Ths wheat resists any attempt to cause
a break In either the speculative or the
ah market. 'I h -stories of dull Hade
In many rases rnrm to come from thorn:
who are moat anxious to buv on any reces
sions. The, positions ta statistically stronger
this week than before. 'I he Wall sticet
bunch continue scalping ope rations on a.
large scale. The market during mst week
fluctuated lc and rloBed l'fcc. Higher than
the close of the preceding week. Thla is
7c higher limn It was two months ago and
within l'ic of the high point for this crop.
It la tha above tha low point which wua
reached Inst June. 'I he May today was
not so strong aa the close Saturday for
after opening at I1.17l4 It slackened off by
noon to (1.16V. The July opened up strong
t $1.2'4. but lost c by noon. '1 he Sep
tember nas followed the movement of the
nearhv future At noon today it was c
higher than the close .of Saturday, ljver
pool waa from 'a lower to 'c stronger.
Ths revolution In Argentina and the un
favorable wenther In India. were lhj
strong features and unexpectedly large
Russian shipments offset them.
The snows are Increasingly good for the
winter wheat. However they were light
west of the Mississippi, In most places, Hiid
In the sonthweat where msich needed were
alight. There Is some nnxlrty expressed
ovor the prospect of winter killing In
Kansas and Oklahoma anil In Texas it la
aaid replanting la necessary. East of here
(he crop Is probnbly In good condition, but
in the Atlantic Mates the wheut has been
corered by a sheet of Ice and killing Is
feured.
The world's shipments of wheat ara 9.
X2.OO0 against 9.034,000, the preceding week
and H.5n3,u00 last yeur. The Ausirallan
hlpments am &HM against l,480.oo0 the

CH1CAOO. Feb. Dispelling of fear
that fall-eown wheat had been damaged
brought out liberal ItqHtdattAit In the wheat
pit todsy. At the clnaa, May wheat was
off HrV and July StfV. Corn and oata
are practically unchanged. Provisions are
up 1V87V-
The weakness In the Wheat market de
veloped late In the day, a fairly firm
tone hieing manifested early. At the open
ing May waa unchanged to V higher at
11.17frl.l7'4 and July unchanged to V
higher at $l.o2&1.02V An active demand
for July by ahorts was the feature of
trading during the first hour. Pit traders,
nevertheless showed an Inclination to sell
Mav, owing to the fact that cables were
only a tritle higher In the face of a 3c
advance here Saturday. Weekly statis
tics were generally construed as rather
nearish, world a shipments being large ana
the amount on passage being considerably
Increaaed.
A heavy fsll of enow throughout the
west and south weet practically Insuring
the winter wheat crop from damage by
cold weather waa a bearish factor known
when trading began, but apparently un
derestimated until later in the day. All
the influences named had a depressing ef
fect on the May delivery, but the demand
for July was sufficient to prevent tem
porarily any decline. Later many traders
who had bought July wheat laat week
turned sellers. Prices gradually yielded
to the preaaure. During tha lust half hour
the market became weak. May selling off
to $l.lVal lS ana July to 81.01V4. The
close waa almost at the lowest point of
the day, final quotations on May being at
81.1t,4Tl .18V,. July closed at $1. 01 WW .ill S
Clearances of wheat and flour were equal
to 8I.H00 bushels. The amount on passage
Increased 3,640,000 bushels and the visible
supply decreased 408,000 bushels. Primary
receipts were 2u,400 bushels, compared with
7oo,5iiO bushels a year ago. Minneapolis,
Duluth and Chicago reported receipts of
41H cara, against 601 cars last week and 497
cars a year ago.
The corn market was subjected to con
siderable selling bv cash houses, but prices
showed only a slight decline. The prin
cipal resson for the steadiness of the
market waa a decrease in the visible sup
ply ut a time when arrivals might be
expected to show a marked- Increase. May
opened a shade to V higher at 454(,(a4fiV
to 45V. sold off to 46V and closed at
45'4'i?45Hc. l.oeal receipts were 275 cars,
with 1 of contract grade.
Trading In oata waa largely of a scalp
ing nature. The market was steady, prices
showing very little fluctuations. May
opened V4frV higher at 3V, sold between
)o and aiV'iSOV and closed at SO-'H'ftOOV.
Local receipts were, HJ cars.,
Provisions were quiet and firm. Senti
ment was Influenced mainly by decreased
receipts of live hogs. At the close May
pork was up 7V, at 812.95. Lard waa up
oc. at 14.97V,. Rlba were 2V higher,' at
$6.0. ....
Kslimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
33 cars; corn, 452 cars; oats, 114 cars; hogs,

