CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Feat a res of the Trading; and Closluc
Prices on the Board of Trade.
CHICAGO. May 24. Suspicion seised
many people today that the principal May
and September longs in wheat had been
unloading. -It 'la certain that the market
weakened tinder general selling for the
new crop- months, particularly July. Im
proving crop prospects, domeatio and for
emu, poor milling demand, and weak Euro
jjcan quotation all contributed to the bear
iBhness of the situation. The close was
easy with prices showing a net loss of
UV'Ac. ' The corn finished MilWVic down and
outs ff4o to He. Provisions scored a de-
ollna of 20ffl30o.. . . .
' There was a popular theory arioat at tne
' outset that the wheat market was en
titled to some recovery because of the
sharp declines) of the last few -days. On
such a belief some fairly good buying was
dond, but an' abundanoe Of wheat came on
the market. Brokerage - firms executed
orders In 125.004 buHhel lines of July and
HeptemOer. AH bullish news was thrown
to the winds, the trade busying Itself fol
lowing the big selling orders. Rallies were
feeble and - were due mainly to covering
by shorts from time to time. .
The best and quickest of the reactions
resulted frptn the purchase of about 1,000,
000 bushels' la practically one lot lata In
the session.' Gossip credited much of the
. heavy selling .to a big southwestern long.
Information was circulated that another
cargo of 240,000 bushels of Duluth wheat
had been nought to come here for delivery
011 May., oqntraote. This steamer is now
cn route. and will bring a cargo of 60,000
bu. to add . to the local contract stock,
' which Increased SM8.000 bushels last week
' and is now virtually 35,000.000 bu. No. 2
.id wlntniv to arrive, either the first or
SUie , last .half of . July, was offered here
' today from Illinois. Reports came from
Oklahoma that only two weeks more were
needed to mature crops there. The world's
available supply was shown to be more
than 27000.004,. bu. greater than a year ago.
Fluctuations In the price of the (September
' delivery ranged from SHis96ttc to 9Mto, with
the close at D7V40, a net decline of Tfco.
Corn weakened on the fine growing
' weather, tncteaslng offerings from the ln
1 terlor and-the poor shipping demand. Sep
tember, varied fiom NHi&Wsc to WSo, and
. closed easy . at Wc, a loss of lVc. The
cash market was slow. No. 3 yellow closed
at 61c.

NEW YORK. MlV 24 Th. mtr.W m.rL.I
dropped back Into a stagnant state today
11 eunirasv wun ins comparative animation
f the dav before. The a-lllnc tnrtnv m

prominent at times in the speculation was
mi on as an indication they had been
leaning up accounts yesterday oreosrstorv
to this departure. The selling pressure
as no longer In evidence today and the
Upply of Stocks for sale whs inurh rilmln.
lshed. Uncovered shorts had to advance
bids to get storks. The tactics of the room
traders to move prices made up tne day's
market almost altogether.'
The course of the international tirhimt
afforded some relief from the feeling on
nui account yesterday. The reaction in
he Sterling exchange rate In Paris was
even more violent than the abrupt ad-
ance ot yesterday and In New York there
was a reaction also, which was much
more moderate. The nrlvate discount rats
In London at the same time relaxed. The
belief was strengthened that this move
ment was associated with some of the
government loan operations recently In
progress in tne pans market ana pos-
miy, also, with the closing of the bank
ers' agreement in Paris reaardlna the
Chinese railroad loan.
Uetalla were still lacklna of the Discing
of American bond issues In France and
or any active steps In renewal of the pro
ject to secure admission of United States
steel to the list of the Paris Bourse. Both
uDjecta were further discussed and helped
to the firmer tone of stocks. The ap
proach of a London stock market settle
ment was a repressive Influence In that
market and by reflection In this market,
the money market showed sn arrest with
out any marked change In conditions
More remote reoulrements came Into con
sideration In the canvass of the coming
crop movement. The cautious policy now
pursued by the Bank of England, It is
believed, may have in view these ultimate
needs.
Reports that banks In this country are
reducing their loan accounts with the
marketing of commodities which had been
held back and also on account of land pur
chases are received with avowed satis
faction among New York bankers. The
cautious feeling on the outlook finds ex
pression in the discussion of United States
reasury finances and the possibility tnat
they may require a call on the national
banks for return ot some- part of the gov
ernment deposits now held. The decline
in customs reoelpts, while conaucing to
this need, have another side In the indi
cation they afford of a decline In the ab
normal vote of the country's Imports and
the consequent dislocation of the foreign
trade.
The speculative liquidation proceeded In
both wheat and cotton and the Immediate
weather conditions, which, were consid
ered good, had an Influence in that move
ment. Bunds were steady. Total sales, par
value, $1,105,000.
United States bonds were unchanged on

