CHICAOO, April ffl.-Hlgher prices at Mverpo.il had a strengthening eneot on the market here today. Bullish sentiment was augmented hy reports of damage by rust to fall-sown wheat In Texas. The market closed firm with July up SfjVic. May is tip, c. Corn shows a gam ol So cials are practically unchanged. Pro visions art down 2c to 2oc. Notwithstanding a continuation of excel lent weather conditions throughout the iiuru .--iiiies a degree of conlidence on the buying side of tne wheat market that had not been met for some time past was In evidence. A part of the bullish senti ment was attributed to the seeming In diflerence ot holders of Mav wheat, the volume of trading In that option being very light throughout the session. Another fac tor was strength at Minneapolis, resulting from a good rah demand Mluher itr-teea at Liverpool formed a clincher In decisively establishing the dominance of bullish sen timent, on the other hand, weather con ditions were decidedly unfavorable to a bull campaign. Keports by a St. Louis trade paper furnished encouragement to the i-ears, tho claim being maue that the yield of winter wheat this year will be unusually large. The market was firm from the start. Initial ipiolatlons on May were up 94rilc at B'V(irt!ii'. . ilv was a shade lower to htc higher at 8'.!Vfl3o to S3Vo. A little pront-taking In May soon carried the price of May down to 8?c, but a quick re covery soon followed. After touching biVtfi Wc, July gradually advanced, and tor the remainder of the day held within 83c and K'.Vic. One of the leading bulls was cred ited with moderate purchase of the July option. A report from Waco, Tex., stating that red rust was prevalent In the wheat fields of that section started considerable buying on the part of pit traders late In the session. The market closed tlrm, with July at KJViSHHc Final quotations 011 May were at 8X)c. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to SD.iAJU bu. Exports for the week, according to Uradstreet's, were equal to l,2itt,0ii0 bu. Primary receipts were 317, o0 bu., compared with 133,2ii0 by. a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chi cago reported receipts or 14S cars, against 7s cars a year ago. Buying of a big line of May corn created a firm tone In the corn market. Shorts took alarm and covered freely. Higher prices at Liverpool had a bullish effect. July opened a shade lower at 4ac. sold between 4til,n'(? j41c and 4hc and closed at 4iHV 4t'Vc. Local receipts were 11m cars, wiin o cara ui v.-ui-1 1 a ct. grade. The chief feature of trading In the oats market was buying of May and selling of July by cash houses. The market was In fluenced largely by tne nrm tone 01 corn. Excellent weather was a bear factor. July opened unchanged to Vc lower at -v? :!574iC, sold up to 2c ana cioseu ai io-,u' !9c. Local receipts were 72 cars. Havv liquidation of May pork had a weakening effect on the provision market. Another depressing Influence was a de cline In prices for live hogs. At the close July pork was d.own lTftZOc at xu.utvw 12.W714. Lard was up Zc at i.zitt. "io were off Be at $7.07'4.

