LlRht Movement AId In the Uptnrn, All Grains Closing: Fract lonnlly IIlKhcr Advances in l'rovisious. CHICAGO, Maj' S. It was sellers' day in the grain markets to-day. There was much hesitation early on weather conditions, but this situation did not warrant fresh pres sure. Cash business was good' and prices made good advances. July rrheat closed fi4c up, corn ;'y ;c higher and oats flc ad vanced. Provisions closed 12'.2C to 30c higher. Pears, who had been hammering: wheat prices on favorable weather conditions, found too many bull factors arrayed against them to-day. The weather was good over nearly all the wheat belt and sta tistical Journals issued bearishly favorable crop news, but receipts were very small and the cash situation was very strong. Cables also were comparatively firm when yesterday's depression was taken Into ac count. After an early see-saw In prices bulls took hold firmly and worked ad vances. The cash situation has gradually developed a strength that the traders be lieve will influence speculation for some time. Elevators have all the wheat in sight, the country is offering little and the elevator people have sold much of their holdings at July prices rather than at the lower May prices. The result has been a scarcity of cash wheat at the recently cur rent May figure. To-day May prices in out side markets advanced above July and at ons time here almost equaled them. Added to this was a good corn strength. Good cash sales were made late yesterday, four teen loads being taken here for export Shortä covered freely and July, which opened ;ffUc to U&c up. at 74XS74Vst. sold up to 74?c and closed firm, it?Hc up, at 7lc. Local receipts were twenty-three cars, none of contract grade; Minneapolis and Duluth reported 101, a total of 124, against 253 last week and 23d a year ago. Primary receipts were 180,000 bu, compared with 352,000 last year. Seaboard clearances in wheat and flour equaled 383,000 bu. Corn ruled strongest of the grains to-day and made good advances. Yesterday's slump was not reeopnded to by the foreign markets, and, although all outside news on the crop situation was bearish, everything else in the situation favored the bulls. There is little old corn outstanding, re ceipts continue email and the leading bull hout-e is credited with holding twice as much long corn as there is old stuff visible. Aftr hesitating for a time at the opening, "taHers1' again took the bulll5h viw of the market and bought liberally, shorts cov ered and then the bull leadt-rs Kent prices up farther by taking in stuff In good quan titie. There was an improvement In the cash situation which lent strength to the futures. Traders generaly regard the posi tion of the bull party as such that at any open buying by it the crowd quickly fol lows. July early sold as low as COHc ad vanced to 61"4c, and after some liquidation for profits closed firm. Wc. up at 61U'u blc. Receipts were 1.15 cars. Oats showed strength and activity of their own. The early market was weak on favorable crop reports, but opening buying of July by the prominent bull operator in May started a good advance. The .-ah de mand was al5o much improved and offer ings were scarce. July sold early at 35c advanced to 3C?vc and closed firm. Kc ud nt 36Uc. Receipts were 135 cars. Provisions were influenced for good' ad vances by a continuation of the demand that has marked the nit for j The hog market at the yards was strong and packers gave the pit support. Liquida tion was In the thape of outside proilt tak ing. Corn strength also helped in the ud turn.

