THE COMMERCIAL WORLD. Wheat Was Rather Panicky and Fluc tuated Considerable, But Closed Firmer. Other Grains and Provisions Were Steady and But a Trifle Easier. Transactions in the Financial Circles of Wall Street— General Quotations. Special to the Globe. 111. Leo, Feb. 3.— Yesterday afternoon, too late to do the speculators any good, quite a quantity of wheat was "worked" in New York for port. This morning direct mar ket cables were weak, and London and Liv erpool took advantage of the depression caused by advices of their own sending to buy wheal on a liberal scale here and in New York. That is a way they have. The local crowd i- pretty well out of long wheat, and the country hasn't been in. The bulls are Maadtag around. They do not want to get on until the last minute. The price of May fluctuated during the first hour between 82*.J->e and 83*«? c, and seemed unite firm. Corn opened steady and remained steady for a time, the price of May ranging ats2Vs®s2-*HtcJ The provision market was unexciting. May pork ranged at Sls^>:k*'.ls 50. and May lard j £7.i> k7'7 i'- I.'.1 .'. Trade light. Dullness was the predominant feature of the board of trade market- throughout the whole of the long sees! m. There is muscle under corn and provisions— good country muscle that doe- not easily tire, while in wheat the market teems to be bumping u-s. ward. Then, foreign advices are not en- CO— raging, if cablegrams are to be taken at what they say. but, read between the lines, the bulls see material from which to form their hopes. Supplies In Great Britain are large ij be sure— large enough to furnish food for the consumers of the kingdom for a \ mouth or six weeks, but the figures of the ; '•amount on passage" are not assuring to the foreigners. The "amount 09 passage" is lea by nearly 15,000.000 bushels than it was on the corresponding dele last year, and Europe is naturally looking toward America for replenishing stores. Liverpool advices to a leading firm on 'change are to the effect that English markets for the next mouth will he governed by the course of events in the American markets. New York is quoted as soft, but it may be stated that cash wheat i- not pressing for sale in any of the Western or Northwestern markets. The interior milling demand is increasing and from the Northwest word is sent out contin ually, with varying degree of emphasis. There will be no wheat there for shipment, excepting from the single point, Duiuth, where stocks are way below last year. THE SOUTH WZS-I— KB SIILLEKS have I ecu. and are still, outbidding DultitH, and had it not been for the extraordinary ef fort- of Duluth elevator people to attract wheat to that point, the warehouses would have been practically empty now. 'The situation is hardening." said an old grain merchant, "and there is no good reason why holders of centraled stocks should not get a handsome advance over May prices for their grain." Nevertheless, holders may get panic-stricken or tired out before advance comes, in which event low prices would rule until the end of the old crop year and the new wheat begins to arrive. To-day the tone of the local wheat was weak until the session was well along when a change in sentiment was observable. May wheat sold down to S" l je. but there was very little for sale at that figure and a big demand and a rally occurred. There was just enough war talk to make people slightly nervous and to deter r-eUint short, and to compel some who were short to run to cover. The shorts had to bid up the market before getting what they needed to extricate themselves. Trade was not heavy. The undertone to corn is less firm than that to wheat. Country muscle is displaying symptoms of weariness, but it is •stubborn, and the work of letting go is a fear ful process. Liquidation is slowly progress- , ing, however, and the corn bears are operat ing with more confidence as the spring ap proaches. St. Louis is very bearish on corn and country correspondence is not so full of facts to fortify the bulls. There appears to be some corn left in the interior of which there may yet !k? found a liberal surplus for shipment. May corn recovered from 52 tic to 53c before the close, and May wheat went back to 32c Trading was prin cipalis anion;; professionals, and was of rather small aggregate volume. The provis ion deal was uninteresting to the end; prices did not fluctuate to amouut to anything, and there was no pressure to sell or anxiety to Ltd! product. At the afternoon session wheat was firm. Other grains aud provisions were a trifle easier. Tim nOCTINE KEPOKT. Cuic.vc.o, Feb. 3. — The influences surround ing the markets at the opening of the board were rather bearish. The receipts of hogs at the yards were 1 above the estimates. Everything was quiet and easy in tone at the start, but first prices were as a rule unchanged from the closing figures of yesterday. May wheat started at 8 l*«c. May corn at 52ft@52%e, ami May pork at $14.55. The only features of interest in wheat were the buying for European account, the change of front by the New Yorkers. The New Yorkers took their cue from the indications of war as evidenced by the lower consol and rente quotations. They found a good market to i buy on. as the local crowd was depressed by the action, or rather non-action, of outside Speculators. May wheat kept between 81ft@»l%c till within half an hour of the close of the morning session, when all the buying just referred to had some effect, and May sold at 81%@32c Com was dull, with May fluctuating between 52Mi*315254c. Pork was very dull. tat lard and lies were fairly active. A report that Bismarck would make a very warlike speech at the opening of the German reichstag to-morrow, coupled with the good European buying referred to above, caused May wheat to advance to 82ftc May corn advanced to 52%@53, and trading be- j came active.

The stock market was very dull to-day except in a few stocks, and prices had a. drooping tendency throughout most of the day. The entire interest Fn the trading was centered iv Reading, Lacka wanna, Delaware & Hudson, St. Paul, and Louisville & Nashville. Another determined raid was made by the bears, but with slight effect except in Louisville and Nashville, Lackawanna and Delaware & Hudson, and each of these made material recoveries from the lowest prices reached. The general feel ing on the street is conservatively bullish, and the evidences that tho railroad business of the country will exceed for the present year that of last year makes it dithcult to purchase any large block of securities, while the heavy borrowing demand for the past few days indicates a considerable increase in the outstanding short interest, and this is especially* noticeable in Lake Shore and St." Paul. The most prominent feature early in the day was the heavy selling of St. Paul, yet the price of tne stock fluctu ated within a rauge of only ta per cent for the entire day, and displayed a most stub born strength under the circumstances. The attack was made afterwards upon the coalers, accompanied by rumors of further trouble in the mining regions, but Reading held up as St. Paul had done, though more impres siou was made on Lackawanna and Delaware „ Hudson. The day was finished by a fierce drive against Louisville & Nashville, which when the pressure was removed reacted with the remainder. Among the inactive stocks Atchison advanced sharply on a small busi ness, but the rest were featureless through - out. At the opening the market was dull and weak, but some improvement was made in quotations iv the first hour, though the advances were measured by insignificant fractious. The usual extreme dullness en sued and prices again sagged oft' slowly until well into the afternoon, when the coal stocks showed decided weakness and more anima tion marked (he trading. The decline was checked before the last hour, however, and small reactions took place, leav ing the market at the close dull but firm, at something better than the lowest prices of the day. Almost everything is lower to-night, but declines in no case exceed fractions, Louisville and Nashville losing "sc, Omaha "tie, and the rest smaller. fractions. The rail road bond market was comparatively, dull; sales $973,000. Prices were generally firm. Chesapeake and Ohio sixes rose 2 to 100; C.C.

Flour— Market. Record: There has been some increase in the production of flour dur ing the present week, owing to change in the weather and more mills in operation. The output is fairly well provided for, however, and while the market continues dull, there appears now to be very little stock accumu lating anywhere. The* inquiry from abroad is fair, but business for export is rather light. London bids 23s 3d for bakers' very freely, but millers decline to accept it; but'23sO*d has taken a little within a day or two, and. some has gone to Leith at 3d more.
