CHICAGO, Way II. There were no fea
ture of Interest In trading on the Board
of Trade today anl the markets In general
were eaay, July wheat closing o lower,
July corn off HJCHc, with oata unchanged.
Provisions were easier, the September prod
ucta closing from to lower to a shade
higher.
WHEAT Ruled rather quiet and the un
dertone waa easier. Opening; prices were
off a trifle on reports of rains In Manitoba
and on unfavorable cables, the action of
the French minister of agriculture In an
nouncing that the price of wheat did not
Justify a reduction In the Import duty on
that grain being an Important feature. July
opened a shade to Wac lower at 73SSf73c.
and, with considerable long wheat lor sale
and some selling for short account, the
market became weaker. July declining to
tt'ai3c. .Later In the day reports of dam
age came In from the southwest, end ns
these reports were accompanied by buying
orders from St. Iouis, a corresponding
change In sentiment was experienced, the
market becoming quite strong. Toward the
close, however, offerings were too liberal for
the demand and prices eased oft again, July
closing o lower at 73V73'!c. Clearances
of wheat and flour were equal to 373.300 bu.
Primary receipts were 33i,6t bu., against
40ti,0ii0 a year ago. The amount on ocean
passage Increased 3i,(Hp0 bu., while the
visible supply decreased 1,791, Ota) bu. Min
neapolis and Duluth reported receipts of
2"3 cars, which, with local receipts of 17
csiTt, one of contract grade, made total re
ceipts for the three points of 220 cars,
against 245 cars last week and 282 cars a
year ago.
CORN Experienced a good volume of
business during the session. Receiving
houses sold freely s gainst country accept
ances. The selling was due to more favor
able weather" and easier cables. The mar
ket held remarkably steady, however, with
a good commission demand for July, which
was the main supporting feature. The late
weakness In wheat had a depressing Influ
ence and the close was easier, with July
c lower at 44c, after selling between
44V4C and 4414c local receipts were 137
cars, with 8 of contract grade.
OATS Were relatively firm In spite of
the easier tone in other grains but trading
was not large and confined mostly to
local traders. The strength was due to
buying; hv one or two Influential hulls
whose offerings were somewhat limited.
The market lacked any features and prloes
showed little change. July closed un
changed at 33H'8334c, after selling between
83o and 334c. Iocal receipts were 79 cars.
PROVISIONS Liberal receipts of hogs
and lower prices at the yards caused weak
ness In provisions at the start. The market
received some support from packers at the
decline, and the tone In general became
firmer. September pork closed lower nt
lfl.67V; September lard was up 2V4c at
x.B7'i. while ribs were a shade higher at
S9.17V59.20. t
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,

WEAHB GHAI COMPANY.
Omaha Branch 110-111 Board of Trade
Building;.
CHICAGO, May 18. WH EAT There has
been a fair-sized trade in wheat, with
bearish tendencies predominating. The
range has not been a wide one and the
principal influence was the punitive an
nouncement by the French minister of ag
riculture that duties would not be reduced
for the present. Foreign crop advices show
some Improvement. World's shipments
were 10,8M,000 bu. The Russian contribu
tion, 8,128,0(0 bu. The weather niip shows
some Improvement. There were some more
complaints In the southwest, most of them
by way of St. Louis, but we have It from
one of the best operators in the trade
down there that there Is little foundation
in fact for any serious damage talk, and
still think well of sales of September wheat.
Clearances were 372,000 bu. New York re
ports 20 loads taken for export. luteal re
ceipts, 17 cars, with one of contract grade;
estimates for tomorrow, 45 cars.
CORN The market was weak early on
the large country offerings, some figuring
it as high as 1,260, 000 bu., and there was
free sellinir by most of the cash houses
against these acceptances. On the decline
there developed a commission house de
mand which rallied the market. The cash
market was about steady. Local receipts,
137 cars, with 8 of contract grade; estimates
for tomorrow, 310 cars; clearances, ln4.oil
bu .: New York reports 8 loads for export.
The visible supply decreased 9!i8,0O0 bu. The
Chicago stock, 1,448,000 bu., decreased 326,
000 bu.
OATS The market has been strong. In
fluenced by the continued lack of rain
throughout Illinois. Futures were tip ,c
and cash 4c hlsher. The light stocks and
small receipts were also a factor. LorM
receipts, 79 cars, with 8 of contract grade;
estimates for tomorrow. 2S0 cars; clear
ances. 12.CO0 bu. The visible supply de
creased 7JS.0O0 bu.: the local stocks, 450,000
bu.. Increased 72,000 bu.
PROVISIONS Although the hog market
wns 5ijn1c lower and receipts 41,000 head, or
6,000 over the estimate, provisions have been
r.trong-. with ribs and lard higher. Packers
bought lard and ribs. Hogs In the west
today, 66.900 head, against 56.100 last year.
Estimates for tomorrow. 18.000 head.

