Wheat, Corn, Oats and Provisions Kiso and ' Fall Tosetlier Cereals Opeu Strode and ITJghcr, Suffer Itcaction and Then More Than Recover Their .Losses. CHICAGO The markets on the Board of Trade to-day w ere in unusually close and ac tivo sjmpathy. The cereals all opened strong and higher, but quickly -weakened and declined. When the bottom was reached sentiment changed awl there was a smart rally, the close being near tho highest prices of the day. The movement In provis ions followed tho sui 110 course, though the opening prices were some hat lower. There was a more active trade in whe.it than j esterdav, but the volume of busiuess was still moderate. The market opened stronger and JSJjC higher under the Influ ences of the general favorable "tone of European market advices. One dispatch, noting damage to the growing ctods, small stores and genoral uneasiness In money matters, had a depressing effect, and under free selling by the bears prices declined with some fluctuations US to the lowest point of the day, then, under nn active de mand by tho shorts, reacted to nnd beyond the opening price. July closed Jc higher than yesterday; June, Jc higher, and August l'e higher. Trading was largely local, but there was some on foreign and Eastern accounts. Some long wheat, it was claimed, was un loaded, but local traders, no doubt, oversold themselves, and their covering, together with good buying on the part of some of the. heavy bear traders, resulted In the recovery from bottom lirlccs. Earlvnews was mostlv bullish. The Cincinnati 'JPrice Current gave a bullish summary of crop conditions. Tho foreign news indicated a "scarcity of grain abroad, and tho Bank of England discount- rate was reuueeu. Corn -was rather strong at the outset. It made a rather sharp break and thi'n rose to the highest price of tho season. The open ing stiength was due to tho fact that re ceipts -b ere smaller than anticipated, and that the JVicc Current reported the condition backward and irregular. Tho break was due to the decline in wheat, and the later ad vance was due to estimated light receipts for to-morrow, to the good shipping demand and to the buying by the frightened shorts. J til v opened a"t 5bjj6c, sold ofl to 55c and rallied to 57Jc. Oats were not active and followed corn on the fluctuations. Provisions opened -weak, because1 of the heavy receipts of hogs, and made further declines early -with corn, but when that cereal rallied provisions followed at a dis tance and closed about at the same prices as on j esterday. Tholeadlng futures ranged as follows, as corrected by John M.

Competent Judges Take., a Hopeful View, of the Situation. PITTSBURG DOING YERI WELL. Kealty Picking Up in the Oakland District as Well as Elsewhere. SPECULATION AND BUSINESS GOSSIP Real estate Is brightening up In the Oak land district as well as elsewhere, and several handsome improvements are booked for this season. Reed B. Coyle & Co. have sold 50x120 feet on Boquet street to Mr. C. F. Haller, who will soon begin the erection thereon of a fine brick residence. Tho same firm sold tho adjoining lot to Mr. G. W. Corns, the Liberty street commission merchant, who will also build a handsome residence. 6overaI other properties In the same locality have recently changed hands and will bo improved. Prices for lots out here range from $65 to $110 a foot front. Joseph Grimm lias purchased the Mc Knight property on Carson street, South- ide, consisting of a lot 25x100 and a brick dwelling, for $3,500. Business In Good Sliape. Competent authorities, while keenly alive to tho exigencies of the business situation growing out of foreign complications, are ' disposed to a hopoful view of the prospect at home, and maintain that there Is no oc casion for gloomy anticipations. Pittsburg, In the face of many drawbacks, Is enjoying a degree of prosperity unsurpassed in any period of her histoiy, with tho single ex ception of 1890. This fact, which is capable of demonstration, bristles with encourage ment. One of tho authorities above referred to emphasizes and elaborates in a cheerful vein. There Is very littlo wild-cat, incon siderate manufacturing; there is no increase Inutile growth of failures; liabilities are be ing kept within moderate limits. jBusiness men are not rushing Into obligations which they cannot meet. The small shops of the country are running about full time. The manufacturing establishments throughout the South, from tho cotton goods mills to the blast furnaces, have been making a good record, and there Is very little accumulation of goods or stocks, and, so far as is known, with a satisfactory outlook for the rest or tho year. Railroad earnings on 150 roads for the montlfof April foot up 38,742,249 tons, an increase of 1,752,780 tons over April last year, being an Increase of 4Jf per cent. This, in itselt, Is a good showing. Manufacturers throughout tli e-country are generally profit ably employed. Tho manufacturers of raw material are also doing a good business. In building operations there is not, yer- 1IOII9, 118 illUUU UUUI III US 1USI C-U, JJUIUUU laily in house building. Hardware