CHICAOO. April 29 Dullness character
ised trading on the board today and af.er
n unsettled furling parly, which upcim
steady. May wheel closed MiVac lowr;r and
July a ahaue higher. Both July, corn a..d
oaU closed higher, while provision.
were from lc to 22Vc higher.
Whrat was quiet throughout the entire
session and In general the market Inclined
to weakness. 'I he evening waa steady to
firm on higher cables and uniavornhle
weather, wltn May unchanged to c higher
at '7V077i: and J"'y Higher at '''
I'ron advice were moderately blll.l-dl and
operated to aend prices up to Ji1 : for Jay
and 78V,ft7M4c lor July. An lmpre.lon th.U
Armour wan selling on the auvance, how
ever, caused tree liquidation. May rel I ig
off to i6tI( with July down to Tlc. '1 herj
waa a scattering demand at these figure
and with light offerings prices rall.e.i n
trifle and held ateady until the close, which
showed a loxs of c lor May at itiV
C'c. July being up a shade at 71'ii il-v.
Clearances of wheat and flour were equal
to iHl.ld'O lu?hcls. Trlmary recelp.a wtre
317.SKI bushels, against 220.400 a year ago.
Minneapolis and Dtiluth reported 1"1 cars,
which with local receipts of 61 cars, 4 of
contract grade, made total receipts for th
three points of l&i cars, against 11a lat
week and 819 iHst year.
There whs sufficient demand to hold corn
steady. The local sentiment was bearish
on reports of freer offerings from Illinois
and Indications of Increased movement In
the near future, and while the movement
was easy at times there was always surTt
clent buying to cause reactions. There was
moderate buying of July by local traders,
but the volume of business waa not large.
May closed mc higher at 44Vc. after ran
ging between. 4''fcc and 44V,c. July clored At
447j 4c. I, oca I receipts were 69 card, with
1 car of contract grade.
The demand for July nnd September oats
exceeded the offerings, which tact, together
with bullish crop reports, tended to Impart
strength to the market. May ciosea t
lower at 33'c, after ranging between 81Vc
and "l7c. and July closed at ulc. Local
receipts were 114 cars.
There was considerable strength In pro
visions notwithstanding the heavy rece ptj
of hogs and lower prices at tne yard.
Trading was fairly active, with good de
mand from brokers and commission houses
at which the selling was scattered, some of
the small packers taking part In It. July

CHICAGO April 29. WHEAT-There wna
a weak market early and the crowd seemed
Inclined to sell, but on crop damage talk
from St. Louis there was general covering
and the market recovered its early loss.
Foreign markets were all some lower. New
York reports 25 loads taken for export.
Clearance were 269,000 bu. St. Louis re
ported 60.000 bu. of No. 2 red sold from
there. There were 100,000 bu. 'of .contract
wheat out of private houses here. There
will be large shipments of No. 1 northern
In the next forty-eight hour. Primary
receipt were 117,000 bu., against 20,000 last
year. Primary shipment were 246,000 bu.,
against 3.13,000 last year. Northwest re
ceipts were 101 cars, against 115 last year.
I enl receipts, 61 cars, with four contract.
Estimates for tomorrow. 29 cars. There
are predictions for anow as far south as
Kansas for tonight. Minneapolis wheat
stocks for four day show a decrease of
3,000,000 bu. The buying side seem to be
the popular one for September.
CORN The market has been small and
featureless. The cold, wet weather and
the predictions of more had most to do
with the buying. There waa some Inuulry
for corn from the east. Country offering
were smaller. Jcai receipts. fc cars, with
ne contract. Estimates for tomorrow. 110

last year. Primary shipments, 641,000 bu.

OATS The market ha kent ateadv.
helped by the cold weather west, the pre
diction tor snow and the report by the
weeKiy crop ounetin tnat oat seeding had
been much delayed; but thero was no
nipping demand and the cash market was
Vic lower, and between these conflicting
Influences the market changes were small.
July and September gained some on the
May option. Local receipt were 114 cars
with 3 contract. Estimates for tomorrow
130 ears. Clearance. 16.000 bu.
PROVISIONS Opened, at about vester-
day' closing and sold up on buying by

SEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS.
Market Still Restricted, 1 bnt Cas
tomary 4teTerse Doe Not Come.
NEW YORK. April 29. The stock mar-
wju. ;Yl r. Ji
fesslonal channel today, but It got through
the day without the recent customary re
versal of the course of prices. For several
day with the diminishing volume of bus!
nesa the tendency of the market haa been
to retrace in the afternoon the course
taken In the morning. Today the course
was upwards throughout and professional
traders seemed to feel no solicitude about
leaving their contract open over night.
The market closed at practically tne nign
est level and with a notably firm tendency.
The Improved tone was largely due to the
sympathetic effect on the general list of
. very persistent absorption or tne fc,ne
tocks. which left the common IVt. the first
preferred 2T and the second preferred 3H
higher than last night.
The report or earnings or Lnign vauey
for March showed a surplus after fixed
charge of $624,500, compared with a deficit
for March of last year or .rt4,li6. supple
menting the favorable showing reported by
the Erie for March, the Lehigh report had
stimulating effect "upon the coaler gen
erally.
The buying or tne Erie, nowever. was
of a special character and gave rise to
various rumor, one point of which pointed
o an early Increase In dividend distribu
tions.
The general market was Inclined to hang
back and moved In a rather Irregular
manner until the persistent strength of the
Erie decided tne general upward move
ment. Some of the New York public utili
ties were Inclined to react after yester-
ay a short covering movement on thj de
clared validity of the franchise tax.
Amalgamated Copper rose early in re
sponse to a sharp rebound In the price of
I,ondon copper, but lost most of the gain
when the I-ondon copper market ran off.
The reaction In the sliver market had
some early effect on Mexican railroad
tocks. but they ranted in company wltn
the rest of the market. The shipment to
day of loOO.OOO to South America, following
yesterday a similar shipment to pans, kept
alive some conjecture as to a continued
outward movement of gold. The sustained
firmness of the lxindon money market and
the doubt aa to the hoped for reduction
tomorrow of the Rank of England discount
rate caused some reflected depression early,
but London afterward turned buyer of
tocka here and helped in the rally.
With the announcement of the franchise
ax the decision of the professional traders
were Inclined to take the view that all of
the bad news Immediately expected wa
now known and the market reasonably se
cure against depressing factors.
Money continues to work easier. There
Is little demand for time loans for the
shorter period, owing to the Inclination to
depend upon the call loan market. For
period carrying over tne crop moving
season the demand is greater. But sup-
Dlies offering even for the longer periods
how an Increasing tendency.
The Increasing supplies of money affect
the bond market more distinctly than
stork. A wide variety of Issues wa dealt
In today, although price movement still
continues somewhat irregular. Total sales
par value, 32.132.(100. United State 4a ad
vanced on the last call.
