WHEAT DULL AND WEAK
BEARIsH NEWS AND FEARS OF A
BEARIsH REPORT DEPREss PRICES.
and &c in Wheat-PrOvisiOnsA Also
Close at Declines.

CHICAGO, May 1.-THE wheat market
was a weak affair to-day, due to generally
bearish news, and June closed &c lower.
Corn was off nc, with oats down &c. and
September provisions closed from 10 to 1213c
lower.
Trading in the wheat pit was exceedingly
dull the greater part of the session, oper-
ators being disposed to remain quiet await
ing the issuance of the government crop re-
port. Worlds shipments and general rains
throughout the Southwest had tendency
to depress prices at the start, and July
these influences there was quite general
selling by. commission houses and local
Set declined Still Jny se
ing off to 72% The decline was
brokers by the leading operator, but
caused a bearish sentiment in the pit and
selling pressure again became apparent
with one or two big houses on that side Of
port late in the day and frmer tone de-
veloped, July closing Sc lower, at 72ssc,
after selling down to 72lsc. The amount on
wheat and flour were equal TO 471,O00 blu.
Primary receipts were 40S, 800 blu, against
sos, 200 "a year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth
reported receipts of 1873 cars which, with
grade-made a total of 245 cars, against $40
last week and 264 year ago.
Corn was quiet and while prices were
fairly steady early in the session. the gener-
al dizziness later resulted in an easier feel
ing There was scattered selling by local
traders the increased receipts and no
particular effort was made to support the
market The weakness in wheat had a de-
pressing influence later, and July closed
Ac lower, at 44Ac. after selling between
447sc and 45c Receipts were ESQ cars 26 of
contract grade.
Oats were dull and eased off in sympa-
thy with other cereals There was scat
tered liquidation by small holders and the
demand was limited. The early feature
was buying of May by prominent COM
mission house. While the sentiment in the
pit was divided, most of traders appeared
timid owing to the uncertainty of the crop
prospects. After ranging between 32c and
32Ac, July closed Ac lower, at 32elS2lsc Re
ceipts were Isl cars
The weakness in grains and heavy re-
ceipts of hogs, with lower prices at the
yards, were mainly responsible for the
easier tone in provisions. The selling. how
ever, was not on large scale and brokers'.

LOCAL WHOLESALE TRADE
TRAVELLING MEN START CUT UNDER
VERY FAVORABLE CONDITIONS.
Dry Goods Dealers. Grocers and Iron
and Steel Merchants Are Especially
Busy-Grafn Markets Are Light.

The week opened under vely promising
conditions for a big trade. Al majority of
the 100 or more travelling saissmen Of In
dianapolis houses started out yesterday un-
der as favorable conditions IS were ever
known locally. Retail grocers of the coun-
try are feeling cheerful. The3 are selling
more goods than ever and payments were
never more prompt Farmers seem to have
more money than in any fornier year and
people are disposed to live better than
heretofore. The dry goods travelling men
carry large lines and with the tendency TO
higher prices the retail merchants are more
in readiness to make purchases. There are
some lines of goods in which fhe wholesale
houses are short, being affected by the
strikes in New England mills. Wholesale
grocers are having a very large business
and their statesmen, with the bStter weather
for moving goods from stations to the coun-
try towns ere enabled to sell Sarge bills on
the railroads. and have given special atten-
ton to this line of trade. Con [ectioners re-
port trade as good Tor d9e se2s0 r ana Ma IN
Iron and hardware dealers have their fuli
number of travelling statesmen Aut. They are
selling unusually large bills, and are en-
ploying more travelling men than any other
line of trade In the city. Druggists are quite
busy The entrance into business of another
wholesale drug house apparently Is not ef-
fecting the trade of the oldet houses, al
though the proprietors of the INV house say
their trade is fully up to expectations. The
-four market rules steady ARD the move
ment is good. The produce market is weak
er all along the line and reductions will be
noticed in both eggs and posiltry. Butter
rules steady at the reduction iof Saturday.
That prices for eggs will go lower with the
approach of warm weather is without ques-
ton; and poultry, as the season advances.
will be likely to decline to the level of years
changes in prices will be noted. A number
Of articles are practically oft the market
and prices are dropped. Green beans are
higher and Irish potatoes advanced cents
a bushel. The strawberry market was
glutted and prices broke badly.

The arrivals were principally steers, and most

something unusual at this time in the week.
and while there was really urgent competi-

sales for the most part were at steady prices

SC lower. but they were probably not as good
as the cattle that here last Thursday and
