CHICAOO Feb. .-8lack demand for
flour todav had a debilitating effect on the
wheat market. At the close wheat was
barely xtendy. with July ' down. May
wheat whj up ic. Corn showed a gain of
Sc Oats are up '4,c and provisions ic
to 7Hc.
High cshles caused some firmness In the
wheat market at the opening here. My
was unchanged to V higher at $1 1H to
$I.1HV July also was unchanged to . 'e
higher at $1 00T to fl.ol's. The Initial firm
tens wa due to covering by shorts who
took advantage of yesterday s decline In
prices. Pit traders, however, were gen
erally bearish, the conipsradvely liberal
receipts 111 the northwest apparently being
to outweigh the small advance at Liver
pod. Furthermore fresh annw had fallen
throughout the west and southwest. Julv
option was especially subject to selling
pressure. In consequence the price of July
delivery dropped to $1.V Msy declined to
$l.lt. A fairly active demand for May de
veloped isler from commission houses. At
a result thst option soon rallied to $1 1S'4
In sympathy July advanced to fl.01VfH.014.
RulllahneHs wss dampened, however, by
advices from the northwest. One report
from Minneapolis stated that unless busi
ness Improves the flour mills (here prob
ably would close Saturday. Prices soon
sagged off attain on renewed selling and the
market closed barely steady with May at
$1.1hS. Final quotations on July were at
$1.0o. Clearances of wheat and flour were
equal to 41, -'() bushels. Primary receipts
were 302,fm bushels, compared with 432.0OI)
a year ago. Minneapolis, Ihiluth and Chi
cago reported receipts of 242 cars against
23" cara last week and 241 cars a year ago.
A revival of Interest was witnessed In
the corn market, trading today being quite
active. Sentiment in the pit waa bullish
and good gain In prices were recorded.
Light acceptances from the country formed
the basis of a liberal demand from shorts
ami commission houes. May opened un
changed to a shade higher at 4K'c to 46Vtfl
4TV, sold up to 4.Vc and closed at the
top. Local receipts were 199 cars, none of
contract grade.
Strength of corn caused some firmness
In the oats market. Trading was fairly
active early In the day. but later the mar
ket was Inclined to drag. May opened un
charged to a shade lower at 304c to SOVd'
SO'ic sold up to ,WVu'3c and closed at
3ii'4o. Ixtc.il receipts were 76 cara.
Provisions were firm on a moderate de
mam) from commission houses. Higher
prices for corn and a steady market for
hogs were the chief Influences At the
close May pork wns up 74- at $12.90. Lard
was up 6c at $.924. Ribe were 674u
higher at $6.87VH.90.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
11 cats, com, 213 cars; oats, 67 cars; hogs,

NFW YORK. Feb. 9 Some reluctance de
veloped In the upward movement of prices
on the stock exchange today and the efforts
to gt them higher were largely relin
quished as the dav wore on. The strength
of a few stocks did not serve to prevent (he
sversge level of prices from dipping lower
than last night. But the effect of the
decline was to sink the trading Into great
dullness and to suspend prices at a range
only slightly below last night. It Is re
garded as a technical evidence of strength
In (he market after an extensive rise If a
setback In the movement does not bring out
Isrge offerings of speculative holdings lo
realise profits or to ssve losses. One of the
most striking features of the recent market
Is the seeming disappearance of stocks and
their failure to come out except at a aulA
stsntial enhancement In the price.
The pause In the demand today was most
apparent, but Its onuses were obscure. Al
though the admission to the Atchison di
rectorate of Cnion Pacific interests is re
garded ss giving a measure of credit to
msny rumors of railroad deals, the stocks
affected hang back. The same was true of
the T'nited States Steel-stocks on the con
ditions reported In that trade, for which
a leading authority uses the emphatic term
"astounding." That Is to say, with produc
tion at the high record rate It is still
below the rate of consumption as shown by
the decline In the stocks on hand during
January. The failure to respond by the
steel stocks and the Pacifies to news of
this character arouses the fear on the part
of operators that other Important develop
ments, which have been rumored, may fall
to move prices upon their announcement,
even should they prove true. Sentiment
was affected also by the report of the de
parture on a long trip of an Influential
party of speculative operators. Another
influence was the stiffening of the tension
on all the lines that make for a resumption
of gold exports to France. Tho cancella
tion of a part of orders of gold bars which
were to be sent out today led to it strong
recovery In the exchange market here, to a
fall In sterling at Paris accompanied by a
stiffening of the discount rate in London.
There were renewed inquiries for gold for
export. Official Intimations that an addi
tional Japanese loan was to be negotluted
may have had Its effect on the London dis
count market. Arrangement to ship $3,000,
000 more In gold certificates lo Cuba on
Saturday 1 to be reckoned with consider
ing the effect on bank reserves here. In
spite of the course of the exchange market
there was buying of stocks here for Lon
don account.
The early advance in Pennsylvania and
Ontario ft Western, the strength of Illinois
Central and a renewed rise In the local
tractions about exhaust the list of Import
ant strong stocks. Som of the Influence

