{ Chicago, May 7.— The grain markets were
Bull around the opening: Anticipations of
break In both wheat cud corn were general,
»nd there was disposition to sell plainly
manifest in both pits. July wheat ranged
t v 3'ii!^.B3%c early, and July com 55%®55%C.
May corn sold at 57«*C. Receipts of corn
were 438 ears, of Which -07 cars graded No.
2. First return Indicated a decrease in the
visible supply of wheat of 75,000 bu, aud
this fact probably served to prevent the de
cline which was expected as much as any
thing, 'i 'he trade was strictly local and pro
fessional. Provisions were steady, and there
was a fair degree of activity ribs. Prices
near the o|<eniug were about the same as
Saturday's range, The changes In the vis
ible supply were as follows: Wheal. 1,140,
--:ih:j bu decrease; corn, 933,580 bu increase;
oats, 333,175 bu increase; rye. 40.150 bu de
crease; barky, 85.080 bu decrease. The
statement of exports from the Atlantic ports
last week shows the (shipments of wheat and
flour (reduced to bushels; to have been
1,059.200 bu, against 1,858,450 bu for Uie
Corresponding date last year. The visible
supply figures were a'surprise. Nobody ex
j, 1 en d j. larger decrease than 750, W0 bU In
wheat, and the increase iv corn was greater
than anticipated. The effect on the- market
was not felt at once, Indeed, wheat worked
hack fractionally, but later in the session
the market advanced strongly and the close
wus firm at %c improvement on the day.
Hutchinson made a heroic attempt to keep
the market down to tin call price. 83%&
83% c fur July, but it got away from him and
soured. Linn and other bulls were large
buyers of May and June, and the result of ,
their tactics was to diminish the premium in '
the later mouths. The bull leaders are so |
strongly confident of the merit of their posi
tion that they are going into the cash market j
With a view of getting position of the actual j
property. The continuous heavy rains the j
Northwest are retarding the seeding, already 1
dangerously late, and still further fortifying
the bulls in their faith thai this Is going lo be
a year cf short wheat crops all around, scant
stocks and high prices, They are banking
heavily on the correctness of tiieir positions.
There is now a very strong probability that
the visible supply will get down to the neigh
borhood of 15,000,000 bu, and if short crop
reports should be fully confirmed later on,
ihe bulls expect to have advanced to 84 Vic,
with May and June buoyant. The corn mar
ket! resting solid as a roe!-; on the shipping
demand, No. 3 yellow selling in the sample
market at 55% c, or about where No. 2 June
was quoted, and th<; demand exceeded the
supply. The speculative demand was nar
row, but the cash market was strong and
buoyant Corn cablet were strong. Pro
visions ruled rather weaker, with a light
trade. At the afternoon session interest cen
tered in wheat, which advanced W"'^>.< over
the 1 p. m. close, and closed lor the day le
higher. Oats were a bade higher, and corn
dull and steady, Provisions were loin and
steady, wilh short ribs Utile higher.
THE 801 JIM. l-.t.1-'.,-.i
Chicago! Way 7.-"rThe first iron 'change
was very dull. Opening prices ranged just a
trifle better than the closing figures ou Sat
urday. About ll o'clock me wheal pit
livened up and the market became very ac
tive. Shorts, who realized that they must
denend upon the tail end of the old crop to
fill contracts, bought June wheat. Then the
visible supply figures came, showing a de
crease of 1,140,000 bu tor the week, encour
aging more buying-- This was followed by
reports from Missouri, which have been
bearish recently, conceding that the damage
was more than expected. On these things
there was an active market from 11 a.m.
until be close, when the advance for the
day was about %<g%<*. June opened atß'_tyj
H'H2K't, sold up io-';:-r'-- July opened atS'JVm
and solo -;|i to - -ls-ie. Corn sold within nar
row range, and while the gem lal feeling was
strong, the large receipts and the large
Increase lv the visible supply, a
large percentage of which is No. 2,
prevented an) special advance. 'losing
prices were very near the outside for the da;. 1
and fractionally higher than on Saturday.
May opened at 07ViC, sold 57f4<&57%C, and
closed at 57%«*. July opened at 55 % c, sold
at 55<b&55%c, and closed at 55% c. The
speculative trade in oats continues active
and the market strong and advancing The
amount In store is small, and the holders do
1101 seem inclined to lei the price drop at all,
and consequently the shorts are covering at
a little higher figures every day. May oats
sold up to and closed at 34 tic July solo up
from 32% cto 33, closing at 32% c. Pro
visions were quiet mid steady, trading being
mostly professional. Short ' 1 lbs were tlie
most attractive, and were sold early by strong
parties who changed their minds later and
bought back tbeli purchases at higher prices

$4. 80 Ml for sixty-day bills, and $4.88 Vi for

ately active to-day. and while weak in the
forenoon, recovered somewhat later in the
day and closed firm, though at fractional
losses for the day in most of the active list
Loudon was a buyer at the opening, and this
gave a strong tone to the early trading, first
prices being from '» to % per cent above Sat
urday's filial quotations. The room was gen
erally in a bullish frame of mind, hut the
traders and professionals were seeking for a
further reaction, and the unfavorable state
incut of the Atchison was used against the
list in general, and special pressure brought
against the Gould stocks. which were found to
yieldlmore rapidly than the real of list. New
England was remarkably strong in die early
dealings, but af|er a rise of a point, gave
way with the remainder of the list.
Missouri Pacific led the decline, and before
it was stopped hud dropped tfo per cent. But
Union Pacific also became quite weak later,
the stories that the control of the Soo line
hud been bought by Canadian Pacific parties,
and that the latter road would demand a
larger differentia] in the transcontinental
pool were used against the stock with some
effect, A few of the dealings was Uie de
mand for Lackawanna in the loan crowd, as
high as 1-64 being hid for the use of the
slock to-day, while the short interest in all
ihe in-live stocks Is reported very large, one
operator having out 100.000 shares. There
is nn Impression that the market has been
weakened by parties interested In defeating
the placing of the Reading 4 percent loan In
London, and Heading was weak at oneUroe
to-day, though ft was never a lender lv the

Paclfii as to weakness, but New England
after it once was started showed marked
weakness. Toward 2 o'clock tho lowest
prices of the day generally were reached,
and 1 in- shorts then started In to cover,
which rallied the list, though lillie progress
was made until during Ihu last hour, when
the advance gained force, end most of the

Flour— Market Record: The -conditions
are yet unfavorable to a free movement of
flour. About all reports from points east of I
Chicago are of a bearish tenor, and, while j
there is a great deal of bull feeling, it an- I
pears to be limited to the West, Flour buy
ers are in the bearish district and sellers in
the bullish, with the result as would naturally
be expected- -no trading.
Bran and Shorts— The market is weak with
a downward tendency, but. while there has
been and is a large production, the demand
has moved it forward to consumers as fast as
produced. Quoted bran, $12<j£12.75 ; shorts,
|12®13.
lorn— firmness in the May deal at ( hi
cago keeps prices firm here, though very Ut
tle stops here that would go into contract
grade there. Dealings are merely in sample
car lots on track at 50<_Uilc for good un
graded.
Oats— A quiet and fairly steady market ex
ists, with business all in sample lots at 30®
33c, O. i., for fair mixed to nice while.
Barley dull, at nominal figures; 50@55c
for ordinary samples.
Feed Mixed feed selling slowly at $19.50
&20 o. I. ; 5U01&20.50 f. O. b.
Hay— choice dry upland hay would bring
almost any price under $14, if there was any
to offer. The range is wide, owing to dam
age, in some Instances as low as $5 a ton.
