Prices on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO. March 2 Uneasy shorts In a
scramble to buy wheat forced prices up
most of tha time today. There was also
considerable bull campaigning; by a nutn
ber of large traders. Chief help came from
a statement that only 8.800,000 buithels re
mained at present In the hands of Cana
dian farmers. Closing prices were easy,
however, at a net advance of V4o to He
Latest figures showed corn to a
above last night, oats off a shade to '.c
and hog products at lCtf12o to 464c47c
decline.
Speculative buying of wheat was almost
entirely on local account. There was
much taking of profit 'by longs during the
swells. Not a little selling was done, too,
by a few big shorts who appeared anxious
to reinstate lines previously covered. Ini
tial Impetus for an upturn developed from
the fact that Argentina shipments were
unexpectedly light, but an offset arrived
later in news that forwardlngs from India
had been greatly augumented. Part of the
setback due to a shutdown by a large
local flour mill. During the session, May
fluctuated between tftVtC and 0c, with
last sales VtfSo up at 896!c.
Liberal export clearances mad com

moderate. May ranged from 47V,477c. to

Cash corn was strung. No. 2 yellow fin

Despite a bulge that oats displayed In
common with other grains the feeling in
the end was tame. May varied inside of
3oo and amo, with the close a shade
down at SO-l.ffiWic.
An array of bearish news confronted
dealers In provisions. Prices sagged badly

NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS
Sharp Declines Kesult from Heavy
Selling; in Active Issues.
NERVOUSNESS AS TO OUTLOOK
Aril Ices that F.mtra session of ( on
areas Is Ierinltely Km peeled at
Washlnarton t anaea Kear of
Tariff Legislation.
NKVV YORK. March 2 Sharp declines
among stocks more commonly traded In
resulted from heavy selling today on the
Stock exchange. The prominent Issues lost
from 1 to 3 points and almost all of them
fell below the low level established last
Friday.
The market opened weak and sold off In
the first hour. In the afternoon the sell
ing movement was extended and there was
a further break. The market grew fevpr
Ish and fell off steadily to the close, which
was at almost the lowest prices of the
day.
Liquidation ot long stocks was In part
responsible for the downward movement,
although short selling reached large pro
portions and was a potent factor. Stocks
showed little evidence of support.
Nervousness as to the outcome for the
near future was apparent In the growth
of the bearish feeling. Advices that an
extra session of congress was definitely
expected at Washington, already the most
disturbing clement, served to increase ap
prehensions of tariff legislation.
The day was not without good news.
The announcement by the head of the Har
rlman lines that double tracking of those
roads was to proceed regardless of the
freight rates decision was followed by a
statement of the Krie directors' intention
to expend all surplus of the year over
the fixed charges tor improvements.
London was again a heavy seller of our
stocks here and total sales from that cen
ter in this market thus far this week are
believed to approximate ti,O00 shares.
Hoods were heavy. Total sales, par value,
:!.t4,00. I'nlted States 4s declined on
call.
Number of sales and leading quotations
on stocks were as follows:

CATTLE For a Thursday receipts of cat
tle were quite liberal, but not so large as a
week at;o, and the total for the four days
showed a falling off of slightly over l.tmo
head, as compared with the same days last
week, and a loss of about 3.000 head as
compared with a year ago. The quality of
the cattle here today was very good, that
is. there were several bunches of better
cattle than have been coming of late.
There was a fair demand for beef steers,
but the market was not so brisk as yes
terday, and about all that could be said of
It would be to call It as steady with yes
terday, although here and there It was
possible to find a salesman who thought
that he had secured stronger prices. The
quality of the cattle being pretty good, the
top sales show up a great deal better than
anything of late. Thus the best cattle here
wlhch were prime, sold up to $6.40, the
highest price paid on tuts market since
January, when $6.40 was paid.
Cows ana belters were good sellers at
generally steady prices. Still the market,
as was the case with beef steers, was de
ficient In snap and activity, the cattle not
selling as readily as yesterday.
Stockers and feeder did not show any
material chango, the offerings generally
selling in about the same notches as yes
terday. It might be added that the market on kill
ing cattle Is generally 16(&25c higher than
the low point last week.
Quotations on cattle: Uood to choice beef

