RUMORS OF WHEAT DEAL
ALARM SHORTS IN CHICAGO.
BUYING SENDS TIIE PRIGE
OF MAY OPTION UPWARD.
Heavy Sellinjr of December ami
May Com Causes Depression
Provisions Weak.
Chlentro. Nov. 21. Humors of an lrr.pend
hiR deal in -wheat, under tlio leadership
of a prominent operator, were current on
the Hoard of Trade to-day and caused
considerable anxiety amonjr shorts, and
covering by these interests resulted In a
EtronK market, may closing "401c higher.
May corn -was He lower. Slay oats were
:io lower, while January provisions closed
ficm a shade to 7!4c lower.
"WHEAT.
Wheat ruled strong, although there was
little improvement in the volume of trade.
The Impression prevailed amonc traders
that too much has been finding Its way
Into tho hands of a leading bull operator,
and as the crowd in general whs Miort,
there was good demand from this source
throughout the day. Outside markets were
higher, those -at Minneapolis and Duluth
being especially strong, which influenced
price? here. May was in better demand
than Dec. and opened a shade to V?Jic
higher at TSVrfiTSVic and advanced gradual
ly as the dav progressed. Advices from Ar
centlna state that the exportable surplus
was much less than at lirst estimated and
this had a strengthening Influence during
tho latter part of the session. The close
-was KQlc higher at T9c. Dec ranged
i-etween TWS'c and 79j.5Si-c, closing
9;c higher at 79j;c. Clearances of wheat
and flour were equal to 332.200 bu. Tho
world'H visible supply, as reported by
Uradstrect's, increased S.CT.Ci'Xi bu. Pri
marv receipts were 1.5i.1-"W bu.. against
l.2rt.20O bu. a year aco. Minneapolis. Du
luth and Chicago reported receipts of
l,sS cars, aganlst SM cars last week, and
1,415 a year ago.
CORN.
Tho feature In the trading In corn was
tho heavy selling of both Dec and May
by a prominent commission-house. The
market was heliied by tho strength in
wheat and steady cables, but Dec. was
depressed by the decline In tho price of
new corn and the increased receipts. May
foM between 41c ond -Be closing a shade
higher at -!l?ic. Dec closed c lower at
-t Ijical receipts were 4W cars, with
1 of contract grade.
OATS.
Oats continued weak under heavy sell
ing by the same commission house, as was
selling corn, and which has been active
on that side of tho market the past few
days.
The offerings met with only scattered
demand. May was in fair demand from
commission and cash houses, and part of
tho loss was regained. May ranged be
tween C5Uc and "rsc closing He lower
at 30',ic Dec closed ?ic lower at 31vsc.
Local receipts wore 2JI cars.

