Dallas, Texss, wires th harvesting of
Wheat will begin In two weeks and that of
"JJn thirty days. Poth of these crop
will yield twice hi much wn promised
a month ago. The long drouth of winter
and spring had put Urn grain In uch con
dition It was mid eerly in April a total
failure might be expectad. But In the .last
two weeks there have been heavy rains In
all TexHa except the Panhandle and con
servative men place the wheat crop at 13,
OOO.OOu bushels, and the oata In Dallas and
eurroomllng counties at forty to sixty bush
els to the acre.
"Wa have heard a food deal," aald A. B.
Jaqtilth, "of heavy shipment from Omaha,
nnd other markets that would flood Chi
cago. I can t nee It. The terminal ele

only fcW.WO bushels of contract corn. All ot
this hoa been delivered on May contract,
and all of It has been sold and placed to

teal market and .the stocks In the hands of
the fnriaers west of the Mississippi are too
small to flood anv market. The racelnta. it

CHICAGO GRAtN AM) rROVIIIOXS
CHICAGO, May 14 -An estimated de
crease In available stocks Imparted firm
nets to wheat today. Final quotations
were practically Identical with yesterday's
close. Corn Is down V.He. Oats are off
Vic. Provisions show no change.
Initial sales on July wheat were He
lower to He higher at UMc. The mar
ket closed with an Inclination to flrmnew,
final quotations on July being at Mg
i3c. Clearances of wheat and flour were
equal to 4X,90 bushels. Primary receipts
were 165.200 bushels, compared with 1!16. 7tX
bushels a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth
and Chicago reported receipts of 91 cars,
against 12b last week and la? a year ago.
Tba early corn market was strong on an
active commission house demand, The
market closed weak and near the towewt
point. July opened unchanged to 'no
higher at 47?fc'84'i4kC, sold between 47V4SSj
and closed at 4i(iic. Local receipts
were 49 cars, with 4 of contract grade.
An easier leeling in oats late In the ses
sion was due almost entirely to weakness
In corn. Prices held firm until the last
hour, when moderate liquidation caused
some recessions. After opening a shade
higher at 3"c, July ranged between 8SVu
3S'o and closed at 30 VulHV:. Local re
ceipts were 82 csrs.
Provisions were steady, notwithstanding
the easier tone of grains. About the only
feature of trading waa sales of pork and
purchases of lard by outsiders. The mar
ket received the benefit of higher prlcea
for hogs; July pork closed a shade higher
at 311.1 7 Vj; ribs were up 2Vic at 3.87Vi6.40.

is a resulting redundancy of supplies In

The placing of part of the Japanese loan
here establishes a fund for that govern
ment to draw upon and It la believed will
atop the shipments of Japanese gold to
San Francisco and may even Involve some
additional gold shipments from New York
on Japanese account. Alao, part of this
week's outgo of gold was ugalnst New
York subscriptions to the Russian loan.
The course of our export trade since the
Panama payment first became a problem
has diminished the supply of commercial
exchange by reason of the heavy shrinkage
In grain and cotton exports and has thrown
upon the market additional requirements
for exchange which are calling for large
gold shipments aside from the Panama
canal shlpment-
lfut It seems apparent alao that many
holders of stocks have been Induced to
keep their holdings by reason of the fear
that a rise In the money murket would
prompt the throwing over of such holdings
has been the motive for some speculative
pressure upon the market and has given
added effect to the reactionary factors Iti
the general outlook. The most influential
of these Is the conservative tone of au
thorities In the iron and steel trade. The
United States Stoel securities have played
a lending part in the week's trading, with
marked sympathetic effect on the whole
list. Railroad trafflo officials are disposed
to admit that the advent of spring weather,
although it has resulted In some revival
of traftlo has not brought forward deferred
tonnage in the volume that was expected.
Some high grade bonds have risen In
price, but the general tone In bonds has
become rather heavy in sympathy with
stocks. United .States registered Us have
declined per cent on call during the
weea.

about 8,000 head. Other marketa have also
had moderate receipts so that the total
supply for th week at all the principal
marketa shows ' a loss aa compared with
last week.
Considering the light receipts the beef
Steer market has not been entirely satis
factory to the selling Interests. Each day
salesmen tried to get more money and
while the market did show some strength
on a few oocastons, still trading as a rule
waa slow with no Ufa or tone to tha mar
ket such as would naturally be expected
with light offerings. As compared with
the close of laat week, price are very
little different and In fact there Is not
enough change In either direction to be
worthy of mention. The cause for the
lack of demand on the part of packers Is
found In the fact that eastern marketa
have been rather flooded with dressed beef
so that packers could not take their usual
amount of stock. Good to choice beef
steers are quotable from $4.6O&'6.00 a 1th
something fancy a little above that. Fair
to good grades sell from 34.0mu4 W, and com
mon to fair from 1s.6w14.oo.
Tha cow market is also fust about steady
ror the week. The proportion ot cow stun
to the total receipts has been small all
the week so that there have been none too
many to supply even the limited demands I
of local packers. Salesmen tried to ad- I
vance prlcea but were unable to do so aa
packers persistently refused to raise their
bids. Cannera are very slow sale and are
undoubtedly lower. Some of them have to
sell below $2.00, but most of them sell from
3.vO&8.26, with cutters from $2.603.00; fair
o aood arades. 13 Otxaa.60. and good to
choice from 33.60iff4.26.
Bulls have been in fairly good demand
all the week and are safely steady. Oood
10 cnotc grades sen irom 3s.bug4.tu; isir
to good from 33.0o4fJ.6O, and commoner
grades from $3.00 down. Veal calves have

Blockers and feeders have been in fairly

be quoted steady for the week. Common

a little lower. Oood to choice srrsdea sell

WOUS There waa a light run here this
morning, but the market uld not snow any
improvement, 'ine quality of th offerings
waa hardly as good aa yesterday anu, tak
ing that tact into consideration, the mar
km started out about steady. After pack
ers had their more urgent orders filled
they were inclined to be bearish, so that
the close waa alow and weak. Tha bulk
of tha hogs went from 34 60 to $4.70, with
choice loads selling from 34.70 to 4476. The
commoner kinds went from M.60 down. Al-
tnougn tne market was not active at any
time, still practically evervthlna waa de
posed ot by 10 o'clock la the morning.
For the week receipts have been light,
aa there Is a decrease aa compared with
laat week amounting to mora than 16,00
head and aa compared with th same week
of last year there is a decrease ot about
24.000 head. Tne market has not fluctuated
mucn during tn week, but prices have
averagad a littlo better than laxt week,
though at the close the market Is only a
shade higher than at the close of last week.
Packers have not taken hold with much
life, so that It has been Impossible for
salesman to advance th market lo any
extent. Representative sales;
