CHICAGO. March 11. Statistics were de
cidedly favorable to the bulls In the wht
pit today and prices ruled strong;. May
closing 1-amc higher. May corn was up
c and ohis were c higher. Provisions
were easier and the close on the May pro
ducts was unchanged to 7c lower.
There was a marked Improvement in
trading In wheat and prices had an upward
tendency. The opening was easier on the
bearish government report. showing a
Urge reserve In the farmer's hands and
on easier cables and May was a shade
to H4tc lower, at 74c to 4ic. Es
timates of only l.0 bushels shipment
from Argentine for the week, a better
cash and export demand and a decrease of
8.400,000 bushels In the world s vlalhle , t
reported by Bradstreete. against 1,025,000
bushels a year ago, all combined to create
a bullish sentiment and there was ac
tive rommtssto.i demand the entire day.
Realising sales caused temporary de
clines, but the demand was too treat for
the market to withstand, and prices grad
ually advanced. I-ate In the day on addi
tional buylni,, May sold up to 7B- 1 he
close was at 75HC a net aln i f Iffl'te.
Primary receipts were small at 360, ono
busimls against &04.on bushels a year ago.
Minneapolis and Duluth reported receipts
of 211 cars which with local receipts of
twenty cers, none of contract, made total
receipts for the three points pf 231 ear",
against 820 cars last week, and 301 a year
'Trading In corn was of a somewhat
desultory nature with the dullness quite
pronounced at times, but prices In
fluenced largely by te action of wheat
and the undertone was strong. The
weather was still unfavorable and cables
were steady. There was little corn for
Tale at the outset and when shorts tried
to cover they were forced to bid up
sharply, especially for May. An easier
feeling develop later on less general
demand, hut the late strength '"wheat
caused another advance and the 'Close was
firm with May ,c higher at t.W&W af
ter selling between 47 and 47c Local re
celpfs were 27(1 cars, with one of contract
8 oat's were dull and featureless but the
strength In other grains caused a firm
feeHng. but the unfavorable weather also
imparted some strength to the situation.
There wns a good commission house de
mand at the start, but later the mat ket be
came oiitte listless. The close was about
,temnyq with May c higher at MWfWtJ,
after ranging between 34'4 and 81c. Local
early I. sympathy
with the strong hog market- but -tered
liquidation and a weak close at the
vards caused a reaction and the closo was
-steady. A feature of the trad ng was a
lood demand for Jard from hlfJj;
May pork closed 7Hc lower at $1H32. May
UtS was unchanged at 110.22 and ribs also
were unchanged at $9.97V- ..,

SKW YORK T()CKS A BODS.
Flnrrled Market Closes with at Least
Temporary I pvtard Tendency.
NEW YORK. March 11. The constant
fluctuations In today's stock market re
flected an unsettled and uncertain state
of mind on the part of the professional
trading element and I' required the utmost
agl.lty by that part of the professionals
known as scalpers to follow price changes.
The average level, however, was gradually
lifted and the market closed with one of
the upward flurries In progrees and at
about the top level of the day. There was
a sensible relaxation of the pressure of
forced liquidation, which the recent calling
of loans by the banks has caused and soma
recovery due to the covering of short con
tracts Jy .bears was thereiore normal.
Loans on call were made during the most
active part of the day's money market at
6 per cent, end 6 per cent was the msx
mum. For time money lenders were dis
posed to hold firmly for' a 6 per cent rale,
Lut the borrowers showed less urgency to
secure funds, especially for the longer
periods, and contented themselves with
loans for three to four months where no
concession was allowed for six months'
period. There was nothing to show the
course of this relief to the money situa
tion, unless it might be the result if liqui
dation in the stock market. The higher in
terest rates resulted In some lending
for the account of interior Institutions,
which are also reported to b calling some
loans at heme for the purpose of making
these loans in Wall street. Sterllif ex
change was considerably firmer today and
there was quite a falling off In the of
ferings of loan bills. The advance in money
rates In London and the Jump of sterling
at Paris of 1 centime showed the ob
stacles arising to the extensive borrowing
abroad for account of New York, which
has been In progress. The sub-treasury
also continues Its kiroad uncn the New
York money supply, the loss to that In
stitution yesterday amounting to $673. Olio.
This brings the absorption since Friday
up to the close cf business yesterday to
$3,147,000. Since the first of 'February this
government Institution has withdrawn from
the New York money market something
like $20,000,000. This state of affairs in a
period of stringency gave special signifi
cance to the visit in Wall street today cf
the secretary of the treasury. The con
viction was general, notwithstanding the
official disclaimers, that some measures
of relief for the local money situation
were In contemplation. This was really
the strong underlying Influence on the
Improved speculative sentiment, though
active play was still made on the con
stantly changing rumors regarding the
contest between the Harrlman and Keens
Interests in Southern Pacific. A turn
against the shorts In Metropolitan Street
railway was also a factor. Official denials
of published charges against the financial
accounting of the company was the basis
of the r trong upward movement in that
stock. The advance In the price of copper
gave an additional Impetus to Amalga
mated. The conviction that treasury
measures would relieve the money market
seemed to be especially strong In lforeign
money centers and Induced buying on the
New York exchange of stocks to the ex
tent of upwards of 60.000 shares. This wns
an Important inflflence In the early firm
ness. Nothing was learned up to the time
of the close of the market of the details
of any measures to be adopted by the treas
ury department. ...
Bonds were Irregular In ympathy with
stocks. Total sales, par value. $2,080,000.
United States 3 s coupon advanced per
cent on the last call.

