THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. Settles to a Still Level. ‘Wheat Lower CORN VALUES ABOUT THE SAME. Oats Exhibit Continued Weakness Provisions mewhat irregular— Cattle Moderately Active and Prices Unchanged. . CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. pecial Telegram to are no scares nor seems to settie Cricaco, Fe T Tur Beg, | —When there pegs in the market, wheat naturally i the direction of lower levels. But the local trading crowd is aboutas easily frightencd at shadows as it is at sub stance, and runs to cover quickly. Traders take quick counsel of their fears. Fairbank states that he has more wheat than he ever had, and that his confidence grows stronger as nis holdings increase. ‘This may be Fair, bank’s position, but he has been abandoned by four-fifths of the “tailers and “trum- peters,” and his figure looms again into con- spicuity by reason of its apparent isolation. The gencral speculative sentiment is un- questionably bearish, butit is not particu- larly audacious, The short interest scems to be increasing, howeves, and there is rather heavier selling on hard spots for bear account than has been witnessed for a couple of weeks, The scalpers have been run in two or three times without especial difficulty, but this really cuts very little figure in the development of a decline of sentiment, The prevailing opinion seems to be that however the legitimate situation, based on the actual consumptive inroad into the stocks of wheat may be strengthening day by day, Chicago is out of line and is quite as likely to go down as the markets else- where are likely to advance. It is only natural that Chicago, in its position as the heaviest market in the country, should at- tract the fire of the whole world, and this 1s vrecisely what is being witnessed now. The influential news received to-day was from the other side. The intelligence of a little corner in wheat and flour in Paris caused considerable excitement. but as those who were most active in ats cir- culation were found selling wheat on the resulting bulge, the conclusion was 2ulnpml to that the Tews was of smaller mportance than the boomers tried to make it appear. A tendency to magnify bull items seems to have developed to an alarming ex- tent recently. Of a different sort was the news from the United Kingdom that the stocks of flour are decreasing rapidly. Thi comes well authenticated and has a substan- tial basis, as is shown by the inquiry for flour for English account. It may be true that some of the flour being cxvorted is “‘con- signed flour,” but the proportioun of such flour, with relation to the whole, is not large. May'was quoted at $1.07% at the opening. It ranged at $1.07%(@1.03 the first five minutes, and from $1.05 sold down to $1.06. It then worked back 15¢ or such a matter, and off to $1.05%{. The Paris news caused ajump to £1 U‘i'g. The subsequent course of values was downward, though thera was one rally to $1.05, The two points around which prices paused the longest during the_session were and $1.07%¢ later. To- ' got down to $1.07, which was the close. at Yde, ranged ut 933 @ by, and d\mdul 315c. The volume of trade was larger in May than in July, the former month hiving in part recovered from its late unpopularity, though May (va‘rnl()rl still refuse to do b\mm 58 As compared with loss of 1 v 5¢c, The corn market, u;mum] fairly active, and there was no pronounced desire to sell. The seatiment appears to be gathering more to the buying side among the local operators, and at :5%c for May there was a preponder- ance of buyers. The improvement in the in- spection has not so far hud a_depressing cf- fect, No. 2 remaining fairly steady, while the lower grades continue in active demand for present wants at improving prices. The = amount of business passing was, however, quite smali, the very slight fluctuations possessing no attraction for the general class of specula- tors, who are at present finding more con- genial surroundings in the wheat and pro- wvision pits. This is the third day that corn nas closed virtually at the same price, which is a rather rare instance of undivided opinion, Oats exhibited continued weakness, with May again touching 27c, or the lowest price of the week. The offerings in a speculative way were only moderate, yot with the ab- sence of buying orders the market was dull at a decline of ¢ from yesterday's close. At the inside price there was a good demand from the shorts, with a subsequent partial recovery. There was some desire apparent to change May coutracts into June favor of the former, while March was i The provision trade was somewhat irregu- lar. Another heavy run of hogs occasioned a weak opceing, and the first sales made were at prices showing declines from yes- terday’s closings of 734c on pork and 2'5c on lard and short ribs. Later, however, the market gained in strength and improved in tone. The speculative offerings proved to be much smaller than was gencrally ex pected and as sellers found ready buyers for the property offered, pork experienced an advance of 17%¢ and lard and short ribs of Be. The highest prices quoted also prevailed before the noon hour. After 12 o'clock the demand subsided and trade fell back untl the improvement in lard and short ribs was entirely lost. In pork the reaction wiped out 10¢ of the morning’s advance. Based on esterday’s final quotations. lurd closed fe ower, pork unchanged and short ribs un- changed to 23gc lower.
