THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. Auother War Bumor Oauses An Advance in Wheat. CORN DULL AND FEATURELESS. Slight Fluctuations in Sympathy With ‘Wheat—Provisions Continue Quiet But Strong — Cattle Steady— Hogs Lower—Quotations CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. Cuicaco, Feb. ipecial Telegram to the Bre.|—Early this morning a few houses had London cables advising them that seri- ous political complications haa arisen, and that the London Times and Standard con- tained very warlike articles this morning. It ‘was this news which held the wheat market up and caused some advance in prices shortly before the close when the information be- came more generally circulated. There are 8 good many wheat bulls to be found und the bears themselves do not belittle the effect of a foreign war. They are rendered cautious by the knowledge that an actual outbreak of war would send prices up by cents while the carrying charges,upon which is their main reliance for a profit in short selling will only depress them by cighths, It was reported that one prominent bear had covered 750,000 bushels of short wheat to-day. May wheat opened at 815¢c and during early trading sold down to S1}4¢, but with very light trading at that price, then advanced to Siie and fluctuated between that price and Stde for some time, then dropped to S11g@s1ic and advanced to 823¢c, which was the price at the 1 o'clock close. March wheat opened at 7614e, sold down to 76'¢c and the nominally high point, and the close was 76 The speculative corn market was dull and featureless, Pr fluctuations followed closely those of wheat, and there seemed to be nothing cither in the news or in the action of individual operators to influence values. There was very little done for outside specu- lators, and the wheat deal was more intes -«L- ing tolocal traders, May corn opened at 524 (@52%c, and during the early trading touc! hed h2ige straight, but there was but little trad- ing at that price and quick reactions followed. There were abundant buyers’ orders at that price, but only a small amount for sale and but few of the nulvrs could be filled, fell again to 5214 @ in sympathy with the later strength in wheat, advanced to 523¢@5dc and closed there at 1 ofclock, Mareh corn opened at 479;c and closed nominally at 48'c, Oats were firm in sympathy with other grains, but trading was light. ~ All specula- tive business was in May delivery, which opened at 325, sold up to_B3c and closed at 1 o'clock at that price asked. In the provision trade a slow feeling held control. Operators were in fair ance, but there was seemingly more o T ance to branch out, and trading ferent lines failed to reach more than aggregate. the strong tone maintained, L ather tend- prevailing v rd was particular and at 1 o'clock showed anadvance 5¢ on last night's closing.

The demand centered on good to cHoice stock, such selling at strong prices, perhaps, in some instances better than yesterday, but plain and common, or half fattened stock had to stand back, as usual, and be peddied out in the usual very slow and unsatisfactory manner. Native butchers stock was about the same as for a day or two past—that is, substantially lower than lust week. Canning stock was about as low as at any time. A few samples of Texans fattened on cotton gged or cotton seed oil cake were here yesterday and made good prices, Yard dealers in stockers and feeders report pros- pects fair for a revivpl trade, as some of the well known regular Virginia buyers are on the market d more are due.

New Yorg, Feb. 3.—[Special Telegram to the BER. |--Stooks—Lower pri forstocks were recorded again to-day and the market at times was bordering on demoralization, Bear talk predominated, but hinged entirely on rate-cutting in the west, where the fever seems to be spreading. The western roads have asked castern lines to pro rate on through business, and rumors are that in some instances their requests have been granted. The Grand Trunk is reported cut- ting west-bound rates and other roads are liable to be drawn into the fight. Rates to the Missouri river have been cut badly, the nmlhlxmn making veductions ranging from B to 8 per cent. There is no teiling where this slashing of rates will stop, but the indi- cations are that it will be continued until somo of the new lines, who are anxious for business, get enough and cry a halt.
