ALL MARKETS DECLINED
WEAKNESS IN WHEAT CAUSED BY
HEAVY WORLDS SHIPMENTS.
Large Hog Receipts and the Break in
Wheat Prices Responsible for the
Slump in Provisions.

CHICAGO, May 17-AlI the grain and
provision markets ruled weak to-day and
closed at declines Wheat was affected by
weak cables and heavy worlds shipments
and declined 11sc. Corn and oats lost IA
&c. Provisions suffered severely, pork los
ing 2214c, while lard and ribs declined about
712c each
Bulls in wheat had good deal of bear
fsh news to digest at the opening The
chief items of information were comprised
in the weakness of foreign markets, fine
growing weather and very heavy North
western receipts. They caused an immedi-
ate unloading at a decline of from lie to 1Ac
per bushel of good deal of July wheat
The first trades in that months delivery
were at from 71sc down to 71ssc, as COM
pared with 72Bc Saturday. In less than an
hour July had dropped to 1Ac. The bulls
had more than has yet been mentioned to
sicken them of their holdings. The world S
shipments last week were $4,000 bu COM
pared with 4,743 900 bu on the week before.
This is the largest amount reported in
months, and a He'd decline at Liverpool was
accredited to that fact. The quantity. on
ocean passage increased 1,O40000 bu. Mime
apoliS and Duluth received $50 cars, against
4l9 Monday week ago and 401 the COR
responding day of the year before. The Wis
ible supply decreased 2,125,000 bu against
$4,000 bu decrease a year ago. The market
was not Immediately affected by such a
heavy disappearance of elevator stock since
week ago. but when the last cablegram
from Liverpool showed 1ad of the earlier
led decline had been recovered the price
here began gradually to rise and about IL
o clock had reached 7116Q72c. 1t was said
that 100000 bu or so of the wheat reported
sold last week for shipment East by lake
was to-day being loaded into vessels That
also helped toward the recovery. But the
market weakened again after short squirt
to 721sc, and by closing time liquidation
had forced July down to 71Ac.
Corn was fairly active. The market was
very weak early on the fine weather, the
break in wheat aud selling by elevator peo-
pie Later, shorts covered literally and
We're 10000 blu. July opened asc lower at
24a4c, sold at 249sc ana reacted to 24Mc,
where it closed.
Only a moderate business was transacted
in oats. The tone for the most part was
weak on the fine weather, but cash BUSH
ness partially counteracted this. Prices
kept within narrow range The visible
decreased $4,000 bu. July opened about Ac
lower, at 17B018c, sold between IT'S and
1SG1S1sc, closing at 1T7s418c.
Provisions were weak, with everything
lower all day. The fine weather, large hog
receipts and the break in wheat all helped
in the decline The market had no support
except from shorts. The cash demand was
only moderate. At the close July pork was
2212c lower, at $445; July lard, 712c lower, at
$3.50, and July ribs, about &c lower, at $4.5
Estimated Receipts for Tuesday-Wheat,
9 cars; corn, 155 cars; oats, $50 cars; hogs,
q $50 head.

Dry Goods.

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE situation in dry
goods circles is unchanged to-day. Staple cot
tons show no changes of consequence. Brown
run of export buyers has fallen off, Coarse col
ored cottons are without change Tickngs are
as firm as any line, but the demand is not heavy
even in these goods. Print cloths quoted at
7-16c for extras. In prints there is little life
shown. Trading is quiet in all lines of staples,
and prices quite firm, though low. Jobbers re-
port dull day, and retailers open the week
with comparatively quiet trading.
