An Unensy Feeling in Specnlative Hogs ~-What is Doing In Live Stock—Corn Follows the Rise in Wheat. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARK ETS, Cnioaco, May 8.—[Special 'Telegram to Tue Bre.|—The rains that the farmers have been praying for fell upon the spring wheat districts back of St. Paul yesterday and last night, but tife decline that was to occur in prices has not yet materialized. On the con- trary, the course of prices was upward, ana all beeause of the activity in the cash wheat market,and a popular disbelief in a sufficiency of rain fall. The morning dispatches brought the news that more than thirty boat loads had been worked in New York yesterday, and a little while afterward it was stated that fourteen more had been worked this morning. This was subscquently moditied to “‘eight loads worked and six working.” New York was buying wheat here all day, however, and the sudden increase in busi- néss from that quarter toward the close started the market up with a rush, the belief obtaining that arrangements had been made for the moving out of a larger quantity of Wheat than had been stated or even dicted, There is plenty of available tonnage on the Atlantic seaboard, and ocean rates are now easy. Shippers find themselves able 1o command about their terms, and holders are quite willing to sell their goods. Alto- gether the occasion seems ripe for a good export movement. Cables were gen- eraily weaker, but that does not always sig- nify a foreign willingness to take wheat on favorable terms, The most conspicuous feature of the domestic wheat trade is the iarge and steady out moveme: of wheat. The receipts were very light everywhere, ex- cept at Minncapolis, and the arrivals there merely represent u transfer of country ele- vator stocks owned by the millers to their city warehouses, verywhere else, at primary points, receipts are far smaller than shipments, and clearances from seaboard oints are moderate. The flour trade has a better tone, and domestic consumptive do- mands are likely to prove a very important sonsideration for the remainder of the old crop year. 'The market opencd about where it leftoff yesterday, near futures showing some . weakness, however, at the start, Logan and Schwartz Dupee tried to buy a little May, but before they could get what they wanted, the price was run up from around 82¢ to 86%c, June gong to Sic. This started a rapid advance in July, which umped from 78%c, near the opening, to Wlge. At and around 70c, Hutchinson, Reaw, Cudahy, and, in fact, all the local “high rolle were sellers. ‘This broke the mar- ket back gc, and during the _better session it hesitated around 78%[c. Several times a break scemed imminent and the local crowd got ¢ The ex: pectations of a break proved delusive, for about a quarter before 1o'clock the market started up again and did not stop until 79 ;¢ was touched, a sheer ascent of over le. The close was . @ net gain of 1ic on tho day. After the carly bulge, May wheat sold back to 8dc, and June to' 827 but these months werc carried up by ‘boom in July, May going to 85 and June 10 88370, It Was exceedingly diffouit to trade in May or June in a satisfactory w The anxious traders had no show for bargains at any stage of the proceedings. Late news from the nurthwest denoted asudden change in weather conditions. Yesterday they were *frying eggs on hot nds;” to-day it is cold reported at some of the northerly points. There were more buying orders for northwestern ac. count, to-day, then have been sent any day in many wecks. St. Louis was also a good buyer, presumably on bug and drouth re- orts ' from the winter wheat points. 'he local erowd got decidedly the worst of the deal to-day. The continued heavy shipments and excel- lent demand for export and home use have had generully hardening effect on pr and to-day's firmness was duc to thoso causes and to the resulting endeavors of the shorts to stop their loss. The quantity of No. 2 in store here, exclusive of white corn, is now down to 1,500,000 bushels. Reference to the quantity cleared from the Atlantic ports, heading these remarks, shows con- siderable increase There was very little for sale when it was wanted, and the shorts, by their offorts to cover, advanced the market on themselves. The opening prices were about lgc over the ciosing figures of the day before, and the first quotations were the Jowest of the day. Outside domestic markets were firm in sympathy with Chicago, and the market here was helped by the strength in wheat. The market ruled firm all day, and was ot its best at the close. . Prices ad- vanced along the whole line, and in the end showed a gain upon yesterday's closing figures of from ¥ to l¢ per bushel Outs fully recovered the loss of yesterday, ruling irregularly strong to %@'je higher, Trading was only moderate and \‘lnofl» local in its character, with some operators buying, who sold previously, and shorts generally desirng to cover.” May sold up to 24 with a later firm tone, and there was fair business in June at 233g@c, with July at i @3e premium. No. 2, to go in store, sold 340 bette 4o, und trading 1 cash lots Was chic iy by sample, Tn provisions the feeling is still bullish, Hog receipts, so far this week, have fallen short of expectations and, with better prices at the stock yards, the side of higher markets has gained ground. In connection with the hnp.: movement, the impression ulso appears bo spreading that the Armour and Cudahy anflug now with the long interest. ‘I'he arties named and their immeaiate follow- ng, it is alleged, succeeded in securing a lnr‘m amount of property on the last break, and are in a_position to make their power felt. In the speculative trade an uncasy state of affairs at all events prevails, and to- duy’s chauges in prices -resulted in a sharp advance all around.

Hence the early trade dragged steady at about yesterday's figures, but worked firmer as the day passed, closing with an_ ac- tive movement and the supply cleared. Handy weight steers, averages of 1150 to 18501 bs or thereabouts, for some time past sold readiest and to the best advantage, while heavy beeves, particularly 1430 to 1600 1bs averages, were more or less neglected, sellers granting concessions generally. Cows and heifers wade fair figures, but bulls moved with indifferent demand. About forty cars of Toxuns arrived, and they sold strong, as will be noted by the sales found below.

Then, too, the quality of many of the heavy cattle was not such as % make them very desirable. Those which s0ld went at barely steady prices. Thebulk of the beef and shipping steers sold at $3 0@ .80, and some corn-fed Texos at $3.65@3.7 The supply of butchers' stock continties light and prices romain about the same. Desir- able fat cows and heifers are in_demand and sell readily on arrival. The cows went at a range of £2.15@3.25 and bulls at §1.90@3.00. There were a fow more northern feeders or stockers, but not natives enough to really test the market. The demand is pretty fair and it is no trouble at all to_dispose of any- thing desirable. A fow very desirable feed- ers sold at $3.30. Hogs. The hog market was active at an advance of 5c. The market opened with the buyers offering $1.40 for good heavy and light mixed loads and it was only as it became evident that the supply would fall short of the demand that the market took a sudden upward jump. Boston was a_liberal buyer of heavy hogs, which sold mostly at $1.40@ 4.45, and the light hog buyers were offering $4.50 for Yorkers, but were unabie to got them even at that price. Sheep. There woere no sheep here to make & mar- ket, but owing to the oversupply and slow and lower markets at eastern points tho feel- ing here would naturally be lower.