manu facturers are cniovinir an exceDtional activ ity. Textile goods manufacturers are, throughout New England, also better em ployed than they have been for sometime. The importation of certain lines of manu factured products has been decreased, and the industries engaged in the production of these goods on this sido find mora abundant employment. Real estato in cities and towns Is holding its ownand here and there ad vanced In value. Building and loan associa tions are prospering in all sections of the country, through the steady employment of artisan membership. Important, If True. According to offlco rumor a prominent banker is negotiating the purchase of tho Central Hotel block. While this may bo an old story In a new garb, there is nothing im probable in it, since it Is well known that within a year offers havo been mado for the property by the local hotel syndicate and represent" tives of a Now York in surance company. Business News and Gossip. Lots are selling rapidly in all the subdi visions in and about the city. The Arbuckle property, ,on Seventh ave nue, is now on the market. This is a good location for business. The talk about the July dividend of the Sugar Trust seems to havo suddenly let up, and traders arc not so confident about it as they were a while -ago. It is now said that tho $8,500,000 of Reading Terminal 5 per cent bands will not be offered to the public this month, as was expected, but will be deferred until next fall. Ophelia street, running from Forbes to namle is being graded to bring into mar ket the Forbesavenueplanof lots recently laid out by Black & Baird. Corpo-ations are now compelled to pay taxes in New Jersey. Wanted A few good, active bulls to stir up things on. the Pittsburg Stock Ex change The story concerning the purchase of the Mobile and Ohio by the Jlackey syndicate, is denied on the very best authority. .Henry M. Long sold 100 shares of Manches ter Traction stock at 3 and 87 Pleasant Valley at 2414. For Pittsburg Junction Railroad .first mortgage 6's, 116 was bid, and for Citizens' Traction 5's, 108 was bid and 106 asked. The presidents of the various gas com panies m Brooklyn have decided to reduce the price of gas temporarily from $1 50 per 1,000 cubic feet to $1 25. A dividend on Chicago Gas Company stock is regarded as probable next month. Pittsburg banks will give the Saturday half-holiday law a trial. This conclusion was reached at a meeting of the Clearing House Association yesterday. It will begin June 15 and. continue until September 15. Alleghcnv Valley income 7's sold in Phila delphia at 20, and income 7-30's at 110. The Bank of England "reserve vesterday was between 17,000,000 and X18,000',000. Tho bank rednced the discount rato lrom 5 to 4. There was somo quiet talk of street rail way consolidation yesterday afternoon, in which the-Duquesne and Manchester lines were the central figures, bnt nothing in the shape of facts could be got at.

Bankers Keport Improvement in Calls for Loans Tho Western Situation. Local monetary affairs were a little more active yesterday than has been tho rule of late, due to a better borrowing demand. De positing wiis brisk and checking fair. Dis count rates wero easy at 55 for short dates and 67 for long. Depositors and others having claims to favor were accom modated at thn inside figure. Currency wns in good supply, but there was no pressure for exchange. Bank clearings were $2,048, 083 68 and balances $455,623 03. It lias been, a source of great wonder, re marks Watt Street .l&ws, that the New York City banks have hot put any check upon tho export of gold by advancing tho rate for money. The fact is that the money sent to the West in the fall bas been very slow in returning, simply because there has been no special call for it. Whenever tho demand was made tho Western cities have been per fectly able to respond, and, while tho rate of exchange on New York at Chicago has been 75 to SO cents premium per $1,000, tho Chicago banks have still had money to lend. The in ereaso in tho number of reserve cities in tlio West has taken from the New Yolk banks 11 considerable sum which was left on deposit, and it has strengthened instead of weakened their position, because the demands upon them have been more and more through other reserve cities. Secretary Foster met a large number of bankers at the Xow York sub-Treasury yes terdav morning to discuss the extension of tho 4X per cent bonds. After discussion, Mr. Seflgman was called to tho chair and the following resolution unanimously adopted: Ecsolvcd, That this meeting, composcil of rep resentatives or banks, trust companies and bank ers of New York, hereby eipi-esses to the Secretary Its unanimous opinion that in 1 lew of tlic necessity of an increase of circulating notes for inoi ementof abundant coming crops or every variety, it Is to the interest of the country to extend the maturing 4 per cent bonds at the rate of 2 per cent Interest, payable at the pleasure of the Government, and that a lower rate of Interest would tend to contract the currency at a time inconvenient to all business interests.