Shipments NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS Effectire Snpport Checks Demoralixed Tod Which Threatens Earlj MtrkeU EXTREME WEAKNESS NEAR END OF SESSION Feellnar Is Kervons and Vncer tain All Iay and the Volume of Transactions Is mall. NEW YORK, April 28. Effective support today checked the demoralized tone which threatened the market and quieted the spec ulative excitement with the result of a subsidence of activity and a steady tone until sudden extreme weakness again set In In the last fifteen minutes. During tne progress of the recovery the nverago prices was lifted above last night and some considerable gains were established. specially in tne nortnsjoeiern railroad group and the trunk lines. After yesterday s downward plunge there as a fear that the further prices declined he more pressure there would l to sell ocks. Tills nimrehenlnn whs sufflrlentlv justified by the hoavy liquidation this morning which was caused by the uneasl- icss throughout the country resulting from the heavy declines of yesterday. With nrelns materially lmnnlred and the fear of still larger losses to be faced the urgent desire to sell is easily understood. Sup port was attempted at the opening and the more cheerful tone of forelirn markets iday aided tho effort. Prices of Americans In London were lifted considerably above last night and there was liberal buying In New York for foreign account after the radlng began, but thene gains quickly dls- ppeareo unuer tne tiooa 01 liquidation hlch came into the market from all quar- ers. It was only by the most vigorous measures of support that the market was saved from demoralization again during the first honr. Enormous nmnunta of storks passed through the market In that period in mo course or contest between op posing forces. The trading In the first hour in fact made tin the bulk of the ansactlons for the whole dav. The rhlef fear of speculative holders evidently was the Instability of the market rather than ny actual developments nffectlng values nd when the sunnort had demonstrated Its effectiveness sufficient assurance was Imparted to dissipate the urgent desire to sen. i nere was evidently a large short Interest left open also. The failure of confirmation of some of the alarmist ru mors which circulated yesterday impressed tne sellers or stocks with the Idea tnat there had not been good grounds for their action and had Increased the disposition to rebuy. While the resignation of the ead of the Missouri Pacific system from he I'nlon Pacitlc board was discussed 1th seriousness, the effect on the market was lessened by the relative flrmneos of Missouri Pacific and the rood sunnort of Linon paciiic. The forecast of the currency movement for the week gave promise of a consld rable Increase In the cash holdings of the banks to be shown In tomorrow's bank tatement. The mnrket continued to show nervous and uncertain undertone In BDlte f the marked falllne off In transactions and there seemed a disinclination on the part of the buyers to follow the advance in prices, ine persistent strength in tne foreign exchange market, supposed to be ue to preparation for remittances to Jap anese loan subscriptions. Is not liked. Discounts were firm in Tokio today and the price of sterling at Paris declined. Next week Is payable one-half of the sub scriptions to the $100,000,000 of Pennsylvania convertible bonds with the privilege to subscribers to pay in the full amount. he nervousness of the market was easily seen from the quick response to the late break In Louisville & Nashville to 144. Ixeomotlve and General Electric also made disconcerting plunges. In a very few min utes mucn of tne gains melted away and the closing was very weak again. Bonus were heavy. The totul sales, par value, $2,790,000. United States bonds were all unchanged on call. The quotations on the New York Stock exchange ranged as follows: Sales. Hleh. Low. Close.

On the close, however, puckers became still mire bearish and their bids were ftTlOc lower than yesterdny.

Discounts were firm. Trading on the Stock exchango was inactive. The hesitancv and nervousness due to the polit lcnl unrest were still apparent, consols opened heavy, recovered a iraction and re lapsed in the atterrooji. Homo rails were depressed. Americans opened Hat on the break In Wall street and tallied Bmartly to above parity; The uncertainty regard ing Wall street and rumors of financial dif ficulties In New York restrained opera tions. In the afternoon the receipt of the New York Quotations caused depression. but stocks rallied and closed firmer. For eigners were dull and unsettled. Imperial Japanese government 6s of 1904 were quoted at 1004. PARiS, April 28. prices on tne tiourse today were strong, owing to an official denial of the alarmist reports concerning Morocco.

As a general thing operators were looking for a small supply of cattle owing to the sharp decline of the last few days and tho fact that receipts were In excess of expec tations gave buyers a good excuse for breaking market. The market on beef steers was extremely dull and unevenly lower. Some of the choice handy weight cattle that buyers Just happened to want were perhaps not over a dime lower, but the less desirable grades were hard to sell at any price, as none of the buyers seemed to want them. It was a slow, mean market from start to finish and the day was well advanced before anything like a clearance was made. As compared with the close of last week the market Is all of 3og40c lower and some of the com moner cattle show even a greater loss than that. , t . The cow market was also extremely dull n4 iinantisfnctorv from the selleis' stand point. Buyers did not seem to care whether they got any fresh supplies or not and the good stuff suffered fully as much as the common kinds. In many cases salesmen were unable to get even a bid until the day was well advanced and offers ranged from 10c to a quarter lower than yesterday. As compared with a week ago the market Is from 30840c lower and In some cases tho i.,a nmnnnts to 60c. It Is the most radical break that has taken place here in some time. . , Bulls, veal calves ana stags were an siow and lower in sympainy wun me aecuna on ateera find COWS.

Clipped ewes sold as high as 84.65, clipped sheep und yearlings mixed brought 85.15 and some clipped Mexican wethers sold for 85.00. There were so few sheep on sale that most of them were disposed of nt an early hour. The bulk of the offerings consisted of Colorado lambs and the market was very dull and a little lower. Packers did not seem to be at all anxious for supplies, claiming that the demand was In bad shape and that prices hnve been too high as compared with other markets. As a result very little business was transacted until a late hour. As high as 87.10 was laid for some pretty good lambs.