SOME SHOW OF STRENGTH STOCKS RECOVER I'UOM T1IEIU AVEAK.XESS OF VEDESI) VV. Consldcralle Uncertainty Still Dis played In Some Quarters Retter Movement In Cirnngers. NEW YORK. May S. Stocks recovered from yesterday's weakness to-day, although there was considerable uncertainty mani fest In the prevailing sentiment. A more cheerful feeling over the anthracite out look is responsible for considerable rebuy ing by short sellers of yesterday, who pro fessed confidence last night that a strike could not be averted. The hesitation which developed In the market was due to a con siderable extent to the action taken by the mine workers' convention, which presents an entirely new phase of the situation. The active coalers reflected no misgiving after the announcement of the miners offers to arbitrate, but they fell into comparative dullness. The high-priced coalers offered the anomaly of early weaknes's while the Readings were advancing and a. strong re covery after the demani for the Readings had largely died out. The whole market fell Into dullness in the latter rart of the day while waiting for the an nouncement of the reply of the an thracite operators to the offer of the miners. The result is that the day's transactions are not much over half those of yesterday. Outside the Readings the principal activity was In St. Taul, Union Pacific, the local tractions and Southern Railway. Union Pacific and St. Paul were bought heavily for the Western account, the attraction being attributed to crop con ditions. The referee's decision upholding the constitutionality of the New York fran chises tax law induced some active liquida tion of the stocks of New York public utilities, but they were well supported and rallied. The advance in Louisville and Southern Railway met realizing. Reports of an apparent contest between the two in terests for control of coal lands increased the disposition to sell. Illinois Central be came strong. In contrast to its weakness yesterday, while the other two stocks weie declining. There were evidences of strength among various minor stocks, which are supposed to be th? subject of manipulation by speculative pools, although various ru mors continued to circulate of their pros pective absorption or merging. Tennesst-e Coal and Colorado J'uel were under pres sure. The last named, however, recovered to well above last night. International Power fell 9 points below the last sale prices, but fully recovered. There was a sale of SL Lawrence & Adirondack at Z2, compared with the preceding sale at before the collapse of the Webb-Meyer Etocks. The Incidental statement by Dr. Webb that he had sold the road to A. L. Meyer was news to the public this morning. Money went to 9 per cent, again to-day, but sterling exchange turned weak and New York exchange at Chicago recovered from 2) cents discount to ID cents premium. Money brokers report offerings of large sums for lending in New York irom various parts of the country. The loss already this week to the subtreasury of over $2.Oi0,00 is to be reckoned with in considering the money market situation. The bond market recovered to-day in sympathy with stocks. Total sales at par value were 53.1CO.W0.- United States threes and the new fours declined U per cenL on the last call.

Fairly Good Buyiitsr. in Various Se curities, Mostly for Effect. Meyer &. Kiser's Telegram. NEW YORK, May S. Apparently the in terests which have been behind the bull movement for some weeks realize that if the market were left to itself it would seek a lower level. That this would happen was evidenced by the course of prices yester day afternoon, when, owing to the ack of support from the element alluded to, prices went off with considerable rapidity. To-day the support was in evidence in al most all the leading stocks, but especially in Union Pacific, L. & N., St. Paul and Southern Railway. During the afternoon, owing to rumors that the negotiations be tween the miners and the operators had been resumed, the coal stocks became nota bly strong and there was what is called good buying of Lackawanna and Delaware & Hudson. Jt was noticeable, however, that as soon as the manipulative buying ceased in the general market the advances also ceised and the market became extremely dull. There is no doubt that the public i3 taking little Interest in the stocks at present. Nor is It likely that outside busi ness will increa?e to any extent as long as rates for money remain as hlh as they are now. That there will be any diminution in the rates in the near future is extremely improbable, owing to the condition of the New York banks and th enormous extent of our liabilities abroad. The only way in which these liabilities can be reduced Is by the Fhipment of gold, and these ship ments will have to be heavy before caus ing anv considerable diminution of the In debtedness. The reason for this is that not only are we borrowing abroad, but In addition some of our leading financiers have recently been acquiring various industrial enterprises in Lurope. Fairly Stronpr lmt Qnlet. Granger Farwell & Co.'s Telegram. NEW YORK, May S. The market opened strong as compared with yesterday's close. but stocks were rather quitl The high rates for money late yesterday, due to pay ments on new L. & N. stock, while they need r.ot be considered serious, again show the strained situation In New York. The market is very feverifh, due to the strike situation. Coal stocks are uncertain and there is a good demand for Reading in the loan crowd. It is understood that insiders supplied Chicago & Great Western at the hie her prices. Amalgamated Copper was strong this morning, Boston doing some good tiuying. No gold shipments are looked for this week. The railroads made some slight gain during the day and held strong, but were really not very active. II CA L ECONOMY. lie Careful About !VeceasItIcs, lint Luxurious 'Ith Luxuries. Hutchlns Hapgood, In Ainslce's Magazine, What is the nature of the personal econ omy of a successful business man? What Is si rich man's attitude toward expenditure? He always wants his money's worth in neccss.irif s, and in them will often drive a hard bargain. That is a part of his busi ness. It fits into his scheme to be con sistent in the field of his work. He is too much of an artist not to round out the whole system of getting the most for his outlay. But for luxuries he will spend enormously, with r.o eye to economy. It is a luxury to him to spend large puras for his wife's dresres. for Jewels for her ears. for opera! seats, for his extravagant son's amusement. ! or his own few iersonaI luxuries for his cig.irs. for his wine, he will pay the highest prices. As the wise Bacon said: "A man ought warily to begin charges which, bgun, must continue, but in matters that return not he may be more liberal. In other words, be careful about necessaries, but when it comes to luxuries be really luxurious. This is the natural in stinct of a man really sound in busintss matters. Such a man is economical!' con structive and devoted to big plans, and he has no leisure or nerves left fr small sac- riilees. A condition of his continued pro ductiveness is that he should satisfv his temperament, should buj- his wife all the Jewels she wants and allow his son to plurge" with the best. Genius has its vagaries, which must be satisfied unless the productive spirit is to fall away. A Jive business man contributes enormously more to the common gd than if he didn't spend enough to stimulate his business genius. Spendthrift wives are often a epur to their husbands. The watchword in gen eral Is: The economy of extravagance. Pensions for A'elernns. Certificates have teen issued to the fcllowln- namea inaiamans: rrip-?rf! Watrm aW.

