Initial quotations on May were up , t" t'V. at ' I ' 1 c v July waa unchanged to a snail" Ingner. at 87'o.c to 8riSc. Immediately atter t lie opening Hioi is nid lip price of May to I1.1KV The demand was brought out by a rumor that a leader of a Wall street clique that la said to control a long line of May wheat had arrived In Chicago. An Intimation that the visit of the eastern speculator might have as an object a fur ther squeeze in May wheat Was the main cause of the sudden advance hi the price of jhat option, on the sharp upturn offer ings wcie 111 era), and the price quickly reacted to $1.15. Firmness or distant fu tures was due largely to hlgner prices at Liverpool. Cold weather In the northwest also had a bullish effect. Later the market received additional strength from a report by a Minneapolis- crop expert alleging that tne government crop report recently issued Is altogether too optimistic. The day's cul mination of bullishness was due to reports from Kansas mentioning deterioration In the appearance of the growing wheat. The plant at some places was said to be turn ing yellow. Damage by Hessian fly was also reported from Nebraska. July reached the highest point of the day. n 7Va1.:. Part of the g.-ilu waa lost later because of profit taking.

Sentiment In the corn pit waa Inclined to bullishness Shorts were active bidders throughout the day. but offerings were compara tlvely small. Reports of an Im provement In export demand was partly re sponsible for the firmness.

MARKET STRONG AND WEAK BY TURNS Probable Kdecl of Ilia May Wheat Ileal at Chicago and Possible i1 flattie Add to Nervous Keeling.. NEW YORK. April 12-Movements of stocks continued to give evidence today of much uncertainty on the pait of speruht tlve operators. Th current news failed to account for any depression and con jecture pointed to various explanations of the palpable weight upon Hie market. Signs r t conslderaole strength and of sharp weakness succeeded esch other all day. Aggressive strength shown by a few stocks tailed to overcome the sceptical and sus picious Httituile of the trading. Some of those who sold stocks protested that they saw IndiHiltahie evidence of selling for the account of some of the persons who have been tlo; most demonstrative leaders of the bull campaign. Considerable liquidation was attributed to the account of orders received from western sources and the conviction held that this reported measures of precaution and a strengthening position on the part of those committed to the speculative deal In whom. The wheat market was com paratively quiet today, but the develop ments there are watched with keen at tention from the stock market point of view, owing lo the Identity of extensive speculation, both In the wheat and stock markets. The share taken by this interest In the bull campaign which has been con ducted in stocks Is variously estimated and the extreme estimates current. If they should prove Justified, would sufficiently ex plain the uncertain tone of the present market. The substitution In the Northern Securities directorate of a new name for that of the head of ihe L'nion Pacific party was belittled on behalf of both sides to the old quarrel In that property. The fears of an outbreak of this old quarrel were emphatically declared to be unjustified. Hut the Wall street view of this matter haa gone considerably beyond H mere quiet ing of the old dispute and has adopted a view of thorough harmony nnd co-opern-tlon In going forward to new projects of even larger scope than those of the past. There has been unqueHt lonably extensive speculation In stocks based on this view and the rather curt manner of yesterday's action of the directors shakes the con fidence held In that supposition. Definite news from the hostile fleets In the China seas was eagerly looked for and the possible outcome of a threatened sea fight was a restraining Influence on the securities market. The weakening of the foreign exchange market was regnrded with relief and a lower discount rate in Ixwdon and an advance in the sterling exchange rate at Paris also eased the situation, which began to threaten a withdrawal of gold from New York. Rut It Is reallied that a decisive battle between the opposi tion fleets might affect foreign money mar kets to an extent which would preclpltuto a demand upon our money reserves. Not withstanding the discussion of the North ern Securities decision I'nlofi Pacific was firm to strong all dav. The other principal points of strength were In the Industrial list, notably Smelting. Amalgamated I per and the locoini-tive stocks. The ness of New York Central wns a strong contrary Influence and Illinois Central also suffered from free realizing on yesterday' wide advance. The electric atocks suffered on rumors of a rupture of a working agree ment and of the expansion of competition In their field. A sharp break In People's Gna was also an effectivu Influence. The Cleveland, Cincinnati. Chicago & St. Ixmis stock increase added another to the long list of new capital Issues coming upon the market. An enthusiastic weekly review of the Iron trade awakened a lively demand for I'nlted States Steel preferred and an active absorption of l'nion Pacific at the same time carried the market upwards to a strong closing. Bonds were steadv. Total anles. par value, $2,790.0011. Tinted States bonds were a.l unchanged on call. Quotations 011 the New York Stock ex change ranged as follows: Ha les.H'gli.Iow. Close.

The demand was apparently again In good shap, aa buyers were all out early, and the cattle soon began to move toward the scales- As compared with yeaterdny, there was but little change In ruling pricer.. The market on hee-f steers could safely be quoted active and steady to strong 011 anything at all desirable. In aome cases common cattle were neglected to some ex tent, but the change In ruling prices was too small to be worthy of mention. Thai a were quite a fern- pretty good cattle in tlu yards, aa will I seen from the sales be low. All the more desirabl 1 bunches weie out of first hands In good season and In fact a good clearance was made at a rea sonably early hour. 1 he cow mrket was also active ami steady to strin g on the better grad-8. As high as $5.10 waa paid for a load of row) and heifers mixed and $5.25 was paid f.-' heifers. All the buyers seemed to be anx loim for good stuff In the may of elllie. cows or helfera and the prleea paid mere very satisfactory. The common ami me dium classes were not as active as the choice stuff, but still the market could be quoted steady and everything sold with out much trouble In good season. There was no rrartfcular change In the prices paid for bulls, veal calves and stags. Good stuff was active, with others none too brisk, bul steady. The demand for the better grades of stockers and feeder was aufflcient to cause an active and fully steady market on such kinds Feeder buyers are now competitors on the marmed-up corn feds of good quality and consequently packers have to pay good strong prices for the short fedja to keep them away from the feeder buyers. The common kinds of stock cattle were a trifle slow today and in some ca-ies they were steady and In others a trifle lower. Representative sales: BEEF BTEIkRB. No. Ar Fr.

The general markei could best be described by calling It nv stlv 2'tc higher, with sales trom Mmng t, he higher. The bulk of the bogs went at 0 ami $5 32'-,. wit Ii the choicer loads at .:1.. Tho common fluff went tri m J.'i 3n domn. The range of prices Is iiom- so narrom- that unless the hogs are very choice or common they sell In Just about Ihe same notches, regardless of weight. The bt.gs that arc now in the greatest demand are handy wcightx, or those weighing f n in 200 to 2 ootinda. A prime load of he.-ivles. though, will still top the market, 11s is shown by the fuel lhat $5 35 mas paid for a toad this morning weighing 4 pounds. Most of t lie hogs mere out of Hist hands In good sea win, but tomard the close packers mere In clined to bo bearish.
