Cricaco, June 1.—[Speciai Telegram to Tur Bee.]—Wheat scored an advance of 13¢ct o-day as compared with last night's clos- ing prices, but only held 1c of the gain until the close of the morning session. The prin- cipal buying appeared to be by Hutchinson and by frightened shorts. All the talk was about the July deal, and the theories are all plainly laid out and clear. There is oue trouble, however, that these theories of the deal are quite numerous, and while cach one by itself looks well and seems reasonable no two of them agree. Armour and Plankinton are much talked of as silent but very success- ful partners of Cudahy in his effort to ad- vance prices, One story was that all the “Jongs' had recently met together and would hereafter act in concert. Whatever the stories were they were sufficient to cause general alarm among the shorts, and their efforts to cover put up prices sharply. Aside from the talk of manipulation there were circumstances calculated to encourage hold- ers of wheat. The weather was cold and un- seasonable in the spring wheat country, chinch bugs were reported from southern Indiana, exporters were reported to be buy- ing cash wheat in New York, and deliveries on June contracts here this morning were small—from 500,000 to 800,000 bushels, This lodged with the Eggleston crowd, who evi- dently had expected a much larger amount to be deliverea out and that the market would be weak in consequence, but in this they were disappointed. On the other hand the Liverpool market was quoted as “flat, with prices tending down for American wheat. Exports were much smaller t yesterday and receipts at primary marke were large. This aggregate was large, how- ever, only because of unusually heavy r ceipts at Milwaukee—82,000 bushels. A dis patch from that city said that most of this was low grade wheat from Chicago for Mil- waukee millers, and that not more than 10,- 000 bushels of it would ever appear in the visible supply. July wheat opened at 851 sold next_to 83%c, then straight up to 86@ 8635¢, fell to 8b3{c, then, with occasional small reactions, worked gradually up to £6%c, held between 865{c and 83!¢c for some time, then suddenly fell to 861 on selling by Hutchinson and Cudahy brokers and on a rumor that Lenn was selling ofit his long wheat. After this there was but one slight reaction, and the 1 o'clock close was at 861c. December wheat opened at S6c, sold up to 8687c and closed at 86}c. June wheat worked up from l¢c discount from July at the opening to but }c discount at the close. The corn murket developed unexpected strength, Possibly the fact that but 5,000 bushels were delivered out this morning on June contracts had something to do with this strength, but the decrease in receipts, pres- ent and prospective, were more influen Only 720 cars arrived against an estimate of 843 cars, and of these receipts 407 cars were of contract grade. The estimate is for 465 cars for to-morrow. The local crowd had up{mmnlly so0ld too much yesterday in the belief that the bull party had lost control, and_with practically no_deliveries ana much smaller receipts to-day there was a lively de- mand from the shorts, and the price reacted only when the shorts were satisfied. July corn opened at 55¢, which was 3¢ above last night's closing, and immediately advanced to B6; o then gradually declined to 55%c, and closed at 1°o'clock at b5ife. ~September corn opened at 557%c, sold up to b6i{c, and closed at 1 o'clock at 557¢c. The speculative oat market was quiet but strong and prices ruled higher, especially for near deliveries. July oats opened J(c higher than last night's close, at 33}¢c, sold up to 843¢c, and closed at 1 o'clock at 33%c. Se tember oats advanced from 2i}c at the opening to 273c at the close. In provisions the late dullness was con- tinued. Deliveries on June contracts were light—of short ribs some 12,000, and upward of 15,000 barrels of pork. The pork and lard delivered were taken by aeouple of houses. In the general trade a rather strong feeling prevailed. Pork was weakened a little by deliveries and offerings for June, and was quoted at 1 o'clock at a dechine of 5 @10c. Lard and short ribs, on the contrary, sustained an advance of 2 ai APTERNOON SEssioN—Wheat—Firm; June closed at about 8ii{c; .hm opened at S6Xc, so0ld at 86)ge, up 1o BOI{@S63c, closing ab 86}ge, August closingat s43{c bid; September closed at_about &43{c, December closing at 8614 @S0}gc.

Plain and common natives, although not ad- vancing in the same proportion as the best, are substautially higher than last weck, and 10-duy, on account of the light run of Texans, sold fairly well. Native butchers’ stock, os- pecially fat calves, sold better, more on account of the light supply of Texans than any improvement in the demand. Native canning 8:0.k ren dull, with prices down to low water mark. There were only forty- two loads of Texans on sale, the best, especially corn-fed, selling a shade firmer. Grassers were slow and down to as low prices as ut any time this week. Stockers and feeders, quict but steady. Veal calves 60@75¢ lower than last weck. One car of faucy 1640-1bs beeves brought $5.70; cars 1850@1600 1bs, $5.00@5.30 . uferior mixed, H@4.10; cows, $1 90@?2.40. bk ey was ratber slow at the start and prices rather weak, especially on common and undesirable mixed, early salcs showing about a nickel lower than the close esterduy. Later, especially when it becamo nown that the Allerton packing company was on the market, values ruled steadier and the general market became strouger but not essentially higher. At one time fair to good l::ukmu and mixed sorts sold at $5 58715 st licavy mixed, $.40, and best heavy &l $5.45(5.50, and within the above range the bulk of stock was sold to-day. One or two lots of fancy heavy sold at#5.55 aud light sold lurgely st §5.40. I"INANCIAL. New Yous, June 1.—[Specia! Telegram to Tue Bek. | - Srocks—-London opened weak and sent selling orders for Louisville & Nash wville, Reading and Lake Shore. This rather intensified the bearish fecling among profes- sionals who are running the market, and a weak fecling existed. Trading was not large and during the first Lour declines of 4 to 3 points were recorded, the largest losses being Louisville & Nashville, St. Paul, New Eng- land and Burlington. There was a moderate quantity of long stock pressed out, but most of the selling appeared to be short.- A de- fault was made on Jyne interest on Missouri, Kansas & Texas, and it dropped %. The current gossip was that it would be put into the hands of a receiver. It will require a continuous default, however, before the bond- holders can put it there. Richmond Terminal and cotton o1ls were an exception to the gen- eral list and advanced % while the others de- clined. At the meeting of directors of the former yesterday 208,000 shares were voted by the present board and 64,600 by the oppo- sition. The latter did not, press for an answer 10 their long list of questions, but the direct- ors insisted on answermng them. Tt is said the management has under consideration a plan to form a connection with other roads that will materially benefit their road. A rumor comes from Philadelphia that the Pennsylvania road had issued a circular an- nouncing that 5,000 men would be discharged this week. 'This, with the continued depres. sion in the iron trade, made operators in coal stocks more bearish than ever, and induced fair selling. Butafter a drop of %@ p rally followed, There was a decidedly lar movement after midday. Stocks were weaker during the morning be- came stronger, and with a few exceptions the whole list moved upwa The shorts were the principal buyers, and closing sales were made at nearly outside prices and recorded gains extending to 14 except on Union Pacific, which closed ¥ lower. Total sales were 148,020 shares, including 3,300 Reading, 23,600 St. Paul, 18,100 Union Pacific, 11,000 Missouri Pacific, 10,400 New England, 4,300 Richmond Terminal, and 5,000 Louisville & Nashville.
