CHK'AUO, May 18 Wheat prices broke
harply today following a substantial
Duiga earlier In tha session when the May
delivery touched a new high record mark
for .tha season, tl.30 per bushol. At tne
rtose prices were e below yesterday s
final quotations. Corn closed fairly steady,
oats firm and provisions weak.
Tha wheat ' market displayed decided
strength during the first half of the day
and prions advanced more than lc above
the previous close, May Incidentally rising
to tlM. which Is a abova the previous
best mark for tha season, established on
April 15. During tha final half, however,
sentiment became extremely bearish and
prices receded lQm to ZHC from the
high points .of tha day. The July de
livery appeared greatly congested during
tne early trading. A. leading elevator con
cern, as an acil va. bidder tot that aptlin
and tha total purchases credited to that
interest during tne day were estimated at
fully l.ouo.ou) bushels. There was much
coverhtg of short Unas for tha account of
a firm, which went Into hands of a
receiver yesterday. In addition to these
lnfluvnces, the market derived strength
.from an advance of Hdfild st Liverpool,
'.inc. It waa aald. to unfavorable crop reports
frutn Kussla, Oermany and Hungary. Gen
eral rains throughout Kansas and Okla
homa appeared 'to rmva-been Ignored at
the start, but were undoubtedly In
trumentai In a large degree In causing tha
slump late in the day. The range for
July during the day waa $1.13H snd l.lfr
The close wss weak at almost the bottom,
with July at tl.l.t and Muy at ll.284.
Tha strength of waeat. and active de
mand for the July delivery by cash Inter
est Increased bullish sentiment In corn
market early In tha day. In the final hour
trie maraei lost much of Its buoyancv.
During the dsy the July delivery sold
between o and f8jfi?sv. The elose was
about stesdy, with prices lower to He
higher then' the final qflotatlons of tha
pievlous session, July1 being at t8Mjc.
Oats were strong sit dsy, notwithstand
ing the severe break In wheat prices, in
dependent strength developed during the
final half of the session on buying based
on unfavorable crop reports from Ne
braska. The market closed strong, with
prlies 'itsr to higher than yester
day s close.
Provisions wore weak. The close was
i weak at net losses of 7t417c. compared

last night in the
NEW TORK. May 1 -The stock market
today wss almost bare of feature or In
cident. Its action was Inconclusive as an
Indication of financial opinion or specu
lative sentiment. The conviction was verv
general that large speculative commit
ments had been e osed nut of the market
by sslea to take profits. This conviction
left the professions! traders undecided as
to the significance of the fsct. One party
argued that the desire to get sway for
summer trips to Europe and enlov the
profits accrued furnished the motives for
the recent selling and not sny well
grounded distrust of the stsbillfy of the
market. The same party pointed to th
effect of the absorption of these nroflt
taking ssles ss Droof of underlvlns
strength of the situation. This party in
the speculation professed an exDectatlon of
an early resumption of the advance. It
was unusual, however, for urtvlre f.i hut-
stocks on this view of the situation to be
coupied with the addition, "on any con
siderable recession In nrlcea ' na tha
other . side of the argument wss ad
vanced the vulnerability of a market in
which an extensive speculation for a rise

customers this mornlnar
tne opening wss very poor inn tne general
market was slow and sticky. With mod-
erste receipts the Indifferent sttltude or
buying . Interests served Its purpose w.'ll
end In most cases the decline wss right
around litjlfx- on lambs, although on a few
sales, especially of the more trsshy grades,
prices might hsve suffered an even greater
decline. Sheep stuff ruled about stesdy
throughout, but there were not snougrt
ewes or wethers, either shorn or woolea,
to make much of s market. Wooled lambs
ss well were In scsnt supply snd of course
actual tests of -values at tha decline were
Impossible.
This morning's slump Is a reflection of
today s prospects at other markets more
thsn anything else. Advices from Chicago
and one of the principal river markets are
of a discouraging nsture and packers st
this point were not slow In taking advan
tage of the situation.
1 quality of today s arrivals was not
very good on an Average and this feature
served to put an easier tone on values.

CATTLE Receipts ot entile this morning
were very liberal, some 1,600 head heavier
than a week ago, and included a large pro
portion 01 aa good cattle aa have been
thin v.r Ari vires from eastern mar
kets were by no means encouraging, but
the local demands was very good, while
there were several shipping buyers on hand
with liberal orders and the market, opened
not far from steady on the more desirable
grades, both heavy and light. Oh the only
partly tatted cattle bids and sales were
a-pnerallv a shade lower and the trade
slow. As has been the case for some tlms
mil tha rivmnnd was best for the handy,
fight and medium weight beeves, and tnese
were tree sellers rrom suirt. 10 n man. mmu
of the heavier cattle were slow In moving
and prices shaded off a little, although the
decline was not at all serious.
The market for cows and heifers was Just
about steady with yesterday. The supplies
were fairly liberal, out, witn a gooo. ae
msnd from both local butchers and outside
buyers, the movement was brisk from start
to finish with prices generally in yester
day's notches.
There was not a great aeau 01 iciivuj
In stockere and feeders, although for the
most part prices were well sustained for
both heavy and light cattle. The demand,
however, Is not very extensive at this time.
The volume of business was not very large,
but for the most part prices shewed no
particular change.