SEWYIRK STOCKS AND BONDS
Market is Cull and Heart and the Closing
is Easy,
RAILROAD ISSUES ARE NEGLECTEO
pecalatlve Appetite Feela the t.ark
etf Highly Seasoned Rnaaora by
Which It Waa Braced
Last Week.
NEW YORK, Feb. 8,-The speculative ap
petite today relt the hick of highly Bea
soned rumors by which It waa braced last
week. Somewhat languid attention was
paid in conwequence to railroad stocks
which were concerned In most of last
week's rumors. There was a diversion of
Interest to the list of specialties and In
that department there was some striking
movements. Stock of that class, however,
have less Influence upon genersl sentiment
than the standard rallroud stocks. The
sympathetic effect today was confined to
a power of resistance developed against
the early depression, which pretty well re
stored tne level of prices, but did not carry
It above Saturday s closing. The selling
was In part a continuation of the Satur
day movement which evidently was due
to misgivings over the progress of the agi
tation for control of railroad rates and to
the poor bank statement. Tho early de
cline was Insignificant outside of some of
the Blocks which had been unduly stimu
lated last week. A number of the minor
Vanderbilts were In this category and
showed the effect of the failure of con
firmation stories which circulated last Week.
Today's substitute for the cuatomary deal
story waa a revival of old reports of a
combination under one control of the New
York City traction companies. A spurt of
twelve points to the new high reeord by
Interbornugh Rapid Transit on the curb
gave color to rumors, although the movo
ment was effected on light transactions In
the stock. The Metropolitan properties and
Manhattan make a reajly respoiiHo how
ever, 011 the stock exchange on this out
side movement, notwithstanding the lack
of official sanction of any of the reports.
The only other advances of any great
amount were In stocks so little conspicuous
as to have little influence on general senti
ment. Most of the list was sluggish and
uncertain In tone, but reflected no active
pressure to veil. Attention wan kept awake
to the subject of federal rate control by
various measures of agitation against the
proposition on the part of railroads them
selves, tho movement in one case taking the
form of a circular addressed to stock
holders. The motiey market was unaffected by the
bank statement and some expression was
found for hope that tho export movement
of gold hnd spent Its force. But the mar
ket for exchange continued firm and heavy
additional engagements were announced bo
fore the day had expired. It is the general
expectation also that the Southern Pacific
bond transaction remaina to be reflected
in tho loan item of the banks and Chicago
made some heavy drafts on New York
last week In connection with the street
railway purchase which also figured to only
a small extent In last week's banking aver
ages. Speculative sentiment waa thereforo
Inclined to discount to some extent an
other unfavorable bunk statement for this
week. Railroad officials reported some em
barrassment to traffic on account of the
exceedingly cold weather and the grain rato
war which succeeded In diverting largo,
grain traffic from Chicago to the guff ports,
but at not very profitable rates, liross
earnings of railroads for the fourth week
of January made a generally favorable
showing. The heavy tone In the railroad
department was unrelieved and tne cioa-
trine W&j3 OHflV.
Bonds were firm. Total sales par value

