THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. ‘Wheat Went Off a Cent Again Yee- terday. DEPRESSED EXPORT ADVICES. Favorable Crop News Combines to Down Prices—Corn Makes a Slight Advance—Proyisions Strong—Cattle and Hogs. CRICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Cnicaco, May 21.—[Special ‘I'elegram to Tne Bee.|—The wheat market dragged to- day, and prices went lower, the day’s shrink- age amounting to }gc to 1 cent. Cash and June wheat acted weaker than long futures, though very littlo animation was shown at any pointof the line. Cables were depressed, and the lower sea board markets had noth- ing good to report. Exports were small, and no new business was done to amount to any- thing. Hints are heard about arrangements having been made to shipout a large quan- tity of inferior wheat that is oppressing the New York market, but gossip to that effect carries little weight. Another thing that is beginning to be talked about in shipping cir- cles is the actual scarcity of ocean vessels. The actual scarcity of foreign buying orders 18 probably causing quite as much anxioty as the lack of freight room, just at this moment, but the suggestion is a cruel one to make. July wheat opened at 76)(c, and there was quite a desire for wheat at that figure. The price got to 77¢, when the offerings increased and the market slowly yielded. There was good buying all the way down, but the rallies were feeble, and the decline had very little interruption, though it was gradual and un- accompanied by any special excitement. “Hutch” figured as o heavy open seller from thio beginning to the end of the session, He secmed bent on forciug a decline, not by raiding so much as by a sheer pressure, adding to the dead weight, as it were. His selling brought out considerable weakness 10 those who held long wheat, and encour- aged free speculative selling by the bears. At the same time it was observed that many of the stronger commission houses were hcavy buyers, notably the Boyds, Schwartz, Weares, Jones, Kennett, Irwin, and some of the local traders like J. Bryant and Tuttle, The market kept set- tling, however, until 76'jc was reached, from which point there was ¢ recovery. The gain was not much and the price worked down to T63¢c. This seemed to be about as low as anybody cared to press the market, and a fractional rally ensued. The close was 70}c. The feeling throughout the session was that of heaviness and weak- ness, Oneof the leading bears expressed bis view of the situation in this terse phrase: he market will sell lower but the price is t0o low to sell wheat at.” May wheat, which closed at 83c, yesterday, opened at 82!jc, scld down to 82¢, and closed there. June opened at 80'¢c, sold off at 79%{c and closed at80c. Decomber ranged from 7T5}K@idkge and closed at As compared with yes- terday, the closing shows u sirinkage of lc in May and June, ge in July, and ¢ in De- cember. The only crop news that were lis- tened to were favorable news. A farmer from southern Wisconsin br htin reports of chinch bugs, and to for! his statements produced a fruit can full of sections of old corn stalks in which were to be seen millions of insects in the process of hatching. He said the bugs were already begining to work on wheat and rye. Kansas City contributed a bateh of exports Lo the fund of chinch bug information but as yet nobody is paying any attention to this Sort of news or warning, Crop reports, as a rule, are full of splendid promise; everything looks rosy. There properly everything looks green, Tbhe exports were 42,502 bushels; and, including flour reduced to its equivalent in wheat, it aggregated 82,162 bushels. There were inspected into store, since the last ex- port, 28 cars; of which 5 were No. 2. The outward inspection was 58,042 bushels of winter and 8,110 bushels of spring wheat. The receipts of corn for the past twenty- four hours, according to the ofticial roturns, were 502,370 bushels and the shipments were 2 bushels. The exports from the three pal scaports were 37,109 bushels. The ton into store since the last report was of which 1,027 cars were No. 2; 3 bushels were inspected out. There was a fair activity in the corn market and at remarkably steady prices, in view of the recent heavy receipts. The closing fig- ures show @ gain since yesterday of 4 @'4c in spot corn, and about the same in futures, The heavy receipts, predicted yesterday, Were confirmed by the returns from the in- spection sheets this morning, 1,327 cars being a phenominal quantity, The demand from the shorts maintained thggrice in the face of such heavy arrivals, TIN price showing no evidence of yielding further, created a feel- ing among the outsiders who had done a great deal of yesterday’s selling, that if the ))rlw should not break under such receipts it. might be expected to advance should they slack up: and it was on this theory they considered purchasers ought to go prudent rather than make further sales. The foreign markets, and home centres as well, were de- ressed by the weight of the arrivals here, flx.mn clearances were light from the At- Jantic ports, but were fair from New Orleans, 172,000 bushels having cleared from theré yem!r(my for Rouen. Oats were quiet but firm, especially for de- liveries beyond this month, which were of- fered rather sparingly. All.hmlgh continued large receipts indicated plenty of old oats remaining 1n the country to come forward there is u lack of much disposition to sell short at the low prlco now ruling, July, to- day, sold up ic to 22igc, with a later quie- lluh' while June and & npwmb» were about Jge discount. Offerings of May were in- ased dopressing the price hmuly 140, sell- ing at 225c, imd at 225¢c, with 22ge paid for car lots of No. 2 to go in store. Tlie out in- Epection was large, nggregating 255,000 bush- els, and of 800 cars in ed in and out, 45 passed into contract es. Proyisions rather surprised the general trade in their movements. Notwithstanding that hoga sold off 5e from yesterday’s range of prices the produce market exhibited an increased strength and ruled higher. Ad- vices from the stock yards losttheir potency. In-traders were voverned wholly by what may be said to be “pit” influence. Consid- erable property was bought by brokers, said 10 be representatives of leading houses and, as several of the old contingent of bears cov- ered freely, an uncasy feeling was devel- opunl, ‘The buying witnessed was believed to® be outside of the ordinagy lines and an impression gained ground that plans were being arranged for @ bull turn in the near future, ‘the long side, at all events, was looked upon with great favor and from the start u very sensitive condition of affairs ex- isted. Prices were a little weak for a short time at the opening, but they advanced rap- idly subsequently, and closed substantially higher. In pork the improvement actually established was a galn of 5¢ to h)‘t. in lard of 2140 10 5o, and in short ribs of dc. CHICAGO LIVE SIOOR MARKED Cuicaco, May 21 pecial Tolegram to Tux Bee]—Carrie—The general market £ ¢ uative steors developed but little hfe to- day, the movement being slow and the de- mand irregular. Nevertheless holders of ripe drives of cattle, that did not “tail dowa” 100 badly, secured strong yesterday's prices, but the bulk of offerings of dressed beet, shipping and export grades, though moderate, broved more or less roughish and lacked style, consequently they were not at- tractive to buyers, wnd sold dragglngly at Tarely steady rates. Native cows woere scarce and made excellent figures, particu- larly for heifers and yearlings, Calves were slow of sale, Bulls were in far supply and dontand, at formor quotations. The Texi branci of tho mavket conwained about 1,800 head, and 4s the supply of native canning a1 hachoring grades was timid, sellers of runge cuttle met with good dewsud at about steady quotations. The stockers and feed- ers branch early raled dull, but in the after- noon several Illinois and Ohio buyers en- tered the market and operated with consid- erable freedom, paying siron pricss.

