THE OMAHA DAILY BEL: THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS, A Marked Downward Tendency in the Wheat Pit. THE CEREAL SOLD VERY FREELY, Bhorts in Corn Continue to Cover and Prices Rule Strong—Oats Active— Good Trading Still in Pro- vislons, CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. Cuicaco, May 4.—[Special Telegram to the Brr.]-The tendency of the wheat market was downward this morning, but the decline was small, and part of it was recovered be- fore the close of the morning session, early cable quoted a downward tenden wheat in Liverpool, but this was the only bit of news on the side of the bears, and it was doubtful if even this had much cffect upon them, Their strength lay rather in the ab. sence ‘of auy fresh sensational stimulating news for the other side. There was bull news, to be sure, but it was in the form of bad crop reports and only confirmatory of things known some days ago, and thought, when first known of, to warrant higher prices. But holders grow tired when the upward movement halts, They are glad to talke their profits even if they are small, when they sce that those profits have stopped growing. It is just this condition of things for which the short seller waits with confi- dence. 8o this morning, after three or four days of smali fluctuations, there were plenty of believers in a decline. Hutchinson was the most conspicuous seller early, but he had many followers. At the decline Hutchinson was the best buyer, whiic Ream sold freely, and some recent buyers, like Mitchell and Bloom, were sellers. The weather map was much consulted to-day. It showeda few interesting things for the bulls, One was, that it was again clear in San Francisco, and that the twenty-four hours’ rainfall there had been but 14 of an inch. It was snowing in St. Paul, and reports from Duluth that the weather was cold and wet. Rece! of wheat at interior markets showed counsid- erable falling off as compared with recent days. Exports, however, continue small, and this is one discouraging feature of the situa- tion—to the bulls. The only explanation offered is that great Britain has contractod for a large amount of Kussian wheat, and will not be an anxious buyer in American markets until that wheat arrives and is mostly consumed. July wheat opened at 8:3¢c, sold down to 881 (@ 83%c, up to 83 . then down to Sic, buit with very fow sales at that price, thenup to K8lge which was the price at the 1 o'clock close. June wheat opened at 824 (@: B0Id Up 0 £29¢¢, down to 82¢ and closed at 1 o'clock at s215c! ‘The covering of shorts in May corn which was the feature of that market yesterday was continued to-day. It sent the price of May corn up from 5ic to 5S¢, the_highest point yet reached and at the close 57lgc was asked for that delivery. = Trade in other futures was quite light with very little chunge to mnote in prices as a result of the nmrlfing's trading. Some of the longs, how- ever, were selling May at the top and buying June and July, which at one tune caused some advance in those d ies. Receipts were considerably less than expected and this was a strengthening feature. June and .lul_v corn opened at { 5c, sold down to b rere was continued talk of a squeeze in May oats, and the covering of shorts put that clivery up #c from yesterday's close, the at 1 o'clock being “The other old trop futures were rather hoiped by this de- mand, but more deferred futures were easier.

A fair interest was shown and in the different lines a compary tively zood business was transacted with June, July and August the favorite deliver- ies. In trading lard was leader. Values all around fluctuated within a moderate limit and at 1 o’clock exhibited no radical change from lust night's closings. May pork and short ribs were quoted 5¢ and May 2/¢c under June.

STOCK, hat irregula were about 10¢ higher on desirable grades. Some sellers thought there was no quotable advance and some others thought prices were decidedly better, All, however, were afraid that the fmproved market would induce heavy runs and again soon spoil all advantages that had been gained. Some buyers also scemed to dave the same idea, as their bids were con- siderably lower on some late arrivals, One two-load lot of fancy cattle sold at £5.25, and astern shippers bought rather freely of good av choice cattle. Prices on good, desirable cattle of all kinds to-day were about 20@25e Jigher than on last Monday, and that on a 40,000 run for the first five days of the week.
