6 WITH BULLS AND BEAES Operators Make Up Their Minds that Afghan Troubles will Not Lead to War. Ohicago Markets Much Unsettled To-day. Closing Lower in the Pace of War News. Crop Reports Exercising More Influ ence than "War Xews-The Bulls Getting Frightened. Gossip on "Wall Street- -The Market Slow and Uninteresting and Closes Weak and Lower. Chicago. Special to the Globe. Chicago, April 27.— Some time before opening this morning it was reported that liussia and England had agreed to arbitrate their differences by a commission of neutral powers. The feeling that with such peace ful indications there would be very little need for America's surplus grain, caused considerable weakness, even on the curb, before the opening, which was well under stood, notwithstanding the big bluffs made by several of the parties who are long on the stuff here. When the market opened the first sales recorded were about a cent below the close on Saturday for wheat. Corn stubbornly refused to weaken, how ever, and it was soon noised around that Lester and his friends were taking all of this grain that was being offered for sale. This not only strengthened the corn market, but also firmed up oats, and much of the strength which followed in wheat was due to purchases made by good parties in corn. In wheat the advance soon aggregated the difference between the closing price on Saturday and the opening price this morn ing. There are always PLENTY OF BUYERS when markets begin to advance, and to-day was do exception to that rule. Some good buying was soon inaugurated that closed the market for that cereal at about the highest price of the day, and other grains correspondingly as strong. Provisions opened extremely dull, but only a few points below the close on Satur day. The packers, who were eager buyers last week, seem to have resolved to let the stuff severely alone f«»r the present. The business done in the provision pit during the entire day might be designated as of a scalping order; no perceptible buying for investment. The absence of old-time dealers like "Uutch." Sam Daily and McGeoch, makes the busi ness in that portion of the house act slug gish nud dull. There is more talk in re gard to proceedings pertaining to the in auguration of the new building than intt-r -• •-t in baying and selling grain and provis ions. There was some show of strength, possibly on account of lower freights, as it was reported that the Chicago & Atlan tic cut of 3Kc to 5c had been met by the Pennsylvania lines, and that the Pan Hadle was contracting both grain and pro visions at a shading of 5c on each. ON THE AFTEItNOON BOAKD there was a weaker feeling prevailing, al although the decline from the close at 1 p. in. was not of any considerable magnitude. Crop reports that have almost been over shadowed by the European situation for some time past will no doubt come to the front again as an important factor in deter mining values. The little company of big men—Plank inton, Armour and McGeogh — which went from Chicago to San Francisco recently, across the wheat country, is said to be bearish in wheat. The members of the company declare they saw so much wheat that they believe it will never in the world be eaten up. The premium on May corn has disap peared, and with it the talk of a comer. The small stock of cash, the rather active demand and the prospect of a still smaller stock at the opening of navigation help to keep corn up. Wheat opened weak under liberal offer ings, and when consols began to show an improvement the market was practically dead; but a decline of }£c in consols, later, was the SIGNAL, FOR A GRAND RUSH to sell, and our market opened at the bot tom prices of the day, June wheat .selling at 90£fc, advanced to 90Kc, declined to '.'it .r. and then advanced quickly to 91J{c, selling back again and closing at 90% c. The cause of the sudden rise was the receipt of a cable quoting the decline in consols and explaining the sudden advance, which ap pears to be the receipt of a bogus telegram sent from Berlin to London, stating that Russia and England had asked the German emperor to arbitrate and he had consented. Bui this was afterwards contradicted with the result above noted, showing that the London stock exchange is just as sensitive to rumors as the Chicago board of trade. Other closings were bSj^'c, April; 