Cotton Market.
NEW YORK. March 11. COTTON Mar
ket opened steady at a decline of I polntn
to an advance of 3 points and following the
call displayed considerable hesitation and
was a shade easier for a brief interval be
cause of disappointing cables and the out
look for heavier receipts for the day; then
turned verv strong on continued flood re
ports, bullish accounts from New Orleans
anil an Improvement In the Kngllsh market
with shorts leading the buying, particularly
of March. The bull leaders also actively
supported the market and the advance,
slow at first, became more rapid as stop
orders fvere reached and commission
houses became more Insistent purchasers.
The Liverpool market, which at the time
of the New York opening was about 667
points higher, closed at an adva"ce of 1
fil24; points, and private cables from there
indicated a very firm condition, with de
mand active and excited. The New Or
leans market also showed leading strength
on the early advance, the spot markets of
the south reported a hard finishing ten
dency and a'l sorts of rumors were circu
lated. The advance thus encouraged prices
up to lo.ixie for March and 10.02c for May,
or to within about 21 and 15 points of the
highest of the season on these two options
respectively, with the general list at that
time showing a gain from the opening of
Kill points 0.1 the nearby positions. But
this level proved attractive to those having
profits to take and In the early afternoon
ling cotton began to come up In the mar
ket In volume. It was rumored that tha
bull clique were liquidating and Wall street
interests who had recently elrcultled bull
ihh views of the situation sold more or less
openly. Port receipt, for the day fooled
up 23.478 bales, against 19.114 bales last year.
I'ndtr this pressure prices were aggres
sively forced downward to th close, which
was weak at the lowest of the session and
about U'n-li points below the best of the
day, while a not of 44j6Vi points as com
pared with last rlKht's close. Tote I sales

CATTLE Receipts or cattle were more
moderate this morning, and as the demand
on the part of local pucxer was talrly
liberal the market ruled active and '.Usher
on all kinds. Trading was brisk from start
to tinlsh,. so that an early clearance was
made.
About the usual proportion of the receipts
consisted of beef steers, but the quality was
rather on the commonlsh order. In fact,
there were no strictly good cattle on sale,
so that the market on paper does not look
very high. Taking quality Into considera
tion, however. It la safe to quote the mar
ket active and about a dime higher than
yesterday. In otner worus all of yester
day's decline has been regained.
The cow market was alao active and gen
erally a dime higher than yesterday. All
kinds seemed to be wanted, so that the
runners and cutters, as well as the good
cows, sold to considerable better advantage
than they did yesterday. There was not 11
very large supply of tow stuff on sale, so
that everything was (.is posed of In short
order. Light weight hellers of good qual
ity in particular sold well.
Bulls sold at strong to a dime higher
prices, than were paid yesterday, but veal
calves are still selling In the (mm? notches
they have been lor several weeks pajt.
The demand for Blockers and feeders was
active again this morning and good strong
prices wire paid for anything at all desir
able. A good many warmed-up cornfetls
sum rof teeners mis morning tor more man
pUkcrs would give, in spite of the fact
that the fat cattle market was quoted a
dime higher than yesterday. Commun cattle
were not in as brisk demand as the better
frades, but at the same time they sold for
ully as much aj was paid ycsierduy. Rep
resentative saes:

HOGS There was a moderate run of
hogs here this morning and the market
opened strong to 5c higher on the good
weight hogs. The light stuff, however, was
neglected and left until the last. Buying
was not very brink, however, and in fact
there was only one buver that took hold
w-lth much llle. By the time a third of
the hogs had changed hands the market
weakened and packers were then only bid
ding about steady prices with vesterday.
Sellers all thought they ougnt to g.t mora
money, so that for a time very llttH busi
ness was transacted. The bulk of the good
weight hogs sold early from $7.30 to $7.8.1.
with prime heavies selling from $7.3. to
$i.4o. The medium weights sold from $7.2i
to $7.30 and the lighter loads from $7.25
down. Representative sales:
