CHICAGO , May 10. Wildly fluctuating 2o-

a hu. , wheat today closed at 1.14 for July ,

a toss of ' compared with the final llg-tires yesterday. A collapbc from 1.23 , a newhigh record for July , to 1.03 , chlelly In thelast quarter of an hour , was the main spei-tucular

! -features , Sales to realize prolllu

principally caused the fearful slide. A hairraising quick rally of lOc , due to covering by-

nhorts , followed Just before the closinggong. May closed at 1.83 , the highest pointof the season , and a net advance of Cc ,

Ijcltcr reported sales of 650,000 hu. cashwheat abroad , at an advance since yester-day

¬

of 9c , apparently proving that foreign-ers

¬

still wanted wheat , despite a drop at-Liverpool. . Corn nnd oats ruled weak on-realizing. . July corn lost l',4f(3-8c( , oats *4 U-

7fc ; provisions ruled dull , finishing at de-

clines¬

of IGc for pork and 24'05c! ' lor lard ,

with ribs unchanged.Intense excitement In the wheat pit

imirked the dny from the start. LiverpoolHhowcd a decline at thu opening of 6u u-

bu for May and He for September. Thiswns offHut by a preliminary jump of ICUc In-July. . But the second cables showed a sud-den

¬

slump In July also. This unlookcd forI ioccduru on thu part of the English marketcaused n weak opening here. July beganwith declines of 2ft3o. Trades were on arange of 117ifH18. Four subsequent quo-tations

¬

reduced the price to J1.10' ; . Herethe supply of. wheat suddenly vanished andquotations steadily advanced to 1.23 , thehighest point reached yet by the July op-tl

-( n. May wheat was only heard from at

long Intervals. Trading in It began 2c lower(it 173. The succeeding sales were at 1.75 ,

1.80 and 185. It had occasional reactionsto 1.80 , but was Immediately picked up.About 11 o'clock , when July touched 1.25 ,

It rebounded to 1.24 , returned to 1.25 , andtook n steady downward course. Stop or-ders

¬

on long wheat seemed thick , and closeunder the market. The downward lllght-nau checked temporarily at around 1.17 ,

Trade was narrow and ordinary orders werehard to execute. Routine cut littlefigure In the early dealings. Local receiptswere 236 cars , compared with ten last yearMinneapolis and Duluth got 411 cars , agalnsl4)8!) the year before. Today's primary re-celpts aggregated 616,000 bu. , compared willonly 375,000 bu. last year. Atlantic porlclearances of wheat and Hour were equal tc-

r nQ,00) hu. The closing quotations from eontlnental markets showed advances at Parisequal to 4c a IU. for May and 3 1-Su for September-December. Antwerp was up equa-te 2 5-8c a bu. A quarter of nn hour bcfonthe close the Hood of long wheat broki-loose. . The selling was based largely upolthe presumption that today's governmeniclop report might be bearish. Scalpers veiltured to put out short lines. July Hlumpii-In u couple of minutes from around 1.18 ti115. Most of thu traders weru a full cen-apart. . When the liquidation was uxlmustet-uliorts tried to even up and the marku-ruithed up again to 1.15 , closing at 1.14 , inet loss of GV4c. May sold between 1.73 am$-

1.S5. . closing lOe net higher lit 185. Sep-tember , which sold early at 93c 7-Sc , turnbled to 8Sc and closed worth 904c.

Trading In corn was moderate. Fluctua-tlons followed wheat on a small scale. Thimarket opened lower, rallied to yesterday1close and eased off. Dually getting undeithe opening. Country offerings were largeChicago received 1.1G6 cars. Seaboard re-celpts were 1,000,000 bu. When whenplumped near the close , corn became weakJuly touching 35c , reacting slightly on cov-ering. . July opened at .IBfl.lOVlc. comparecwith 367-8 373-8 yesterday , declined to 33-

innd closed at lV 5fl 3-Sc lower at 3358c.The oats market shaped Its course aftc

wheat and corn. A bulge followed the open-Ing weakness , but free Helling by July longahelped by the break In wheat , caused i

lump near the close. Favorable weathc-Jiecked< buying. Local receipts were 6-

6cars. . July opened %c lower at 27Vii27.lcrallied to 23c nnd sold off to 27 1-8C at tilclose , a net loss of V tf-Rc. '

No life on thu buying Hide of the markecould be infused Into provisions. The hoireceipts continue too heavy-and spcculatloitoo stagnant for any considerable sympath ;

with grain. The western hog receipts tothe day were 75,000 head , against 66,000 heuilast year. Liverpool quoted a dull markofor meats , and lard 3d lower. Closing priceshowed net losses of 15c In July pork'nnfl 3'@ 5c In lard ; ribs unchanged.

Estimated receipts for tomorrow : Wheal240 cars ; corn , 480 cars ; oats , 235 curs ; hogs40,000 head.

? points the markets as u whole were Infair shape" , hogs showing a considerableaelvanco in sirlce.

CATTLE There were cattle enough andto spare on sale today , 220 freh loadshe-Ing reported In the yards , us against 125

yesterday , 216 a week UK" , and 138 twoweeks UL'O. Almost all the cattle herewere corn-tod steers , shipped In for beefand there were alt kinds , good , bad anet-Indifferent. . A considerable number of thecattle was made u ) of heavy ami more orless coarse branded westerns.

The buying demand scorned to be good ,

that Is there were plenty of buyers ridingthe yards , beith for local packers and forshipping account , but they all wanted thecattle lower , so that the trade as n wholewas late in opening and slow when it didoucn.-

As.a, general thing this market was 5Jt

lOc lower, the decline , as might be Imagined ,

being the most pronounced In the courseand heavy cattle , whilu-lmndy Ijttle nativeswcro the least affected. -

Considering the total number of cattlehere the offerings of butchers' stock wareextremely light , buyers reporting less thana dozen loads of cows anu heifers on Eule.The demand was of about the Usual pro-portions

¬

and the market.'tn' consequence olthe light offerings , very firm ,

The stacker and feeder market did notshow nny material change , the offeringsmeeting with fair sale at just about steadynrlces. Rearesentattve' ' sales :

SHEEP There were thirty loads reportedIn the yards today , the largest run , except-ing

¬

only yesterday , slnco April 28. The re-ceipts

¬

consisted almost entirety of wooled-lambH with only hero and there u load of-sheep. . The market on mutton sheep wasactive1 , the demand being good and pricessttong. Everything of that descriptionoffered met with prompt sale.

The Iamb trade was slow. In the firstplace the most of the lambs did not nrrlvtiuntil late so that the morning was well ltd-vanceel

-before the arrivals worn ready to-

show. . Another feature that contributed tothe slowness of the trade was the fact thatHellers were generally asking more moneywhllo buyers ncemeil to feel that lambshave been selling too high here In com-parison

¬

with other markets and that toeven tilings up today's market should be-

no moro than steady. Representativesales :
