vance, recovering a larae ftrnnnrtkm or
tha Ions of yesterdev. Hhorts. who oversold
yesterday, covered today. The market
howed tha lack of a bull leader or ade
quate volume of speculative business. This
helped to quiet tha fears of tha shorts.
Strength due to the higher English
and French markets, due hugely to cold
weather In both countries, good continental
demand for wheat cargoes and the unex
pected sharp falling oft In Australian ship
ment. Temperatures, west and south
west, were low this mornlm. Claims of
damage are coming already from western
Missouri and eastern Kan sun. alfo some
claims that frost will aarnage wheat on
low lands In Indiana and Ohio, wheia many
thousand acres hav been under water for
three weeks. Trade .has picked up roaterl
ally today.
There was quit general selling of corn
by cash Interests and commission houses,
Influenced by tha cold weather talk and
weak cables. Cash demand has been some,
what poorer, sample cum selling Vi cent
lower. .
The oats market remained steady and
closed about at last night's prices. The
trade In general has not been large. Cash
demand has been good and choice oata In
good demand.

CHICAGO GRAIN AVU PROVISIONS
Features of tha Trading; aad Cloalac
Prices on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, Feb. a A sharp advance In
the price of wheat took place on the local
exchange today as the result of a lively de
mand caused by the forecast of a cold wave
tonight over the spring and winter wheat
bolts. At the close wheat for May de
livery was up c Corn waa off o.
Oata were a shade higher. Provisions were
7Vc to ZLtya higher.
The wheat market opened strong1 on ex
tensive buying by pit traders and shorts
and throughout the entire day sentiment In
the pit continued bullish. The market waa
largely a weather map affair. It waa re
ported from Omaha that sero weather pre
vailed last night throughout Nebraska and
that the growing crop waa unprotected
by snow. Advices from the northwest told
of an almost complete tie up of railroad
trafllo because or a severe Diissaro. in but
ditlon the weather bureau predicted a gen
eral cold wave tonight over the principal
wheat growing; states. The market also
derived strength, from an advance at Liver
pool caused by wet weather In
France and England. Profit-taking sales
constituted the chief selling, there being
only a few sale for short account. The
market closed strong and close to the high
est point of the day. May wheat opened
4lo higher at 7tVs to 7o',4c, advanced to
7so and closed at 7SHo, Clearances of
wheat and flour were equal to 177,000 bu.
Primary receipts were 4i0,000 bu. against
437.000 bu. for the same day last year.
Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported
receipts of 247 cars against 217 care last
week and 290 a year ago.
The cold weather had -an effect on the
corn market opposite to that exerted on
wheat and the market was weak all day.
The drop In temperature it was claimed
will not only Improve the condition of
the new crop but will also harden the
country roads, facilitating an increased
movement. Belling waa general during the
first half of the seislon but later the
strength of wheat restricted offerings. The
market closed easy. May opened un
rliaimml to Wo hither at 4tiSC to 4040. Sold
oft to 46o and sold at 4Wi 46.c. Local re
ceipts we 9 668 car with 11 of contract
grade.
Oats were a trifle easier early In the day
because of selling by local longs. Later
a steadier feeling developed on buying by
pit trader and commission houHes. May
opened unchanged to a shade higher at
Vo, sold between JK-fttfiie and closed at
Vc. Local receipts were lilt car.
The provisions market was strong be
cause of the monthiy statement which
showed greatly diminished stocks on hand.
Commission houses and local packer were
the leading buyer while the selling was
mostly by long. At the close May pork
waa up 2'iHo at 317.40. Lard waa up l&nkj
l&o at 39 8::Vijei.r6. Klb were 7"c higher
at 89 67V,
Estimated receipts for Monday: Wheat,
22 ears; corn, tKsi car; oats, IN cars; hogs,

NEW TORK, Fsb. 2. There was om
contraction of the rate of activity in
stocks today ana resistance to the recent
pressure waa perceptible, but the tone
was feverish and uncertain throughout,
a wa shown by the constant fluctuation
of prices. First prices of the day showed
wide decline from last night and large
offerings of various stocks appeared.
inene mere taken at the low level ana
prices rallied. On subsequent decline the
appearance of buying orders was ef-
lectlve In the same way. This buying
was generally credited to banking Inter
ests, with the purpose of exercising A
benevolent control of the market and of
opposing the raiding tactics pf the bears.
Uncling obstacles of this character 10
their efforts tp get prices lower, the bears
were disposed to cover tneir snorc con
tract. Most of the losses were recov
ered under this process.
The tone of the market oontinuea xever-
Ish up to the closing. The demand did
not folVw up the advances with eager
ness and the market became dull on the
rallies. The day's news offered no new
developments of Importance. The flrt
selling was professedly based to some ex
tent on the serious tone of the public dis
cussion of the relations with Japan. An
unfavorable Impression wss caused by
the lnrge growth of railroad operating
expenses shown by the reports of De
cember earnings, the Increase being sui-
flclent In some case to cause a decline
In the net return compared with last
yesr. A report was current of nn in
tended increase in freight charge by ine
trunk lines In the early future.
The reviews or the mercantile agencies
were scanned for signs of any reactionary
tendency In the business world, but none
such weje repprtcd. Rank clearings for
the week are lower than last year, fol
lowing a tendency manifest for several
weeks risst. The rlecreese Is accounted
or mostly In the New York figures, and
outside the seven principal cities tne
clearings still show a volume, well above
that of last vear. The bank statement
was little regarded, the cash decrease be
ing smaller than was expected and tlie
loan Increase causing no surprise in view
of vesterday' sale of New York City
bonds and subscription during the week
to new stock and note issues. The Bans:
of England was reported to have secured
32.0nn.000 -of gold to arrive from Egypt
on Monday. Foreign exchange, although"
nomlnnl on Saturday, showed a sagging
tendency. Importance is attached to tne
attitude to be taken by the Bank of Eng
land In the event of further demand on
London for gold by New York. Total
alos of bonds, par value. $1, 190. 000.