$5.656.00; common to fair beef steers, $5.00

Representative sales:
BEEF STEERS.
tinned strength being due to a limited sup
ply snd a broadening consumptive demand
in the enst. Right around twenty-four
doubles of stock arrived, bulk consisting
of offerings on the mutton order. In a gen
eral way this class of stock ruled 11j16c
higher, but trade whs more or less uneven
and occasional sales were hardly better
thiin strong to a dime higher.
Ewes brought as much as $4.2.r4t4 35. Tho
latter price It will be noted. Is only a nickel
less than February s top on strlnns of this
description. Straight shipments of wethers
were very scarce but cult offs from year
lings made a creditable top of $1.50. Year
lings, choice and rather light, sold us
high as $5.25. good grades moving at V'15
and less. Demand from packers was
lively from start to finish and clearance
was early and complete.
I .a nibs found a ready outlet, but there
was no appreciable improvement In the
scale of valuea. Firm figures bought
the big ends of small receipts, good to
choice kinds going at $5.r5.95. Animals
suitable for final finish nnd shearing
held at normal margins under desiralilo
killers.
Barring Monday's weakness, the market
for sheep on all days this week has been
stronger. Current quotations on ewes,
wethers and yearlings show net advances
of 1525c as compared with prices at last
week's close. Lambs have been crowding
eastern levels, however, and while the
demand has been ample, prices show little
change.
Quotations on sheep and lambs: Good

lambs. $5.35'in.R5; handv weight vearlings.

ii'MiiiilTlis market for hogs opened with
a strong trend on lights, many bacon loads
selling fully as high a the same class of
stock sold at yesterday's best time. From
levels steady to a little higher, trad
gradually weakened until late prices aver
aged cot yesterday. Movement early was
fairly active, but dullness accompanied
weaknesa and toward the extreme close
there waa little or no demand for offerings
of any description.
Total receipts were of very fair volume
and reasonably good quality, bulk con
sisting of butcher weights. Shipping and
apeculatlve orders called for about 10 per
cent of supply, a purchase that afforded
but frail support to trade as a whole.
Long string ranged from to to $7.06,
packers' droves shotting uneven cost. Mest
lights sold ss high aa $7 10, which price
waa also yesterday's top. Current salea are
right around 6ol5c lower than those of
laat Saturday, heavlea showing the full
decline aa a rule.

W, C. Sunderland Is home from a aix
weeks' voyage among the West Indlea and
along the coast of South America. He
says he has bad enough of .travel for the
present, but that the call to go to orae
out-of-the-way part of the world comes
when least expected.
On the trip south he stopped at Havana,
Porto Rico, Jamaica, Trinidad and
Veneruela. Returning he crossed the Isth
mus of Panama from Colon to Panama and
saw the entire length of the Panama canal,
nearing completion. He was on a special
train that stopped at all Interesting points
along the big ditch. The big locks, he
says, are practically compieicu. niv

The death rate there is less than ln most
of our cities. A ceaseless warfare Is

streams are flooded with petroleum.

Phjslcians and surgeons of this neighbor
hood met at Sacred Heart hospital Tues
day night at the Invitation of the Bene
dictine Sisters to Inspect some designs for
the proposed new hospital to be erected
on Mount Marty. The visitors were sur
prised to find the designs of great beauty,
in early English gothlc. If constructed as
planned the building will easily be the peer
of anything In the whole west and the
commanding site will add much to the
effect. The work Is only at a very pre
liminary Ktage. but the design submitted
shows a frontage ot 22U feet, wings ot
eighty feet and five stories In height, with
a handsome tower 125 feet In height. The
Interior design la also excellent. The est!
mated cost Is $200,000, most of which will
be raised by subscription and bonds.
