A new low record k SV1 I A price for the season was established today lor May wlteat when that opUoirdeclined to 75c At the close the price whs VtU'c bekiw the dual quotations ot Batuiuuy. , Corn Was up hu. Oats gained ta. j?ro Vlalons were 6 to 12c higher. Selling was yrevajent tor the greater part of the day In the wheat pit and the market was weuk. The early weakness In securities In Wall street wa the clilei de pressing Influences, although weather con dition throughout the United States were an Important factor, the mild weather In the southwest being favorable for the grow ing crop- while fair weather In northwest Increased the movement In that section. Receipts at Minneapolis and Duluth were liberal and this added to the weukneos. The weekly statistics were bullish but had. little effect on the majority of the local traders. The world's shipments were al most 1.000.0UO bushels less than had been expected and the amount of breadatutts oil ocean puaeuge decreased 40,uuo against an increase of 1.77.V0OO for the same time lust year. The late strength of corn and oats steadied the wheat market during the last half hour. The close was steady.

Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported receipts of 674 curs against 719 Gars last Week and 623 cars one year ago. The com market was decidedly strung. Short and cajth interests were good buyer all day while at times offorlngs were light. Weekly statistics were favorable to the bulls, the world's shipments being almost l.lMi.OCO bushels leas than last week and the amount un pusauge showed a decrease Of 2.2i.UW bushels. The market closed trong. May corn opened lw higher t 46t!.to 464c, sold on to 4'c ana then advanced to 6Vtu, where It closud. The oca I receipts were IH6 cars with none of Iwntract grade. Oats opened weak but rallied on covering by shorts and closed strong. May oats opened H tf'Wc lower at 3iSc to 39o, ad vanced to 40", and closed 4oc. Local receipts were X care. The early provisions market was weak because of liberal receipts of live bogs. Later the market rallied upon a lively de mand from a local pucker, who was stid to bo covering short sales. At the close May pork was up loc at 1156. l.ard was up 6c, at S9.06. Ribs were lJVte, hlglwr at Sftt74c.

The very violence cf the recovery gave warning of Its unreliable nature and speculative sentiment was qnlte prepared for a check and a reaction today. In fact tne London market had al ready anticipated this course before trai I ig began here and snt over a materially lower range of prices than the closing here. The drop In the open dealings here was wider than anticipated and had t lie effect of reviving some of the excitement which prevailed last week. Rut It appeared that the wilder fluctuations were laigely due to the plunging operations of a professional element which had become habituated to free action by last week's experience. Kf fectlve support appeared in the market and the proceedings then were much quieter and more oiderly, although the renewed weakness of the latter market made the lowest prices of the day. The market con tinued to show the normal effects fallow ing such price contortions as those of last week, that is, It showed the lack of large de mand from shorts which were squeezed Into coveting In Saturday's market and felt the effects of reselling to take profits by those who secured In Thursday's slump or who hnd bought on Friday merely for the purpose of supporting prices and avert ing what threatened to become a disaster to the market. The diminishing activity of the market Indicated the disposition to pause after the severe experience of last week and take stock nf conditions ami of promise before entering again upon large operations In stocks. General Information as to the causes and the sources of the un loading which produced the convulsion In the market Is still largely lucking. Certuln conclusions, however, find warranted ac ceptance. The extent of the liquidation must hnve gone far to cure the trouble, whatever It was. It is taken for granted also that the In vestment demand, uncovered by the extent of the decline, must have largely reduced the floating supply of stocks In the market. Not only was the absorption by private investors very large, but investment Insti tutions are believed to have taken advan tage of the opportunity to extend their holdings of securities at an attractive rate of returns. Confidence Is felt also thnt the reduction of credits effected will afford available resources for the better digestion of some of the new capital Issues, which nua necome a glut In the market, obstruct ing Its channels against the movement of other desired Issues. 1 he money market thm-hi Via the passing of the March 16 settlements and ii greater ease conduced to recovery in foreign exchange.

Good fat steers were in fair demand and the market on anything of that uescrlpliou was generally steady with last weeks close. Oood steers, however, were In very light supply, the most of the offerings being on the common to medium order. The Inferior kinds were slow throughout the day, with the tendency of prices down ward. Strictly good cows and heifers were also steady and In fuir demand at laat week's closing prices. Inferior and common grades on the other band were Blow and dull throughout the session, with prices gener ally a little lower. What few Blockers and feeders there were met with pretty fair sale at good Bteady prices. Feeder buyers helped out a good deal on the warmed-up cattle, taking u good muny that otherwise would have had to go to the killers at less money.