CATTLH Receipts were liberal today and
the quality of the offerings was about up
to tne general very fair average. Ex
tremely bad reports from yesteraay's late
market at Chicago had a very depressing
Influence on the local trade and an classes
of buvers started out with the intention 01
buying the cattle considerably lower or
letting them alone. First bids were fully
loxa.160 lower than yesterday on the fair to
pretty good cattle, while lt was almost
impossible to get buyers to look, at tne
ordinary light and medium weight steers.
Eastern beef markets have been very bad
for several days and this Is given as the
oausa for the nresent decided Slump in
values. Strictly choice heavy beeves are
perhaps not a great deal lower, as they
are very scarce, while light and medium
weight cattle are J6fc36c lower than they
were a week ago ana hard to sell at tnat.
Up unUl a late hour In the forenoon only
a small proportion of the offerings had
changed hands and the tone to tne trade
was very weak.
Hnnniia of enwa and heifers were com'
paranvely small, but there were enougn
on sale, however, to enable buyers to
cheapen up, and the bulk of the stuff
changed hands at prices weak to 100 lower
than yesterday. Veal calves were In very
fair request and quotably steady, but it
took shaded prices to move buns, stags
and rough stock generally.
A little better reeling prevailed In tne
slocker and .feeder trade this morning, as
supplies were not very large and the recnl
heavy decline In values has stimulated the
demand somewhat. Light stuff generally
sold a shade better than yesterday, while
tho general run ot medium and pialn qual
ity steers and heifers went at about steady

HOGS Under the double influence of
heavy receipts and a slight decline In the
list ot provisions this morning, the bulk
of hogs sold about a nickel lower than
yesterday. Opening sales of lights and
meulum butchers were pretty close to
steady in both divisions, hut the market
gradually weakened until the close, when
ijlOo lower f mures prevailed, a good share
ot the heavy hogs selling on that basis.
Packers brought freely from the start,
and with good quality as an inducement, a
very fair clearance was made before noon.
Shippers picked up a few loads of light
and medium weight grades for outside
orders, but their total purchases were
relatively light and did not interest killers
In a competitive sense.
A considerable portion of the supply went
at $9.86tr9.40, as compared with yesterday's
bulk of $.iOti9.15. Oood light hogs sold up
as high as 1.160, the best price paid yester
day. No.

SHEEP A much better feeling prevailed
In the sheep barn this morning, and while
the demand was not especially broad, there
was g greater degree of activity to the
trade snd anything fit to kill sold In very
good Season. Supply wss limited, the run
consisting largely of shorn lamhs. Some
very promising dressers were Included In
receipts, the MoCullough Mexicans going
at 38 60, only a nickel less than the mme
class of stock brought last Thursday, An
other shipment of shorn Mexicans went at
88 3trHS.S3, the same as yesterday. Hulk of
offerings Sold on a quotably sleadv basis,
tne better grades meeting wiin tne more
active demand.
There were not enough ewes and wethers
on sal to afford anything like a broad test
of values In this branch or tne trncto; in
fact, the proportion of sheep has been very
limited on most days lately, fortunately.
there Is little Imiuiry for big muttons at
his time of the year, and scant receipts
are easily large enough to satisfy demand.
Uuotations on shorn stock: uood to
choice lambs, 37.8"es 60; fair to good lamhs,
86.80ir7.86; good to choice wethers, 6.(ih?j

ST. LOUIS. May $4 The reformation of
law breakers, supervision of poor houset
and eleemosynary Institutions and public
health were the themes discussed at the
sectional meetings of the National Confer
ence of Charities and Corrections thlt
morning.
Clifford W. Deers, executive secretary ot
the Connecticut Society for Mental
Higlene, promulgated his new program In (
relation to tho treatment ot Insanity. II
proposes a system of social service 'n
asylums and a campaign ot education for
the general public to the end that the
stigma of having suffered from Insanity
may be removed from the popular mind. 1
I'osninerrlal Bodies and Charity
The responsibility f the central commer
cial organtxation ot a city and Its relation
to the standards ot charity work done In
that community were pointed out by How-
ard Strong, assistant secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce ot Cleveland, O.
The Cleveland Chamber of Commerce,"
said Mr. Strong, "Is concerned with every
movement for the belterment of Cleve-
land, for the uplift of Its cltlxens from 4V
commercial, civic or social standpoint, and
It Is, therefore, as much a chamber of cltl
xens as it Is a chamber of commerce. The
chamber has In Its relation to the charity
of the city assumed as a fundamental prin
ciple that tho charity which receives Its
support from the public Is In a sense a
publlo Institution, and that the public has
a right, therefore, to know Its methods
