CiicAGo, May 5.—[Speclal Telegram to e Ber. ) —=Tbe taking of the cash wheat and the paying for it by the clique s the topic ihat overshadows all the others in specula- lion now. Traders whose views have been a little upset by this denouement to the May sperations are seeking to belittle the fact, and can easily do it. ‘Ihere were just enough queer incidents to the transfer of this big dlock of property to give gossip an oppor- tunity for all sorts of sensationalism. It is jrue that wheat was not all paid for yester- lay up to 3 o’clock, and it is true that checks sucht to have been around in settlement by 11 o’clcek, and it is true that one or two large nolders were requested by one of the clique houses not to deliver for aday or so. But what did these things mean more than that the payment out of cash to the amount of $5,000,000 1n ehecks, big and little, was a vast andertaking? Oneof the firnis got badly mixed up in the receipts of wheat, but that was not remarkable, either. The receipts were for several million bushels of wheat, and were suflicient in nuinber to make up a dictionary. Kershaw & Co. are credited with taking 4,000,000 bushels of wheat. It is reported on good authority that the firm had 14,000,000 to pay for its wheat, and that tt eun.lw.ucnll{ did not get quite as much as it expected. Maurice Rosenfeld said this morning: “We did nm.u{ 0 put out any receipts at all yesterday. We shall deliver out a little wheat to-day. How much will we pay for and keep? Well, more than a body hias credited us with, so r as I h("\nl. The truth of the matt that the clique now controls the cash wheat. There will undoubtedly be some shifting .nmml. n~ the receipts are sifted out, and to throw the old (ime myster the manipulation, Armour have the cash stuff, a signif haps, and perhaps not. T si kets were more affected to-day than Chi St. Louis wi about a cent a bushel ut the t, and w York and Milwaukes both higher.

Corn again_displayed consi ; ancy in the speculative market. Outside or- ders were larger than for several .is past, and there was a_liberal business done by room traders. Premiums w narrowed down a little, the difference between Muy and June bein cut down to 1xe, and be- tween May and July to 3's@sige.

Prices were quoted b@15¢ lower, Againsome 1538 1b cattle, a large lot sold at $4.85, which certainly seemed low, but the seller would have been glad to take the vrice of yesterday, as he had the cattie all day without getting a buyer into the pen. There were other "lots of cattle, some heavier and some lighter, but all good, which have been in the pens since Saturday without a bid which salesmen felt they could accept, There was as nearly no market for big cattle as was ever known. Prices to-day were lower than last Friday on the most desirable little cattle, while big cattle and rough and thin were 30@{0c lower. ‘There were some large lots of heavy cattle which could not be sola even at a 40c dew{ne, and many were left. It was not uncommon to see fat 950 to 1150 b steers outsell 1400 to 1500 Ib beeves. Some fancy 1169 Ib Nebraska steers sold at $4.85; some 1025 1b steers sold at §4.70, and 964 1b steers sold at $4.50, while there were good 1400 to 1500 1b caftlo that could nat be “sold at §4.50.

FINANCIAL, NEW YORK, May 3.—(Speclal Telegram to the Brk.|—SToCKs.—Stocks opened a shade higber this morning, but almost m- mediately began to decline. Western Union and New England were especially weak, while the trunk lines and grangers were about steady. Fancles were active and In most instances higher, Fort Worth & Den- ver, Colorado coal and cotton seed oil made notable gains and held their advance well. London prices were fractionally higher, but the sentiment of the top of the room traders 'was strongly bearish, There was, however, no great pressure of long stocks. ‘The bulls were inciined to think that in view of the lack of supporting orders, and the persistent hammering by the bears the market had held remarkably well. The fact that little long stock came out on the declines was taken to ndieate that the market was in strong hands and would move up quick when the bulls were ready to give it a lift. It was reported that the Lake Shore's statement for the past year would show a surplus of §2,500,000 above all charges and some favorable developments were predicted in regard to it within a few days. New England sold as low as 55, from which tigure it quickly rallied. The an- nouncement of the decrease of $21,000 in Rock 1sland earnings for the month of April weakened grangers, a break of about 3¢ per cent being scored.
