“SYMPTOMS OF SOFTNESS.” Inactive State of the Produce Market On Yesterday's Opening, WAITING NOW FOR THE WEATHER The Cattle Market Stronger—Some Good Sales—Hogs Take a Slight Down Turn—A Very Slow Trade, CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. Cnicaco, May 9.—[Special Telezram to the Bek. )= Lhe opening this morning was Russice off as compared with Saturda close. and the feeling was one of lassitude. The weather was delightful andthe situation ripe for a decline. ‘The local crowd waslong and the first thing done was to untoad. The little clique houses were not on hand to take offerings, and the consequence was that the market betrayed symptoms of “softness.” A tip had gone out on curb that there was going to be a break, but the crowd did not act en masse on the tip as though possessed of the utmost faith in its reliability. ‘T'rans- actlons were light and of a scalp nature, During the long session June ranged be- tween SHasiije and left off at SHasiise. July sold lwl\\wfl i and S e and rested at 84%c. The new crop futures were weak, and suffered declines of fully le. There was e buyine of July and selling of rties who acton’ the theory that the clique ca run a corner in June, and that b 't month preminm over “spreading’” and selling of the new crop options constituted the only” important features of the forenoon trading. ‘There was a weak opening to the market. Corn was in sympathy with wheat and eariy trading was t a small fraction unaer Saturday’s closing. Surprising strength was developed, low- ever, when the visible supply figures came out, a8 they showed a remarkable decrease of ot 4,000,000 bushels. This about 1,500,000 than anybody had counted upon, and ith the light receipts eave the bulls courage. June was advanced from 30'c to 807ce and July from 41'cto 41'4c; rllHllIII 2 closing firmer than e planting season is fully two w earlier than usual this vear and in most conditions the crop is already about put in, Ramn i needed throughout large arcas in the westand fa weather market will in all probability be the result for the next two of three weeks. Oats were weak and featureless, the only show of strength manifested being In sym- pathy with the upturn in corn, Near futures closed 'se off. At 1 o'clock 26!se for May and 27'gc for Juue were the Inuidu unummn established. July closed firm at 2. The first (rlu,'lm( of the season was reported in August_oats, ‘That future sold up from 253 to 26! c and elosed at 26c. In the provision market the day was some- what featureless. her large receipts of hogs coupled with easier prices for the same made traders feel more or less bear- ish at the opening and for lard and short ribs prices averaged a little easier earlier in the day. Later, under more moderate_offerings than was anticipated these articles recovered completely from their weakness, und at 1 o'clock stood prae- tically at Saturday’s final quotations, F! tuations in short ribs were lmited to 2@ ige and in lard to 214 whe. rk was held at $23.50 tor May and June ird sold_moderately at $6.52, but in cash meats the day’s trade was insigniticant.

CuicAao, May 9.—|Special Telegram to the Bee.|—CATTLE—The beef cattle mar- ket to-day was stronger. ‘There were sales which showed no advance, while some handy fat cattle sold 10c higher. The general mar- ket was not particularly active, but the sup- ply being much lighter than expected. the market was stronger all around and there was a good clearance. Some good heavy ex- port cattle sold at §4.50@4.70 and $4.90 was the top for some choice New York cattle. Shipping steers, 1350 to 15001bs, $4.50@4.90; 1200 to 1350 1bs, $4.30@4.70; 950 to 1200 1bs, $4.00@4.40: stockers and feeders, $2.5w4.2003 cows, bulls and mixed, 2.00(24.00; bulk, $3.00 (@3.25; slop-fed steers, 75; Texas cat- l'lo. strnwy grassers, $2.75(«3.90; corn fed, 00(d lhms.— I‘here was a sharp down turn of 5@10¢ in this market, with slow trade and a dull finish.

The London market for A merican securities came in heavy and a shade lower and this exercised a depressing Influence on the local markets. Arbitrage houses reported a very slack demand for stocks, and there were current reports thata strong boar party had been formed, com- posed of Gou d, Sage, White and Pearsall, and that the intention was to work prle s down in order to buy fora big bull move- ment which Is expected to come later in the season. New England was rather firm ata shade above 56, and very strong points were out ghat it was bought for s big advance. Gould stocks were inactive, and the pressure to sell Missourl Pacific appeared to be over for the time being ~ Fort Worth & Denver, which electrified the street with a 10 point advance last week, began to drop to-day. It sold down 3 per cent, and the talk from al- leged inside sources was that 1t would go a good deal lower. Grangers received only a slack support from the west, and were, in consequence, very dull but not especially weak. Western oporators were doing very little in the market. ‘They are inclined to feel bearish on the theory that manipulation was likely to cause a somewhat lower range of prices, but they preferred not tosell stocks themselves while the railroad earnings were so larqe. Atnoon the market was steady with the exception of Fort Worth & Denver, which had declined 4 per cent. The sales to noon were 81,000 shares. Fort Worth dropved to 53%¢ in the afternoon dealings, but betore the close had rallled to 56's. New England advanced % per cent and all the coal stocks showed good gains, The market closed very strong at about the best prices of the day. ‘The total sales wore about 200,000 shares.