NEW YORK STOCKS AD BONDS.
Market Erratic, Rally Being; Followed
by Crumbling; Prices.
NEW YORK, May 18.-There was con
siderable liquidation on the stock market
today. The selling seemed lftMuced by a
crystalizatton of sentiment, which has
been approaching deflnito formation for
some time, but has been deferring action
In the hope of a recovery. There was no
development to cau!? tho decline, except
the engagement of 32. 325.000 of gold for ex
port to Europe. This had been quite defi
nitely extended and the amount was rather
less Uian some of tho forecast. There was
a alight hardening In the call loan rate In
response to the gold movement, but could
not be said that any liquidation was forced
by a withdrawal of credits.
The result of the consideration over Sun
day of the general finance outlook seemed
to be rather the placing of stop-loss orders
as a precautionary menstire below the mar
ket than definite orders to sell. The open
ing of the market was In fact Irregular
and a slight decline was followed by a
considerable rally. This rally persisted
after the first knowledge of the engage
ment of gold for export. But the report
that $'.'00,000 had been deposited at the sub
treasury for telegraphic transfer to New
Orleans, was followed almost immediately
by a crumbling of prices throughout the
list. The violent speculation In cotton Is
making demands on the money market,
which was taken in ill part by the stock
market.
It Is probnble that the demand in prices
was Immediately due to professional at
tacks by the bears, but the existence of
stop-loss orders below the market make
prices very vulnerable. The usual result
of a considerable decline la now seen In
the Increased disposition to sell merely be
cause prices have declined. Stocks which
have now got lower than In last month's
decline on account of the Northern Se
curities decision' are conspicuous sufferers
In the present selling. This Is seen In the
case of St. Paul, New York Central and
Southern Pacific especially. When prices
showed a lower level on a relapse after
one recovery. It Is the speculative theory
that effective support has been determined
on at that point. When the price goes
lower on the second decline it Is customary
for professional operators to sell it on the
theory that the final resting place for
the price Is indefinite. Quite a number of
stocks today broke through the previous
low level for the year and last month, and
this fact had a strong Influence on bearish
sentiment. The day s export of gold and
the continued firmness of foreign exchange
are a demonstration that the allotment
of the Transvaal loan in London Is not
to relieve the pressure for gold abroad, as
was hoped. The London market Itself
now taking account of the future periodical
tnr the navment of the
monthly installments on the subscriptions
to the ioan. The fact that a large portion
of the proceeds of the loan is payable to
continental holders of the South African
railroads, which are being purchased by
the colonies, makes a prospective pressure
upon London for remittance to continental
points. The outgo of gold from here , 1 In
payment of borrowings and Is an Insur
ance against future pressure.
With the large requirements ahead or
the domestic money market there is an im
esslness manifest whether the outgoing
gold will be readily availably for recall to
this market when It Is needed. Nearly nil
the. active stocks today fell between 1 and
2 points nnd St. Paul. New York Central.
mKuH Pacific Rock Island Reding
exceeded that. Amongst dormant tocks
there were even wider declines Amalga
mated: Copper was strong as the effect of
!b increase in the dividend rate on the
Calumet and Heels stocks. The market
closed esy and within a small fraction of
UnId'states Steel new sinking fund
bonds were dealt for in this time on he
exchange and rose more than a point oer

CATTLE There was an exceptionally
light run of cattle here today for a Mon
day, but at Chicago there was a big run
and prices at that point were quoted about
a dime lower. The demand though was
in good shape here so that prices showed
very little change In spite of the lower
prices quoted elsewhere. 1
The beef steer market could be quoted
Just about steady with the close of last
week. Buyers did not take hold any too
freely owing in part to the big run In Chi
cago and tne lower prices existing there,
and also to the fact that they are rather
looking for beavy receipts here tne rest of
the week. Anything desirable was not
dilltcult 10 dispose of at satisfactory prices,
but the commoner grades were rather
draggy. There were some outside buyers
on hand who bought quite fretly, and they
had a beneficial effect Uion the market. In
spite of the fact that buying was not very
spirited practically -everything was din
posed of oefore the middle of ih forenoon.
There was not enough change In the
ptices paid for cows to dj worihy of men
tion. The same was the-case with beet
steers, buyers did not take hold any too
freely, but still the cattle kept chancing
hands at steady prices and the '.l.?ht offer
ings soon brought the market to a close.

Just about the same notches they did lost
week.
There wore quite a few stockevs and
feeders In the yards this morning, but tho
demand was of quite liberal proportions so
the desirable grades changed hands freely
at steady to strong prices. Speculators
carried over very lew cattle trom l.nt week
and they were all looking for fresh supplies
this morning. Representatives sales:
