GOOD CROP REPORTS MAKE WHEAT HEAVY Prices Show Decline, Not withstanding Display of
 Rallying Power

Chicago, May S.-Prospects of a bounti- full and early harvest was too much of a handicap today for wheat supporters, and the market, notwithstanding a display of power to rally. closed heavy at & to 1&c net decline. Corn finished to Is to 1Ac down. oats off B to 1ssc, and pro- visions unchanged to 7lsc lower.
 Corn sagged more constantly than wheat. Excellent field conditions and larger receipts were chiefly responsible.
 Oats weakened under hedging against new crop purchases to arrive. Rains ca st gave an additional advantage to the bears.
 Large receipts of hogs acted as weight on provisions. Continued liberal export clearances, though helped in averting any serious decline
 Future quotations were as follows:

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, May 3.-(Special.)- .)-Antici- pating a period of favorable weather for the new crop believing all of the inc creased demand for cotton goods and for other purposes has been discounted that the decrease in the acreage, the de- crease in the use of fertilizers; in fact, believing that all tn factors which are absorbing the cotton and pointing to decidedly smaller crop next year have ceased to weigh in favor of the market the sentiment has become very bearish, with a natural incrase in the short in- terest.
 The destruction of an American sbip created the fear of international com plcations causing the liquidation of many Wall street accounts. We consider this decline as a natural reaction and do not change our views as to the course of the market eventually to higher range of values.
