Lower cables and liberal northwestern receipts caused " a weak mark-it for wheat here, today. At the close thi May option was off SHc. Corn was down Vc Oats were down lo. Provisions were unchanged to 10o lower. The wheat market opened weak on rather free selling by commission HOU'scs, which was 'based on lower cables, world's ship ments, larger than for the same week last year, and liberal northwest receipts. The alight decline lu prices, however. Induced active covering by shorts, which resulted , In a firm market. Within a short time, however, the market again became weak on renewed selling by commission houses and on protU-taklng by longs. This last selling movement had Its Inception In the visible supply statistics, which showed an i increase of 1.S71.0U0 bushels. Sentiment con tinued bearish for the remainder of the day. Reports of damage to the fall sowa crop was the chief encouragement of the bulls and advices from the southwest claiming that the "green bug" Is doing con siderable Injury to winter wheat in Texas. Oklahoma and Indian Territory. The mar ket closed weak. May opened Mi-'-sC to rt lower, at 75il75s4c to 75c. sold up to 7Hc ' and then declined to 75"Si'tt75MiC. The close waa at 75c.

Duluth and Chicago reported receipts of 807 cars, ngalnxt &sH cars last week and 531 cars one year ago. The corn market was firm early in the day on buying by rash Interests and com mission houses. Cables were firm and lo cal receipts much less than had been estl- ' mated. Late In the session the market waa weak In sympathy with wheat and the close was weHk. May corn opened VitfWe, lower to a shade higher, at 46V4(;74c, sold between 4tVc and 47tt47Hc and closed at 4(iUU4)Sc Local receipts were 457 cara with none of contract grade. Oats were weak at the opening under liquidation by outside holders. The sell ing became more general aa trading ad vanced end prices broke shHrply. The weakness of wheat had some effect on the n'arket, but aside from the fenr of an In crease In receipts In the near future there Seemed to be nothing of a definite charac- .' ter to Inspire the selling. The market closed weak with prices close to the low est point. May oata opened a shade to ic lower to 41'.fi41Si0 to 41c, sold at 41io and then declined to toVifiloV:. The close whs at 404c.

HILLS AND HARRIMANS LEAD DROP Attack of Organised Bear Party a ail Decrease la Railroad F.aralng . . and High Rales for New Cap ital Swppoaed Cause. NEW YORK, March 4.-Prlce broke with violence In the later dealings In the stock market today and the mat set gave every appearance of wholesale liquidation being in lorce. The early action of the market gave aa Impression of bear attack. There was a moment of strength In a few issues at the opening and there were points of resistance In the early decline, but th whole list waa swept Into tne downward movement and the decline gained Impetus as the futility of efforts at support was perceived and stop-loss orders were un covered on the decline. The supposition gained ground quickly that there waa some large liquidation of what are called Investment holdings going on. These reports caused a gloomy feeling over the whole Industrial and business out look. They were accompanied by some rumors calculated to deepen the gloomy feeling, but which were without confirma tion. For Instance, It was affirmed that efforts were being made to secure the can cellation of some of the orders on the books of the United States Steel corpora tion for future delivery owing to disin clination of the contractors to accept the deliveries. It was asserted also that the Pennsylvania railroad waa seeking to abro gate some of its orders for freight cars, prompted by a revised view of the outlook for traffic. Thcae reports 'were without confirmation upon Inquiry In official quar ters. It was heralded abroad, on the other hand, that a powerful bear party had been formed in the speculation, made up of men previously influential In the steel and allied Industries. The supposition of this leadership Induced some large following on the selling side. The earliest show of pro nounced weakness was In the Hill stocks, with the Harrtman stocks In company. The rapid downward course of these stocks gave rise to talk of liquidation of Ilaril tnan holdings of the Hill stocks and of market reprisals for grievances believed to grow out of the Harrlmnn Investigation or of some of the Information furnished for the purposes of that investigation. An other source of weakness was the alleged needs of various corporations for new capi tal and the high rates they would be ob liged to pay for It. Reports of net earn ings of railroads for January coming to hand showed the Inroads resulting from the increase In wages that went into ef fect on January 1. This fact of the grow ing cost of operations of railroads and the difficulty of securing capital for the better ments which alone would avail to Increas ing cost brought Into consideration natu rally the Integrity of dividends. A number of preferred stocks on which the dividends have a comparatively narrow surplus of earnings to depend made precipitate de clines on comparatively light dealings. The cumulative effect of these considerations and the growing weakness had a demoral ising effect on the market and the fall be came rapid. The early resistance waa In the department of specialties for the most part amongst the Industrials. Reading wax strong and seemed to be accumulated with persistence Into the afternoon. The Cop pers and United States Bteel also were late In yielding. Ixmdon sent higher prices at the opening, prompted by a favoranle view of the pass age of the Aldrtch currency bill. This seemed to be without effect In this market. Ijirge coming shipments of gold from the Bank of England to Brazil were reported. Some uneasiness over the Industrial outlook was reported from Berlin. Money here drew easier on call with the progress of the liquidation, but time loans were strongly held. The Saturday bank, statement was believed to indicate a shift In the currency movement In favor of the Interior. The closing tone was feverish and unsettled and the rally, due to covering of shorts, waa poorly held. Bonds were weak. Total sales, par value, 31.714,000. United State bonds were un changed on call. The following was the range of prices on the New York Stock exchange: Bain. Hlitl. Low. ClnM. at W Americans opened steady on the New York bank stntmen, being better than expecti'd.

As a re sult they started out generally pricing their holdings considerably nigner man on rn- day of las', week. On the other hand, buy ers did not seem to feel at all Inclined tn put on anything, so that the market waa alow from start to finish at no more than steady prices. Cows and heifers were no better than steady and the trade was rather dull. The fact that tnere were several buyers ior Chicago packing house In the yards last week and they were all ot them comment ing openly on the fact that cow stuff was selling within loc of Chicago's prices had a weakening effect upon local buyers. As a result they were unwilling to pay better than steady prices. There were no stockers or feeders of con sequence In the yards, but such as there were sold at what looked like good, strong prices.
