ClnCAQO, May 24. -May wheat today
( rose to within feo of the 31 mark. Nervous
covering of about 400.000 bushels on orders
aid to hava coma largely from St. Louis
Sui up me price nearly 20 a bushel to
'o. The dose was easy at a net gain of
1c. Other months roae. but to a much leaser
degree, and In the end were He to Vitfic

corn a shade to VtlHo up; oats at Wo to
Vc advance and provisions- unchanged
10 umkoioc increased in cost.
A break In tha wheat market at Minna
polls had a god deal to do with causing
-an easy selling here during the last part
of the day. The reason was an unconfirmed
report that a considerable amount of hard
winter wheat would be shipped there from
Chicago. Previous to this the bulls seemed
to have the market here at their mercy. The
May strength had Induced considerable buy.
Ing of other months. The foreign ehui.
were firm and there were reports of crop
losses In Kanea and Nebraska, and of t
probable extremely short yield 4n Oklahoma
and Texas. Profit-taking, though and tho
news from Minneapolis led to a rather
harp set back. Between tha opening and
the close. July ranged from tfQ$7a to
nt wnn lasc saiee ai ir'fcrnMC, a net
' lo of VMVhc. The May option proved more
' stubborn, final sales being at tec, a full
cent advance. ,
Kxport call for deferred shipment
strengthened corn. July fluctuated betwen

named figures, Cash grades were firm. No.

kinaga reports from tha southwest gave
oata quite a bit of firmness Independent of
other grains. High and low points for July
turned out to be 34Vfcc and 34!34VsC, with
tha close m0 net higher at ie.
A healthy cash demnnd hardened the mar
ket for provision. The outcome for pork
waa a rise of 2Ho to IJVu'lio, but in lard

NEW YORK. May a. Various reports of
readjustments of price disturbed specula
tive sentiment and the stock market today
was feverish and lost ground. Announce
ment by the chairman of the Republic Iron
and Steel company that the corporation
would disregard tha official prices, at least
so far as Iron and steel bars are concerned,
on account of price cutting by soma of the
smaller companies, was regarded as the
possible forerunner of a more general
movement.
It has been suggested that certain large
manufacturers would co-operate to main
tain prices of some products and prevent
a general reduction. This view seemed to
be taken by the executive head of the
United States Steel corporation In a state
ment Issued today.
Stocks were under pressure during the
morning, but later th market recovered
slowly.
The losses Were due to a large extent to
short selling, which seemed particularly
large In United States Steel. Some spe
cialties showed pronounced strength.
lloth Western Union and General Electric
reached the highest figures of the lust two
years. American Beet Sugar waa strong
and Underwood Typewriter rose five
points.
June disbursements- of Interest and divi
dends are estimated at $M2,OnO, aa com
pared with $X6.949.0H0 In June of last year.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, $2,602,000. United State bonds were

Xhis means that the good to choice llgnt
Md medium-weight ' cattle, which are in
the best demand, sold early. On the other
hand, heavy cattle were inclined to drag,
and the tendency. If anything, waa a little
lower on that kind of cattle. . .
Oood heifers And good light cows on the
heifer order sold very freely at prices that
were steady with yesterday. Heavy cows,
on the other hand, were slow sale, ths
same as Uiey'were yesterday, and tor ths
two days they are around 6100 lower.
Stockers ouid feeders continue extremely
scarce, the supply consisting only of three
or four loads per day as a general thing.
While the demand is limited. It ts fully
equal to or possibly a little in excess of
the small receipts, so that prices paid are
strong In spite of the fact that the beef
cattle market Is not very encouraging.

SHE.EP Several surprising features were
Involved In sheep and lamb trace. Volume
of supply was normal, but the display had
a better variety than on moat days re
cently. More matured sheep arrived, but
the proportion of lambs, both wooiecj and
shorn, still proved large enough to be In
an easy majority, .logically, the market
was due to weaken, but actually, prices
ranged from steady to a dime higher in
spots. Strength waa oonflned to sheep and
various bands of extra good lamba, oc
casional sales of the latter class ot stock
showing an easier trend. An uneven busi
ness Indicated an uncertain feeling, of
course, but despite this condition, the big
bulk of offerings landed steady to strong.
Twenty-flvs doubles of stock, the entire
recelpta, met with a healthy demand and
cleared readily. At times the call from
buyers waa really active, but the general
inquiry could hardly be labeled urgent.
Classy kinds of lambs erowded high prices
at Chlcsgo, wooled Mexicans selling at
$7.55 and on up aa high aa $7,7027.75. There
were no wcoli-i westerns of eensetjuencs
on sals. Desirable shorn lambs settled In
notches almost 'Identical with those of
yesterday, eight-pound animals with plenty
of quality bringing as much aa $7.00. Oood
spring lambs sold at $7.60.
Matured sheep were usually shorn and
consisted largely of wethers and yearlings.
These olasses ranged at $5.26(6.60 and shorn
ewes passed all recent limits at $4.75. The
sheep trads lately has not been keeping
pace with lamb advances so that any
strength at present Is natural.
