B SPECULATIVE MARKETS and Bears About Bqually Divided in Wheat. CORN IMPROVES SOMEWHAT. Oats Remain Steady—Provisions Con- tinue Strong, Short Ribs and Lard Leading—A Spurt in Cattle— General Quotations. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET, Chircaco, May 23.—[Special Telegram to Tne Br,|—There was no reason to believe 8t night that the so called bull syndicate had #0ld any wheat, but at one time during the #ession, the crowd believed it was selling and the effcet was the same as if it had been a fact, A broker in New York sold 100 boat loads in one transaction and fifty boat loads in another, making the sale in two lots of 1,250,000 bushels, New York dispaches said thit the order came from Chicage, and prob- ably from Cudahy. That bit of gossip was the most influential of anything during the day. July wheat opened at &7c and looked strong fora while. Hutchinson was a_seller agam, Cables from Liverpool said that wheat was “tending down.” The weather here was bright. Dispatches from the Red River district said that the country there had just had a nice warm rain and that prospects were fine.* All this gave n bear tendency to prices, but they were as nothing compared with the dispatch from New York inti- mating that the syndicate holding here was being sold out there. From 8idc July dropped to 87c, were there was a long fight. ‘Then, after a rally to 875, it started down fester than ever, and this time went to 86%¢ @s61{c. Besides the selling by Hutchinson, thero were big lots gotten rid of by Norton & Worthington and by William Young & Co. The Smith-Gaylord-Trego holdings went over the board. According to gossips W. € MecCormick & Co. were credited with sell- ing almost million of December wheat, for St. Louis. Bloom was apparently covering. He tovk several large lots of December and bid once or twice for round lots without getting them, There was steady buying all the scssion by J. Edwards & Co, credited to -G and by Dwight. The buying thet turned the market up just before thel o'clock close was by Nash & Wright, the corn sclling house that usually takes very little part in the wheat it. They took over b0).000 bushels from Ol¢@s6ic up to S86ige. This latter ot was _tho closing _figure for o'clock. Far options o R A e s 3ge discount. Bloom’s buying brought 1t up fiowever, and it closed almost ata parity with July. The report that the Illinois state agricultural report put_the condition of the state now at 67 as against 57 in the govern- ment's May report sturted some profes- sionals to selling. At the opening Foss, Strong & Co., us buyers on a large scille and 0,000 bushels of May and rallied the feelings which weak over the night. May touched Hicand closed at 1 55c. July _opened at Bilge, so'd between Bide _ and ok, and at 1 oclock was @t 5ic. Oats were comparatively steady Cspeciall, for May, which opened at 3dc, sold to and at 1'0'clock closed at ‘July onciied at 52¢c, touched 82%c, and at 1 o'clock closed at 8214c. In provisions the strong feeling lately pre- vailmg was continued. Trading, however. failed to snow any improvement, and in the moderate business transacted short ribs and lard led m interest. In the last named arti- cle the English houses were, as usual, the rincipal buyers.

Cneaco, May 22.—[Special Telegram to Tug BeE. |—CATTLE—One-third of the fresh receipts were made up of Texans, among which were, as usual, some very poor and some prime lots, Trade in Texans was slow av good to lower on poor and com:mon. The supply of natives consisted of about 6,000, that is allowing 2,000 for Texans—a rather short supply for even Tuesday—hence there was considerable competition among buyers for suitable cattle and under this spurt the best, or say light and medium steers, sold a shade strong, some salesmen giving it as their opinion that handy little steers were about 10¢ higher. On the other hand coarse and common or anything that Dad to compete with Texans were slow, hard 1o sell and weak as to prices. Native butch- ors stock, especially poor and unsuituble, went down with Texans as also dia the common native canning stock, The stocker and feed- er trade underwent little or no changes. Re- ceipts were light and only small lots were wanted, Shipping and export 105061650 1bs. £4 25@5.00; dressed beef 950 (@4.80; cows and mixed, § and fecders, §2.75(w4. 10: £2,800@8.50; fed -woru,w.wum Hous—Business ' wus again light fluctuations, but on the whole about steady us compared with yesterday.

FINANCIAL. brisk with York, May 22.—[Special Telegramn to 'Mne Bre)-Srocks—The market was Qull with a decided falling off in sales during tho morning, which up to noon were only 74,400 shures. Aside from the interest taken in St. Puul, Missouri ific, Reading and Union Pacific, there was no trading. The street was full of bear Gold was taken for export more freely than atany previous time this year, $152,000 pbeing taken 1o-day, making the exports to date $3,250,000, Exports of gold, however, should not ercate 80 much excitement when it is borne in mind that for niue months this year's imports of foreign gold have been §57,000,000. This country has also gained largely in gold from mines and can easily spare a large part of the imports without feeling . It was freely taliked that the St. Paul would make a new issue of common stock on top of the §40,004,- 000 already out. This was emphatically de- nied by ofticials, but it had its effect on the market just the same. It is believed that the old bull pool have closed out all their hold- ings, but insiders have sold and to cover their tracks have borrowed stock to deliver, paying a small premium. Fears were enter- taied thyt the continued slump in this prop- erty would materially aflect the restof the list, and it is said an emergeney pool was formed last night to buy 50,000 sharcs for protection. Aftera break of 1 point, selling began to show signs of letting up; the short interest showed itself and a 5 per cent rally followed. The Union Pacific broke % per cent despité reports from Washington that the bill for- its velief would be rolliimded g 55iu the mear future.