CATTLE There was quite a liberal rin
of cattle reported this morning, but It wai
the middle of tot' forenoon before enougn
of them had arrived to make a market. As
a result the market was as. alow in open
ins us It haa been for the last several
days and It was late In the afternoon before
a clearance was maae.
There were aulte a few beef sierra In
cluded In the receipts and a number of
them showed considerable quality. Buyerd
took hold quite freely and anything at all
desirable sold readily enough ai good
steady prices, as high as $5.25 being paid.
The common to meulum grades were not
as active as the choicer cattle, but still
thcra was very Ilttii changu noticeable In
ruling prices.
The- cow market was uneven. , In some
cases steady prices were puld ' while In
others salesmen thought they had to take
a dime less than they sold similar cattle
for yesterday. The market yesterday,
though, was uneven, so that It is rather
hard to make comparisons. As a general
thing, though, the market on desirable
grades was not much different today from
vesterduy s average,. Trading was fairly
active on anything at all good and con
sideiliig the late arrival of trains the bulk
of the offerings was disposed of In fairly
good seuJ'on.
There was some tendency to pound the
market on bulls except In the case of the
best grades, but veal calves showed very
little change.
The market on good heavy feeders held
steady, hut the common and light cattle
were alow and a little lower. The re
ported htorm coming from the west had a
tendency to . make speculators ' cuutldua
about getting many cattle on hand that
they could not readily dispose of, which
explains the weakness on the commoner
cattle. Representative sales:

quite a liberal run of
rnortitni. .u . .
lings iriiii - mn r,e
seen from the table of receipis above. v y
unfavorable reports were rrc Hived limn
Chlesgo. but in spite of that fact ine mar
ket here ruleo; Hi live anil filgher. At me
opening prices were about L4e in 5c h.gh 'r
ami as the morning advanced me market
gamed in strengtn and activity until u
was fully 6c higner. Buyers seemed to be
afraid tnat receipts the rest of the week
would be very light owing lo th severe
stoim that wa reported coming irom toe
west, and as result they all eook hold
freely and all the early arrivals, smjuiu
Ing to over 100 cara. were disposed ot in
short order. Light weights sold largely
from $4.95 down, butchers and mixed fiom
$4 61 to $4 70, heavies 84.70 to $4 80 and ae
high as $4 86 was paid for prime heavies.
The close of the market was active and
strong, prions being at the high point of
the day. In fart some of the rales showed
an advance over yrstsrday of llic. Repre
sentative sales:
Hi IK hp A new trii) wss put on the lamb
market this morning when a string or led
western lambs sold lor 7.78. They were
well finished, however, and attracted con
siderable attention. The general mifrket
on both sheep and lambs could safely be
quoted strong and active, and some sales
were considerably higher than the aame
kinds brought yesternay. For example,
some of the same yearlings tnat soid e
terday for $6.li went todav for $6.2A, or 15c
higher. The demand was of liberal pro
portions, and with laght receipts trading
ruled setiv. everything being sold as fust
as offered. A bunch vi clipped ewes was
ottered this morning and ihey sold for
$4.1i., while another string of ewes with the
wool on brought $4.50. Mexican wethers
hrought $51 and western yearlings $6.
