THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS, Bulls Decidedly on Top in the Wheat Pit. THE STRONGEST DAY FOR WEEKS Corn Also Rules Very Firm and Scores Good Advances — Cattle Kather Slow — Hogs Active and Prices Steady. CHICAGO PRODU Cnicaco, July b Tne Bee.|—The sentiment on changing decidedly for the better. The in ression that has borne down on the market for several weeks has been measura- bly dissipated. An important improvement in prices was established to-day, and at the top the gain from the lowest point, 78%¢ for August, was 3'c. The gain from Tuesday’s closing price was 17¢c. The advance was steady and rapid. There were several pauses and a few slight reactions, but no declines of sufficient gravity to let the shorts out “‘on the breaks.” Hutchinson was a buyer on a large scale throughout the forenoon. His , only constituted one of ral contributing to same end. In brief, it was a bull day— the first genuine one that has been witnessed in weeks, Advices wore received by several reliable parties confirmatory of the esti- mates of the French crop de- ficienc Baker had a cable from a French house which he considers one of the most conservative firms in Eu- rope, placing the shortage at 47,000,000 bush- els. Private market eables represented the tone as stronger and ana probabilities favor- ing an advance in England and on the conti- nent. The weather is unfavorable and avail- able supplies are getting light, Returns from the southern wheat fields do not meet the expectations of those who have been counting on bountiful yields south of Mason and Dixon’s line. The returns from Kansas are better than from any other quarter and the outlook is good. The local features may be comprised in the statement that the feel- ing is one of returned healthfulness, The re- covery of 8c from the bottom range is quite important, but as the price got below its natural level it cannot be said to mark a very great advance from which an improvement might naturally have been expected to start. It is an improvement, however, for which the bulls are profoundly grateful and whose signiffcance they are not likely to underrate. The close was practically at the top. August ‘was traded in shortly before the tap of the bellon a basis of 82'c and December at 843c. The volume of speculative business transacted was large and the tone of the market was unqualifiedly buoyant. The sub Tosa sensation of the day was the “roasting” given an until recently all powerful operator Wwho was “whipsawed,” to use a slang phrase, on_ privileges and the irregular trading of July and August close together and 2! under December. Advices from the north- west are some! disquieting. Reports from isolated localities tell of rust and smut but pothing serious as yet. Spring wheat has been ‘“catching up” some, but good Juages not to the extent that the immi- ration and real estate booming agencies of akota and Minnesota have represented. Corn ruled very firm and closed 1c higher than on Tuesday and strong at the advance. Cables quote corn as strong in all positions in the markets abroad, and the domestic situation as strengthening. The movement from first hands is small and does not seem likely to get larger. On the other hand the shipping inquiry keeps up and corn in great quantities pours out. Local stocks must diminish rapidly, with the daily out inspe tion ranging from 200,000 to 400,000 bushels, Lake engagemonts for to-day were reported at 211,000 bushels, and estimated receipts are given at 210 cars, Another big decrease in tne visible supply is expected. Speculative trade did not develop any sensations and seemed on the whole to be rather quict. The absence of the bearish influences, which have been the distinguishing traits of late, e noticeable, It scems to be gencrally un- derstood “‘i“ theye isglurgo short, intorest in corn, butasitis tod greal extent con- centrated there have been no signs of flurry or alarm. The improvement in values is none the less steady, however, and the mar- ket has an unusually steady undertone. Last prices were the best of the day. Oats scored an aavance of ¥ and left, off on the top. One of the full factors was the receipt of reports from a variety of sources by scores of members that the storm of last night beat down heavy oats over an area in western Illinois and in Towa of not less than 800 miles to 150 miles, damaging the crop greatly. The storm was the most serious one that has occurred this estimated arrivals to-morrow a s In provisions a comparatively strong feel- ing was the rule he moderate run of hogs coupled with a little better demand for pro- ducts, made the bull interest a little more aggressive, and higher prices were witnessed all around. Based on Tuesday’s closings, pork sustained an advance of b@lic, lard of 7l,@10c, and short ribs of 10c. prices obtained prevailed around the close, Speculation, as of late, was mainly local and generally quite slow. Cash pork, la meats sold with rather fair freedom. Fu- ture trading was confined chiefly to August and September. CHICAGO LIVE STOCK, Cumicaco, July 5.—|Special Telegram to Tne Bek.|—CartLe—The estimated receipts i MARKET. were #,000, for the week so far, 30,331, Trad- ing opened rather slow, and early sales of fair to good natives showed a light decline as compared with Tuesday and Wednesday, yet values ure 26@30c higher than last week on good to choice natives. The extremely low rail rates from Chicago to all shipping points had some effect in steadying prices, otherwise values would have ruled fully 25c lower than on Monday. Rail rates on cattle and dressed beef are about the lowest on record, There were more native cattle among the arrivals to-day than for any day the past three wecks and among them were many prime lots. One shipper had several loads for which he was bid $6 yesterday cand refused the offer, Early to-day he was again offered #6, but later on the bid was withdrawn and the chances were he would have to take less. Second class and common natives were no lower than Tucsday, as the run of Tex- ans is not more than one-half the number at this time iast week. Salesmen that had prime Texans reported that they were able 10 get more money than yesterday, yet tho general Texas market underwent little or no change. Canuing Texans were about as low as last week and common canning uative cows are fully as low as at any time. The stocker and feeder trade shows some symp- toms of revival, but prices are extremely low. Prices are quoted as follows: Choice to extra beeves, 1400 to 1600 1bs, $5.500.25; medium to good steors, 1350 to 1500 ibs, $5.25@b.50; 1,200 to 1,850 1bs, $4.70@5.35; 950 e 4.70; cows, bulls and ulk, $3.002.65; slop-fed Texus cattle, quiet and unchangeds stecrs, (50 to 1,5 calves, £3.000560 0 600 1bs., §2.0'@ 700 Jos., $2.80@2.55; cows, $1.50@%25. consigniment of Montana grassers a\eraging 1,280 pounds sold at §4.45.