CATTLE There wa nothing doing In the
cattle yard this morning, for the want of
cattle to sell. The receipt for the week
how a very large Increase over the corre
sponding week of a year ago, but at the
am time they are quite a little smaller
than fur laat week. In other words, the
receipts this week have been very liberal.
The quality of the cattle coming has not
been, very good on an average, in fact
feeder generally nay that ttiey cannot re
member a season when so few reully de
sirable killing cattle were coming to mar
ket as at the present time.
Tha market on beef steer started out the
beginning of the week about steady, but
graauaiiy nrmea up, reing quuieu oigiiei uu
W6dneday. On Friday vaiuee eaised oft
again, bo that at the close ot the week the
market I not quotably different from what
It wa one week ago. Considering the lib
eral receipts, the trade a a whole ha been
In a fairly satisfactory condition. The tact
Is these short-fed or warmed-up steer are
selling to very good advantage and are
generally making the feeder a fair profit.
Cows and helter have experienced about
the same kind of a market sji have beef
steer. During the first half ot Hi week
there wa a general upward tendency, espe
cially on Wtdnesday, but on Friday the
market broke sharply, so that It Is sale
to say that any gain that was made earlier
In the week was lost that day. This leave
th market just about where it ended one
wtek ago.
The week started out with stackers and
feeder in bad shape. Speculator had been
forced to carry some cattle over from the
week before and were naturally poor buy
ers, so that the market was slow and
heavy for tne want of buying support. It
continued that way during the rirst half
ef the week, being decidedly lower than
during the early part of the previous week.
Purlng the latter half of the week the
trade has been In better condition, owing
to the fact that speculator had cleaned
up their surplus caul and were freer
buyer. As there were no oattle here today
and very few yesterday. It is not an easy
matter to make comparisons with a week
ago. The feeling is mat. tne marxei at tne
present time Is in a good healthy condition
and with moderate receipts the coming
week price ought to be entirely satisfac
tory to the selling Intereat.

HOQ8 Hogs sold this morning on A basis
of J6.80 for the general run of mixed loads,
with the lighter and less desirable loads
below that figure, and with good heavy
loads at 86.824 and a few of the beat at
88.85, snd a top of 86.1)74. These figures
were 10o lower than yesterday' early mar
ket, to lower than ytaterday s late market,
or 64j10c lower than yesterday's general
market. Tha market opened very Blow,
Sellers being backward about making a
concession, while buyers were reluctant to
make a start. Whan buyers and sellers
finally get together the market showed
considerable briskness and the bulk of the
hogs soon changed hands. Owing to the
late start, however, it wa close to midday
before a clearance was effected. At the
close It was Impossible to get over Jo.774'rf
8. go for anything.
While the receipt of hog this week have
been quite liberal as compared with a good
many weeks during the last month of two,
the total nevertheless wa decidedly short
pf the record made a year ago by over
it 000 head. The receipts for the year to
date are over 28,000 head short of the cor
responding period last year. The marke
this week opened with a good stiff advance,
over half of which wa lost on Tuesday.
On Wednesday there we no material
change, but Thursday' market advanced
sharply and there was a little further gain
on Friday. Allowing for the decline today,
th market is a good strong It 4c higher
(han It was at the close of last week.

SHEEP Tha market waa bare of aheep
lid morning, there being nothing 00 sau
to make a test of value. As will be noted
from the table la another column, the totl
receipt this week hav been deuldedly
auger tliari lux tl Oo4Tetiti,lliig wo
last rear, although showing a falling alt. a
compared with th excessive run ot last
week. A tiaj been the case for sometime
back the receipt hav consisted largely
of ewe, th progiortio 04 that kind being
larger than ever before. On the otlrer
hand there never ha beetn a time when
there a ere so few yearlings coming to
market as at present. Old wether have
also been In limited supply. The receipt
of lamb have been more liberal, but there
baa not been anything Ilk man lamb
a ewes. .
The eastern mutton tnsrket has bee In
very unaatlafsotory condition all the week.
me suptiiy ot mutton oeing aeciaeniy in
excess of demand, so that values have tSeen
correspondingly weak. This condition at
the eastern consuming point has had the
natural effect of weakening the sheep mar
ket. In spit of this th sheep market at
this point has been In pretty fair condition.
considering the large receipt a There had,
however, been weaker tendency especially
on we and lambs, which at the c loose ?
the week art anywhere rem 6e to 1 lower.
Common to medium kind have suffered
more decline than that Wethers snd
yearlings, owing to the light supply bar
remained just about steady with last week.
While the trade has been slow on some
days and the demand has larked - In
urgency. It has been sufficiently large to
keep the liberal raorlpt well cleaned up at
current price.
The majority of sheep men artlll talk rery
encouragingly regarding the future ef the
market. The general opinion appear to
be so soon as small holder, who .re so
anxloua to unload st present, shslr hav
cleared their feed lota light receipt ar
bound to follow with stronger prices..
It might be added that present price, as
compared with a vear sam are lnajisn lower
on ws. Vxflbc lower on wethera and 26
6ne hi Khar on lamb and l"ffi?0c higher on
yearlings.
