Cash wheat Is stronger In the northwest and has advanced materially ut Minneap olis. Old wheat is scarce In Kaunas and some mills In that state have been loreed to shut down. Reports ol damage In the southwest ore coming mostly by way of Kansas City. A man of Hall-i!:ikrr s llrm In that city writes from learned, Kan., that wheat has jKone backwards from 7 to 10 points. Sedg wick. Kan., reports strong winds and dry ing weather, with complaints from the farmers. A special to Sunderland At l'p dlke from Woodson at Kansas City says: "A largo elevator company, operating forty stations In Kansas, says the yield of wheat will be disappointing. It will not be within 26 per cent of what was expected thirty days ap.o." Complaints of rust come also from Texas and Oklahoma. Naponee, Neb., says the wiic.U there Is beginning to look yellow In spots, though no reason can he assigned for It, as the weather has been favorable. The Chicago papers are quoting from l'rof. Uruner of the intversity of Nebraska on the HchbIoii fly. He says that the plants look line, but appearances are deceptive, as the wheat does not begin to show the real damage done by the tly until It begins heading, lie mentions the activity of the flv last fall. Cables are a liflie lower on corn on ac count ot yesterday's American decline. Chicago shipped bushels. A wire Hum that city to lue Adams Uraln com pany says: "There Is said to bo a short age ot over 14,ouo,o00 bushels of coin In rtBW York, some ot It lor Chicago inter ests, liulls here are wondering v. acre the shorts are going to get cush corn to make llieir deliveries. " A wire Ironi New lorn is to the cried that only one car of corn was received there yesterday, and there was a lair export Inquiry, auout tac out of Today's Record-Herald says: "Grant W. ivenney oi Kansas i ny was on uiu nuur yesterday. He believes the heavy buying of Heotember wheat on the Kansas Cilv ex cnaiiKo durliiK the last ten days has bi.tti tor Chicago account and that the purchases nave been largely hedged by sales or juiy in Chicago and elsewhere. He hgured this as a sound position, as a crop condition that would result In failure to make liberal deliveries of July wheat In Chicago in July would certainly bring the southwest ern prices to a higher level. Mr. Kenney ' believes that a ureal deal of wheat will come to Chicago this year from Kansas tilv And tha southwest." Regarding yesterday s situation at Chi cago, the Inter-Ocean of today says: "A sensational play was made by the leading Interests In July wheat yesterday. Prices were forced off lc to 844c. about midday by Valentine's open selling. The market looked weak until within fifteen minutes of the close, when orders were given for brokers to buy l,000,ouo bushels. August Brosscau started the buying at 84'c and took 5OU.00O btiBhels. the others following. They found the market comparatively baro of offerings and the price shot up to KoVse, where It closed. Only a part of the orders wero filled, as the wheat was not to be Had Apparently the parties giving the orders knew they would not be executed, and wanted to make a strong close. The Chicago Tribune ouotes from B. H. Slaughter as follows: "Foreigners have been rather steady buyers of September wheat and to some extent of July for some time. This demand shows that Europe is Soing to need more of our wheat and is not issatlsfled with present prices. The small supplies of (dd wheat everywhere make the July situation strong. It is at least three quarters ah old crop future and with any mishap at harvest, almost entirely so. In view of the high prices being paid for cash wheat. It, looks as though July ought to do better and the trade Is beginning to recognize Its posibllltles. OiiihIi C'atu Prices.

WEATHER IN TUB GRAI I1KI.T hnwers nd Features of the Traillns; and Cloalna; I'rlees on Ilnnrd of Trade. CHICAGO, May -The price of wheat for July delivery advanced V a bushel here todsy. Dwindling receipts In the I'nited Slates and higher t rices at Liver pool were amot.g the chief causes. The market closed at the highest point of the day. Corn phows a guln of V)4c Oats r practically unchanged. Provisions are off 7'jo. The wheat market was strong from the Mart. At the opening July was up lc to n nt l-ne to Vo. There was a rush to buy the Julv option. rommlsMon hmises and shorts vlelng In efforts to secure the spar ing quantities offered. A sharp advance at Minneapolis, suggesting possible dmnge to the spring sown crop by cold, wet woither was one of the vital reasons. An- j but otnor r.ictor was the strong tone or Liver pool cables, unusually light shipments from Australia being hirgely Instrumental in causing the advance In the foreign grain market. Kceelpt nt the principal grain enters In America were very small. Only one car arrived at Chlcigo today, ue- mand increased as the session advanced. and prices continued to move In an upward llrectlon. A lw reports were received from the southwest telling of damage by rust. One report from Nebraska claimed that much damage hsd been done by a severe hailstorm. During the last few minutes of trading the demand became ex ceedingly urgent and the market closed at the highest point of the day with July at S7V4. Clearances of wheat and flour were 103,1100 bushels, compared with l.w.ao bush els a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chiengo reported receipts of S9 cars, against 101 last week, and 91 cars a year ago. Influenced by the advance In wheat the corn market had a strong undertone. Pre- Ictlons of additional rain also tended to rente bullish sentiment, the prevailing wet weather being a serious hindrance to plant ing operations. Shorts were the best buy ers. July ooened He higher at 4i cents, sold between 4fi7frc and 4"i4 tMTC nnd closed nt the hltchest point of the day. IOcal receipts were E0 curs, none of contract grade. Oats were firm In sympathy with other grains. Trading was very quiet, the re vived Interest In wheat drawing many lead ers 11 way from the oats pit. July opened unchanged to a shade higher at L'!"i Wc to l'Vc. sold between a" ,c and 29VU -SMjC. and closed at 'ir. Local receipts, hi cars. Receipts of live hogs todiiv were double the amount estimated yesterday, and the unexpected Increase In arrivals had a weak ening effect on provisions. Provisions were moderate sellers. Demand was scattered. At the dose all of the July options were off ,'c, porn closing at liz.40: lard at I1..1M1 and ribs at I7.2m.i7.25. Estimated receipts for Monday: Wheat. (! cars; corn, 4a cars; oats, 65 cars: hogs, 63,000 head. The lending futures ranged as follows: NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS Benewed Pressure Against Pacific- Rail wa;i Causes a Bad Impression.