large and continuous, and we must be prepared to furnish the bulk of the world's shipments until
the Argentine crop is ready months hence. Without question, the drain on our supplies will be
enormous ami all fears that large reserve will be e;trried ver to next year have disappeared
from the tniud of the well informtd trader. Sentiment is strongly in favor of higher market for
eom. The price is about 12c under a year ago and 5c less than the average for 1i04. As little
recessions in the price occur, buy May corn and trade from this on in anticipation of an advancing
rather than a declining market.
OATS The market for Oats is now attracting interest und general attention. With the enlargetl
trade, there is a noticeable increase in investment orders tilled on all slight recessions, (nicensus
of opinion is that elevator -a ml cash interests are more bullish than hertofore. and, as receipts keep
light ami stocks disappear, a great deal better feeling prevails among holders as to future sup
plies and demands. The visible supply has been induced from 24,478.000 bushels on December
J?rd to 18.88S.000 bushels, with every indication that it will be reduced to a point that will look
very bullish between this and spring, especially when the price oats are now selling for is taken
into account. Humors of a revival of export demands, and estimate that fanners' holdings are not
in excess of a year ago. along with the fact that consumption is the largest on reeortl, are certain
to be stroni' Indus in the future. Alone with this there comes up for the trade to consider at
this time the knowledge that timing the spring, mouths is the regular time for establishing high
prices for this cereal. A' year ago the bull movement started earlier and May oats at this time
were worth 4(ic to 47c. Another advantage in favor of the buyer is the strength and upward ten
dency in the wheat ami corn markets, and those looking for a safe investment should not over
look the opportunities afforded purchasers on the present temporary declines.
PROVISIONS The feature in the Provision market has been the attitude taken by the pack
ers', and through the Interest mid buvlng by the mantifnct irers of the products tho market has had quite niHterinl advanra
during the p;tat month. In which Mar I'ork sold up to 113.15. On all micturitions under that price there appears to be orders on
hand to pick up offerings which are nfterwurd held off the mnrket. Best ndvlces arc that we are nciirina a time when big
decresHes In the movement of hogs will be met with, and this, with Improvement In cash demand, will tend to surround the mar
ket with a set of strong conditions. Therefore, the time would seem to have arrived for taking hold of the entire list on weak
spots for a sharp advance. Quotations abroad sre higher and stocks small. Our clearances are large. Tho lolsl exports of
all meuts for week ending Januurv 281 h were 32,528.000 pounds, compared with ffl.MI.OOH pounds for the corresponding time a
vrar sgo. In view of the Increased cost of all foods except meuts. with dealers supplies light, we look for large distributive
sales and higher cash markets and do not nntlctlpate much if any decline. Should this reaction extend lower, think It will b
a good place to make your purchases and hold for substantial returns.

CATTLE There was a very light run of
cattle here this morning una In tact sup
pling were moderate at nil points, so that
the general tendency of prices was up
ward, Tha market here, though, waa not
very active as packers seemed to be very
much opposed to paying mora money and
made the claim that prices here arc too
high as compared with Chicago.
There were only a few cara ot beef steers
Included In the receipts and most of those
were only of fair quality. Tha market
could be quoted all the way from ateady to
a dime higher. Buyers did not take hold
with any great amount of lite and were
slow to bid more than steady prices. Sales
men ull thought they ought to get more
money and aa a result trailing was miliar
alow. As would naturally be expected un
der such circumstances the market was
rather uneven. The kinds that suited pack
em the best sold strong to a dime higher,
while those that were not In such favor

The cow maiket was rather slow coi
sldering the light run and price were un
even. A general thing, though, the
prices paid tor anything ut all acsirahln
could be quoted strong to a dime higher.
Some of the undesirable grades were only
about stoady. Trading was not very active,
so that it took some little time to dispose
cf the receipts.
Bulls, veal calves und ntugs sold in just
about tho same notches they cll'l at tho
close of last week.
The market on stockers and feecers was
fairly active and strong to a dime higher.
Receipts were very light and us speculators
had but a few cattle left over from lust
week they were all anxious for supplies,
which forced prices up a little. Kven the
commoner cattle sold to a little better ad
vantage than they did last Friday. Repre

HOGS Receipt of hogs were rather light
here thla morning und with favorable ad
vices from other points the market ahowod
soma Improvement. Salesmen aa a rule
thought I hey ought to get a dim advance
but buyers were slow to bid that much and
aa a result trading Waa not very active.
Tha market could perhaps brat be described
by calling It &c to 10c higher, the most im
provement being on tha good hoga, which
In tha majority of case aold rig lit at luc
higher than ut Ilia close of last week. The
light weight ld largely from 14 80 dawn,
butcher and mixed bogs from 14 Wl tu 14. 8S
and hoaviea from M IS to 4 s6. Trading was
alow all the morning mt that II was late
before a clearance waa made. Represen
tative sales:
Toward noon, when some of the lata
trains arrived, packers became heaiibh and
the lata sales wers but little better than
Saturday's market. Salesmen, of course
thought they ought to have the morning
prices, an', as a result finite a few hoga
had to te carried over until afternoon.

SHEEP There ww a light run of sheen
and lambs here hp compared with a year
ago, but as compared with a week ago
there whs but little change. The table
above will show the exact ilgures.
The demand from pHckers wss brisk thla
morning so- that buers were all out earlv
snd took overythlng na fast as offered. The.
mnrket could sufely he quoted active und
strong, though the scarcity of Hlrlctlv
cholce grades does not make the mnrket
on paper appear particularly strong. There
were ewes good enough to bring $4.85 and
yearlings sold up to frt.25. There were no
choice lambs offered, tho best price being
7.0. The demand was fully equal to the
supply o that everything was disposed of
at an early hour.
