poor flour trad-, poor export thquiry tins
minis up the domeetlc situation. '1 he press
tire was too much and the market de
clined steadily to me below yesterday for
May and c below for July.
Corn was weak througnout the session,
closing more than 1c lower for May. Many
holders weteltiluced to lei go by the con
tinued decline In wheat, and this, with good
weather, which Indicates a larger move
ment, caused the break. There was no Im
provement In the export demand. The fact
that government tlgures tomorrow sre ex
pected to show large teserves contributed
to the weakness.
Oats opened weak and declined further,
loelng c for the day. The movement Is
si IH light and the domestic demand good.
Clearances were FAoi bushels wheat. W,

Kansas City wired: "Corn Is firm and
higher today. Receipts are only about one
fourth what they were last year. The pro.

clean up the greater part of our corn
stocks In a short time."
Joe Jackson of Wrenn Co. Is not so
bearish as he was before wheat broke be
low 8f He says: "The liquidation by the
holders of Mav wheat has been vry se
vere. The result has been that It has put
the Chicago mark"t to alut the cheapest
1n the country, and while the situation
itself does not show any more strength
than It hss the price Is a great deal more
In line with It than It was all through the

CHICAGO, March . 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. The July option ranged between
76o and TTc, and closed with a net loss
of VSlo at 77o. Clearances of wheat and
flour were equa! to 21.tt bu. Exports for
the week, as shown by Bradstreet's, were
equal to 1564.000 bu. Primary recelptg were
4M,0 bu., against 408.000 bu. a year ago.
uinnunnlli. 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. May opened vc to Hfe'vC
lower at 3oaV. declined to 29 He and
closed at the lowest point. Local receipts
; Provisions were quiet and the market wag
steady during the first hour, but broke
later an profit-taking In pork. A closing

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

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.

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

SALE. FULLY PAID, NON-ASSESSABLE.
This romrtny ojvtii njttat patents outright to product an unlimited
heat capable to treat any lew grade ore. 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

half of the receipts changed hands It sud
denly dropped, liuyers all of a sudden
came to the conclusion that they did not
want the boas as. badly as they thought,
so that all of the advance of the morning
was lost. 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.

SHEW There is not verv much to be
said regarding the sheep trade today. 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.

auality of the offerings was only fair

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.