A HESITATING MARKET, "WITH NO IM PORTANT PRICE CHANGES. Luster Boomed a Little by Insiders Street Rail way Friction Intimidates Investors Natural Gassers Hold Advanced Ground Electric Weak and Almost Ont of . Sight. The feature If foaturclt may bo called of the local stock maTket yesterday was a boomlet in Luster mining stock, which ad vanced from 13 at the opening to 14 at the close on light trading. Some of tho insiders, who are about the only buyers, gave'out that the prospects of a big thing are steadily improving. Machinery for the mill is on the ground, and operations will begin in a short time perhaps. Birmingham Traction was the only live stock in this section of the list. It sold at a slight concession. Duqucsne was also weaker. Manchester added something to its credit. There is so much friction between the different SystetttS'that not much activity need be expected until it Is removed. It wrs stated that the Manchester line would be ready for business sometime next month. While investors are cautious, they have un bounded confidence In the future of these properties, and in the ultimate value of the stocks. There were no material changes In the natural gas list. Electric was weaker, fin ishing a good fraction under the opening. Boston reported about the same condition. It .was said by brokers having Eabtern ad vices that stock was, being surrendered so fast as to make it probable that the success of tho reorganization plan would bo an nounced at the next meeting. There whs littlo in other parts of the list to deserve attention. A sale of M. and M. Bank stock served to break the monotony that has prevailed in this class of securities for a long time. Fred Rinehartr was the buvcr. As a general thing Pittsburg stocks are in good shape. Margined holdings are unim portant. Nearly all arc paid for. This ac counts for the indifference about selling holders don't have to. They can afford to bide their time. It is stated that thebbject of the increase of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad is to acquire and provide the means to pay for the fee of the Kentucky Central Railroad Company, cancelling its present existing stock, of which the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company is now a largo share holder, and to provide means for the in tended purchase or tho Louisvillo and Nash ville Railroad Company's proportion of the proposed increase of the stock of the Nash ville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railway, of which tho Louisville and Nashville is a ma jority stockholder. If is officially stated that the $5,000,000 of new stock is more than onough to pay for the Kentucky Central and the scrip dividend of Nashville and Chatta nooga. The distribution of the Pennsylvania Rail road dividend is now well under way, and there is reason to believe that a considerable proportion ol it will be taken In stock, al though the shares now command but a small piemium on the Stock Exchange. Foreign selling has been looked for In view of tno great financial distuibances abroad, but up to this time the sales for English account have been very moderate indeed, amount ing to only a few thousand shares. Outside advices were somewhat more as suring. New York was slow an,d dull, but Iractionally better. London was a triflo stronger, but unsottled. The panic nt Buenos Ayres was said to be abating. The steamer Xormandie took $1,850,000 gold from New York. Total shipments this week, $4, 350,000.

STOCKS AND BONDS. BOCK ISLAND AND OTHER CORN ROAD . STOCKS AWAY DOWN. The Cut In the ROck Island Dividend Causes the Break Tlie General List Soon Re covers Prom the Shock Sugar and a Few Specialties Strong. NewTork, Juno 4. As was generally ex pected after the announcement that "the Rock Island Railroad had reduced its rate of dividend last evening.that fact was the great subject of interest this morning, and its depressing effects were snoti that 'the im provement in the foreign, situation, ns indi cated by the reduction in its minimum rato of discount by tho Bank of England from 5 Jo 4 per cent, counted almost for naught. The influence or tho latter, however, as serted itselr in the stubborn strength with which the downward movement In the corn roads wa3 resisted by the remainder of the list, and when It became evident that good buying orders were in the market, not the least important apparently liadtheir origin on tho other side ot the ocean. Abetter temper marked tho speculation In the afternoon, and comparative dullness took the place of the feverish activity pre vailing during most of the forenoon. The action of the Bank of England was hailed ns proof that tho necessity for tne accumula tion of gold had now ceased, and, notwith standing the fact that further orders of gold for export were made to-day, nnd tho amount for the week promises to run up to a large figure, the 'sentiment that the gold exports arenearingthelrendgained strength and was again no mean factor in the resist ance to tlie downward tendency engendered by the weakness in tho corn-carrying roads. The general opinion Is now that tho situa tion, both at home and abroad, will steadily improve, and as soon as tho effects of the re duction in the dividend on Rock Island wears off there will be a general Improve ment in the stockmarkct. Extreme caution is still exhibited, however: and, while there was no disposition shown to throw over long stocks on the affair, a waiting attitndo is assumed, and time U evidently necessary to a restoration of confidence. To-day, outside of the corn roads, the only important movements were in Union Pacific, Sugar and a few specialties. The opening prices were not all lower, though Rock Island was down 2 per cent and the general list recovered immediately from tlie depres sion, though there was no special strenth shown outside of a few specialties, among which tho Wheeling and Lake Eries -n ere rilost prominent. The decline In Rock Island was supplemented by a material loss In Bur lington, but the influence of this wns fairly offset bj' the 4 oer cent rise In Sugar, which, was occasioned by the report that the divi dend would be 5 per cent on the1 common stock, which the denial of the Secretary had no power to check. Tho dealings were marked by no other feature, except a smart rally in the last hour in some stocks, and the market finally closed fairly activo and Ann to strong at close to the opening price for all but tho lew stocks mentioned. The final changes show only smnll losses and gains in the general list, but Rock Island Is down 5 per cent and Burlington 1, w'hiie Sugar is up2. Railroad bonds were as dull and feature less as usual, but there was a heavy tone all tho way out, and while tho material changes are few all those of Importance are losses. The amount of business done was only $585, 000. Tlie following table shows the prices of active stocks 011 the cw 1 ork Stock .Chan?R j esterdav.
