\ \ y THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. Wheat and Corn Heavy and the Prices Lower. FAIR TIMES FOR THE BEARS, More 8taff Damped Into the Pit Than the Bulls Could Carry—Oats, Provisions and Oattle Follow. CRHICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Cnicaco, May 10.—[Special Telogram to Tar Bee.]—Wheat was narrow but more active, to-day, than it was Monday or Tues- day. Crop reports came in from everywhere in the most encouraging way. Only occa- slonally were advices from the country indi- cative of poor or spotted conditions, There is more rain in the northwest and cool ‘weather; and the Ohio valley is now in the full enjoyment of what it has been craving and praying for—moisture. The cables re- flect quiet foreign markots, and New York fails to report anything like the new export business that mizht naturally be expected Wwith prices as low as they now are. The seaboard clearances of both wheat and flour were liberal, according to the postings. The mar ruled heavy the day through, and the prospective big crop looked very much like a certaioty to-day. Leastwise, the bearish individuals were selling as though & 600,000,000-bushel crop had been safely harvested and warehoused, and the bulls had neither spirit nor money to buck the current. The conditions were all bearish and it was useless to try and see anything else but heaviness in specula tion, that is speculation as reflected on ’change. The opening range was 83lgc for May, 82 for June, and 774¢c for July, a shrinkage in values of about %c over night. There was some action in June carly, and sales at 817¢ @s2lgc; and in a little while the prico was run to §2}ge, apparently for effect on July, for with the withdrawal of ‘‘muscle” the price dropped back, and eventually it got s low us 8030, July ranged from 719 to for the better part of two hours, but thc pressuro proved 100 great and a break to 150 followed. At and around 77c a gread mass of wheat came on the market, on_ex- haustive margins and stop orders. The bat- tle of the session was around 77c. At that figure and fractionally under there was buy- ing on a large scale by strong people, but the amount of stuff that was dumped out proved more than the market could take, and the result was further yielding of ‘values. The dead weight of unlimited long and sbort wheat was irresistible. The mar- ket had next o no outside support, and the best local help it had came from the shorts s who were able to cover ou such advantageous put out terms that they were inspired to fresh lines. During the last fifteen m of the session, July sold down to 765¢c at the close was quoted at 7647c, a 1088 of 11 on the day. May rested at 82¢, June at 80i;c and September at 74ige. The trade during the final hour was very heavy, It was un- mistakably liauidation, helped along, of course, by freo speculative offerings. The break in prices has brought the market right down close to some good-sized open orders and at the end of the regular session negotia- tions were in progress hetween the buyers and sellers with u fair prospect of cash busi- ness resulting. Some semblance of excite- ment was occasioned about noon by a dis- atch from New York that o cargo of 60,000 ushels of wheat had beon sold to go to the Argentine Republic. It was subsequently explained that this wheat was for seed, and thus divested of its bullish coloring the bulls had no further use éor the item. The demand for spot corn and its com- parative scarcity here were the principal cupperting items in the corn market, and on the other side were arrayed the very weak fecling in wheat, the magnificent growing weather, and the downward tendency of outside domestic markets. Thero was ulso 10 the credit of the bull side of tho argument, 8 good inquiry from exporters at the sea’ board, but this was in the face of weaker foreign advances. Continued heavy clear- ances from here are an offsct to the increas- ing receipts. The market was fairly active all day, and was at its weakest point towards tho close. Thero was good huying carly in the day by strong parties; but, with such de- cided slumpiness in wheat and nothing 1n sight of an opposite churacter in favor of corn, holders weakened and offerings were quite heavy in the last Afteen minutes and the close was weak at about the bottom figures of the day. The decline since yester- day was from }{¢ to }gc per bushel on active futures. In oats a large speculative business was recorded, with July the pivotal future. The market was steady, carly, undergood buying by a permanent operator with a later weak- ness Bdeveloped and a decline of d@igo from the top prices. The generally warm and favorable growing weather exerted a downward tendency and called ont plenty of sollers, After the initial trading at 23k 2330, July sold off at 22%o, with deferred futures dull at nearly the same range. May ‘was bought in exchange for June at 'g¢ pre- mium for the latter, with May at 23c. Re- ceints were again liberal, while nothing of consequence was reported as withdrawn from store, and No. 2 regular was dull at about 23%;¢, with car lots to go there sale- ble at points above. In provisions easier prices wero again tho ruler. Considering, however, the severe break suffered in hogs, which sold off from 15¢ to 20c, the day’s depression wus remarka- biy small. Inlard it was only 2ige, and in short ribs be, while pork closed the same as ‘esu-rduy to 5¢ lower for more extended de- very. CHICAGO LIVE STOCA MARKET CricAGo, May 10.—[Special Telegram to Tue Bee.|—Carrie.—The general market was to-day quiet and weaker. Prices in some cases were low and light cautle, as on yestorday, suffered more than good heavy ones, Light cattle were in farr demand at nearly steady rates, and heavy cattle of poor quality were slow of sale at 10c decline, Bome choice 1,250 to 1,850 pound cattle sold pretty well, but buyers were more particu- lar, to-day, and selected their cattle closely, Choice to extra becves, $4.10@4.85; medium to good steers, 1,200 to 1,350 1bs, $3.65@4.10; 1,200 to 1,350 1bs, §3.50(3 050 to 1,200 lbs, $3.40@3.585,; stockers and feoders, §2.50@3.10; cows, bulls and mixed B@3.80; bulk, $2.40@2.50; Texas steers, $2.50@3.00. Hous—-Lower prices, excessive supplios, and dull trade again characterized the hog market to-day. At the opening, this morn- ing, prime heavy shupes sold at $4.25, and some light sorts at #.40; but later, buyers would only pay .20 for the primest seleo- tion of butehers' pigs or shipping heavy ; #.10 (@4.15 for tho best pucking grades, and $4.35 for Ihn cholcest light sorts. These quots Lol 15@0c lower than yestorday morn- ing’ ummw\ion and 45@d0c below last Monday’s openingsales. 1t is estimated that with the hogs held over from yesterday there must have been 48,000 hogs on to-day’ wmarket, of which number less than 20,000 will have to be carried over to-night, the market closing active, FIN .\ NOIAL. New Yonk, Mu.y 16.—[Specinl Telegram to Tus HBee. oks—When operations were resumed on the stock exchange this worning, the only really active stocks were Chicago Gus, Oregon Transcontinental, St. Paul and Lackawanna. At first prices were irregblar, Rock Islaud was off 3§ per cent and Jersey Central up 3¢ per cent from last night. Most of the stocks which showed an- Jmation or changed yesteraay were sbout steady. The best iuterest of the morning was in Ouegon stock, which spld durieg the first hour at 343§ und 8514, The feeling was nervous, without resulting in much business. Phe strength in Chicago Gas put the price up 10 6336, but there was & wielding from twms fgure later. At 11 o'clock the market was quiet, but firm, at better thau the opening figures. ‘Ihe first partof the hour to 12 o'clock was dull, with Transcontinental th principsl feature, Toward noon there wis & very general strangth noticeable, and Bur- lington led the list and sold above par on a large business. Rock Island moved up to 97. Other stocks showed fair gains, and at md- day the best pricesof the morning were firmly held.

There were, however, quite a good many trades at #4.00. The packers evidently wanted the hogs, and were ready to take them at the money, and the market was mrly active, & clearance being. effected before mid-day. The market upon the whole was a big 10c lower than yesterday, or 30¢ lower than at the opening of the week, and 40c lower than on Thuraday of lust week.