A decid edly low range of prices for Americans came from London this morning and It be came evident that some weak accounts wete tided over the settlement which was completed yesterday and saved from fail ure were coming up on the market again. In the local market the renewed pressure against the Pacifies caused a bad Impres sion and undid the effects of yesterday's impressive buying of these stocks. There was a good deal of irregularity in the. group. Great Northern preferred, Northern Pacific. Northern Securities Itself and the Burlington Joint bonds showing some strength while t'nlon Pacific, South ern Pacitlc and St. Paul on the other bund were under pressure. A rather vague re port was In circulation of a determination arrived nt by the St. Paul authorities to rush their extension to the Pacillc coast. This was the nearest approach to news benring on the group. A bad Impression was caused by the announcements of a deficit In the earnings of the New York. New Haven A Hartford the quarter ending March 31, the first In the history of the companv as was pointed out. The bank statement did not vary widely from ex pectation, the loan expansion going to swell the deposit Item and the reserve re qu'rement, while the cash holdings de creased slightly as wns expected. The net result was a shrinkage of over $2,0u0,U"0 in the mnrgln of the surplus reserve bringing that item down to lii,712.57f.

Connccledby private wires Totals 145 6,073 CATTLE There were a few bunches of cattle in the yards this mornlnjr, but not enough to make a fair test of the market. For the week receipts are aDout 2,000 neau heavier than thev were last week, and as compared with the same week of last year there Is very little difference. The demand has apparently been of limited proportions, except for the more desirable grades, and as a result a rather slow, indifferent mar ket has been experienced on most days. The more desirable grades of beef steers are closing not a great deal different from tne close 01 last ween, ine nrst tnree days of the week packers pounded the market in bad shape, but the feeling tho latter half of the week was a little better, so that the choice grades are not over weak to a dime lower than Uiey were at the close of last week. The common to medium grades are around IOiS'ISo lower, and some salesmen quoted thorn KK&20O lower. It has been a very irregular mnr ket, so that some saleB have looked much better than others. Good to choice steers mav be Quoted from o. io'iib.25: fair to good, $5.25(fKi.75; common to fair, $4.O01jS.15. The supply of cows and heifers has not been heavy this week, and with a fair de mand prices have not shown a great deal of change. Choice handy weight cows and heifers have sold exceptionally wen ana such kinds are a little higher than they were a week ago. The general run of stuff Is about steady, and In some cases some of the commonest kinds may be a Bhade easier. The change, however, Is so small as to be hardly worth mentioning. Good to choice heifers may be quoted from $4,755? $5'25; good to choice cows, $4.&W5.0O; fair to good cows, $3.9o4.40; common to fair cows. $1.75413.16. Bulls are about steady for tne week, and so are stags. Good to choice bulls sell from $3.90ijf4.50; common to fair, $2.25f(f3.75. Veal calves are a nine stronger, oest graues selling up to $6.25. Very few stocKers una reeaers arrived this week, nnd not many were wanted, as farmers seem to be too busy with their work to come to market for stock cattle. Something strictly choice In the way of heavv. fleshy feeders would probably sell not far from Bteady with a week igo, but anything a little lacking In quality Is 15fj 26c lower. Strictly choice light cattle to go on grass are also not far from steady, but common ngnt sturr is almost unsalable and lfVrr25c lower. Good to choice heavy cattle are quotable from s4.iniui.i; good to choice light cattle, n.nniM .na: common grades of all weights sell from $3.00 down. Representative sales: lih.fc.if SittlUtS.

CAi-. vta. 1 100 6 00 1 125 6 75 HOGS There was auout a normal Sat urday's run of hogs here today, but as re ports from otner points were very bearish, Chicago being quoted about a dime lower, the market here eased off to some extent. At the opening the decline amounted to 6'a7c, but later on tho market weakened a little more, so nun me general mai'Kci could be 1 be described by calling it 0WI00 lower, or generally 7c lower. The long string went at $5.20, with a few hogs at $6.17 and some of the choicer loaus at $6 22. As high as $5.25 was paid for choice hogs, me Close was rauier siow, witn tne feeling weak, but most everything sold at an early hour. For the ween receipts snow a loss as compared with last week of about 2,50o head, and as compared witn tne same week of last year there is very little change. The market has fluctuated up and down to quite an extent and closing prices are about 6ai0o lower than those in force at the close 01 last weea. nepreseniaiive sales Neve York Mve Mock Mnrket.
