THE SPECULATIVE NARKETS. Wheat Not Influenced By the Un- favorable Weathor Reports. GREAT COMPLAINT OF DULLNESS Corn and Oats Closed Yesterday a Trifle Higher—Provisions Were Unchanged-—-Oattle and CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Cnicaco, May 31.—(Special 'Telegram to Tne Bre.]—The wheat market had a vigor- ous start this morning on storm news; +nd July, which opened at 767¢c, advanced to 77l5¢, with excellent local and general by ing. Suddenly a lot of wheat from som source came on the market and there was a pause, Then Linn sold a round lot and values began to ease off. 'This dropping of values was noticed first in cash and June, which ope! 1ge to e lower than Wednes- day’s closing. There were sales of May at 4iljc and of June at ¢e. This end of the market railied presently, and during a large part of the session it held stoady around Tidc, with Sales as high as 8l The tone of the market lowered after the speculative atmosphere cleared a little, and there was a wvery light business passing. Storn) reports formed the chief theme of conversation and discussion, A study of the weather map re- wvoaled the fact that the storm of yesterday, last night, and to-day, did not extend ove the northwestern or spring wheat area to any extent, and that it did not extend south- west far enough to damage the wheat which is approaching the last stages of develop- ment. Throughout the territory where tho vain-fall was greatest, wheat may perhaps be 1n a position to stand a storm without in- jurg; such, at least, seoms to be the con- clusion reached. Crop reports from the northwest are not favorable, however. As to actual wheat, it keeps coming in mode- rately, at Minneapolis and other primary points, and it does not go out of the country moderately; even while some consumers are buying from hand to mouth. This gives to the whole list an_appearance of weakness. This may only be a dullness, after all, for prices are dragging along in about the same narrow groove now as they have for a month past, but in a speculative sense, dullness has come to be understood as a term synonomous with weakness, July wheat sold down to 763, and for nearly two long hours the price hung from 763(@765{c, with the trad- ing only between the u(ulpcn, Along towards 10'clock the market slipped down a notch, but halted at 76%@ c, and rallied frac- tionally, closing just a shade above the bot- tom, at 70%c. There was some life in De- cember and the year wheat, but not . The December range was i0l5@ 8¢c, and the close was 76dc. Other months closed at 7i%c for May and June, 743 for September, and 76%c for Decem- ber. As compared with Wednesday, the final price showed a very slight advance on the entire list, except May and June, which are J@gc lower. The wires did not work well, and the board’s cable did not come in time for posting; and communication with other sections of the outside world was more or less interrupted. The few private cables received indicated no change in the situation. There was universal dullness in the do- mestic corn markets, and, though there was more outside buying than has been seen for som> time, the nervousness of the short sel- lers was tho most stimulating factor in the speculative trade. May delivery was in es- pecially zooa demand, near the opening, but when the cash offerings came upon the mar- ket it quickly dropped to the level of the rice for carloads. The net gains for the ; were from Jgc, on near deliveries, to ifc on more remote. In oats a liberal speculative business was recorded, at prices averaging 15 to I{c higher than Wednesday’s close. The elevator men werc free buyers with a moderate aemand noted for account ot the shorts. There was no pressure to sell, as the strength in other csreals, consequent on the continued cold and wet weather was reflected in oats. The attempted corner in May long since retrcated and the month closed featureless. aside from the fact that it was about }{c discount from Juune. The 1ast named sold as his 221{c, later ruling easier, with July at 2 and Septem- ber selling as high us 2 No. 2 oats to ere quict and wbout ¢ higher, The posted ln'!vuuenl was de- n volume, Provision traders were in a waiting mood. 1t being the last day of the month, they were disinclined to branch out, until the changes Incident to the opening of the new month were made. Deliveries ou June contracts appear to be an uncertain factor for the near future, while the monthly stock showing is > ng more than passing attention. It is pretty generally believed, however, that the umount of pork on hand in this city at the resent time approximates 100,000 bis; of ard, 27,000 tierces, and of short ribs, £5,000,000 1bs. In to-day's trade thero was no life. Some old deals for near delivery were settled, and contracts, to a moderate extent, were transferred, but busivess was slow. Outside orders of all kinds were noticably small and of little con- sequence. For cash delivery the buying was also moderate. Compared - with Wedunesday last, tho closings were unchanged to b higher for pork; unchanged to 2igc lower for 1ard, and 2igc easier for short ribs. CH1ICAGO LIVE SPOCR MARKET. Cuicaao, May 81.—[Special Telegram to Tae Brr.]—Carrie.--The market was ac- tive and took a slight upturn on light and handy steers, such as are always in demand Dby exporters, shippers and dressed beef oper- ators. Heavy steers also sold a shade stronger, and the market was quick, with everything desirable sold out before the close. Therun of Texans was light, and limited to about 40 cars, or about 1,000 head, all of which sold a shade better than for the last few days, Native butchers' stock, es- pecially desirable cows aud heifers, such as 1he city butchers and dressed beef trade can use, ure selling at stroug prices; about us high as ot any time.

The demand Was pi uu{ Rgood and becves of desirable quality 80} a little_stronger. Heavy cattle were apparontly in belter request t.hnn they have been on m-u&‘du.\'- of late and quite a string went at $.90, and one buunch at $4.10. Common light cattle, rough or unfinished are selling very badly, the demand baving fallen off very suddenly, aud they can only be disposed of at a sacritice, The beef and shapping steers were sold at prices ranging s but pemcipally at 88.70@ # e quality of the cattle, which was very good, accounts in part for the appar- ouly nxh prices paid, Hutchers' stock dia uol show any muterial chiw: in prices, cows selling at $2.25@3.00 and bulls at $2.25 @290, Stocksrs and fecders were very scarco and the trading was limited to the | sale of n few odds anu ends. Hozs, Tho day's supply was somewhat heavier than many had anticipated, and, although eastern advices gave stronger markets, salesmen_wera willing to mccept Astea prices, On this basis the trade was qu brisk at the opeming, so far as the hest light and heavy hogs were concerned, at least. Tho early salos wore largely at $1.15 @4.20, with a teade at $.223¢ and $4.95. The light hog buyers and shippers did & good shure of the early buying, while some of the heaviest packers were on the bear side of tie deal and were asking a concession from yesterduy’s prices, In this they wore very materially nssisied by the later reports from Chicago, which ndicated the advance of the After about hall of the hogs usold the trade cased up. All that the puckors wanted to_ give for the balan was £L.15, but as tho salesmen were not pro. parod to make any concession the trade was slow. it was afforaoon bofore a cloar wa i. In the end the buyers did not succeed in making much of an impression on | tho market, aithough they did a good deat of b pounding.
