WEARE ORAIK COMPANY. Omaha Branch 110-111 Board of Trade Dnlldlagr. CHICAGO. May 13. WHEAT The market haa been narrow and the trade unimportant. The crowd has been disposed to the selling side, but de clines have been small. Outside markets have acted in sympathy with ours, except that the St. Louis May has been strong.

HEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS. Lena- Stocks Spill Over aad Boost Prices to Some Extent. NEW YORK, May 13. The selling which caused this morning's decline In stocks had the appearance of a apilling-out of long stock. There was no new development today to induce this selling, which was f robably due to a carried over Influence rom yesterday's events. Authoritative de nials of yesterday's report of a deep cut In the price of steel billets at Pittsburg by a leading interest did not put an Im mediate stop to the selling of the United States Steel stocks and those of the Inde pendent companies. Discussion of the Iron trade outlook was a leading feature of the day's speculative situation. The profes sional stock operators are not notable for deep Information on technical topics, but they paid much attention to obtruse dis cussions in the Iron trade, which were put out In some esses with the purpose of re assuring sentiment. These discussions mostly took the form of deprecation of sny talk of discouragement because of the current declining tendency In the price of pig Iron, alleging that the highest level recently prevailing was really artificial and for special deliveries or other reasons. The course of prices of stocks Indicates that speculative sentiment was not entirely re assured by the tone of these trade reports In face of the concrete facts of a stag nant demand for pig Iron. The threatened labor trouble on the Great Northern rail road system, and the fear that a contest once Inaugurated might spread In the rail road world, was a depressing factor In the whole market. The early weakness of the trunk lines showed that the Influence of yesterday's reduction In grain rates from Chicago to New York was still an Influ ence. Baltimore A .Ohio did not share in the heaviness of the group, and In the mar ket's later rally It was marked up about a point above last night. . - The turbulent speculation In the cotton market and the Illinois State Agricultural bureau's unfavorable crop report contin ued to exercise some depressing Influence. More attention was paid also to tha no table delay In the planting of the corn crop. The prospect of additional gold ex ports overhung the market and the per ception that the day would pass without engagements being made for shipment was a material factor In rallying the market late in the day. The conditions In the International exchanges were apparently the same today as when the engagement was made on Monday for export. But there was a material .relaxation today in the London money market, due to the progress of the allotment of the Trans vaal loan, which releases large sums to the market which were tied by the $ per cent required in- making application for the loan. If this shall put an end to the outward movement of gold from New York tnr tk nresent. tha result may be of Im portance In the financial situation. The recovery In the market was effected on a much smaller volume of dealing than was the decline, but It was Impeded by the selling of Rock Island, which was per sistent in face of the late firmness of the general market. The close was heavy and almost lifeless. . The bond market sgnln showed great variety with ft movement In some Issues which have been dormant for a long time The prlca changes, however, were still Irregular. Total sales, par value, $2,445,000. United States bonds were all unchanged on the last call. The following are the quotations on tns v.w -York Stork exchange: St. Lonls Orala aad Provisions. ST.

COTTON Opened firm at an advance of 4 to 7 points and ruled more active and excited than during any previous session this season. The opening advance was the immediate re sult of sensationally strong Liverpool ca bles, which reported futures about 10f&13 points higher than expected, while cotton was in good demand, with sales of 18,000 bales at 6d. This, coming at a time when many In the trade had been anticipating a declining rather than an advancing ten dency, proved utterly demoralising and shorts covered from every direction. At the higher levels of the morning, however, the liquidations by longs was enormous and proved sufficient to momentarily check the advancing tendency. Then there was an other mad rush of buying orders, and while the excitement at the opening had been Intense, It was now surpassed and trading was the most active every witnessed on the floor of the New York exchange. The bull clique, which had Sold so freely during the early hours, turned Insistent buyers of July and August, while houses with Euro pean connections and New Orleans Inter ests were also urgent buyers. Private ca bles attributed the . advance at Liverpool to demand in the absence of sellers and to the demand for spot cotton, leading to predictions that the tactics employed so successfully in bulling the New Orleans mahtet were now to be used by the Liver pool hulls, who, it was thought, were en deavoi'ng to get control of the spot supply available In that market. Some disappoint-, ment was felt at the early response of tha New Orleans market to the Liverpool ad vance, but later the market exhibited lead-' lng strength. The spot markets throughout the south were generslly firm and un changed to c higher, but no sales were reported from most of the centers. The weather map was favorable and the move ment ran over last year's, but these factors attrscted little attention at any time during the day. Toward the close some options eased off under realising, but the market was finally firm and very excited at a nei gain of 10?i40 points. Total sales of fu tures estimstea at l.uuu.uwi imieo. ST.

All points were quoted lower and prices here took a tumble In sympathy with the de cline elsewhere. Beef steer buyers did not take hold with a great deal of life and they started in bidding fully a dime lower. Sellers at tempted to prevent a break In prices, so that trading was slow and it was late be fore the bulk of the offering was dis posed of. The most of the cattle sold right around 10c lower than yesterday. Some of the cattle that Just suited buyers did not suffer quite that much, but on the other band some sales of the commoner grades looked worse than 10c lower. There was not very heavy supply of cows in the yards this morning, as the big bulk consisted of steers. Buyers all seemed to be In need of the stuff and as a result prices did not change to any extent. The better grades In particular were easy to dispose of at fully ateady prices and even the medium and common kinds sold In Just . . . . , j 1 . . . t aqful ins same iivivuca uioj uiu jcnici lfiiia veal calves and stags all com manded steady prices, where the quality was at all desirable. ' , , , There were only a few stockers and feed ers on hand, but aa the demand from the country so far this week has been very light, probably owing to a large extent to the heavy rains which have kept buyers at home, the market waa slow with the tendency of prices downward.
