Chicago, April 10.-The shadow OF
the impending government crop report
hung over the wheat market all day.
At the commencement it obscured the
prospects of the bulls and near the end
of the session it cast the pathway OF
the bears into a sombre shade. After
a decline of lie May wheat closed with
a net gain of 1sc. Corn is unchanged
and oats &c lower Pork lost TIC
and lard and ribs 21ac each.
Fine weather and expectation among
traders that the government crop re-
port would be less extravagant as to
the serious injury to winter wheat
than the recent reports have been de-
veloped weakness in wheat at the be-
ginning May opened as@7sc lower at
from 70ac down to 701ac, and as gen.
eral liquidation set in the price slipped
off gradually to 701Ac, at that point
the decline was arrested by report
from New York that fifty boatloads
of wheat had been disposed for ex-
port. AS that announcement was ac-
companied by the statement that the
weather on the continent of Europe
had turned favorable for grain crops,
early sellers showed a disposition to
buy back former holdings. Chicago
received SO cars of which Is were
graded contract Minneapolis and Du-
luth got AIT compared with 271 fos
the corresponding day year ago. Ag-
gregate of receipts at Western pri-
mary markets amounted to 10000
bushels aainst 100000 bushels last
year. Atlantic port clearances of
wheat and flour eaualled $4,000 BUSH
els. In the last hour of the session
confidence as to the forthcoming crop
report being bearish was upset and the
market recovered all it's early decline.
May rose to 711ac and closed at 71B@
71Ac
Liquidation on account of the mild
weather an reports that seeding was
well under way in many States weak
ened corn early. Later, however, buy
ing by elevator people agaist sales for
shipment together with the concluding
f1rmness of wheat caused firm feel
ing near the end. May started AM3sc
lower at 1878 @33Ac, sold off to 33Mc,
advanced to 343sc, and closed with
buyers at S4Ac.
Oats broke at the start on selling
by elevator interests against corn pur-
chasers. Subsequently the decline was
recovered on bullish country advices,
better cash demand, although shipping
transactions were embarrassed by
small offerings. Receipts eighty-two
cars. May began A@asc lower at 257s
@26c, declined to 253z @257sc, rallied
to 261zc and closed at 26Hc.
Provisions were fat and transac-
lions consisted principally on changing
from May to July. There was an i'm
preston that much of the present May
holdings would have to be liauidated
at loss and the belief prevailed that
the market will he lifeless and drop
ping until those holdings were liuui-
dated. May pork opened TIC lower at
1920, sold off to s9.15, recovered to
$9.221sc, closing at 1920. The range
in lard and ribs were exceedingly mar
row.
Estimated receipts for Tuesday:
Wheat, 8 cars corn, 257 cars; oats,
40 cars; hogs, 10000 head.

New York, April 10.-The advance in

prices moved UP SO to 621a points, with
demand very heavy on the railways.
The cause for this further improve
ment was in part very light supplies,
strong news from the west and reports
OF decided stiffening of the English
market. Even at the higher prices Of

departments were practically unchang-
ed and featureless. Metal exchange

Stocks-Interest in stock speculation
to-day was on a diminished scale, the
dealings aggregating little over half
million shares. Prices moved in an I'M
certain manner and number Of
marked net losses resulted There was
decline at the opening in specialties,
particularly participated, mid-Ga
rally led by the Vanderbilts, and IN
afternoon decline in which the grang-
ers were prominent. The liquidation
of Friday permitted number of broI1-
crs to return borrowed money and cali
rates were generally easier, 6 to PER
cent. prevailing the greater part of the
Gay. Several million dollars of ster-
ling lcarS were made and call to-day
closed at 3W4. Foreign bankers appar-
emily assumed that comparatively good
prices were probable here for money
Tor a more or less protracted period
The sterling loans were responsible fer
an easier tone in the sterling exchange
market. The recurrence of syndicate
operations and the fotati0n of indus
trials is the basis for the expectation
of fair rates at least for money. This
week S28,000,000 approximately is to be
called in connection with the 1otation
of the American Pump Co., the Chicago
& Alton syndicate deal and suhScrip.
tion ON Manhattan, while the call for
subscriptions involving several million
dollars on the steel hoop combination
has been postponed. Commission
hotlse business fell off considerably,
but there was evidence of an effort to
stimulate interest in the market in
some specialties again. now that Fri
days decline had wiped out weak hold
Ings. Some large accounts were closed
out to-day, causing the early decline.
One block of $4,000 shares of Brooklyn
Transit we,S sold just after the opening.
The Vanderbilt shares, which all adj
vanced smartly, retained part Of their
rise. Gossip was the subscription
privileges Advanced Great Northern
preferred. Consolidated Gas broke s
points. presumably because CT the pub
lished interview with a prominent poll
tician navcring municipal ownership
of that industry. The selling of the
grangews in the afternoon was due to
the apprehension as to the possible
character OF the government crop state
ment to be made known this afternoon.
The market closed steady.
Transactions in railway mortgages
were rather light and while the market
lacked decided tone, the changes
either way were only fractional. Total
sales, $2,235 900.

AT LAST A, JOKE ON pEPEW.
The Senator in Hiding TO Escape n
MOb of Hohse-Ouners

! Chauncey NJ. tDepew. erstwhile after
! dinner-speaker but now Senator from New
| York, is confined TO his apartments at the
| Arlington, and not even an invitation TO a
I Gridiron dinner could, tempt him to go forth
and face the citZenry OF Washington For
a long time DR.. Depew had a mechanics
| lien on the article known as Joke but even
the joke will turn, and as a result Mr.
Depew is confined to his apartments and
will receive no cards
On Thursday a delighted public was in
formed that the new Senator from New
| York desired to lease a house in this city.
Any kind of house would do, so that
friends might there be received and enter
tanned. The house, of course, must be
large. in keeping with the popularity of
Senator Depew. The information was alb
sorbed rapidly and all those having houses
TO sell or to rent saw a grand opportunity.
Why need the jocund Depew hunt houses
when the houses go out to hunt the jocund
Depew? And each house-vendor hied him
self to the Arlington and awaited the
pleasure OF the Senator.
Cards began to come in just before din
ner on Thursday Senator Depew receiv-
ed the first half-dozen callers and inform
ed them that he was delighted to see
them, but did not care for a house today.
thank you AT dinner time, Mr.. Depew
refused to receive cards After dinner an
anxious crowd of men with houses to rent
or sell had gathered in the lobby of the
hotel. and wanted to see Mr.. Depew on
very important business. When the wor-
ricd Senator returned to his apartment he
found a small bale of visiting cards await
ing him. The cards died a horrible death,
but more continued to come up.
Senator Depew finally asked n bellboy
if it would be safe to journey down stairs,
and was informed that the forty fifth caller
was very mild but that the men who had
been waiting since $50 were getting an
cry. A general order was then issued, to
the effect that Senator Depew was out,
and no cards could be received.
Yesterday the crush was terrible. The
Arlington was occupied by a crowd of men
who looked and sounded like a Congress
of Unoccupied House Owners and Agents.
The crowd came to stay, and they refused
to see or hear anyone but Senator Depew.
They had desirable locations in George
town. Mt. Pleasant. Chevy Chase, and else
where, and they knew that Mr.. Depew
would be so pleased.
In the mean time, Senator Depew is
thinking seriously of going to Australia or
Terra del FuegO, or some other place,
where houses are not. And men with houses
to rent continue to call for Senator De-
pew.
