Tlie Blcgtst TToekly Decrease In tlm Visible Fupp y of Wheat Ever Reported Prices Recover Quickly From tho Decline to CIosd Lower Than Saturday. CIHCAGO A surprise was In store for tho speculators to-day the biggest weokly de crease ever reported in the record or the visible supply of wheat. It causod a sharp recovery from a general de cline" in prices, caused by the sud den ceneral Improvement in the weathpr. Nevertheless compared with Saturdav's closing, everything on the list is lower this evenine w heat, Ji corn, lJgC; oats Jfc; pork, 2c Mnv corn Is nominal and shows a ueclino of 10c. Tho Signal Service map was the first thing that attracted the attention of operators. It showed that the weather everywhere was 'splendid for the crops and tor farming oper ations. There were only two points west of Chicaco from where rainfall was reported and the barometer indicated a continuance or these conditions. Values were still further demoralized by a drop of jld reported in .Liverpool and a sharp down turn in domestic markets. Longwheat was freelyliqnidated. The bears, who have been held in check by the bnd weather, sold short freely and there was a gradual drop of IJc from the closing figure orSatnrday. Pardridge was not doing much. Thcro was some good buyini bv those who put out short linos on tho recent bulge and wero inclined to take profits. Purchases by Logan, Schwartz Duneannd Milmine Rodman were Inrjolv covering short sales made Friday and Satur day. The visible supply was to show a good deciease ofanywhere lrom 1,500,000 to 2,000,000 bushels, but tho report of tho lakes was last in, and when that was posted, showing a decrease ot nearlv4,000,000 bushels and an uggregato decrease ot 4,504 000 bushels, tho tnaiket took a sudden Jump orjc. But the advance was met with news ot big Indian shipments 2,203,000 bushels and a nimoi that the woi Id's ship ments to Europe weie over 8.000,000 bushels. The opening wns about ic lower than Saturday's closin", rniert w eak nnd declined JJcmoie, then rallied ljc, and again eased off Jfc at the close. Corn was weak and lower on .tho flno weather, the maikedimpiovement in the cradinc. tho free realizing and short splllnsr. The May de.il looked to be on the point of collapse, the short interest was apnai ently largely eliminated last week and there was not much wanted to-day, whllo tho realizing bv the longs was heavy. There was con siderable tallcoi large settlements by shorts oil private terms. Initial trades wero at i2c decline lrom Saturday's close, and a fuitncr weakening ot JsJic set In; prices then advancing 1K'Kci easing off later Jc Oats were tratleu in lalrly, and an unset tled teeling prevailed. The market onened weaker and lc lower and declined "4c more In sympathy with wheat and corn, but when tbey ndvanced and tho visible supply statement came Inafirmer feollng developed and prices advanced Jle. The close was stcadv. Notwithstanding fltmness in live hogs at the stock 3ards, piovislons opened 2J5c lower than Saturday's final figures on re ports of fine weatlier; the offerings of pork for September delivery by a prominent packing institntlon drove the market down sovoial points, but laid and ribs scarcely par ticipated in tho break. Grain was also a strong elemont In producing weakness. When wheat advanced on the visible supply figures, piovislons boomed in sympathy, the local crowd who had bought earlv rush ing to coi. er. This was followed by a slight reaction, tho mai ket clo sing steady forport, film lor lard and strong lor ribs. Lake rates were eay at lc for wheat and life for corn to Buffalo. The estimated receipts for to-morrow are: 160 cars wheat, 250 cars corn, 250 cars oats and 21,000 hogs.

Own ers are firm and buyers cautious. Specula tion cuts a small-, figure. Purchases are almost entirely for Immediate improvement or permanent investment. The trade in single lots is as good as could be expected with rain about every other day. This must be accepted as proof that home-seekers are interested in small prop erties. That lots are in good demand and selling satisfactorily is further shown by the number ot new subdivisions coming into the market. The necessity of reinforc ing the supply of lots at frequent intervals reflects a healthy movement in this branch of the market. Buildings and Valors. In the endeavor to understand the true condition of real estate, the immense num ber of buildings under way should not be overlooked. Stores, dwellings and flats are going up in all parts of the city and sur rounding districts. There is a great deal of significance in this. It shows not alone that purchases of ground are for use, but also that buyers have confidence in the future. People do not build with a pros pect of disaster before them. As indicated, owners know full well the value of their holdings, and as a rule, re ject all efforts to secure concessions. The present state of the market "tould seem to warrant a slight shading of valnes, but it is a fact w ell known to dealers that there is practically no accommodation in terms be tween buyers and sellers. The former must yield or abandon the quest This statement is uuuiiruicu uy uauy CAperieucc. Yesterday's BnildZncr Permits. Builders were active yesterday.

Trading nt the Stock Excbnngo yesterday was Ilght-waisted. There were nocenters of intei est. Goods wanted were scarce, and for those offered thero were few orders. The opposing forces worked on diverging lines all day. The business transacted was generally at the expense of values. As compared with Saturday's prices nearly everything was lower, but losses were confined to fractions. Philadelphia Gas and Luster were tho weak est features.

