I'nder heavy tlquida tlcn by 11 prominent trader. May wheat ojsed weak at a net !oi of 4)'a"u. Corn, oats and pr.ivlsiona nre unchanged. The feature of trading In wheat was the relative strength and activity of the July delivery. The temporary supplanting of toe May option by lnc more distant month was due to an awakened realisation of he possibility of a shortage of wheal during the months of June and July. Fear of this contingency was emphasised through a re pott by a 81. Iaui trade Journal that many cnnipliiinta of damage to winter wheat by cold weather had been received. Closing; prices on t lie July option showed The market whs also bullishly affected by the decision of Attorney General Moody r.garoing "drawbacka" on wheat Imported lor the manufacture Into flour for export. Action of a leading operator In buying July and selling May was a factor In canning disparity between the two lending options. At the opening the market was Quite firm, Ma ybeing up He to He, at $I.171.17. July opened at SU'&t'Vl Predictions of snows throughout the west and southwest caused some selling of July early In the session and resulted In a decline to WHje. A leader of the bull crowd waa an active seller of May. Gradually but surely the price of that delivery sank lower. The same trader, however, soon started buying , juiy quite treeiy. fit traders followed the I lead. From r'l,ao July rose to $!.004- Late I In the day some reaction occurred on profit taaing. nnai quotations on July oeing II. to',.

Kxports for the week as shown by flrndstreet's were equal to 45.0X bushels. Primary, receipt were 333.200 bushels, compared with 66."W bushels a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago ieoned receipts of 228 cars, against 110 cars last week and 3(11 cara a year ago. Trud.ng In the corn market was unusually quiet and prices showed alnost no change. One explanation for the lack of interest might be found in the chaotic situation In freight rates due to the tight between the gulf lines and eastern roads. Western shippers. It waa said, are holding off until some settlement la reached. Local receipts today were small, the falling off, however, being partly due to the delay In shlptnentB caused by cold weather. May opened a shade lower, at 44V44Tio, sold between 444c and 44Tc. and closed at 44TiiC. Iocal receipts were eighteen cars, with two of contract grade. As a result of selling by cash houses and some local bears the oats market waa lather easy early In the day. Later a steadier tone developed on covering by shorts.

When buy ers did start out. however, it did not take them long to buy up most everything in sight. Only a few cars of beef steers were In cluded In the receipts and moft of those were of.onlv fair quality. Buyers, though, took hold fairly well and paid just about steady prices. Of course nome cf the cattle that illd not Just auit them were neglected and hard to move at steady prices, but as a general thing there was very little changa from yesterday In ruling prices. The cow market was also Just about stcudy. The demand for the more desirable grades was active nnd such kinds changed hands very freely. When It came to the common nnd medium kinds thme waa not quite ao much activity noticeable, but slill the prices paid could not be quoted any thing but steady with yesterday. With tho exception of some very late arrivals a fairly good clearance was made at a reasonably early hour. Bulls, veul calves and stags did not show enough change to be worthy of mention. There were only a few stockers and feed ers In tho yardo. and u.s supplies have bean light all tho week speculators were all will ing to take a few cattle even though it was Friday. As a result the good heavv cattle sold nt good strong prices, with othera Just about steady. Representative sales: BEEF STEERS. No 2... 6... ... I .. 17... 10... 12.!. n!!! 18...

The trains were so slow in arriv ing that only a small portion of the re ceipts was on aa!e at the opening and it took but a comparatively short llmo for most of the early arrivals to change hands. I Light weights of guod quality showed the I greatest ueinauu, as me ueiuauu tor mat kind particularly at the opening of the market, was very brisk. They sold largely around $4.70 and from that down; butchers and mixed hogs sold from $4.70 to $4.75, heavies $4.73 to $4.80, with a top at $4,824. The close of tho muiket was rather siow and weak. and. in fact, the late sales showed very little Improvement over yes terday, most of the curly advance having been lost, The average price of all the hogs today shows a gain of a little mora than 24o over yesterday's average. Rep resentative saies: . t, sb. . 74. 85. 38. Wool Market. BOSTON. Feb. 3.-WOOI, Regarding the wool market the Boston Commercial Bulle tin will say tomorrow: The market la dull. Small lots only are selling and not many of these. A little better movement of new Australian is reported, but the sales are far behind the receipts, which continue large. Owing to the prolonged dull spall some holders are becoming nervous. Weak ness has developed In domestic scoured and pulled wools and the high pretensions of holders have been shaded. Standard grades, however, are unchanged. The Lon don auction salea were a disappointment, prices declining on cross-bred. A general advance waa expected. The shipments of wool from Boston to date from December 29. 1904. according to tha lu me authorltv. are 23,765.439 pounds, against 26,690.591 pounds at tne sime time last year. 1 ne receipts to date are 24.61:1.136 pounds, aaalnst 13.46V).- 4(10 pounds for the same period last year. 81.