Hogs in 3Ioderate Supply and Five to Ten Cents Lower Sheep Stendy Condition of Other Markets. UNION STOCKYARDS, INDIANAPOLIS. May S.-Cattle-Recelpts, K0. The receipts of cattle continue small, the total thus far this week indicating a decrease of over 80Ö compared with the same time last week and about 1ZQ compared with the corre sponding time a year ago. The receipts to-day wer fair for a Thursday market, being about the same as a week ago and 200 larger than a year ago. Fully an aver age proportion of good cattle was repre sented and the quality generally was prob ably more satisfactory to buyers than heretofore this week. Small supplies con tinue to have a stimulating effect on prices. and although there was very little if any quotable improvement In the average to day compared with yesterday, values were generally considered strong and up to ex pectations. Under the Influence of better competition prices, an usual, are a little irregular, and although a good advance has been registered thus far this wet-k the level is not quite up to the high time week before last. In some exceptional casts, however, buyers claimed that they paid as high prices to-day for female butcher cattle as they have at any time heretofore this season. Together with the advance in prices there is a healthier tone prevailing In the market than for some time, and on that account the outlook is more encouraging to salesmen. A good clearance of fat stock was mad promptly at current prices, and at the close a good clearance had been made. Steers sold as high as V. heifers at 50.73, cows at $5.25, and a fancy bull at $5.50.

The receipts to-day were nearly 1.0v smaller than a week ago. and 1.5o0 smaller than a year ago. Another rmall supply and more favorable reports from other places were responsible for rather an active mar ket to-dav, md practically all or jester- day's loss was regained. There was very little if any improvement in the demand from outside sources, but the request was rufficient to cause fcirly active competi tion from local packers and an early clear ance was made at an advance. There is a continued scarcity of prime heavy grades. but aside from that the quality was prob ably equal to the average heretofore this week. On account of the marketing of un finished light hogs there is a continued wide spread in prices. Late arrivals Fold rn a basis of opening prices, and the mar ket closed steady.

The market was consid ered about steady at yesterday's quota tions, an advance of from 10 to 15 cents over last Friday's figures.
