CHICAGO OIIAIX AKU PROVISIONS.
Featares ot the Tradlnar and Closlac
Prloes oa Board ( Trade.
CHICAGO, Feb. 13. Speculative trading In
the wheat pit here today, was a reflection
of the higher prices belng'pald for the cash
article in all outside grain markets. The
nirenath abroad waa alxo a bull factor. The
market closed firm with May wheat C(iSu
higher than Thursday's final figures. May
corn waa up VuV". while oals showed a
gain of lc. Provisions were easier, cloning
ixulOo lower.
The wheat pit was affected more per
haps by the strong cash situation reached
from all quartern than by any other fac
tor. The demand was principally ior the
July delivery, the congested condition of
the May option offering small Inducements
to the majority of traders. Wheat prices
at Uverpool and Parts were considerably
higher than yesterday and the fact that
these markets showed gains in the face of
increased shipments from Australia and
Argentine helped Instill confidence Into the
minds of traders here. May opened ib-So
to H4e higher at 98'a06c. while July
was up bo at asu.o. There was an
arlv advance to 88'kQ9o for July on an
active general demand, but the May option
held steady during the first hour. The lead
ing long took advantage ot the advance In
the price of July and sold out a considerable
line. Smaller traders followed the lead and.
In consequence, a drop to 80 occurred.
The downward trend of the Ally delivery
affected May, forcing the price down to
96c. St. Louie houaes covered a big line
ot July during the latter part or the day.
The market responded to the Improved de
mand and prices again reached the top
figures. Some of the advance was subae.
queraly lost on profit taking, but the close
was firm, with May 96c. July had a
net advance or 14ilc, closing at 88s8e
Clearances of wheat and flour were equal
to 239.8W) bushels. Primary receipts were
(xl.TuO bushels, against 624.800 bushels a yeur
ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago re
ported receipts of 44 cars, compared with
fetft cars last week and 429 cars a year ago.
The oorn market was strong, but the
voluzna of business was small, owing to a
lack of offeilngs. The fact that the prin
cipal holder of wheat has taken a aonil-
nent position on ths long ride ot the J orn
market caused the local crowd to favor the
buying side. While there was considerable
long corn on the market at times, an ac
tive demand from several of the larger com
mission houses readily absorbed all offer
ings. Much of the buying waa based on
the supposition that there Is very little
good corn In ths country. An Increased
shipping demand and ntrong foreign mar
kets were additional bull factor. . The
opening on May was 4j"o to S4ic higher
at W'.'iMSc. and after wiling between 61't.c
and 641'ti4c, cloeed at bc. July was up
VHc. closing at 62c. Iocsl receipts were
144 esrs. one of contract grade,
The feature of trading in oats was the
heavy buying of both May and July deliv
eries by ths leading bull houses. Offerings
were email throughout the duy and In con
sequence the market ruled strong. While
the strength In other grains, waa an influ
ence, the greatest strength was derived
m the fvt that the prices early in the
W'k discouraged farmers from marketing
their grain, so receipts are sanin light.

NEW YORK. Feb. 13.-The two hours
session of the stock exchange tolav in
tervening between the sessions of Thursday
ann ni'.ntiny attracted only a small at-
lenoance ot broKe.rs and members and the
trading was listless and unimoortant. The
opening level higher to conform to
me parity or London prices, whlh had
been lifted slightly yesterday durlfig the
holiday here. The small room traders at
tempted to take the day s prolits after the
uniiK eiaiemenc, with the result or carry
ing prices back to about the level of Thurs
day's prices.
Although the preliminary estimates of the
currency movement throurh regular chan
nels Indicated a gain In cash of about I2,0ou,-
me lc lease of 1,6'j3.U"0 shown by the
bank ntatement did not cause great surprise
an there was knowledge of considerable
shipments to Baltimore which did not figure
in me entimatcn. The nominal increawe in
the loans was lens than was exDected and
would be considered a negatively favoralile
lacior. me week s announcement of the
placing of I'iO.OiI.OcO of- eighteen months'
I'ennsylvanla company notes, $ti,tHK),Uo8 Mis
souri pacific notes and the news from Ha

proof of the largo actual demand for credits
which are In course of satisfaction. There
seemed to be eom.Bpeclnl pressure directed-
against New York Central against a sharp
opening advance. Official denials that hn
issue of notes waa In contemplation by tho
company did not avail altogether to quiet
apprehennlonn on that subject
nusiness in bonds has teen less, the plac

Cotton Market,

market opened steady at a decline .of 8
points to an advance of 11 points, showing
Inrroalnr readiness as the call progressed
In the absence of important offerings. Rny-
lng was encouraged by tho Duutsn iiiierprc-
tation of the week-end figures, but on the
other hand the break In New Orleans, while
he local market waa closed vosteraay, ana
he fear of European complications In the
far east, had a tendency to Increase offer-
1ngs, so that soon after the, call the market
eased off with the active months losing
IX to 23 points. 1 nis was ioiioweu uy t
recovery, after which the market ruled