HOGS A cood run of hop arrived, tho re
ceipt before the day was over belnc In tho
neichlwrhood of S,O"0 heid. which is the largest
number that has t-en on sale any one elnv for
several weeks. The five principal Western mar
kets l-.ad a total cf 71.4.30. compared with 5. .wo
a week apo.
Outside Infiuerccs were unfavorable to sellers
and local buers were very bearlh. especially
I.ac);ers. and they succeeded In brcakltic the
market to the extent of fully 15c. making price
now on the lowest basis for several years.
Nothlcc except the best sold above 54.25. The
market Is now $2 per 100 lbs. lower than this
time a year aso. nnd nearlv J4 lower than the
hlch time two jean, ago. Rial good p'cs and
lights are again selllns Rt t top ot the mar
ket, but thwe that are on! .air have .Inclined
as fast as the heavier hog. The market was
slow, dull and drRggv all day. and closed a
shade weaker than the oienlns.
UghtM weighing 1W to 14S lbs. sold at $1.10
4.25; lights. 130 to 18S lbs., at S4.15S4.2S: me
dium weights. Sl.2054.30. nnd good heavies at
S4.22HSi4.il. Tho bulk of the good medium
and heavy hogs sold at 1.224.25, against
S4.35fl4.40 Monday.
SHRI7I A good moderate supply of cheep
was on sale, and the arrivals Included a few
pood lambs, also somo good mutton sheep, but
the qualltv was no better than usual. A good
demand prevailed and the market opened active
with values strong to a shade higher on nil
decent killing stuff; however, there was no Im
provement on the half-fat and all such as
classed as no Ik tter than fair. Thin lambs con
tinue to bo poor sale, ns thero Is practically no
demand for them. The stocker trade waa nn
chansed. IlonSKS The feeling of comparative easiness
which was manifested In tho opening of the
horso market this week still obtains, nnd while
thero Is no distinct change In -values e-r a
markM weaknsss in any way or on any partic
ular kind, the fact remains that the undertono
is not as good a a week ago. and a decline of
S3'.710 Is generally In force, when contrasted
with conditions pre-aillng two weeks ago. In
view of there being a largo supply, buyers, who
are bv no means few. aro taking advantage of
the situation to buy a little easier, and for this
reason th-re Is not as much briskness to tho
movement and moro uofsuaslon Is necssary to
effect sales. The market on ton Southern
hors3 perhaps shows tho least effect of this
Fhadlng of strength, all such classes being
actively wante-1 by buyers, who do not delay
the purchase ef them for any small conce's .mi:
In fact, top 87outhern horses are holding their
own better than anv other class, and arc selling
to thi best advantago In the present niarkst.
Strictly IP--W1 17-estern horses have some call.
but the demand Is light, owing to the ba1
stst of the Hastem markets. The classes most
affected by the offish tendency are plain rough
chunks, gcnernl-purposo h.-rses nnd common
Southerners. Under the circumstances. It Is
not an unfavorable market, but one disadvan
tage Is that too many commen horses ate being
received.

MULHS The mule market Is a little draggler
than It was last week, but sellers do not see any
decided change In prices. Too many thin and
rough mules are being placed on the market,
which are In reality the cause of much of the
slowness, as dealers have plenty of this class
already on hand and are seeking nene but mules
that ran lie turned over Immediately. Somo of
the arrivals are good mules, but are lacking In
flesh and finish and are equally as hard to ells
pose of as common mules. In short, anything
that Is r.ot "ripe" is finding slow sale. Receipts
thus far this week are not as heavy as last, and
apparently are about a3 many as needed, for
dealers say they are not doing ns much business
as a week ago. The cotton mule demand Is still
the best feature of the market.

buy more wool as business warrants. The mar

Fourth street.
Foreign Tho Teaturo ot the London market
was trading In American stocks, which wero
strong. Arbitrage houses bought about 20.CO)
shares for London account.
Corn Products There was an earlv tip on
thse shares which came from the West- All
manner of rumors circulated, but houses Iden
tified with some of tho insiders said they knew
of no unfavorable develooments affecting tho
dividends nor In connection with the allegjd
growth of formidable competition. The selling
camo from both commission houses and traders
but there was much talk of a "drive." If it
was. It was well advertised.
Union Pacific There was what was called
good bm-ing. and In connection with It tho
street heard that the annual statement of the
company would be Issued to-morrow. It was
said the net earnings would nmount to over
11 per cent on the common, and that, after al
lowing two millions or more for extraordinary
expenses, it would show In excess of 7H ner
cent on the entire capital stock. It waa said
the early selling in Southern Pacific came from
certain Inside Interests which deprecated the
professionals attempt to advance Uie prlco
Just now.
Amalgamated Conner The decline started
with the sale of 10.000 shares by Mclntyre &
Marshall, which were tak-n principally hy
room shorts. There was much talk ot this and
other selling, being prompted by tho n:us that
the decision In the Parrot and Boston and
Montana lnlunctlons had been dissolved. But
specialists thought It was moro likely the
weakness wns due to the report that tho stand
ard OH party was not at all bullish on Amal
gamated stecks. as had been reported.
American Car and JAiundry A bear tip which
came tru to-day was that In Car and Foundry
preferred. In the room betore the opening It
was predicted In certain quarters that It would
prove a second Republic Steel, 'the selling was
scattering, but thu stock declined easily
enough.