The Financiers Still Hnrplng on Ilia 'Abun dance of Idle Fnnda. Alight demand, abundance of funds and a fair counter business were tha features of tho local money market yesterday. The weather was ofa kind to repress enthusiasm and encourage tho croakers. Clearings wero $3,225,461 03. and balances $672,123 20. Bank statements show that the local situation is better than generally represented. Tho amount of idle money Is not alarming. Reports from over 20 cities the past week agree 1 in the statement that money was easy. A Tew reported slight improvement. A New York authority says: "As illustrat ing the unprecedented accumulations of Idle lunds we may state that lnre blocks of Govonnent bonds have been bought by In vestors, und ono lot ot $400,000 went to Bos ton yesterday. A prominent international banking house bouaht during tho week a block of $l,OJ0,00J of Governments for ac count In London. While so far as known. none of the other banks or trust companies have. Imitated tho example of tho Union Trust Company In relusing to allow further navments of any interest on deposits, thn question ofa reduction of interest from the present average rato of 2 per cout is being discussed."

New York, May 23. Thq, stock market to day was rather active in tho forenoon, but quieted down later, nnd with the continua tion of tho demand from tho shorts to cover prices wero advanced all along the line. In the making of this result, however, an in creased buying by commission houses and some aid from tho foreigners contributed not a little, though the long buying was still rather cautious. The size of the short interest, however, was evi dently too unwieldy, nnd the reduction resulted in materially bettor pticcs all along the line. Tho bulls claim that the damage by the floods in a portion of the country, together with the actions by the Northern Pacific and Atchison com panies, has been fully discounted, and that these influences have had their full effect is seen in tho desire to cover by the loading bears. The traders are Inclined to rely more upon the attitude of the foreigners, and this fact belnir ranced this morning on the long side, there was some buying for the long account by that class 01 operators. The weak holders of stocks have been entirely shaken out Tho Grangers were the'leading prominent stocks to-day, and Atchison, St. Paul, Bur'lngtonsand Rock Island gavo tono to the market, the last two showing mater ial gains, while n decline in Erie preferred was followed by a full recovery. Among the specialties there were sharp upward movements in the Susquehannn and West ern stocks and, tho Duluth, South Shore and Atlantic stocks, Susquehanna and Western preferred rising 3 per cent There wns moro strength and activity lu the Coalers and In dustrials In tho afternoon, but late in the dav the bears made another victous'drlVe at Northern Pacific preferred and depressed its prico fiom 544 ' " but while tho whole list was affected by suchadiopthe greater portion of tne early gains were re tained and the final changes show a number of material advances. While the close was rather henvv, prices in most stocks wero fractionally higher than thoao of lust even in'. Railroad bonds were again in urgent de mand and the transactinnsi-wero unusually large, amounting to $2,863,000. Except Rich mond and West Point issues no other marked gains were seen. Tho total sales of stocks were 307,501 shares. including: -iicuison, -z,iv.t; unicago ua, 15 635; Delaware, Lackawanna and Western, 3,320: Eric, 10,278: Manhattan. 6 190; Missouri Pacific, 4,56'.): Northwestern, 4,123: Northern Pacific, preferred, 26.510; Reading, 22,200; Richmond and West Point. 3,405; St Paul, 31.110; St raui ana umuua, o,usu; union ra ciflc, 17.C00.

Thero is little donbt that prices will be lower all along the line of dairy products before the wook is out Poultry and eggs aro in short supply and very firm at prices quoted. Old potatoes of good, quality aro scarce and new potatoes are lower. Cold weather nnd floods in tho Southwest of lato havo proved advene to garden stuff, and as a result receipts here havo declined. Strawberries should be at their best at this time, nnd in ordinary sea sons are nt their best in thn latter half of May. This season, however, is an exception to the rule, helm: fully three weeks behind time. There havo been very few choice berries on tho market so far, and the kind offered Is slow sale.

DON'T LIKE PAEXHTJBSl'S METHODS. Presbyterian Divines Say They Are Not in Accord ITIth. Bible Teachings. The regular Monday meetfiiR of Presby terian ministers at the First Church yester day was rather lively. Itev. George N. Johnstop. in speaking on the question, "Is a pastor justified in secretly visiting haunts of vice with a view to expose them?" took the ground that Dr.Parkhurjt,of New York, had practiced deception in direct violation of Bible teachings. He also held that it was to redeem the fallen. "Should officials accept donations from persons engaged in sinful traffic?" was decided negatively, altho: gh it was held by Rev. L. II. Lorn, that to accept such contributions was merely taking from Satan what did not belong to him and returning it to its rightful owner. It was also agreed that it was proper for ministers to accept lees for performing mar riage ceremonies. Methodist Episcopal ministers favorably considered a proposition to establish an Italian mission in this city. A special meeting of "the Monongahcla Presbytery of United Presbyterian Church was held and granted the application of Rev. T. "W. Young, pastor of Jefferson Church, tor the dissolution of his pastoral relations with the United Presbyterian Church. Jlr. Young has decided to accept a can irom a .rresoyierian cnurcn.
