Chicago Markets..

Chicago, April 5.-The whea market
Today was weak, almost uninterrupted
~ from the opening to the close. The
news OF such a character to dampen the
ardor Of the bulls and TO impart cour-
age to the short seller. All European
markets were lower. The worlds ship
ments were larger than they have re-
Gently been and the visible supply de-
creasing only moderately. Towards the
close he weakness became more pro-
nounced and final quotations were al
most at the inside for the session.
The weakness Of wheat as an influence
on corn proved more potent than indie
pendent considerations. Light receipts
were. OF course, favorable to steady and
firm prices, but they were not effective
as an offset TO the surrounding depres-
sion. May corn opened at 24k@2lAc.
and advanced to 2iasc., closing ut 24hc c.
hMAc. under Saturday. .
There was a pretense OF stcadiness in
oats. The light receipts and reported de-
layed seeding were the active means in
determining the tone
Provislons-The product market was
IN a generally inanimate condition.
- Op'nE. Highest. Cls'ng.

New York, April 5.-Vhile business
was less active to-day, only 135, GA
snareS having changed hands, the mar
ket was Irregular In the course. Open
ING nsures were generally low, with the
pressure against Jersey Central.
rms STOCK broke nearly 3 points to 7GA,
ana then rallied sharply on reports that
me regular dividend would be declared.
.tfhen 1t was announced that the direc-
tors had reduced dividend from q 8 10
q 4 per cent. basis the stock. instead of
declining, advanced sharply to SO3,. The
ropped back to 77as. The other Anthra-
cite coalers, with the exception or Della
ware and Hudson, were not influenced
Wy the erratic movements in Jersey Cen
trail and held tolerably steady through
out.
Delaware and Hudson first rose about
2 points to 1895 and receded to 1O23s@
1O2& The railway list was feverish dur
ing the early session, but later devcl-
oped on renewed selling, prin-
c1pal!y for professional account. This
selling movement was based partially on
the announcement from Washington
that the Joint Traffic Association case
would not be heard until the October
term OF the United States Supreme
court n to the revival Of the Cuban
agitation in the Senate. The depression
was most pronounced in the case Of the
Changers and Louisville and Nashville.
These stocks We're weak to the close and
lost anywhere from z TO IA per cent.
from the top OF the day. Burlington and
Quincy suffered the greatest loss.
Speculation left off weak in tone. Net
changes show declines OF B@lM per
cent. Jersey Central, which was the
most active stock, figured for &c, 600
shares In the total dealings. The trad
ing in st. Paul footed up l6,iOO shares in
burlington, and Quincy, 5000; Sugar.
10000. London operations were on a
small scale and commission house bust
ness was light.
The market for railway and misccl-
laneous Il was dull IL firm. Sales.
