THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. An Enormous Quantity of Wheat Offered For Sale. IN FINE FEATHER. Prices in the Corn Pit Follow the Course of Wheat-—-Trading in Cat- tle Fair—Hogs Lower— Quotations, THE BEARS CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET, Cricaeo, March 16.—[Special Telegram to the Beer.]—Nature favored the wheat bears this morning and they welcomed her assist- unce and took advantage of it to the extent of driving the price of wheat down about another }qc. There scemed an enormous amount of wheat for sale, with the other few shorts who were willing to take in their profits the principal buyers. The down turn ‘was greatly helped by the coming out of long wheat on stop loss orders, Foreign in- fluence was felt only in selling orders from the other side. May wheat opened here at 7914¢c, which was ' c above yesterday’s clos- ing, and worked up early to 70%(@70}ge, then declined to 7%{c, reacted to i% and on the next down turn touched i8%e, advanced again_to 78%c, fell to i8¢ and closed at 1 o'clock at K @ikse, June wheat opened at 9% @ivic, sold ut 10igc straight and down Lo lyc, closing at 10 ‘clock at the last named p I’nwu l|| the speculative corn market fol- lowed the course of wheat, but there was better support hiere at the decline and the drop was smaller, although the close was very near the lowest point of the session. The rumor of a general strike, which was found so depressing in the wheat ril, had the same influence here, but the probable resto- ration of freight rates, which it was thought would cut down_receipts, went a long way toward counteracting its effect. Muy deliv- ery closed only Y erday afternoon. ine on this declining market to so discourage farmers that it would largely increase their deliveries and this restoration of freight rates takes the force out of that reasoning. May corn opened at bllge and worked up early to B13(@blise, then fell to S0}, re- acted to 51@s1 3¢ and closed at 1 o'clock at 50} @>le. June corn opened at ble asked, sold up to 51%gc, down to 70jgc and closed at that price at 1 o'clock. There was a fair speculative trade in oats and the weakness in the other grain markets was reflected here but slightly, except in more deferred futures. May oats opened at Sle, sold at B1@1lsc and at 303¢c and closed at 1 o’clock at 30 June oats opened at 8lc, sold down to and closed at 30J¢c. August oats sold down from 27}5c to 27 For July oats 30k was asked. In provisions a fair showing of strength ‘was manifested. Prices were a little lower than yesterday, but the decline suffered was more~ through sympathy with grain than from any weakness in the market or change in fecling, Based on last night's closings pork was quoted at 1 o'clock be and lard and short ribs at 5@ APTERNOON SES810N.— Wheat firmer, May closing at TRig@78¥Kc, June T94c, July '\l%u Corn firm.

Buyers were in the saddle at an early hour and commenced operations on a liberal scale. As to prices, there was a va- riety of opinion, many salesmen quoting a decline of 10¢ and others a steady market. It was whispered that a “tip” was out that there would be some difficulty with the en- gineers on eastern roads, hence the anxicty of shippers to get_something ahcad on the roads. Shippers took 4,670 yesterday, the market closing steady, and to-day it was es- timated that they would take a larger num- ber.

The big- gest drop is in Baltimore & Ohio in a decline of 13{@1}; pownts and the Pacifics come next in a fall of 1)4@1% points, On the general list the abatement ranges X @!g points, but the market must be noted as lacking in firm- ness of tone cven at the quotations at which it closed. The market opened very tame and the little business entered into was at con- cessions, though only to & fractional extent, The long mterruption of general business gave an opportunity for the bear element to gain the ascendancy. The absence of foreign advices as well as home telegraphic orders was a serious hindrance. The professionals, in offering a few stocks at lower prices, met very little resistance, The total sales were 178,000 shares. GOVERNMENTS — Government bonds were dull and steady.

East St. « s The receipts of cattle {o-day wore fair and the quality averaged well with those of the past fow days. The local demand was only Tair and fears of a strike on some roads and a decline in other markets made shippers very cautious. The market on most grades was about steady, being a shade lower on others. Trading was quite active and about 40 head changed hands. The market closed rm. Hogs. The receipts were moderate, the general quality fair, there being someé very good noge among the offerings. Keports from Chicago indicated a decline and buyers be- gan offering lower prices. Salesmen were slow to concede the decline and for a time the market was slow until about noon, when trading became quite active at a decline of 10 cents, n some cases 15 conts. The local packers were heavy buyers, Armour and the Omaha packing company taking most of the receipts. The market closed with everything taken, Sheep. There were o fresh receipts to-day and nothing was done on the market. Prices are steady. When the Swift packing house re- opens shippers may anticipate & good sheep market here.
