Big Run of Wheat In Here Again,
but Little Effect
Follows.
Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, May 22.
Wheat piled in heie again this morning, 3o9
cars showing up against 233. First effect upon
the market was nothing. Unlike the posting or
Saturday, A hen 20O cars against 80 broke the
price the e\ccss loceipts of today had no weight
and so far from breaking the market sold at
84%e for September on early trades, and some
went to 83M.C July going to *1.06*4-
cause of the strength appeared to lie principally
In the southwest. Keports were decidedly less
favorable on the whole than for some time, and
the trade went over more to the strong side, ac
cepting the leports as meaning the lowering of
the general nromise of winter wheat from a
bumper ro to only an ordinary good one, and
the setting back of the plant sufficiently to make
the average stand only up to the overage Instead
of a fortnight in advance. The run of news
is so conflicting that traders have hesitated and
between the evtreines of good and bad have
clung to the government repot of May 10 as the
guide. Today there was more disposition to take
the reports seriously. H. V. Jones returned from
the southwest and his summary of conditions was
less optimistic than might have been expected
trom earlier reports from other sources. Te
eees a good crop, but nothing to break records
and burden the trade with wheat. On the con
trary, hs believes the exhaustion of stocks of old
wheat is so complete that there will be early de
mand enough to absorb all wheat offered with
out much of depressing effect upon prices.
Chicago had excited bull markets in May wheat
and May corn and other markets followed but
Chicago was so wild that traders feared to follow
too closely.
Receipts at Kansas City were 43,000 bu against
63,000, and at St. Louis 39,000 against 20,000.
Duluth had 3 against 1 and Chicago 2 against 2.
Primary receipts totaled 437,000 bu against 337,-
000. Clearances wheat and flour, 40,000 bu.
Nicollett of Kansas City wired: "Kansas re
ports look bad. Good people who are not crop
killers are talking 10 to 2u bu per acie foi the
wheat belt of Iv.msas. The Union Pacific report,
this morning indicate a 70 per cent condition. It
looks as tho 75,000,000 bu would be maximum of

The ticker says: "Country sales of corn in Ne
braska are increasing, and there fs a fair move
ment. There Is no chance at present for any
of this corn coming to Chicago, as feeders and
millers are paying better than the July price and
bids are not going out on the May basis. It is
thought, however, if the movement keeps up for
a week or so the feeding and milling demand
will be filled up and some of the corn will be
released to come to Chicago."

CHICAGO GRAIN
BULLISH SENTIMENT IN WHEAT, BIG
JUMP IN CORN.
Chicago, May 22.Continued wet weather
created bullish sentiment in the wheat pit here
today. Additional rains were reported In Kan
sas and other sections of the southwest. Re
ports from the Red river valley in the north
west told of considerable damage by excessive
moisture. In addition prices at Liverpool
showed good gains. A feature of trading was
the strength of the May delivery. At the start
that option was up lc at 99c. Buying by shorts
soon forced the price up to $1.03. A reaction
to $1.01% followed. July opened a shade lower
to %@%c higher at 88c to 88%c, and in sym
pathy with May advanced to 89%c. Minneapo
lis, Duluth and Chicago reported receipts of
344 cars, against 183 cars last week and 236
cars a year ago.
Less bullishness was manifested the last halt
of the session. Reports from the winter wheat
territory were conflicting, a report of a Min
neapolis crop expert who is now on a tour or
the southwest being quite bearish. Under gen
eral feelllne July sold off to 88%c, where It
closed with a gain for the day of %c. May
closed at 1.01, a gain of 3c.