83J 4 'c, May: 98, July. Opinions vary as to the future of the market among the most prominent dealers. llaniill and I'.rine say: "While war possi bilities exist values will remain sensitive to all that is set afloat, and we look for ire quenl and WTDE KM CTIATIONS hi directions probably the. exact contrary to general expectations." The Chandler- Brown company say: "The feeling in all speculative line-> is extreniVly nervous and we look for heavy fluctuations. Whether the coarse of prices will be up or down de pends entirely on the war developments." Mllmine, BodmanA Co. assert that "oper ators with small margins had better let the market alone. We think it will take abso lute war to gtfe the market a big boom and hold it there." There was no material change in the corn market, the range being in narrow limits. Trading was only moderate in volume. The feeling this afternoon was a shade easier, and the last quotations are slightly below those of the morning. The market was moderately active, unsettled and lower early, but later reacted and closed about the same as Saturday. Liverpool was steady and New York averaged better. At the opening the ' WEAKN'FSS IN WHEAT brought considerable on the market and the first sales were Sc below last week's close. Shorts and scalpers bought freely on the break, and, when wheat turned, corn fol lowed. The offerings were comparatively light after the break, and prices were easily advanced. May opened at 47Kc, sold at 47#c, advanced to 48)$ c, and after several light fluctuations closed at CTX& June opened at 47X@4T&c, sold to 4S&c, back to 47Jfc and closed at 4Sc July closed at 4SXc August sold sparingly at 48c, and September at 50c, Oats were active and stronger, and dur ing the session prices rose H@Hc above the highest attained on Saturday. The movement was mainly speculative, but there was a fair local and shipping inquiry. No. 3 for future delivery sold at Ss?*'@ SM;c for May. and closed at Ss}fc. June sold at 83K@S6c, closing at Ss&c July sold at Ss«t(df36c, closing at B~Xc, August 6oldatSo%@3l& SAMPLE LOTS WERE ACTIVE to the extent of the offerings, and prices woro higher, car lots on track selling at SS>i@S9Kc for No. 3 white, 36V4@37«{c for Ho. 3, ST^cass^c for No. 3 white. Ss@3oc for No. S. Provisions opened easier, in sympathy with the weak speculative feeling prevail ing. There was somewhat more activity with some recovery from the early decline, but the range for all kinds of products has been slightly below that of Saturday. The tone follows that of other speculative arti cles, but fluctuations are relatively within a more moderate range. The close was quiet and steady. June pork sold at $11.75@ L 1.79& advanced to 511.55. declined a?ain io 5 11. 77K and closed at 511.80 bid. Cash demand showed a little improvement and shipments were fair, but there was posi tively no feature of any kind in the market, and nothing to induce operations. Lard was quiet. June opened at 86.95 and clos ing at the same figure. Short ribs for June opened and closed at §5.97#. Other fu tures were equally dull. AT THE STOCK YARD? the receipts were liberal, but largely below those of a week ago to-day. The cattle market was slow and prices rather un settled. There was an active demand for hogs, and prices ruled a shade higher. Sheep were also a shade higher. HI.

London, April 27.— The Mark Lane Express, in its review of the British gTain trade dur ing the past week, says: The weather favors vegetation, which is making- rapid progress. The sales of English wheat during the past week wore 55.294 quarters at 36s 8d against .'£. -875 quarters at 37s -d during the corresponding week last year. The business done in foreign wheat has been of a retail character. Buyers and sellers are unwilling to act until war or peace is assured, with a decline after the sharp advance. Russian leaders are anxious sellers. In the off-coast market values are hardening. Ten cargoes arrived. Six cargoes were sold, seven were withdrawn and two re mained, both of California. To-day the market was very unsettled and there was but little tendency to purchase. English wheat was held for a full recovery of the decline. Flour was steady at full values. Corn was scarce and 6d&ls> dearer. Barley was 6d dearer, oats 3&6 d dearer and beans Is dearer. Pea* were firm. The Visible supply.

