CHICAGO. March It. Wheat prices ad
vanced more than 2e per bushel on the
Hoard of Trade today owing to bullish
newa from Argentina and to brisk export
business at the seaboard. At the cloae
prices showed net gains for the day of
J HUH fee to tHViltr. Corn and outs
closed firm, but provisions were steady.
Half of the day's gain In wheat prices
was made on Initial transections, opening
quotations between He to lc above the
close of the previous session. May
opened at 31-16H ta ll.Hfe and Jul at
tl.OIH to $1.0414. Demand was general
at the start owing to an advance of td
to lSd at Liverpool, which was largely
due to a decrease of nearly 2,000.000
bushels In the Argentina visibly supply
and to smaller exports for the week from
that country than bad been predicted.
Bull leaders gave the market active sup
port during the greater part of the day
and thla led to free covering by shorts In
general. Reports of damage to the
French crop, claims that the Balkan situa
tion Is again becoming acute and re
port alleging enormous export sales from
this country were factors that further
strengthened the market lata In the ses
sion. Rumors were current In the pit
that the export business today at New
York would aggregate more than loo
boatloads, but a message from a reliable
house there declared that It would ,i,.
exceed thirty boatloads. Sentiment lu tne
pit waa extremely bullish the final hour
and prices advanced rapidly. The top
for May as 1.17"4. July advanced to
31064. The market cloaed excited and
atrong, with prices st the top for May
and a ahade below for July, the latter
closing at 11.06 V.
The corn market was dull all dav.
The market closed firm, with prices up
Sc to H0Hc compared with the pre

NEW YORK. March II. The rather
almie drift of prices of stocks turned
upwards todsy after an uncertain period
of backing and filling. Dealings ex
panded also slightly over yesterday's low
level for the year. The meager specula
tion centered In Reading and wss based
apparently on the labor outlook.
Th rejection by the miners' represen
tatives of the counter proposition of the
anthracite operator is accepted with pro
fessed equanimity by holders of Reading
stock. The prospect of a shutdown cf
mining operations seems to he regarded
not unfavorably as giving opportunity to
dlxpoae of an accumulated surplus of
coal and to reduce the interest ohargea
for carrying this surplus. This la an ar
gument advanced by buyers of the stock.
There Is an undercurrent of belief tnat
there wilt be no strike and this alan la a
factor In modifying the Influence of the
news from the conference. Some of the
buying of Reading was supposed to come
from uncovered spots. The movement in
the general list wss little more than one
of sympathy with that In Reading. There
is some ft-sr that the tariff bill, when It
comes from the committee next week,
may contain some surprises that will
prove disagreeable to those Interested In
some of the Industrie affected. The broad
Intimation of a probable abolition of the
duty on Iron ore weakened the certifi
cate of participation in the Iron and ore
properties of the Great Northern railway
today.
Estimates of the week's currency
movement were followed by languid Inter
est In view of the continued pressure of
funda for lending. The price of copper
was marked down again at the New
York Metal exchange and receded also
In the London market. The foreign mar
kets reported dull trading as well a
here, but some sensitiveness to rumors
regarding the Balkan situation Is manl
feted. The rebound In Erie on the de
nial of yesterday rumors of a receiver
ship was followed by moderate trength
of stocks.
Bonds were steady, total sales, rsr
value. 12.750.000. United Statea 2s.

week to date sb.wj neaa. ine largest ror
five days in a long time back and larger
than a year ago by almost 6,000 head.
After the sharp decline of the last two
days sellers seemed to feel that a reaction
vii due. and as aavices rrora otner sell
ing points were generally favorable, they
were able to force a substantial advance.
The market opened witii noga selling 64
100 higher, mostlv f.oc higher, but the
trade was at no time very active, parsers
being none too anxious to put on, while
salesmen were determined to siuees every
nlokle possible out of ths market. Still,
th hogs kept selling and th greater part
of ths early receipta changed hands In

fclit.fcl'-l::; sheep market this week had
been very llberali) supplied and selling
conditions during ins first tnree day were
fairly good, ao that the market showed
comparatively Ultie change. Conditions at
eastern points, however, Uave been get
ting more unsatisfactory every day, until
yesterday the reports were exceedingly
bad. The break In mutton prices naturally
extended to live sheep and lambs and ths
market here yesterday eaaed off, being
? noted anywhere from almost steady to
ully 10c lower. A report from eaatern
point were atlll unfavorable thla morn
ing, th weakness developed yesterday wss
continued today. Thus It happened that
with quite moderate receipt tnis morning
th market opened extremely slow and
dulL In fact, practically no business what
ever wa done until considerably after
the middle ot the forenoon, when receipt
of that slse would ordinarily all be dis
posed of. Buyers seemed to be uncertain
as to what move to make and they ac
cordingly did comparatively little all the
morning, putting In their time waiting for
order or for more Information.
The quality of th receipts wa very
good, there being a number of load of
desirable killers, both sheep and lambs.
When buyers finally got ready to do busi
ness the market was lOguSo lower and
active enough to clean up about everything
in sight In a short time. Good Mexican
lambe. the kind that sold a few days ago
at 37.46, brought 37.30. There were no good
light yearlings, but heavy welghtA sold at
