local recelpta
Provisions were firm though there was
not the bullish enthusiasm manifested In
the market that would naturally be 'x
pected In view of the small run of hogs
and from 10c to 15c advance In prices at
the yards. Commission houses were fair
buyers at the outset, but the big holders
were disposed to take protita and this
selling had a tendency to drag prices
down. The close was about steady, with
May pork 7',c higher, at $18.40 May lard
was up 10l24c at $10,224. and rlba were
6c higher, at $9,974- , ,,..,
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
to cars; corn, 276 cars; oats, 120 cars; hogs,
80,000 head. , , ,.

Market nelapaea Into Gloom When
Loosened Money Is Snapped 1 p.
NEW YORK, March 10 Wall atreet made
another sudden reversal of sentiment to
day and relapsed Into gloom. After yes
terday'a strong recovery there was a feel
ing of great relief and a disposition to take
ros:-ate views of the facilities at hand for
the money market, but It began to appear
again today that the sweeping up of the
new resources brought within reach of the
local market by the rise in interst rates
was going on at a rapid rate and could
not be extended. The very large reduction
in the outstanding short Interest effected
by yesterday s enormous buying to cover
short contracts also deprived the market
of a very Important sustaining force. Sen
timent accoraingly shifted to the bear side
again. The conditions were not materially
altered from those of yesterday, but ex
treme sensitiveness was apparent to all
suggestions of possible difficulties. The
shifting rumors regarding the alleged con
test between the speculative pool In South
ern Pacific and the Union Pacific holdings
of that stock were made the Instrument of
extensive operations. Last night rumors
that an agreement had been made between
the two parties were contradicted and vagus
intimations were thrown out of coming hos
tilities which would threaten demoraliza
tion to the stock market. The affair of
fers very little In the way of substantial
Information and dnea not reach beyond the
realms of speculation. Of more substantial
character was the resumption by the banks
of the calling of loans. The violent break
liere and there amongst some obacure
stocks suggested also a process of weed
ing out of undesirable collateral. The
slump in the American Ice stocks was ex
plained by the differences developed st tho
annual meeting. The break In the common
reached 4 and the preferred 10 with ral
lies of l4j and 34 respectively. This In
cident and the raiding down of Metropol
itan Street railway three points caused an
unfavorable Impression and led to the first
violent decline after the market had fallen
Into a dull and heavy condition. The mar
ket then became quite uniform throughout
the list, except that Southern Pacific and
Union Pacific continued very conspicuous
In the speculation. The free selling all day
by .the bears led to a substantial rally,
reaching between 1 and 2 points In tho
last hour for the active speculative lead
ers when they covered their shorts. The
exhaustion of the demand at the higher
level, however, prompted renewed selling.
St. Paul dropped abruptly to 166V the
market quickly crumbled to about the
lowest of the day and the closing was
very active and weak. New York Central
was also notable vulnerable to the at
tack made upon It. The call loan rate at
the opening was 8 per cent and some loans
were made above that rate, but the ruling
rate waa 6 per cent.
The- drop to below that rate after the
principal demand had been satisfied was
without special significance. The recovery
In foreign exchange and the rise in dis
counts at London were highly significant
and conveyed an Intimation of the effects
to fololw an undue report to foreign credit
facilities. Another evidence of the domi
nance of the money situation was the
sensitiveness of speculation to rumors re
garding the manner In which payments are
to be made to the Panama canal stock
holders. A formulated report of the In
tention of the secretary of the treasury
to draw on government deposits with banks
to the extent of $20,000,000 to $25,000,000 for
this payment aggravated the market s
weakness. The sub-treasury took from the
money market $1,500,000 yesterday and 1100.
000 was deposited at the sub-treasury for
transfer to New Orleans. Amalgamated
and American Smelting showed some
strength on the advance In copper and
lead, and Reading made a temporary ad
vance on a denial of rumors that the min
ers were to be put on short time.
Bonds weakened in sympathy with stocks.
Total sales, par value." $2,625,000.
The advance In . governmenta gave rise
to unconfirmed rumors of an Intention by
the secretary of the. treasury to buy trans
fe? btnds for the Sinking fund and thus
release funds to the, money market United

CATTLE There was a very heavy run
ot cattle here today, and aa a result pack
ers started In Irom the first to pound the
market. Sellers did not like the Idea of
taking off much, so that the morning was
well advanced before much trading was
done.
The beef steer market was slow and gen
erally a dime lower. The big bulk of the
receipts consisted of steers, so that buyers
had a good opportunity to pound the mar
ket. The quality - of the offerings was
fairly good but still choice cattle were
scarce. Sellers thought they ought to get
about steady prices, and In some cases
some ot the kinds that Just suited buyers
did not sell a great deal lower but the
big bulk of the offerings sold right around
a dime lower, and It was late before any
thing like a clearance was made.
Cows did not suffer as badly today as the
steers. As compared to the total receipts
the supply of cows was not very large, and
the market could be quoted weak to a dime
lower. The good heavy cows ajffered
fully as much as any kind:. Packers tiarted
In bidding fully lbc lower, but as r.ellers
held on for more money they finally had to
pay right clone to yesterday's pi ices tor a
good share of what they got.
Bulls of good cjualty sold without much
trouble at eteady- prices, and so also did
veal calvfa.
The demand for stockers and feeders
continued brisk, so that anything desirable
sold readily at steady prices. The common
stuff was, of course, neglected, the fcame
as has been the case tor some time past,
and prlcea were certainly no more than
ateudy. Representative sales:
