Messrs Hubbard. Price & Co. s. cotton circu-
lar says; There is still narrow market, with
apparent hesitation in operations, and most of
| the business is confined to local Scalpng. An
absence of encouraging features from abroad
| induced some selling this morning and a small
| decline of points, which was assisted by liberal
| receipts, but the shorts thereby created pre-
| ferred afterward to cover in the face of to-
morrow's holiday and stimulated the feeling
! sufficiently to put the cost point above last
nights close. Some June notices were in circu-
lation during the earlier part of the day, but
| later on were withdrawn

| CHICAGO May 29.-There was little or no
news from the outside to affect prices in wheat,
and during the morning it looked as if the local
crowd had gotten over their selling fever of
yesterday afternoon, and fair amount of buy
ing caused firmer feeling and an advance in
prices 1t was of short duration, however, for
before noon prices sagged down to about open
ing figures, and about 1905 O'Clock there were
realization sales and prices went nearly under
the closing bottom figures of yesterday. Corn
was quite stubborn. and sold at bottom prices
during the morning session, but the last half
hour brought weakness, and the closing prices
were A0l6c under last night, with figures
almost together. Receipts were 1,041 cars, with
sos cars of No. grade. July sold from 5434c
up to 554c, aud down TO and closed at 5416c.
| Oats opened strong, with good demand, but
the demand soon fell off and the market be-
came heavy May opened at 37lac and sold
down to 3634c and closed at &c. July opened
at 3316c advanced to 333Sc, declined to 33c,
closing at 33Ac. A moderate business was
transacted in provisions, bat it was mostly be-
| tween professionals. Arrivals of hogs were
| lighter and prices higher Offerings of the
| product were not particularly free. and fluctua-
| lions were confined to q narrow range. and at
the close was practically the same as yesterday.
