Wheat prices here today scored a new low record market for the crop, the May delivery at one time sell ing at 7te per bu. Favorable weather in the southwest and bearish foreign advices ' were responsible for the weakness. At the close the May option showed a net loss of lc. Corn was down Walc Oata were off HS-p. Provisions were 2fff-ii lower. The opening In tbe wheat market was ex tremely weak and Initial quotations showed sharp losses, the May option being down S'J-c to lmlHc at 7bV8iiT,c For a tune there waa general selling and about the only buying was In the nature of covering by shorts. News of the day was favorable lo the bears. Weather in the American southwest waa again highly favorable for the fall-sown crop and Liverpool cables were lower. These were the principal In fluences that weakened the market. There were several slight rallies during the day. rut each upturn Increased selling by local bears and prices quickly eased oft again. The market, however, became much stead ier In the last hour of trading. For May the lowest point of the day was reached at 7tic. The close was steady with May at 7HVa7me.

Duluth and Chicago reported , receipts of 43i cars, against 3u3 cars laat week and 236 cart a year ago. . Despite small local receipts and firm ca hlea the corn market was weak. The slump In wheat and a decline of to lc In the price of cash corn affected the mar ket In about equal degrees. The greatest ukn.M of the dav waa shown during the latter part of the session, when prominent ' local bears aold freely. Offerings were .taken chleflv by shorts and cash houses. The market closed weak, with prices at the tnwe.t noint of the day. May opened tttt 'He lower at 43U4SSC. sold at 4.VS4H and then gradually declined to 4iHo. Final uotatlons were at iZZ2c. Local r oelnts were 140 cara. with J of contraot 'gTade. Tradina in oats was iiuiet and the mar ket weakened In sympathy with other grains. A feature of trading was the chang ing of the May option for the July dellv .rv Tiwar nricea for cash oats had a d pressing effect.

UPWARD MOVEMENT AVERAGES ONE POINT Re-entraace of Professional Onerators Attracts Largta Oatslde Follow leg lose Is Active and Firm. NEW YORK. March B Bi,ecnlulln In the stock mstket took on a considerable egree l animation today, the volume of filings exnaildlns hitbIm in over a million hares. There were manv strlklne mm.. mepts, but the majority of these were In no class or specialties and In stocks which ave neitred In the operations of pools and nder the Influence of rumors and tnvHter. I in the past deallnrs. An unward mov- n-ent of moderate proportions, however, was fairly comprehensive, and exceptions to advances of as much as a point might he more conveniently enumerated than the total list of gains. iierdays vurorous advances and the comparative freed from selling pressure s inose aavances occurred evidently had a convincing; effect on speculative sentiment. no. large professional operations made heir appearance In todav's market. The Identity of operators In some of the most active stocks demonstrated the re.eiitrv Into the market of many SDeculatlve cools. which carried previous movements to a consummation, and were supposed to have disposed of the heavy lines then accumu lated. The concentrated source of much of the buying In highly speculative quar ters would be accepted commonly as evi dence of a rather unsubstantial character in tne operation. But tn the changed mood of the speculative sentiment today It was suspected that the execution of orders through other hands might be designed to conceal more Important operations. This suspicion, although It was purely within ine reaim or surmise, was an Innoortant In fluence, including an outside following for the movement. There was a marked re vival of rumors which have lain dormant as active factors In the market during the reactionary period. The so-called lead merger protect was hroiight forward again Into attention. There were renewed slluslons to the sun- posed Important developments In prospect In the affairs of the Amalgamated Copper company and In the copper lndustrv. A st-nlv of the distribution of the "dav's larsrest denllnrs and of Its widest sd VAPceH will reveal how lnra-e a nnrt Influences of this character nlaved In the day's op erations. The upward rush of five points In Atchison late vesterdav Was a In lire feature In the revival of speculative confi dence, but the backwardnesa of that stock today, under renllzing. had no restraining effect on the advance elsewhere. Yester day's rumors of a decision to Increase the dividend rate were without confirmation, but the fact that nn Issue of over 317.000 000 of convertible bonds Is being offered In the maricet was commented upon ss a srround for advantage from the activity In the stock. Pennsylvania and United States Steel stocks were inclined to be heavy, as those companies are reported to be con templating aririltlonnl band Issues. The Continued decline of foreign exchange kept tip the talk of possible engagements of gold tor import, out no announcements were made. The placing of MOirtOoo of govern ment deposits with the hanks has reduced their week's loss to the sub-treasury to IcW.ono, but the exprexs movement to the Interior apparently has been agilnst New York for the week, so that a cash Increase of only tl.tmo.oou Is Indicated. The week's early liquidation In the stock market Is expected to show a large loan contraction in tomorrow's bank statement. Profit taking made some Impression on the dav's extreme gains, but the market rallied araln and closed active and firm. Bonds were firm. Total sales, nar value. 32 7:16.000.

