COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL Oorn 8huns Weakness in Other Grains and Oloses Up. NO ABATEMENT IN PROVISIONAL ADVANCE Hog Products Clean Gal Outs Succumb to Bea "" tors amnd Drep oOf. May 14.=Grain trade today was . Aragging contest between the bears, backed up by favorable weather for w and corn, and the bulls in the corn pit, wlho wore making good purchases on the 1l local movement. In the ¥ closed %c depressed, July corn %¢ higher and July oats W@%c lower. Provisions continue in their upward jour- ney and closed 100 to 12%c advanced. Festerday's bulls at the opening of the wheat pit today showed that they had for- gotten all about yl‘!|Pl’flug'l bullish gov- ernment report. The cables showed no response to strength here and above all the weather was very favorable. Rain fell coplously in Kansas and Nebraska and the spring country In the west was clear- ing. A local statisticlan mad ort in- dicating a_winter yleld of 410,000,000 bu., quite at variance with the government esti- mate yesterday. These factors started Jul & shade to %@l lower at T6%c to T6c an depressed {t early to 13%@T¥c. Corn trength and reports of xood <ush business rought & good reaciion and vilres for a fime held firm ne.r last nignts close. Trade, however, was light, the outside speculator was not {n the market and there was some fair selling by yesterday's buy- ers. Part of the reaction was due to ghort overing. Gradually prices slipped back. he Beptemeor and December options were noticeably weaker and materially widened Aheir spreads under July. The close was weak, with July %c lower, at 76! 0. Local recelpte were 22 cars, none of con- tract grade, and Minneapolls and Duluth reported 124 cars, making a total for the three pointa of 146, against 140 last week and 198 a year ago. Primary receipts were 8,000 bu.. against 326,000 last year. Sea- board clarances in wheat and flour equalled 166,000 bu. The seaboard reported 10 loads taken for export. Corn was the leader Bf the pits in the matter of strength. Weather was favor- ble and there were reports that the coun- would soon begin making freer de- liveries. Bmail receipts, however, seemed to reject this report, for the general run of cars has gotten down to about twenty- five for this polnt. ' Recelpta today’ were only 27 cars and at once influenced early buying. Several of the leading houses be- gan in_offerings that were made out of sympathy for the wheat weakness, but as s00n as the crowd saw the stuff was going into strong hands shorts covered and fair otiyity resulted. Cash business was good, B0 'Tolis Bougnt here and cables were firm and corn quickly developed independent strength, and July, which sold early ot 62%c, jumped to 6ic. Late profit-taking 100K oft gome of the gain and wheat weak- ness had a depressing effect. July closed firm, %c up, at 63%c. ©Oats were influenced by selling by the leading bull operators. Crop advices noted harvesting in North Carolina and ripening fields In Texas, but in general there was no change in the situation. Liberal cash sales were made for shipment and corn strength ave some ald to an otherwlse weak mar- et. Prices fluctuated very narrowly and July closed weak, %@%c lower, at 36%@ #7c. Recelpts were small at 6 cars. The strength in provisions was that of renewed’ buying and support by packers, supported by a lrflnf hog market at the yards. There was stlll talk of a decided upturn in lard and a leading house bought heavily of this product. Offerings were rather free on the advance, but the market ruled strong and higher. July pork closed 12%c up at $17.60, July lard 1oc_ higher at o imgus and July ribs 10c advanced at CHICAGO, .80, Eatimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat 15 cars; corn, 2 cars; oats, 105 cars; hog: H 20%G 17 35 fi e 103 9 50 970 9 72% 239 & o B33 H9n & *No 2 a0ld. bNew.

