was thought that the Prune crop this year
would be record breaker but within the last
ports from their correspondents in Santa Clara,
Sonoma, YoIo and Solano counties and also in
the San Joaquin Valley, that a remarkable
change has taken place during the past week
and that the Prunes are dropping by whole
sale, and that from current estimates the crop
will not turn out over 80 per cent at best
and in a large number Of districts not over 25
per cent of an average yield. Some districts
report only 10 per cent. While various reasons
are given for the drop the one most generally
accepted is that the frequent late rains have
caught the trees in blossom and prevented per

Hay and Feedstuns.

Previous prices rule for all descriptions. Tho
circular of somers & Co. says of Hay:
The condition of the Hay market shows but
little change from the report made a week
ago; receipts although less than last week,
still continue quite heavy. the total amounting
to 272O tons The medium and poorer grades
there is an overabundance Of cheap Hay and
prices are ruling low. The poorest grades can
be used for nothing but stock feed, and on
account of the plentiful supply of grass there
is but little demand among the stotck and
cattle men.
either wheat and oat or tame oat have been
offered on the market during the week Such
HAY is nearly always in fair demand and at
present comparatively good figures can be OBJ
tanned.
Concerning the new crop, we can simply
state that II promises 70 be large. Reports
seem to show that there will be but little
choice Hay put up, as In most Of the districts
contributary to the San Francisco market the
growth is very rank, promising an abundance

Future Grain and Provisions

CHICAGO, April 1e.--Weakness in wheat de-
veloped in the last half of the session. the
sentiment being quite bearish. AT the opening
the market was influenced by higher prices
in Liverpool. July opened a shade higher at
SSQSS1c. May was II c lower TO y c higher
at 81 Is to 81 1914. For time July was in
ferings were light. The result was moderate
advance, the price rising to SSas 4SS15c before
the end OF the first half hour. Scattered buy
ing of May sent the price OF that option TO
81 1870.
Reports of frost last night in various Sec
tions Of the wheat belt had strengthening
influence the market early in the day,
Later the market became decidedly weak.
Concident with the slump there was heavy
liquidation in the May option. 1t was said
in the pit that a bull clique was endeavoring
to dispose of part of the clique holdings a
factor decidedly instrumental in causing the
favorable progress in the development of win
ter wheat Predictions of rain followed by
warmer weather in the southwest gave addf-
uonal announcement to the bears
An unusually liberal increase In primary re-
ceipts aided the selling movement Several
large commission houses were active sellers
of July which as a result declined to S7Lc
Meantime May sold off to 81 13%. Just be-
fore the close part of the loss in July was
regained on covering by shorts, but May con-
tinued heavy. The market left off weak with
May esc lower at 81 1875 and July off &c at
s15sc
corn market had comparatively firm under
tone. July closed unchanged at 471hc
Weakness in wheat started liberal proft :
taking in oats July closed with q loss OF
kQAc.
Extreme dullness pervaded the provision
market. Owing to the continued heavy re-
cepts of hogs, sentiment in the Dit was a
trihe bearish. At the close all July products
were 21Ac lower
