e T U RU S COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL Wheat Went Up and Down with Bewilder- ing Frequenoy Ye:terday. GENERAL FROSTS CAUSED THE STRENGTH ) Experlenced a Lively 1 tho First Hour, but Was O the Range for the Day Heing Exceedingly Narrow. o During et Later, CHICAGO, May 21.—Wheat went up and down with bewildering alacrity today, clos- fng with a %c gain, after an advance of and an equal decline. Frosts at home and abroad caused the strength and frecz- ing was responsible for the femporary reac tlons. July corn closed unchanged, vats un changed and provisions finished slightly higher In wheat there was a heavy trade and brord market, with prices very irregular Opening trades were at from %c to 1e¢ ad- vance, and after selling down rallied 1%e¢, broke 1%e, rallied %e, changed some and firm. The early strength came from the frost scare In the west. The stronger tone was considerably helped by private advices from abroad, reporting dam- age there by black frost. The decrease in the visible supply of 1,466,000 bu. also acted as a strengthening factor. A good many local longs sold out on the early rally and many went short. Pardridge was again a prominent seller during all the early morr ing, but these offerings were very readily absorbed by anxlous buyers, I'ree realizing wim responsible for the sharp break late but more buying firmed up the market at the close. Corn experienced a lively the first hour, but was quiet later, prices for the day covering but from %c to Hc range. The general tone was firmer, the sirength coming from the weather. Opening trades were at from %c to Yec advance, 80 1a up from %ec to %e, reacted from to Tic ruled firmer, changed some and closed as stated. The interest an e closed trade during in ocats centered in Septem- ber, which was bought freely early, and prices advanced from Y%e to %e. An in- crease in the offerings aml the decline in other grains created weakness and prices receded from %4c to He. A small reaction followed the bulge and the market closed quiet. Lower prices at the yards and hog re- ceipts largely in excess of the estimates caused a slight decline in values at the opening In provisions. The market soon firned up to near Saturday's closing figures on the boom in wheat and corn. It was extremely dull later on, with weakness in rosponse to the break in wheat. The mar- ket was very narrow. Just befdre the close there was some buying, values advancing to the outside figures of the day, with the closing strong for pork and lard and firm for ribs. Compared with Saturday night July pork Is G higher, July lard unchanged and July ribs 2tc higher. The leading futures ranged “Atticies. | Op Wheat, No. 2| Ma . | B 5 b5 503 BB 4! a7y A| D7xat | follows! 653 57i4 5896@H a7 27 383w 383 Sept... .. s Pork per bbi May. July.. Lard, 100 May..

NEW YORK, May 21.—The trading was active on the Stock exchange Wday from the opening till the closing of business, and the aggregate transactions were larger than on any day for months past and more widely distributed. A strong tone characterized the opening dealings, which was due to pur- chases for the foreign account as well as to the firmness of American securities on the London Stock exchange. There was good buying in all the arbitrage stocks during the morning, but during the afternoon a large percentage of these purchases were resold, which helped swell the volume of the selling movement, which the short interest manipu- lated. The first sign of weakness was shown in Sugar, which, afte an ad- vance of % per cent, broke 2% per cent on liquidating saiés for the ac- count of a belated bull whom the recent de- cline had forced to sell stock which he was holding for a rise. The gencral list sympa- thized with the depression in Sugar and de- clined % to 1. per cent, the latter in Sus- quehanna & Western preferred, the other industrials and grangers also participating In the reaction. A quick rally followed in which most of the losses were recovered. Sugar sold up 1% per cent, receded 5 per cent and recovered 18 per cent. The mar- ket became somewhat irregular about 11 o'clock, and shortly thereafter took another downward turn under the leadership of Northern Pacific preferred, which was heav- ily sold on a report that the plan of reor- ganization likely to be adopted would in- clude a heavy assessment on the preferred stock. An advance of % per cent had been made in the shares In the opening on Lon- don buying, and the break from the top was 4 per cent. Western selling of Chicago Gas resulted in a decline of 2% per cent from the best price of this morning, which was 11 per cent above Saturday’s closing. The grangers broke % to 13 per cent, the latter in Burlington, and Union Pacific and Read- ing 1% per cent, Sugar 1% per cent, and the rest of them % to 1 per cent. Before noon Northern Pacific preferred had rallied 1%, and the other shares which had re- ceded made a fractional recovery. After midday prices advanced for nearly an hour, the -improvement ranging to 1% per cent. About 1 o'clock the upward movement was checked, and a decline of % to 2% per cenf was_established. Before 2 o'clock a frac- tional rally took place, which was of brief duration, and under renewed selling prices again sought a lower level. After delivery hour an im oved tone was noticeable. Some few of the specialties were weak in the final trading, but the gemeral market, although lower than Saturday, closed firm. The Evening Post says: Perhaps the most important factor in determining the course of today’s market was the foreign brokers’ attitude. These houses did not, as they were apt to do, emphasize Saturday's final break in prices here by a weak and feverish movement. On the contrary London quota- tions for American stocks ruled today -be- fore the opening 1% points or more above the New York level. This recovery was doubtless largely due to orders from this side, possibly from shorts who wished to cover. The raflway and miscellaneous bond mar- ket was weak throughout the greater por- tion of the day, but some of the leading securities recovered sharply in the . final dealings. v The following are the closing quotatlons on the leading stocks of the New York ex- change today?

Sellers found conditions against them and most of them had to ac- cept prices a shade to 5e lower than Satur- day. ~ A few would not accept any decline and in consequence there were nearly 1,000 hogs in the pens at the close, part of themp. however, in speculators’ hands. Eastern markets were lower, supplies. were ample and_prospects good for plenty of hogs this week. Only one shipper was in the market and local houses were all more or less inde- pendent. “Cudahy, usually the biggest buyer, did not buy a hog.