NEW YORK STOCKS AND BON —Firmer; No. Trading Dormant in Small Transactions. NEW YORK, May 14.—Today changes in prices of stocks were mostly gains, but the firmness of the market was passive and had no positive element In it 80 far as could be percelved. The tradin fell near tc the point of stagnation an the day's total transactions were smaller than for many months. Unfon Pacific made some show of strength and was far in the lead of all other stocks in point of activity. Gossip was in circula- tlon of an Intended increase in the dividend rate on the stock ; Crops and the anthracite coal miners convention which was in session at Hazle- ton to decide whether to make the condl- tional strike of the miners' permanent had a bearing on stocks. No light was thrown on the strike question before the close of the day, but the coal stocks shared gen- erally in the firmness. Another feature of the day was the wide recoveriea scored by some of the hlih priced s(ocke which, fell violently in the iquidation Monday. There were other high priced Btocks in the active list which sold today at wide declines from the previous sales. The money market was much quleter to- day and these was no seeming dificulty in obtaining call loans at 6 per cent of under. One cause of this was the much lighter demand for accommodation. The recent high rate has also had the effect of brinf- ing supplies. The process of borrowing in forelgn money markets was continued to- day, as indicated by the further decline in the sterling exchange market and the jump in New York exchange at Chicago from 2%c premium yesterday to 50c premium was @ sign of the active demand for remittance to New York from that center, which is reported also to be In progress from other domestic centers. The subtreasury require- ments on tne money market are much less than last week, partly owing to increased nsion payments. P la worthy of note also that the % ernment’s surplus revenue this month fs only about $1,000,000, compared with almost 3,000,000 for ‘the rcorresponding period of last year. Receipts from Internal revenue thus far this month are some $3,500,000 less than for the corresponding period last year. Inis decline is probably due to measures in anticipation of the repeal on July 1 next of the war taxes and this tendency will probably continue until the period of the repeal, thus relieving the money market of part of the requirement of the surplus revenue. Bonds were dull. but firm. Total sales, par value, $3,270.000. United States 3s de- clined % per cent on the last call.

The big bulk of the offerings this morning cont of beet steers, and the quality was _exceptionally good. Packers all seemed to be anxious for supplies and & result ‘the market was active and al higher. As a general thing the prices p looked b@l0c higher than yesterday. high as §7.10 was pald and a number of bunches brought $1.00. Today's advance carries good cattle to the high point of the year. Prime lightwelght cattle also sold o _good advantage and even the medium les commanded better prices than they id_yesterday. The market, in fact, was in very satisfactory shape ail around, and practically everything was disposed of at an_early hour. There was comparatively little cow stuff in the yards today, 8o that anything £09 was picked up in'a hurry, and in modt cases at an advance of 6@10c. The less de- sirable offerings were, of course, not in as od request as the commoner kinds, but still they also commanded strong prices as compared with yesterday. Bulls, veal calves and stags also sold at good, strong prices whera the quality was at_ail good. There were very few stockers and feed- ers in the yards today, and as the demand for desirable grades was in good shape just about steady prices were paid. The common kinds moved slowly, the same as usual, but still the pens were cleared in ‘season. The demand from the coun- 5 has been very 'light 8o far this week and yesterday only seven cars were shipped to the country. It is ‘thought, however, that the rains will improve the demand.

RATES FAVOR THE PACKERS Interstate Commerce Comm Begin Invi Charges. CHICAGO, May 14.—Chairman Knapp of the Interstate Commerce commission, which will begin an investigation of live stock rates here tomorrow. stated today that the investigation had no direct bearing on the government's proceedings against the so- called Beef trust. No packers will be in- vestigated. The investigation has to do with the ru- mors that rallroads are discriminating (paying rebates) in a way which is detri- mental to the Interests of Towa cattle ship- pers, and which unduly favors Omahs and other Miasourl river packers. The rate on live stock ic sald to be proportionately higher than the dressed beef rate, which gives an advantage to the packers nearest the source of supply. Des Moines & Fort Dodge Sold. NEW YORK, May 14.—W. L. Stow and E. 8. Hooley of this city said today that they had acquired a controling interest in the Des Molnes & Fort Dodge rallroad.
