THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS Prices Struck the Lowest Point Recorded on the Last Crop. NEWS.WAS DISCOURAGING TO HOLDERS Down De- Jquidations Were Quite Free on th Tarn, and as There Was Littl mand Concessions Were Neces sarily Made, On1cAao, Til,, Feb, 3 —Yesterday's weakness In wheat was continued today and values struck the lowest po nt 8o far recorded on the lust crop. The chief depressing cause for some time has been the discoura ing situation abrond. Stocks fn Great Britaln and on the continent have been large, and the tendency 1n prices has been downward for the last two weeks. The Chillan war scare helped to main- taln prices on this side for a time. but now that trouble has been averted conservative traders here Go not look for any marked im- provement in values until the export demand wd European prices improve, unless the growing winter crop should show material damage. The trading in this market for som dnys has been lurgely of a scalping charac- ter. Pardridge has been conspleuous as the leader in this oline, selling on the advances and covering on the recessions at e or Mo profit. Ills transactions in this way and in the sale of “options” hive been enormous and the trade generally crodit him with having made in mense profits, somo dealers putting Ehem ak high 18 11,000,000, but theso, of course, 1t is probuble are exaggcrated. The niarket toduy was rather slow and de- cldedly Tower. There was littie in the way of news encouraging to holders and much that Was reverse. Cnbles were wenk, domestic markets heavy, the recelpts in the northwest Iberal and the export clearances moderate. “Theso wealk feutures, with the fact that the de- pression of yesterday brought inlarge selling Orders from outside points, caused the fower ovening. For a time the offerin:s were 8 |wnrl1-l|l|\n>u. Logan, Mit mino-Bodman, and others sel Ine very freely TAquidation was quite free on the down rup, and as there wus little demund concessi hiad to bo made to ind & market for it. Pa dridge wns nzain an ugeressive solior wnd hammered the market viclously, On the break somo of the early sellers began to cover and cubles coming stondier with i decrease of ove 1,000,000 bushels in the available supply re ported by Bradstreet's, there was u ral which carrled prices most to the cl price of yesterduy. Tho strenszth was Only momentary. HOWever a8 anotner ava- Tanehe of ofters quickly paralyzed the market and the downward movement was re- sumed and continued without reaction until the lowest price of the day touched. The confidence seomed to be wholly gone and this, Slth exhansted marging ung the vieious cournge displayed by the bears. was disas- rous to holders. By the break Pardridge and other shorts began fo cover und take their profits Tiverally eausing o raliy to wedium wures, In spite of late weak nnd lower cables, ®nd the close was stendy at the reaction May opened at from 88lo to B83e against 80'5c nt the close yesterduy, settlvd around bottom figures for a time, then advanced to 8dc, broke o 88e, rallied nnd closed at 8&igc. Corn showed declded strongth at the start and was going up steadily until the weakness fn wheat beeame pronounced, wlhen 1t came to a standstill. then receded in sympathy and closed at bottom figures, with prices un- chunged to a shude lower in_cowmparison with yosterany.

Tog products wero lower although the re- ceipts of hogs were smaller than expec and pricesat the yards highor. The weak- ness in other speculative pits had a tendency to pull down provisions, but the chief cause of the wenkness was the receipts of lurge out- side orders to sell short ribs.
