E COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL | Prices Revive After Wednesday's Blump | and All Pits Olose Up, IN PROVISION Ioi6 GAINS MARKET Freely News Ignored rength with Little Staf O CHICAGO, May 8.1t in the grain markets much hesitation early tions, but the situation did not fresh pressure; cash business and prices made good advance uly wheat closed o up; July corn, N higher, and yily oate dc advanced.” Fro visions closed to ¢ higher. Hears who had been hammering wheat prices on favorable weather conditions found too many bull factors arrayed against them today. The weather was #0od over nearly all the wheat belt and statistical journals issued bearishly fa- vorable crop news, but receipts were very small and the cash situation was very strong. Cables also were comparatively firm when the depression was taken into consideration. After an early see-saw in prices bulls took hold firmly” and worked vances. The cash situation has gradu- ly developed a strength that the traders #ay probably will influence speculation for some time. Elevators have ali the wheat in sight, the country is offering little and the elevator people have sold much of thelr holdings at July prices rather than at the lower May prices. The result has been a scarcity of cash wheat at the re- cently current May figure. Today's prices in outside markets advanced above July and at one time here almost equaled them. Added to this was a good corn atrength. Good cash sales were made late, fourteen loads being taken for export here. Shorts covered freely and July, which opened W@%c to 4@%c up at T4%e to T4%e, sold up to Wic and closed o up at 75%c. Receipts, 23 cars, none con- tract; Minneapolis and Duluth reported 101 cars, & total for the three points of 124 cars, against 251 cars last week and 230 cars a_year ago. Primary receipts were 180,000 bushels, compared to 362 cars last car. Seaboard clearances equaled 384,000 hushels, Corn ruled strongest of the grains today and made good advances. The slump was not_responded to by the foreign markets and elthough all outside news on the crop sit- uation was exceedingiy bearish, everything on the situation favored the bears. There is little corn outstanding. recelpts continue small and the leading bull house is cred- ited with holding twice as much long corn ns there is old stuff visible. After hesi tating for a time at the opening '‘tallers again took the bullish view of the mar- ket and bought liberally shorts covered and then the bull leaders sent prices uj further by taking in stft in kood quanti- ties. Traders generally regarded the posi- tion of the bull party as such that at any open buying by it the crowd quickly fol- iows. July early sold as low as 60i4c, ad- vanced to 61%c and after some liquidation for profits closed firm, Ha%c up at 614@ '61%c. Receipts, 135 cars. B5ie a1 not have much atrength of their own. The early market was weak on fa- vorable crop reports, but open buying of July by the prominent oull operator in May options started a buying movement. rJuly sold early at 36c, advanced to 36%c closed firm, %c up at 38%c. Recelpts, 135 cars. Provisions were influenced for good ad- vances by a continuation of the demand that has marked the pit for several days. The hog market was strong and packers gave the pit good support. Liquidation was in the shape of outside profit taking. Corn strength also helped in the upturn. July pork closed be higher at $17.35; July jard, 194e up at $10.22%, and July ribe 12i4c was buyers' day today. There was on_weather condi- rrant od higher at $9.66 ¢ Bstimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat, 50 cars; corn, % cars; oats, 160 cars; hogs, 19,000 head.

A more cheerful feeling over the anthracite out- look is responsible for considerable rebuy ing by short seilers of yesterday, profess® confidence last night that a strike could not be averted. 'The active coalers re- flected no misgiving for the announcement of the ‘miners officers o arbitrate, but {hey fell into comparative dullness.' The high-priced coalers offered the anomaly of the early trading, while the Readings were advancing and a strong recovery. owing to the demand for Readings had largely died out. The whole market fell into dullness in the latter part of the day, while walting for the announcement of thé reply of the an- thracite operators to the offer of _the miners. The result Is that the day's trans- actions are not more than half those of yesterday. Outstde 'the Readings the principal ac- tivity was in 8t. Paul, Unlon Pacific. the tocal tractions "and ‘Southern Railway. Union Pacific and St. Paul were bought heavily for western account, the attrac- tion belng attributed to crop conditions. The referee’s declslon upholding the con- stitutionality of the New York franchise tax law Induced some active liquidation of the stocks of New York publlc utllitles, but they were well supported and rallied.

There were evidences of strength amon various minor stocks, which are supposed to be the subject of manipulation by spec- ulative ' pools, although - various ‘rumors continued to circulate of thelr prospective absorption and merging. Tennessee Coal and Colorado Fuel were under pressure. The last named, however, recovered 1o well above last night. International Power fell 9 points below the last sale price, but tully recovered. There was a_sale of Bt, Lawrence & Adirondack at &2, compared with the preceding eale at 133% This sale was before the collapse of the Webb-Meyer stocks.

As will be seen from the table of receipts above the supply for the four days this week are only about half as large as for the same days of last year, and as compared with the same days of last week there Is also a big decroase. There was a good demand {his morning for beef steers showing quality, and the market on such kinda could safely be woled stronger than it was yesterday. hen It came to those that were not qui finished, however, it was a different pro sition, and trade 'on such kinds was rather slow and the prices pald did not 100k much more than eteady with yesterday. Thers was a prime bunch of cattle on sale this morning that brought §7.10, which is highest price paid here ihls"year. ‘T were fancy, though, and weighed 1850 pounds. The cow market was active ond strong this morning all around. The better the quality the better the demand, but still even the medium and common kinds sold without much trouble at steady to strong prices. As noted yesterday, the trada 1o yery uneven owing to the rapia fuctuati that have taken place within the last fe: days, 80 that some sales look a good deal higher than others. It is a good deal of a cateh-as-catch-can market. ulls, veal calves and stags of good quality’ all commanded steady to strong prices today. There were only a few stockers and feed- ers on sale this morning, and anything desirable =old at just about steady prices as compared with yesterday. The demand from the country is not rushing, as ls shown by the fact that there were only 13 cars of cattle shipped to the country yesterday, Representative sales: BEEF STEERS. 1,995 2,241 439 Av. . ....-.-: LT L T T sea22238es3eeTTsssundsy 30 STEERS AND HEIFERS, L1298 690 I L 33 HH e e e g a3sssensns223as22552328sR8ss A ;e s§y §E538iisE ss EmERinms 1100 STOCK COWS AND HEIFERS, [} %01 31 a6 560 2 s e 3 s5g 192 a1 ERS. » AND FEED! ) ‘ LTS 228 ssum 3 EszEasdes 1 ;...
