CHICAGO GIIAIN AND PnOVISIONS
Ventures of the TradlnK nnd ClostriE
Prices on Uoard of Trade.
CHICAGO, May 8. Correctly forecast
ing that the government's report on
winter wheat condition today would show
91 per cent or better, traders sold freely
and prices made a. net drop of c to ii
',4c. Corn closed at a net rise of a shade
to K cent; oats were Irregular, a shade
lower to a shade higher and provisions
were unchanged to lSVic up.
When the government's report came at
the close of the wheat market it had
been fully discounted by a heavy selling
movement that had lowered values ma
terially. The official figures 91.9 compared with
91.8 last month, caused no 'surprise. The
domestlo crop situation was the dominant
feature of the market, the trade over
looking the decrease of 40,369,000 bushels
In the world's stpply of wheat during
April, the largest recorded at this season
in, more than thirteen years.
Some strength was displayed by wheat
at the opening because of higher cables,
based on lighter world's shipments and
because of export sales, said to amount
to 650,009 bushels, made at seaboard yesJ
leraay. firmness, nowover, soon gave
way under selling pressure. There were
several slight rallies on covering by
shorts, but In the final hour weakness
again became pronounced, '
Primary receipts of wheat today were
670,000 bushels; last year, 345,000 bushels.
Beabord clearances of wheat and flour
equalled 317,000 bushels.
Strength In southwestern corn markets
was reflected In an upturn here. Light
ness of country offerings Is again be
coming a feature Today's advance wa"s
aided by influential buying. Continued
reports of damage to oats from dry
weather lifted prices, some after an early
decline.
Provisions averaged .slightly higher, but
on account of a 6 per cent decline at the
yards held Tvlthln a very narrow range.
Buying was scattered.
Quotations ranged as follows:

CATTLE Receipts of cattle were light
this morning, only 105 cars being reported
In. The receipts for the four days, how
ever, foot up 17,324 head being the largest
for any similar period since the second
wetk In March nnd much. larger than a
year ago by almost 2,000 head.
Jn spite of tho ract that receipts wero
light genernl conditions governing the
trade wero about as unfavorable as could
well be Imagined. The market at Chi
cago was in vct-y ban simpo lusterday,
prices slumping, badly and the bulk of
beef steers selling around t7.80fi-8.40, or
only about 16o higher than the bulk
brought at this point. Buyers this morn
ing all seemed to feel that they had been
paying too much for their cattle here
as compared to other markets, and ac
cordingly were very slow In starting tl
do bustness. It was very much later
than usual before buyers mado any at
tempt whatever to buy the cattle, waiting.
ti'pureuuy 10 learn more aoout tne con
dition of eastern markets. When they
made any bids at all early they were
very careful to bid low enough so that
there was not much danger ot their get
ting the cattle.
When buyers and clUi-n flnallv ml
down to business the markets on all
kinds of cattle waa fully 10c lower than
yesterday and In many cases more thnn
that. The trade continued slow even at
the deollne and at the time of closlnir
thU report there were still quite a good
many cattle unsold.
It Is very evident that the country Is
getting uneasy and Is rushlns- In Deef
steers more rapidly than the demand calls
for. with the result that the consuming
outlets are, being clogged and prloco
Drorten oown rapioiy. The chief trouble
has been at Chicago, where rece lots have
been considerably larger than the demand
ana tne siump in prices there has carried
down -with It the Missouri river markets.

HOGS With only a moderate run In
sight, lower advices from other iolnts
served the packers as an excuse for tak
ing a little off hog values this morn
ing. The general market was nearly
6 cents lower than yesterday's average,
the long end of the sales being made at
a nickel decline, and while a few loads
sold on the close wure very nearly
steady, there were not enough left to
strengthen the average materially. Ship
per buyers were out In the yards all
morning, but their purchases amounted
to a very small share of th supply, and
as on the previous days of the week,
nearly everything went to the packers.
It was largely an 16.10 market, the bulk
of the sales being m4 at 18.0538.16.
Some real gdod stuff sold as high as
23.20, Just a nickel under yeiterdsy's top.
NVhlle there mere some spots whero the
trade was rather dull. It was on tho
whole an active market, nnd practically
everything had brcn sold by 9.50.
The week s matket lias been very un
ntlsfactory from a seller's standiolnt.
hllp yesterday whs the only day that
the decline amounted to more than a
glckel. the general tiftid of values has
cen lower. On only one day have the
receipts been very heavy, but tho gener
ous runs at other markets and the ab
sence of any shipping li manil have been
the prime causes of the break. For the
four days tliu rteolltie amounts to Just
about 20.', tho bulk today being 8S.05tf8.15,
as compared with 2.,35fl8,3R last Satur
day, and the top 18.20 ns against 28.1 nt
tho rlose of last week TM little spurt
on the close today Is the most strength
that tins been shown at nliy time this
week, and the main feature of tho week's
market has been Its consistent boiirlsh
nesg. The receipt this morning consisted of
about 132 cars, or P.ioo head, carrying thn
otal for the four days up to St,021, This
Is n little over 2,000 larger than for the
same days Inst wrek, but about 6,W)
mailer thnn the same period n year ago.

winter wheat was mado today In the May
crop report of tho crop reporting board,
bureau of statistics, t'nlted States De
partment of Agriculture, Issued at 2 IS
P. m; The report shows the condition on
Mny 1 of winter wheat, rye, meadow
lands and pastures; tho percentage of
uprlng plowing snd spring planting com.
plntod,' the acreage of winter wheat to be
harvested, the, estimated outturn of the
winter wheitt crop nnd the stocks of hay
on farms May 1. The figures are!
Winter Wheat-The avcrftfte condition
of winter wheat on' May 1 was 91.9 per
cent of a norma.!,, compared with 91 6 per
emit on April 1; 87.7 per cent on May 1
1912, and. 85.6 per cent tho average for the
Inst ten yars on May 1.
'Inoreaereln' Apren-e.
The area of winter wheat remaining
on May 1 to be linne'ted was about
So.o-Dt.OOO acres, or l.4l9.noo acres less than
tho area planted last autumn, but 4.S76.WW
nores more than the utra harvested last
year 2iS,571,O00 acres).
The condition on May 1 Is Indtcatlvo ot
a yield per ero of approximately ff.S
bushels, assuming average variations to
prevail thereafter. On the estimated
area to be harvested this would prod.uVo
a final crop of 612,571,000 bushels, com
pared with 399,919,000 bushels In 1912,
430,656,000 bushels In 191), 434.141,000 bush
els Jn 1910 and 417,780,000 bushels In 1309.
The outturn of the crop probably will be
above or below the figures he.ro glvim,
according as the condUlon from May 1
to time of harvst Is hbovo or below tho
average change. ' '' '
