June 1.— There was a slightly I wider m rrmrnt of prices in to-day's stock market il.nn the recent average, but this was largely ennfined to ppe<*lal otoclts of the dormant class. The usual market leaders were sluggish and neglected and their narrow fluctuations cannot be accepted as Indicative of any widely held opinions on the market. Many of the low-priced stock* which sold off sharply to day have had the appearance of' speculative •affinities In the past under pool manipulation, and the *uc£e*tlons put afloat In the course i of this i«*t manipulation have implied a pos- I f Utility of some ultimate combination between a number of such roads, small in themtelves I and of small financial Importance, with no I dividend dlrtributlon on their » tocks and with more or leg* myptery maintained regarding tho actual earnings and operation. The common Interest In theae stocks of a pneculatlve party of gome prominence has constituted a vantage point for speculative operations In the group under leadership. The selling of these stocks for the last few days Is attributed by the seller* to fear* that the holdlnjr* of the rpecu latlve party have been largely reduced and supporting measures for the securities In the I market abandoned. The downward cour*e of railroad earning* delays the hope of dividends, j which were- distinctively prospective at best. ¦ A number of Southwestern raHrnad stocks suf fered from -professional uneaslneos over their financial prospects. One or two point louses resulted In the Colorado and Southern stocks, the Toledo. .St. Louis and Western*, the St. Louis -Southwestern utocks. Missouri. Kansas and Texas preferred and some others. The heavlncs* elfewhere In the market was largely In sympathy with that In these special stocks. News was taken little account of.

The receipts in May were 1438 tons. There is no further change In Feedstuffs, which are quoted firm, with small stocks. Hay is weak, with a^ downward tendency, though prices show little change. Three cars of new Volunteer Wild Oat came In yesterday and void at $8. The whole line was very bright., fresh and well-cured Hay. The weekly circular of Somers & Co. says: "Hay shipments continue quite plentiful, with a total for the week ending yesterday ef 24<ii.i tons;. this Is 200 tons more than the report shows for last week; in all this quantity not a single bale of new Hay can t* reported. It has become generally known that the market is not quite ready for the new crop as yet and the farmers are holding back for a more ad vantageous-seasori. The situation Is not at all satisfactory, for trade continues very dull, and It Is generally believed that our regular summer rush will be somewhat late this sea eon. Old. Hay has declined to what Is now a very reasonable range, and, as every one Is well utocked up. there seems to be no particu lar need of the new Hay. "Crop reports are somewhat conflicting, but as a general statement we can say that to tho south of us the crop Is lighter than last year, especially In the extreme southern portion of the State; In the territory to the east of San Francisco a very fair yield is reported, while In the northern districts, throughout Solano. Yolo. Napa and Sonoma counties, the yield i» much heavier than last season. Taken as a whole. It would seem that In the country con tributary to San Francisco the crop will be somewhat heavier than last year. "To summarize, we would say as being our idea of the situation that this summer's de mand will not be as heavy as that noted last year and. although we anticipate no extremely low prices, yet we believe the market will range considerably below the figures noted throughout last harvest season. "Gilt-edged wheat Hay is somewhat scarce on our market and meets with ready sale; other Kradcs an? In plentiful supply and work off rather slowly." BRAN— $21(322 rer ton.

All Stocks Very Dull, With No Marked Changes. CHICAGO, June 1.— From the start wheat exhibited strength. At the opening the strength was due chiefly to reports of additional rains In Kansas and other sections of the Southwest, the fear being quite general that the growing crop Is receiving too much moisture. Initial sales on July were %c lower to %c higher at 83l«c to 85%c. An official forecast of more rairt In the Southwest intensified the general desire to buy wheat. As a result the market received excellent support. Decided strength In corn was a further aid In creating the urgent demand that characterized trading. News from the Northwest was bullish, ad vices from Minneapolis stating that the flour situation was greatly improved. The claim was made that mills there are In better shape now than they have been in a long time, owing, partly, to concessions In freight rates granted by the railroads, thus facilitating ship ments to the Ea«. The demand for flour was also reported more active. During the latter part of the session a decreaso of 2.50O.O0O bush els in the world's visible a* shown Ty Brad etreet's Imparted fresh zest, to the buying movement. Shorts covered freely and there was a good demand from Southwestern houses. The market closed with prices almost at the top notch. After selling up to 87%c July closed 1%®1%c up at 87#S7%c. Roports of poor germination of the newly planted crop in addition to an extremely bull ish Government crop report caused a bread corn market. This market! closed at the high point of the day, July l%c higher at 49%c. Oats were strong In sympathy with other grains. July closed at 39%639%c, a gain of %c. ' ' Provisions were weak, owing to selling by those who desired to Uk» profits resulting from yesterday's advance. These offerings met with an Indifferent demand. Increased 'receipts of hogs generally restricting the desire to buy. At the close July pork was down 15@17%c, lard and ribs each off 7%c. The leading futures ranged as follows: Articles — Open. High.

Most dealers report that the quality of ranch Kggs Is falling off. and some are disposed to a»k a cent more for the finrst, while most of the large handlers are selling right along at previous quotations. The present prices please the retailers, for they enable them to sell at 22H®23c per dozen and thus dispose of large quantities: but they say that any advance would cut off this very good demand. The Egg market, however, is un questionably In very good condition and Is shewing signs of cleaning up better, though some houses are still storing their surplus re ceipts. Kastern are offering freely and are competing with the store ! goods, which are weak In consequence. Quotations for both ranch and store will probably change very shortly.
