noon the dealings had assumed a steady tone,
gradually becoming strong and continuing to ad-

realzations, and under the leadership of the
grangers and sugar a decline set in which con-

THE WOOL MARKET.

BOSTON, MASS, May S.-The American Wool
and Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow of the
wool trade: The market ruled quiet. Now and
then round lots of wool have heen disposed Of but
the transactions of the past week have been mostly
of small parcels. The number of purchasers in the
market has been small and most of those who have
appeared have bought sparingIy. In foreign wool
there has been less doing than last week. while in
domestic stock except in California and Montana
woods, there have been few transactions worthy of
note. The weak opening of the London sales I'M
queStlonably eXerted an influence on the market,
but to-day dispatches indicate hardening ten
dency in the prices OF woods, which has somewhat
sthened the ideas of those interested in foreign
stocks.
A factor which has acted unfavorably on the
market has been the labor disturbances in Olney-
ville near Providence. The mills affected by the
troubles of labor are very large purchasers of WOOL
and the withdrawal of the demand from this source
has certainly exercised an apprecable effect on the
weeks business. Latest adviCeS from the wool
growing section indicate the purchasing fever has
somewhat cooled of, and that affairs are somewhat
queter There has been developed this season,
however, q tendency among the traders in the
interior. who are not regular buyers, TO buy wool
on account OF its low price These outside parties,
who would buy anything if it cheap, whether
cotton leather or iron. have been led to take hold
OF WOOL basng their action the theory that there
has been an advance in all other lines of staple
merchandise, and hat wool Will follow.
This speculative buying among those outside OF
the wool trade has not yet assumed large proper
tons, but il is diScernible and worthy OF note.
There is no speculative buying among members of
the WOOL trade; the result has been quoting
down. Prices have ruled steady in this market,
and transactions have been mostly On the basis of
quotations previously given. The sales of the
week amount to 1,S59,SU0 pounds domestic and
974,9O0 pounds foreign, making total of 1854
700 pounds, against total Of 9,346 100 pounds for
for the corresponding week last year. The sales
since January l. 1898. amount to 55 962,S5O
pounds, against 46, l3S, 500 pounds year ago.
The aggregate sales III Philadelphia have
amounted 10 l.263,3OO.

The cattle trade rather slow and prices were
no more than steady a rule. The exporC trade
is unimproved. Common to choice native steers
weighing from $50 to 1850 pounds were salabie
al 81 2516 with the bulk of the transactions at
$5d5 90. For butchers, and Gamers stock there
was brisker demand than for dressed beef cattle
and prices ruled strong, cows and heifers selling at

calves with ready sales at $500 per 100 pounds,
stoclSer and feeder trade was fairly active at an
extreme range Of 81 1904 so. Texas cattle re-
Ceipts were about 1000 head and there was good
demand at firm prices, not many grass cattle be-
ing offered. The best sold around SIS 25.
Only $4,000 hogs arrived TODAY. and the re-
ceipts for the first malt the week show reduc-
tiOn OF IL 0c0 head from the receipts for the same
time last week There was an active demand
from both local packers and Eastern shippers,
prices ruling firm and in some instances SC per 100
pounds higher. The offerings were mostly sold
early in the day, and as the average quality was
very good sales largely not far from the top.
Heavy hogs sold at an extreme range OF 81 25G1
10 light, "a 25G4 so, and pigs at S4d4 % while
culs were picked up at $2614. The larger part of
the hogs sold at 81 50@4 g. and lot brought

There was an active demand for sheep and the
recent advance in the British market helped the
export trade in a marked degree. Prices were
strong TO loo higher, with sales of inferior to

CHICAGO MARKETS.

CHICAGO ILL, May S.-Wheat started with
show Of strength to-day and the prices stood up
remarkably well until about u o'clock, bu about
that time the props were withdrawn and it had
severe tumble. Some of the early strength was
Que 10 the bullshness in corn and some Of it was
ascrbed to the Mort hwestern elevator proprietors
who bought July wheat freely all morning and re-
placed their hedges by selling September to an
equal extent. The opening trades in July were at
from 631s@6314c and the price did not get sub
stantially below 63c until midday. 1t had in the
meantime sold high as 633s@631ac but by
about 1915 it tumbled to 623sc in quickserder.
Some 100000 bushels OF hard spring wheat were
reported worked for export from Duluth and a
dispatch from there said that the market was on a
parity with Glasgow C. l. T. prices.
As regards red winter wheat closely con-
cerned spectators say that prices here are from
&c 10 &c above export basis. The chartering of
vessels for the shipment OF 253.000 bushels caused
a slight revival the-c close and there were buy-
ers at 6212c as the session ended.
The corn market was firm and averaged higher
than on the day before. but in the end there was
very little change. The opening for July was 5O3lc
and 1t advanced to bic before it had any decline
1t then turned down to 503Isc, but had quick ad-
vance to 5l12c on the covering OF heavy short
line by prominent commission-house. 1t worked
down again TO 5O6sc and closed with sellers at
5O34c. The receipts were only IS cars and the
shipments $4,000 bushels.
Oats were fairly active during the greater part of
the session. Fluctuations were to a great extent
ruled by corn. The cash market for oats was
frmer and extended into the nearby deliveries
July and September were lower at the close. Nav
sold from 2S12@2S34c and closed there. July
started at 2S5S(d2S34c, sold 2S34c down to
2S3sc and rested at 2S12c.
Provisions firm and closed with advances
