THE CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
Wheat and Corn Sell HiGher-An In
crease in the supply of Oats.

CHICAGO, April Wheat averaged
higher on the steady tone to foreign mar
kets and the strength in corn. The feature
was the widening OF TIE May and July diff
ference TO / lac. The acreage statistical
returns were generally bearish. Primary
receipts were $50, 600 bushels less than last
year and clearances were 100000 bushels.
There was no cash business done here.
May corn touched SO IL. There was a
large export demand. Sales from here were
probably around $50 0C0 bushels. Clearances
were 400. Gee bushels. Gables we're about
steady. The demand was largely from
shippers against cash business. The selling
was in the way of realizing.
Oats gained 1-Sdl-4c chiefly a matter
of sympathy with corn. Spring work is at
hand, and the countrymen are apparently
getting in the mood of holding oats, al
though no one claims any lack of supply.
The visible increased $50, 600 bushels. Re
ceipts were 224 cars. Tuesdays estimate
is 315 cars.
Buying on outside orders advanced sharp
ly at the opening Notwithstanding the hog
market was sc lower This market con-
tinues to rule strong on buying by pack

large line of long lard was thrown on
the market and was well taken by pack

was reported
The times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1897-1901, 1900-04-03

The market was an interesting one yes
terday. but there were several surprises
IN II, most OF which we're keen disap-
poiDtments. The opening was at prices
considerably better than those of Satur-
days close. II was followed immediate
~ however, by break in Sugar OF sew
eral points, which hurt the entire list and
caused reaction of point or more Be
fore noon the general list became buoy
ant again, led by the grangers and other
railway securities and many of these
stocks made new high records for the
movement. The steel and iron securities
were a keen disappointment to many care
full market people. who had looked FOR
the beginning OF an upward movement In
them this week. They were very strong
last Saturday, on what was said to be
inside buying, and they opened yesterday
morning with a boom to the highest prices
of the year. From these opening prices
the. entire group sagged off all day, and
at times their decline was rapid enough 10
be called a tumble. Federal Steel was
the weakest OF the group. getting more
than four points below the high OF the
morning

The MARKET ADVANCES
An Upward Movement Accompanies
Heavy Profit Taking.
The Dealings at the Opening Were
in Tremendous NoIume-The Gran
posed Revision of the Internal
Revenue Lnws-Industrinis Active.

NEW YORK, April 2.-Business was re-
sumed on the Stock Exchange this morn
ing with no change in the essential condi-
lions governing The speculation over Sun
day As was TO be expected the market
opened at sharp and general advances,
Sugar Refining being the only exception of
any note. The dealings in the first hour
were in tremendous volume, and they re-
nected an unusual distribution of specu-
latiye interest The feature Of the early
dealings was the exceedingly heavy profit
taking selling that appeared in all
quarters On the other hand foreign
houses continued to buy here in large vol
ume and there was further notable eX-
pansion in commission house buying
The realization of profits was, how
ever. in sufficient volume in the forenoon
TO check temporarily the rising tendency
of prices and there was a significant fall
ing away in activity upon the resultant
reaction. Subsequently. however, the
market developed renewed strength and
activity under the leadership of the
granger shares. which all advanced with
particular rapidity.
AS noted. there were no changes in any
of the important features of the situation
over Sunday and apparently the heavy
profit realizing of the morning was in
duced simply by considerations respecting
the rapidity and extent of the rise in
prices within the past fortnight. Today
was likewise bare of important develop
ments other than the February statements
of a number of important railways.
Sterling exchange was firmer, but
money market conditions showed no al
iteration. General satisfaction was eX-
pressed at todays advices from Washing
ton relating to the desire of the Admins
tration for a revision of the internal
revenue laws. If such legislation can be
enacted at this session of Congress it Will
virtually assure a stable money market
throughout the year.
In consequence of the mornings heavy
profit taking sales the market had a more
irregular appearance than it has shown
since the general rise in prices set in two
weeks ago. The movements in the indus
trial quarter were particularly violent and
erratic, all of the so-called steel indus
trials advancing rapidly at the opening of
business and subsequently, reacting with
notably severity.
The local traction shares were neglected
throughout the day and with the excep-
ton of Brooklyn Rapid Transit, were
heavy. The most pronounced advances
In the market were in General Electric
Peoples Gas, Anaconda Mining and nota-
bly, Lake Erie and Western, common and
preferred. Sugar Refining moved counter
TO the market throughout, the stock
breaking sharply at the opening of bust
ness. when the general market moved
upward, while il recovered nearly the
whole of its initial loss during the general
reaction of the forenoon. Competitive re-
auctions in the selling price of coffee were
announced today, and they furnished
further evidence, if any is needed, that the
trade war is still on in undated vigor.
