o e THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. Wheat Starts Of the Now Year With Better Prices. SMALL BUSINESS DONE IN CORN. “Deliverios of Provisions on Janunary Contra Largely Exceed tations —~Cattle and More Active. Sxpece Hogs CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Cnicaco, Jan, 2 pocial Telegram to Tne Bgr.|—The new year started off with # show of activity in the wheat market and better prices ruied. The news bristled with bullish points. Cables were strong and ilgher, The murket looked and acted strong. Hutchinson has again shifted to the bull side, though he was openly a seller on the a vunce, cffering and selling a large quantity at and around s3'c for May, Dunn bought 700,000 bushels from him early at S3igc. Theve were other notablo transactions in the pit darmg the day, aad 100,000-bushel trades were ton numerous to keep track of. Indeed, thero was quite a loosening up of the trade. Detiveries were the first thing in order. About 400,000 bushels of wheat went arond, Teading in the pit did not begin until 10:80, when May was traded in on a basis of 8. The prico slowly worked up to S84 @SB3 ¢ and back to SI@s3’yc. It wus Pt back to 8315 and remained there a long time, finally closing, however, at 831(c, Jan- urry ranged oy closing at the 1n- oidn. As com ucsday, last prices for long futures showa gain of 3¢, Juanuary shows no chenge. Bus'ness in the corn pit was of no particu- ler significance and was small in volu me. Deliveries on contracts wero light and th ere was nothing in the outlook from abrood or elsewhere to cause any material changs in the views of speculators. There is stilla powertul contingent of local operators which Dhus its faith to lower prices and a numerous band which 18 willing to hold to the opposite opinion and which stands firm upon recent purchases. The evenly balanced state of the opposing elements is one cause of the present dull trade 1n speculative circles. The busi- ness dono was largely in changing from present to more deferred months and prices were not materially aite from those at the closa of the Tuesday market. January improved a little on a small quantity delivered on contracts and Feoruary was sympathetically steady, while May was con- fined to a range of 1-16¢ on either side of its formor value. The closing prices were: Jan- y February 295%c and May 06 were dul A mocerate BpeC but rirmly held, with only lative business recorded. Muj sold up 5c to 2214¢ under moderate in- quiry fur account of shorts and Jaouary touched 203, with sellers later at that. De- *“In provisions tho d mado on Jan- v uary contrects exceeded exvectations. They aggregated around 20,000 barrels of pork, 8,000,000 pounds of short ribs and 15,000 ticrces of lard. A large share of tho last , named article fell into the hands of the Anglo- American pucking company: The short ribs and pork passed out were scattered. ‘Tho product delivered, it was claimed, came llll‘s( from packers, who took that method =g Cepress the Junuary future 8o as to widen the carrying charges o later months to their wilvantage. 'Trading in the open market was confined largely to what is known as *‘chang- ing over.” Outside orders of all kinds were }mited and the day’s business possessed no ignifizance save to promise an early decline of interest in January, Property ‘held for this mouth was sold fraoly against purchuses for a_ later mouth, chiefly May. The day closed with prices compared with last Tues- day, final figures showing a shrinkage of 21gc on Kebruary pork and February und Muy short, ribs, 5c on January lard and 10c on January short ribs, May pork sold up be, while January pork and lard, recovering on the early break, rested uuchauged. For cash delivery lurd sold at &5.80@5.574¢ and boxed dry salted shoulders at $4.05. Sixteen pound graen hams were held at 7/4c. 1n a specula- tive way May was the pivotal* future. It #old at $).571¢(@Y.05 for pork, $6.0215@6.05 for lard and $4.55@4.57 for short Pork May at the close was at $0.65, lara at £0.05 und short ribs at $1.87i¢. Pork for January closed 55c, lard 25c and short ribs 821¢c under May. CHI10AGO LIVE STOCK.

New York, Jau, 2.—|Special Telegram to Tur IBeR|—Srocks—Tho etock - market tarted out the now year with less change in sentimént and prices than anticipated. The lines are clearly drawn, however, aud when the tight money hindrance is removed, as it must be soon, parties will fight more evenly for control of the market. Tho forenoon found money close and rates up 10@12 per cent, London bad resumed operations, both buying and selling speciultics, There was fair activity at the opening and for the first hour the business done was principally in six stocks—Lackawanos, Readis Now Euog- land and Missouri Pacifio in the regular list and Sugar and Lead among tho trusts, The otners were dull and generally uninteresung throughout. First prices were generally lower, and Pacific Mail showed a loss of i{ per ceot, while among the advances Jersey Central was up 1, The active stocks dis- played an advancing tendency in early deal. ags, but their advances were confiued to small fractions, with Lackawanna, Reading wad Missour: Pacific leading, Awmong the lower priced shares, however, Tenncssee Coal rose 1to80 and Chicago, St. Louis & Pitsburg 3 per cent. The weak spot in the market was Sugar Reflueries, which dropped from 50 at the opening to B7)y, though thus loss was afterward recov- ered. Lead was pegged at 2) for the firat half bour, after which 1t rose fractionally on an unusually large business for that stock. During the hour to noon the tone of deal- jnge continued strong aud a wmaterial im- provement was made among the active stocks, Lackawanna rising 3 per cent fur- ther, making a nel rise of 13§, while Read- ing reached 89 and Chicago, St. Laws & Pittsburg preferred 47. Sugar Reflueries becamo. weak again, but had uo lufluence upon the remaiuder of the wmarket Rates for call losns went fiying up to 40 per ceut or over again today aud caused some selling and some geveral depression in stocks be- fore the close.