Little of the excellent strenth shown on Monday remained, and the losses over night ranged from ' to 3¢ per cent, throughout the list with Oregon Trans- continental off ¥ to88. The list, on the whole, was duil as well as weak. The ex- ceptions were the features of the morning. The best strength was in Chicago Gas Trusts, which moved up nearly 2 per cent to 543{. The only active shares were Burling: ton & Quincy, which went off nearly 1 per cent 1o 1.01%, butrecovered to 10214: Cotton Oil lost 1 per cent to 55%; Rock Isiand lost 8¢1 Atchison and St. Paul }¢ cach; Trans- continental slipped off, a point at a time, from 58 to 85, At 11 o'clock prices were at about vhe lowest figures, with the market barely steady. During the hour to 12 0'clock Northern Pacific stocks, which bad been fairly active in the early hours, failed to re- cover the declines, and other stocks came to the front. Chicago Gas held strong. Bur- lington and Rock Island recovered the losses of the morning, and the firmer feeling re- sulted in general advances, which left prices at uoon better than at the opening. The in- terest in stocks inoreased after 12 o'clock, and some very good advances were made, while the volume of the trading was unusu- ally large. Realizing caused a reaction in Northern Pacific shares, and at the close there was a loss for the day of 5 in the com- mon and 1 per cent in vreferred stock.

Oattte. Tuesday, May 21, 1880, There was not such a_very great chance in the cattle market to-da and yet there was a weaker fecling. Aithough the scllers in some instances thought they reccived about steady prices, the majority were call- ing it lower, Taking the market as a whole it wouid be safe to call it a little lower. As has been the rule lately, it was the tidy little cattle which sold the most raadily, and at the best prices provortionately. The heavy cattle were the least sought after, and no one seemed to want coarse westerns. Thin lit tle cattle were ulso slow sale. Th { and shipping steers sold at a range of 5@ 1.00, but principally at £3.606@1.55, Butchers' stock commanded fully steady prices, One bunch of grade yearlings and heifers sold at §5.90. The cows went at prices ranging from $L.75@3.25; but mostly at The few bulls on sale brought $1 There were not many feeders nad stockers on sale,but the as considers.ble inquil good cattle of that description. The buyers, however, appurently want the cattle at a Jit- tlo less mioney than they have been paying. A few odds and ends sold at £2.00@@ 3,10, Al though the receipts of cattle were large to- the yards were pretty well cleared, a Vl:lrdy lurge proportion of the offerings being 80 Hous. ‘The receipts of hogs were heavy and the market 5w10c lower, Tho light hogs sold Jargely at £1.25, or about be lower, but the packers wanted to buy heavy hogs H@l0c lower, and they got the reduction which they wanted. The sulesmen, however, were 8low to make the concession, and the trade dragged all the morning, it being midday be- fore a clearance was effected. Sheep.

Evarts, writing from Kingfisher, I. T., sayé that he has secured a half section townsite for the Omaha colony in the best part of Oklahoma, being midway between the two Canadian rivers and Renoand Okla- homa City. He has named ‘the embryo city Columbia, and will have it platted and ready for occupancy by May 20, It stands, he says, on 8 well-watered prominence, over- looking the two rivers and in the center of the richest agricultural region in Indian ter- ritory. There is no speculation in the deal, he claims, a8 the proceeds of the sale of lots will be applied for the public welfare, the land being held and sold in trust for the cit- izens 1o whom the title will be transmitted by the government. ——— Where He Got the Rum, Itis claimed that Siegel Olson, the bar- keeper for M. P. Winn, sold hiquor at his home, 2521 Caldwell street, Sunday morning. This is the place where George Johnson gct 80 drunk and narrowly escaped being killed.
