THE SPECULATIVE MARRETS. Profeesionals Assume Control of the Wheat Pit. "HUTCH" PURCHASES HEAVILY ©Corn Shows Decided Dullness Most of the Day - A Weak Feeling in Provisions - Cattle Trading Slow- Quotations. CHICAGO PRODUCE Ciicaco, Jan, 4.—[Special Telegram to the Bre |- The wheat market appeared to be left wholly to the professionals to day and there was a great battle in the pit. Ream and Cudahy were on the one sideand Hutchi- son on the other, Ream was there in person selling large blocks, Against this hammer- ing Hutchison's purchases were the strongest support and the battle was just about a draw, May wheat closing a fraction lower than last night's close, but Ty¢ higher than the opening this morning. The outside public secmed to be leaving the market alone as a general thing, News was rather in favor of the bulls and its influence seemed to be felt oc- casionally, but oftener the fight was carricd on without reference to outside circum- stances. The public cable quoted spot wheat at Liverpool quiet at unchanged prices, but futures were lower. The on-passage state- ment showed a_decrease of 1,360,000 bushels on the way to the United Kingdom and a de- crease of 80,000 bushels for the continent. This fact was credited with causing a good advance at one time in the session. May wheat opened at 43¢ and during the carly trading, under heavy offerings by local bears, dropped to 8414¢, then advanced to 843%c, and fluctuated between that price and S4%e for some time, later advancing to 84%c and closing at 1 o'clock at M4%¢ A fair quantity of grain bought by one commission house was believed to be for Kent. February wheat opened and closed at ise. The high point was nominally i%%¢ and the low 77 {e. The corn market was decidedly dull most of the day and fluctuations were within a range of 1. A depressing influence was the delivery by one house yesterday afternoon of 500,000 ‘bushels of corn which was not ex- pected to come out. Its influence was chiefly felt on nearer futures, Jan which Lb{ull at 1 o'clock ) v at 499¢¢ bid, standing at the close of this morning's session at 48%; ¢ May corn opened at 51%c, which was MARKET. ¥ I fell another : during the early trading. ow point, and grad- y hic 1 the casing off toward the the opening price, at1o'clock.

CHICAGO LIVE STOCK. Cnicaco, Jan. 4.—|Special Telegram to the Bek.]—Carrie—Trade was slow from the start to the finish, opening late ana clos- ing weak on a down turn of 10@15¢ on good and useful natives, while plain and undesira- ble stock sold in some cases 20¢ down. Best erades of native butchers stock, such as ‘would suit the city butcher trade or dressed beat mn'ru‘ur, ruled about steady as com- pured with the past day or two. Native can- ning stock was unchanged. Thin, old cows and other objectionable stock is down about 88 low as at any time. There were but few Texans to-day and but few are expected, as St. Louis and Kansas City scem to be able to take care of the limited number now coming forward.

The strike on the Reading railroad had no effect, but efforts w made to cause a decline by the strike in the ford four collicries in the huylkill - di This strike was characterized by some as the miners’ usual holiday outing. Otbers, how- ever, were inclined to the belief that the strike was a stock jobbing operation. Read- ing was depressed 13 per cent from yester- day's close and appeared to have little sup- pert. London was weak and news from that market said operators were adverso to making new trades and were selling their securities quite freely. Their course tended to depress Wall street and the market de- clined @13 per cent. The bulls laid great stress on the fact thut, despite the recent predictions by the bears, that the ings of the Granger roads wo decrease. 7T Paul shows a net gain for the yearof §i and the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy of $391,407. he St. Paul road is said to include the ecarnings of its JKansas City branch, which was recently opened. They also assert that within the next fiftecen days $10,000,000 in securities will be tuken from the street by investors who have received their yea Qividends. In the face of these assertions the market showed a little resistance to the Wttacks of the bears and at 2 o'clock was tame nt almost inside figures, The markets became stronger the last hour, but business did not improve. Lackawanna closed fra tionally lighter, but the rest of the list was lower. The total sales were 155,703 shares against 139,978 shares yesterday, YESTERDAY'S QUATATIONS, 4s regixtered 12514 C. & N.
