THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS, Wheat Rules Dull and Suffers a . £light ‘Decline, THE BEARS WELCOME TP;|E RAIN. A Dall Day in the Corn Pit—The Pro- vision Trade Continues Depressed —~Cattle and Hogs Steady ~Quotations, CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. Cnicaco, April 27.—[Special Telegram to the Ber.]—It was a weather market and & waiting market in wheat this morning. The opening was strong and higher apparently because promised rains in the principal win- ter wheat states did not come. This fright- ened some shorts into covering and gave the speculative market almost its only activity, and that just at the opening. After that the market sagged very slow indeed, and with occasional small reactions, but it had a per- sistent downward tendency, and during the morning session amounted to nearly 1c from the highest point. The bearish feature was contained in the reports of rain from Mis- souri, Kansas and other points in the south- ‘west, coupled with the information that these rains were extending eastward. Aside from the immediate affect of the weather, how- ever, it looked as if believers in wheat had bought about all they wanted at these prices, and were waiting for some bullish news to compel the shorts to cover and put prices up ‘where they would havea profit,or for the bears to sell the market down, when wheat could be bought lower. On the other hand, tne bears scemed to have put out about as much short wheat as they cared to ut the price, and were waiting for rain or weariness and impatience to make the bulls drop their long ‘wheat and 8o put the arket down for them. Extremely light trading, with scarcely any outside orders all morning, scemed to indi- cate such a state of things, and the expres- sion of opinion, both by the bulls and bear: pointed the same way. A moderate decline ‘was not unexpected, and indeed was rather welcomed, even by believers in higher prices, as giving an opportunity to buy at lower tig- ures. The great majority of crop news 1s still bad, but occasionally there is a report of opposite tenor. There were some better reports to-day from Missouri and a few from Indiana. Receipts of wheat m the north- ‘west grow larger instead of smaller, and ex port cleavances were not worth mentioning, all of which was an aid to the bears, But, on the other hand, cables were stronger, and the demand for cash wheat here does. not indicate the grain is a drug, Hard wheat was bought here to-day at 82¢ f. 0. b. for millers in south- ernlllinois and_also for millers in Ohio, A dispatch from New York said that futures were gold there to-d for London account, but bought for the continent. here opened at 821¢c, which was ¢ higher than yesterday's close, held price and ¢ for awhile, then fell to 821{e, advanced to 82%¢, and v Ty fll\)“]\ dulm“d with small and just before the |luau (lmpx:od to ‘&l 813;c, closing there at 1 o'clock.
