Match 29. 1913. 1 here was a bull market In wheat during the morning yesterday, with u decidedly good upturn of i cents for the, late months and U cents .for May from the close Thursday. The Liverpool market did not show the weakness ex pected following the late break In nil markets on this side of the ocean Thurs day, This was very surprising because Aigcntlne shipments were given very supplied fESToutr nearly double thosn of r vear ago. Min neapolis stocks increased 175.0X1 bushels for the week ending today. Duluth In creased 40CUXW bushels. There was no cash business reported In Chicago and the only export trade mentioned In reports were 10.UX) bUshels ot Winnipeg. There was some bullish news with nn "If In It nt times during the session. One feature was tho claim that the lUods mlshi rvilj2i tl.e ln- il'tn-n ure on lowlands if th plant had bei,iin to grow. Another was that thvs twi or threo cold spells over Texas nnd Okla homa the last few days may have done some Injury to tha pl.int. Strength was shown nt Minneapolis when the May price went to Sfic. This encouraged sopw buying in Chicago and Omuha. Tho mar ket appears to be without any decided i tendency at tho present, a little over selling one day followed by a good rally the next. Cash wheat was unchanged. There Is a tired feeling In tho specula tive trade In corn futures. Two or three times yesterday tho May price was ad vanced close to 63Vo and July at one time close to 64?c. Tho trade was extremely dull at the time and tho market was helped by the bull turn, In wheat. Tho cash trade all over the country is par alyzed by the floods, which prevent busi ness with tho cast. Sentiment In tho Chicago trade Is bearish, but there Is a hesitation about pressing tho selling side of the market because on each break of any Importance bull leadership Is felt and sellers aro obliged to cover w'th losses. Cash corn was unchanged to Ho lower. Oats advanced about He yesterday. Argentina shipments of oats for tho week aro a llttlo over 2,000,000 bushels. Ship ping sales In Chicago wore limited to 40,000 bushels. Cash oats were unchanged to Ho lower. Inspection reports for today: WHEAT No. 2 hard. 5 cars in, 1 car out. No. 3, 2 cars in, 1 car out.

March 2 -Favorable weather and reports of the excellent condition or wheal crops in me wiiun belt offset today higher cables nnd fears that damage to the crop In the Ohio and Indiana flood district would bi great. Tho effect was to mnUo the range of prices narrow. The market closed steady, ic lower to 'dc higher. Corn finished with n net cnln of 1-I6C to Uc. oats with a similar net advance and provisions a ! shade lower to 7'ic higher. Reports that flood damage to growing wheat In Ohio. Indiana, Illinois and Ken tucky would be at least 15 per cent caused a good demand at the beginning ot the day nnd the mnrket opened strong and active, but under ready selling soon eased off. Advices that crop conditions In Kansas were never better also helped to check tho bullish tendency as am an- 'orth western road hp.l rnfiisi.il further shipments of wheat for Duluth for tho presvnt as nil available storage room the.ro huf been taken up. Later reports from the flood country aided In keeping the price advance in check, It being held bj some Investiga tors the damage to wheat was confined to narrow strips and was more than counterbalanced hy tho benefit from moisture on the uplands 1'rlnuirv receipts of wheat were R49,iOO bushels against 352,000 bushels last year. Statistics on senboaid clearances of wheat and flour were not completed. Business In corn today was confined Inrgely to local dealers. Though the tone was dull, light shipments kept prices firm. Buying of oats by elevator Inter ests was tho fonture of trading In that ceieal. . After a firmer feeling In proslslons, owing to a light hog run, prices cased off on a lltle liquidation "Artlolei Opeil.l High. I Low. Clos. Yes v. Wheatl May. OOfjTi July.S9HVi Sept.

Murphy Total Mt'J CATTLE Thoro were no cnttle of any consequenco In the yards this morning and the total for tho week foots up only 15,351 head, being slightly smaller than last week and tho smallest of any week foi several months back, as well as smaller than a year ago. At tho samt time receipts havo been plenty large enough to supply the demand. The high water In the east cutting off rallroau communication has made It very diffi cult for packers to forward meat pro duets and still ihore difficult for east ern packing houses to ship live cattle. As a result of this tho msrkt on ull kinds or cattle has experienced n sharp decline during the week, notwith standing the light receipts. At tho close of tho week heavy beef steers aro right around 25c lower, with the lighter weights around 15tl&0o lower Cows and heifers, and In fact all kinds of butcher took shows about the saint decline, being generally 15tf26a lower thun a week ago. Stock cattln nntl foodirs havo not es caped, but have suffered In about tht, same proportion as klllerit. Fir.od conditions in the cast aro sun very bad and It would bo a wlro policy for cattlemont to ship Very lightly until tho eastern railroads ate In condition to du business. Nothing can bo gained by shipping by this market, as all markets of the country' are, ns a matter ot course, suffering from the same cause, Quotations on uaiue:.

HOQS Receipts were rather liberal this morning, but advices from other markets weru of an encouraging nature and me feeling at the local yarda wan better irom tho outset. Shippers and speculators apparently hud good slxed orders and they started out buying light und butchor weight hogs at prices that were any where from strong to 6c higher. Pac eis seemed equully eager for anything on the light order, but mixed and heavy hogs wero in very poor demand and prlcus for this class of stuff were at no tllnu better than steady. Towurds the close prices on all grades weakened and droppad back Into about the same notches as ypHterduy, with the heavy offering possibly a little tower than at yesterday's best time. From start to finish buyers discriminated ugalnst tho heavies upd only bought these grades under protest. Bulk of the hogs sold at $8.80178.90, with good lights up us high as $8.95. Tim movement early was fairly active, but It eascdwoff on the close and It was well alohg Howards noon before the last hogs were disposed of. The market has been rather uneven all week and not much change has been noted In either direction. Heavies havo just about held their own all week, while lights are from 60 to, In tho case of toppy stuff, as much os a dime higher than at the close of last week. On tho whole, values uru a scant nickel highor than last Saturday. Since tho storms of the first of the week the demund has been slacked off. Owing to the fact that r.onu of the eustern roads are maintain ing a service up to the averuse and some of them are almost entirely out ol commission, packers are not tuklng on any surplus supplj, and the demand for live stock has suffered accordingly Today's supply amounted to about 11; cars, or 8.000 head, carrying the week'f total up to 69,618. This Is over 13,000 largut than last week, 4,000 heavlor than two weeks ngo and almost 6,000 more than were received during the corresponding week last year.