New York, April 27.— theory so persistently presented by the bulls that a war would have a depressing effect on the stock market received some apparent con firmation this morning by stiffening up on apparent peace news. The advance was not marked, as both sides are playing a waiting game, but the general tone was much better than a week ago. It is not believed the granger rate will be long con tinued and the 10-cent price to St. Paul is taken as indicating that heroic treatment has been adopted in order to force a speedy compromise. The bulls claim to be able to take in all the long stock that may come at present and do not propose to permit . the Chicago bears to get their stock back, and an upward tendency all along the line is predicted for the week. At the exchange the market opened irregularly. Some stocks were }4@Vi lower and others as much higher. The exceptions were Oregon Navi gation, which opened 1% lower, and Lake Erie & Western, which was ABOUT AS BAD. Gould, White and their followers went in this morning to see what they could do in the way of boosting prices. They whipped the bush, kicked up a dust and thrashed around generally, and succeeded after here culean exertions in advancing the market for a few stocks from Y 2 @%. But even this did not hold long. New York Central was worked in a way to make shorts un easy, and some of them covered and this put up its prices a f nil point from the open ing figure, which, however, was % lower than the close of Saturday. White, in ac cordance with his late bargain with Gould, was around the room, ostensibly buying Union Pacific at the highest point it touched during the forenoon, but this little ruse de ceived no one. Word was given out by the cliques that the market would be held in spite of everything. Hence no changes can be looked for on account of OUTSIDE OCCURRENCES. Pacific Mail was steady mid slow around 54>£. Omaha earnings for the third week of April decreased $29,300. Freight rates to Minneapolis by all lines and on all classes of goods were quoted at 10 cents a bundled to-day. The earnings of the Pennsylvania road for March decreased so much that it has affected the price of the stock. The directors' party were said to be buying St. Paul again. Bulls and bears appear to be equally confident of the future, and conse quently the*market drags along at a slow and uninteresting pace. There is no doubt but that Gould and White are determined to force the market upward, if such a thing is possible, and the leader of the move ment will be Union Pacific, in which it is claimed there is a large short interest. The market throughout the morning was in clined to be more active than on Saturday. It became firm after midday, with a mod erate advance all along the line. The shorts in New York Central who put out options two months ago, were buyers of it to-day. Stocks eased off toward the finish, and closed rather weak for all leading shares. _ .;,-'/ Kg! New York, April 27. — Government bonds were very strong this afternoon, the 4s ad vancing % and the 4%s % per cent., with BaleBofthe4s at 122%. State bonds were u.uiet,quotations being generally about steady. There was a well-distributed business in rail way bonds, none of which, however, were ac tive except tho Chesapeake & Ohio. Prices this evening show a greater number of ad vances than declines as compared with previ ous sales, but the changes in many cases are for only small fractions. Considering tho dullness of tho general market, the invest ment demand for securities of this class is very good. The total sales to-day were $820, -000, a decrease from Saturday of $67,000. The stock market continues dull but with a strong undertone prices at tho opening this morning were a shade lower than tho closing figures on Saturday, but the decline was im mediately checked and the upward movo ment which immediately followed continued till late in the afternoon, when on some re alizing and tho publication of news to the effect that the cutting of rates in tho west was spreading the market reached a fraction but closed firm at prices which in most cases are a fraction higher than they closed last week. The war news has ceased to havo any decided effect upon the market. To-day's business, although light, was more than double that of Suturday, the total sales being 182.000 shares, of which St. Paul, New York Central, Union Pacific, Oregon Transconti nental. Northwestern and Luck aw mum con tributed nearly 76 per cent. There wai con siderable activity and strength in New York Central this forenoon on reports that negotia tions were again under way looking to a settlement of the differences between that company and the West Shore. The stock advanced 1 per cent, from the opening. In the afternoon the next quarterly dividend was offered at % of 1 per cent., and the stock reacted, closing at a net loss of 18 per cent. Lake Shore was quiet and shows a gum of % per cent, at tho close. There was good buying of the grangers during the early part of the day. Northwest Belling up to 96 and St. Paul 71 Si, while Omaha preferred advanced to 77. Those advances were subsequently lost, Northwest elo«inir ' lower and St. Paul unchanged, and Umuliu preferred is still up %. There was unusually active trading in Oregon Transcontinental, which closed this evening % per cent, higher, both the activity and advance being attrib uted to the operations of inside parties, who claim that this stock has'not responded to the favorable influences attending the negotia tions for tho leasing of the Oregon Railway & Navigation line to the Union and Northern Pacific. Advices from Boston, received on the street this afternoon, state the joint lease of the Oregon Navigation has practically boon agreed upon. Missouri Pacific is *« higher. It is officially stated that the earnings of Pa cific Mail for the month of April, partly es timated on the business between New York and Aspinwall, amounted to $102,134. a gain over the same month last year of $3.758. The stock, however, is % per cent, lower this evening on a very small business. Union Pa cific shows a gain of }j per cent. The Post, in its cottou review, says: After an advance of sui>6-10U most of the gain wus lost und sales at the third call were made 1&2-100 above last Saturday's closing prices. June brought $10.82; July, $10.5*1; August, $10. i-: September. $10.72; futures closed weak and 2©3-100 lower than Saturday ; sales, 73.000 bales. Sales of stocks to-day aggregated 162.000 shures. including Delaware.

The Mail and Express says: There was no demand for mining shares to-day and a more stagnant market it would be difficult to find on the various calls. Quotations were mode for the moot of the stocks simply for the pur pose of keeping them before the public, but no one wanted to purchase and there was as little pressure to sell.