Urgent buying by shorts of corn for May de
livery resulting in an advance of an even 6c a
bushel was the feature of trading in the corn
market. Offerings were extremely meager and
the price jumped up in bounds of %c to at
a leap. A threatened "corner" of all corn for
May delivery was the cause of the sensational
advance. At the opening May was up %c at
53c. Before half an hour had elapsed the price
had touched 59c. Later, on moderate realizing,
the prtce dropped to 57%c. July opened un
changed to %c lower, at 47%c to 47%c, and
sold up to 48 %c. Local receipts were 183 cars,
with 15 of contract grade.
An estimate of liberal receipts for tomorrow
had a depressing effect, May selling off to 56%c.
After touching 48%@48%c July sold off to 48c,
where it closed with a gain of %c. Final quota

NORTHERN PACIFIC AND GREAT
NORTHERN DECLINE.
Day in Stocks Starts with Higher
Prices and Promise of Still Better
Things, but Profit-Taking Starts
Slump that Hits Many Hard.
New York, May 22.Htgher prices for Ameri
cans in London gave au upward start to prices
here. There were a few exceptions, .but amongst
the less important stocks. Illinois "Central rose
1% and St. Paul a point, and Atchison, Southern
Pacific, Union Pacific and United States Steel
large fractions. There wag a decline of 1 in
Virginia-Carolina Chemical.
After absorbing the profit taking sales invited
by the opening rise, the' market again moved ag
gressively upward. St. Paul had, however, been
lowered to Saturday's closing level and some of
the metal and car equipment stocks sold below.
The rebonund was quite pronounced in a number
of favorites, Including Union Pacific, Southern
Pacific, Amalgamted Copper, Reading and St.
Paul, all of which sold a point or more above
last week's closing. Other gains reached 4% in
Westinghouse Electric and a point or more in
General Electric, Tennessee Coal, United States
Steel, People's Gas, Atlantic Coast Line, Chesa
peake & Ohio, New York Central and Colorado &
Southern first preferred. Some of the junior
Vandeibilt stocks were notably weak, Canada
Southern losing a point and Cleveland, Cincinna
ti, Chicago & St. Louis 2, St. Louis & San Fran
cisco second preferred, also dropped 1 and St.
Louis Southwestern 1%.
Prices of prominent stocks made further up
ward progress. The gain in Illinois "Central
reached 2%, St. Paul and Delaware & Hudson
2. St. Iouis Southwestern prefened 1%, Atchi
son, Ontario & Western and Metropolitan Securi
ties 1% and Rock Island preferred, United
States Steel and Car 1, Westinghouse Electric
recovered 7 points of Saturday's decline. There
were declines in Des Moines & Fort Dodge of
6%, New York Air Brake 5, Virginia Iron 3,
Sloss-Sheffield Steel 2 and the smelting stocks
and Pressed Steel Car preferred 1 to 1%. The
demand at the higher leyel dropped to nothing
and prices slipped back. Union Pacific and St.
Paul reacted 1. Bonds were irregular at noon.
Stock values crumbled rapidly under a violent
selling movement which gave a semidemorallzed
appearance to the trading. Wide losses were
made in lie Northern Securities group and a host
metal and railroad equipment stocks. The
chief declines were Northern Pacific and Ameri
can Express 5, Sloss-Sheffield Steel 8, Colorado
Fuel, Smelting, Locomotive, Pressed Steel Car,
United States Steel preferred, Lead, Sugar, Cana
dian Pacific and Wisconsin Central 1% to 2% and
St. Paul, Pennsylvania, North-Western, Louis
ville and Amalgamated Copper 1 to 1%.
Liquidation continued in great volume and
occasional recoveries were followed by outbreaks
of weakness at new points. Amalgamated Cop
per broke heavily to 3 points under Saturday and
United States Steel preferred lost 2. St. Paul
and Union Pacific fell abruptly to 2 points under
Saturday. Northern Pacific fell 7%, Great North
ern prelerred 7, Smelting 4V*. Colorado Fuel 8%,
Sugar 3%, St. Louis & San Francisco second
preferred 3%, Tennessee Coa! 2% and active
stocks pretty generally 1 to 1%.
Prices in some cases receded further In the
final hour. Great Northern preferred was forced
down 15 points and North-Western 4, and there
were some additions to the list of losses running
to 2 points or over. The room shorts then took
their profits and their buying to cover worked
some recovery, running from 1 to 1% in some
of the leaders. Pressure was renewed in the
final dealings. The closing was active and
easy.
