"Thar was cult a larva liulu at the
tart, says tha Exchange Uraln company a
letter, t)llna; operations prelomlnH ting on
the weakness In Liverpool, which u dua
to free ofTeiinia ot Argentina, sorts, with,
predictions for large world's shipments,
LommlMlon houses were on both aides of
the market, and while fluctuations were
narrow tha local - crowd. Including the
soaJpers, were Inclined to be bullish on the
situation, and there was free covering by
Ihorts. The market quieted down to quite
w "ni, aui mere was some selling on
expectations of a good sized Increase In
the vlatble. Many conservative tieoDle In
the trade were of the opinion that declines
bad guive fir enough and as the winter
wheat plant Is bare of snow a hard freeie
might create sufficient Injury to bring In
damage reports. There are hints of a bet
ter oasn demand.
The bear crowd started In with raldlng
tactics again, at the start on Improved
weather and Increased receipts, but strong
support was extended, commission houses
buying very freely, many- resting orders
being reached In the May and under that
solnt was more than sufficient to absorb
all offerings. Thert was a big trade and It
looks to ua as If stout resistance would be
snown toward all dec Ininar tendencies.
"There waa free selling of May kind by
ocai long-s, commission houses buying,
however, -on resting orders, bus-the market
oia not show much snap and closed eaey,
Primary wheat receipts were 864.000 bu.
and shipments 229.0OO bu. ; against receipts
a year ago of 6&1.0"0 bu. and ahlpments of
7,04) bu. Corn receipts were 744,000 bu. and
nipmenta su, hu.; against receipts a
year ago bf Y&J.OOn bu. and ahlpments of
4,00O bu. Clearances were 4I.'I0U bu
corn, 10,000 bu. oats, and Hour and wheat
anal to 462.0HJ bu.
Liverpool closed 'Qni& lower on wheat
and Vkd lower on corn.
JTroomhall estimates world's wheat shin
ments at H.ISOO.OOO bushels', as compared with
1.112,000 bushels last week and 8,112,000 bush
els last year.
A large export business In wheat and
corn has been closed the last few days,
owing to decline In prices, but the exact
figures are withheld, exporters riot caring
to tell all their business.- It the claims of
ine seaboard are right, sales of wheat In
the last three days are' close to l.onO.OOO
misneis ana corn over w,uno nusneis. That
there Is mors export business on the way
Is evidenced by the enlarged engagements
of ocean room of late, which has taken up
tha surplus tonnage and strengthened

changed. Oats were HQHo lower. Fro
vlsious were from 2Hv higher to 2H&6c
lower.
Sentiment In the wheat pit was bearish
all day, but during the last hour the de
sire to sell became less urgent and the
market became steady. The new low record
mark was touched soon, after the opening
and algo later , In the day. The general
situation showed little change. Weather
conditions were favorable for the move
ttient, the demand tor cash wheat continued
slow, and trade in flour was exceedingly
dull. The market was Influenced at the
opening by lower prices at Livernool and
by liberal receipts In the northwest. letter
the market was bearlshly affected by larga
Erlmary receipts, the total movement today
elng 64,ono bu., as against 663.O0O for the
corresponding day ons year ago. Cash and

ers and shorts ths chief buyers. The mar

to a shade higher at 43c to 4343Hu, sold
Off to 43Ho and closed at 41c. Local ra.
celpts were 88 cars, with two ot contract
grade.
Trading In oats wss fairly active and ths
market was easier necause. of liberal re
ceipts and In sympathy with wheat. Com.

as reported .In this morning. 1 be re
ceipts for the week show a considerable
gain over last week, but are only about on
equality with the corresponding week
a year aga.
The market this week has been In
rather unsatisfactory condition. Unreasotv-
oie warm weather in the east as wen aa
most sections of the west has limited
he consumption of mutton to a very large
extent. The falling off In the deman.l was
It first at the eastern markets which de-
Ined, while the market at this point waa
strengthening up. The result was that
the first of this week the market here was
high, and In anota possibly higher, than
markets farther east. As eastern mar-
els continued to break down packers at
its point naturally took the bear able and
prices since Monday have been steadily
working to a lower basis. As receipts here
sve consisted largely of ewes, they rat
rally have Buffered the most, belt g right
sbc lower than Mondav. On the other
and good lambs, wethers and yearlings
re, as a rule, onlv about IikSIoc lower.
Even after the decline the market as this
point is still high as compared with others.
im V.MII-NSO irovers journal tu -yrw-i-
ay quoted the bulk of the sheep and year-
ngs at that point 2&60 lower than early
the Week with ewes showing about the
am loss, while lambs were quoted 15$2c
Operators on tha market at this and other
selling points are cautioning shippers to

have been very liberal, showing a large

pretty talr shape all the week. In spite of

urmea up unaer tue very gooa buying tie-
inuiiu, out on vveanesuay unaer tne innu

lost, the market for that, day being both
siow ana lower. During the latter half o
ine week prices have gradually firmed up
until at the close they aie buck to where
may were at the close of the week. N
very choice cattle have arrived during the
period under review, but there was a loud
or two good enough to bring $6, which was
tne top price lor tne week
The trade in cows and heifers has been
, characterized by a very excellent demand
tor- the better grades, which have bee
iree sellers an tne week and which on
most days have commanded strong prices,
On the other hand, common to medium
: kinds have been pretty slow sale a good
share of the week and still at the close are
i about as high as they were a week ago,
V eal calves have been In exceptionally
good demand, especially toward the close
of tha week, and In spite of pretty fat
onerings prices nave tended upward, as
high as $ii.oO being paid for the best.
The demand for the better kinds of feed
ers weighing around 800 to 900 pounds has
been especially good all the week and there
have not been enough cattle of that de
scrlptlon to meet the requirements of buy
ers. In consequence of this prices have
been very firm and are, if anything, a
much as 10wl6c higher for the week. On
the other hand, the lighter and commoner
kinds of cattle are not much Wanted, th
trade being rather dull although the do
mand has been sufficient to keep the mod
erate supplies well cleaned up. The favors
ble weatlier for feeding operations, togethe
with the fact that many of the short-fed
cattle being marketed have proven good
money-makera, is evidently stimulating the
demand for cattle suitable to be placed on
