CHICAGO, Trr, May 2.—Weakness and de- pression of ery pronounced character prevailed in wheat to-da; Apvarently the only buying was by fortune shorts aud even they displayed bat an indifferent inclination to purcnase. Improved seeding condl ns in the Northwest was, no doubt, one of the most important reasons why selling was in greater favor than buying. Next in point of consequenee was the smail shipments from both coasts for the week, 1,260,000 bushels, which were less even than the light ones of last week. Liverpool cables w re lower. Receipts in the Northwest were 301 cars, against 305 last Saturday and 322 & _year ago. Chicago received 18 cars and snspected out 66.400 bushels- Closing continental cables were irregular. Argen- tine shipments last week were 696,000 bushels. The Daily Trade Bulletin had 169 replies on win- ter wheat, embracing all the different sections de- voted to wheat. Improvement was reported by 141 of them and none by the other 29. Export Clearances were light at 141,000 bushels.

Traders could present no argument mo- mentous enough to overcome the depression con veyed by the tone of the ieading market. Busi- ness was largely in the way of selling out by hold- ers of July, who had changed from May yesterday or ve cently. Liver,ool cables were very weak and 14@35d lower.

Sales were heavy, running well up into the thou- sands of shares. A week ago this stock was worth only 38, and it did n0* bagin to rise until Wednes- day, Potosi was a Sror g sympathizer, of course, an advanced to 47¢, against S4c on Friday’s best figure.

Cal, &£ Va. mine auring the past week amounied (o 150 tons, and the average assay value of the same was $62 55 per ton, azaipst an output of 153 tons, of the aver- age value of $47 32, for the previous week. ‘The Crown Point, Occidental and Utah assess- ments fall delinguent in the board to-morrow, and the Bodie Con. and Seg. Beicher delinquent sales take place also. Mining assessments falling delinquent in May amount to $102.810, of which $15,000 {s for Call- fornia and $87,810 for Nevada mines. The Virginia Chronicle says of the Chollar ore strike: “The strike was made Wednesday in Choliar ground ana nad the effect of sending Chol- lar stock up to-day In_a:spirited manner. A de- posit of rich or+ was discovered in the sooth drify from No. 1 incline shaft on the 200 level. The drift is making toward the Occldental and the strike occurred in the face. Assays of the ore go as high as §80 per ton in gold and 850 in silver, and some fine-looking samples bave beed taken from the ledge.” The same paper says: “The appearance of the new ore body in the Occidental is still encourag- ing, und the new find in the Brunswick, being in the same locality, is cheering to both companies.” Following Are the Highest Prices During the Past Week.
