SHEEP-There was no visible inquiry for
stock of any kind in the sheep barn this
morning ana with a fully normal supply
on hand prices dropped to lower levels all
a.ong the line. Eastern receipts were
much larger than expectations and very
bearish wires from all of the leading trade
centers only served to strengthen local
buyers in their determination to hammer
values.
Very little business was done. however
until well along toward noon, and even at
that time hardly enough sales had been
made to obtain much of an idea of the
actual condition of trade. 1t was a slow,
diaggy deal from start to finish, prices
ranging all the way from dime to a quar-
ter lower, according to quality and weight
Handyweight shorn lambs have been yield
ing good percentages lately and were
favored by killers, the same as last week,
but they had to sell lower and broke al
most as badly as other classes of stock

CHICAGO, May 16.-Indications were
plentiful that followers OF the leading
longs were selling out wheat today. The
northwest, too, sold considerable here. Fine
rams over the entire winter and spring
wheat country materially improved the
crop outlook and led to somewhat de-
cided change in sentiment. The close was
steady, but at a decline of &c TO A4bc
Corn and oats finished 1sc lower 10 &c
higher. Provisions lost 21fQ719c.
The wheat market took on heavy tone
from the start. The close was at almost
the lowest prices OF the day. Evident
weakness OF northwestern and southwest
ern markets had considerable influence. 1t
was asserted that the rains had come at a
particularly inopertune time to fill the
ma turing wheat In southern areas. A sub
Jet OF comment was that southwestern re-
ceipts today were more than three times
asAlarge~a year ago and that st. Louis
prices for cars of No. 2 red were &c lower
than last week. Furthermore, northwestern
receipts were increasing. and worlds ship
ments were large. Near the end of the
session Pacific coast reports were received
1 that the carry-over there to the next crop
would be the largest ever known: Talk
n Was current of additional possible pur-
chases of wheat at Duluth to come to Chi

Of the hog market this morning were any

coupled with sharply lower advices from
of Saturdays advance, leaving prices gen

opening sales were just about a dime
lower, but a light supply and reasonably
active competition from shippers resulted
in some improvement, quite little busl-