With gas made from S5 per cent of air heated up to tOO degrees farenhelt and 1 per cent of dis tilled oil, called the wast from oil refineries. Not the raw. crude oil should be considered. This Is not an experi ment, but a cold, proven, practical fact of many years practical experi ment by the Inventor and practical engineer, Charles A. Kuentel. We have started to build our plant at Huena Vista. Colo., upon a complex of land of 120 acres. We will positively smelt ore aa low as $2.00 with large profit, the torn ot one ton will not be over 45 centa to smelt. ' The metal will be refined at our own plant. We will start with one 35 ton smelter, which will be a sapaclty of 210 tons per day. We do not Intend to flood a large amount ot stock for the simple reason, a soon as our first plant Is In operation we will have all mine owners with us and get many times the price for our shares as we offer them now. There Is no doubt that our shares will get up to the price of the Bell telephone sharwn, which were sold nineteen years ago at the same price as we offer ours now. Do not consider this a stock Jobbing schema-: It Is a perfectly legiti mate and practical business proposition. This offer Is only good op t March 20. 1906. Mine owners, or those Interested In mining, can obtain controling Interest with the Inventor by means of a small Investment, and become directors tn the affairs ot the company April 30th, 1906, the next elec tloa.

The bulk cf the hogs sold at fii.lotifrt.lfi. as against fi'i.OTH'ife.lo yesterday. The top today 36.20 was 6c higher than an thing brought yesterday. The market, aa might be Inferred from the above, was something of a disappoint ment. At the opening everything seemed to favor higher prices, but later on when It became known that Chicago, In addition to the 21,000 fresh receipts, had 14.000 car ried over from yesterday, the whole situa tion chanaed. the drop In prices noted above following Immediately. Local re ceipts were so small that this market ordi narily not have been affected, but Chicago, opening higher and then closing off on ac count of the number of hogs on sale, made buyers here very cautious, and hence the tiulckncss with which they lowered their bids when the truth was once known.

The whole story might be summed upJn a very few words there were only a few here, and as buyers all seemed to need a few loads the offerings changed hands early In the morning at steady prices. There was not a single load of choice sheep or lambs In the yards, so that sales do not show up especlully well on paper, some pretty de cent western lambs sold up to 6.60, with ewes ns high as $.i.2!. There were no wethers or yearlings In the yards, at least, none, of any consequence.

The auality of the offerings was only fair mere neuig i.-uinii.iuij - reallv desirable killers. With so few cattle In sight It was not surprising that, the market was lacking in interesting features. Such cattle as puck ers wanted sold In about the same notches as yesterday, although sellers who hap pened to have something that did not seem to tit buyers' orders thought that they were bid, if anything, lower tnan yester day. , , , , Only about niiern maus wi w heifers were on sale, which wus not enough to create much enthusiasm among buyers. Such cattle as there wore sold at about yesterday's prices. Sellers as a rule thought the market steady. There were no freah stockers or feeders, at least none of any consequence, snd the market was wnnoui noicwin-my i-imnge. There was a very fair trade yesterday in stockers and feeders and nuite a start was made toward cleaning up the surplus of light stock cattle, which had been accu mulating In the yards this week. As noted yesterday, the prices on stork cattle are all of 50c lower than last week. Representative aaieB: BEEF BTEERB. IHICAbO LIVE STOCK MARKET Cattle, Sheep and Lambs Steady Hose Kive Oata lllaher.
