CHICAGO, May 2.-May corn soared to oöe to-lay and closed le over yesterday, at Sic. July closed l'ic hifiher. Wheat was
moderately active and linn on cables, tho i weather and in sympathy with the coarse
P.rain. July closinc; "''hC higher. July oats closed v.ith an advance of l'ic and May with a sain of lVc. July pork closed up, lard and tibs practically unchanged. In cofn the tight grip of the leading buil on the May delivery was more than ever cpparent. I'rices fluctuated violently within a ranse of 5c, but actual transactions In the pit were very .small. Phillips, who has the market cornered, refused to eil. As-lde from the manipulation small receipts of contract grade corn and a report that Argentina's exportable surplus had bcc.i reduced 50 per cent, were strcngthenlr.s factors. The manipulation was. of course, roost apparent In May, although the July delivery protlted somewhat by it and enjoyed a more general trade. May opened !( to le higher, at öcKtölc, and was bid up In Vic and Vjc Jumpa to 53c. This brought only very small offerings from scatterei scalping longs. It was reported that some large short lines had been settled i-.t the market price with Phillips In a private c( nferenee, but no authority for the insertion could be found. From 5Tc May dropped back to 53c, not from any increase in offerings, but because the bidding stopped. Later 51c was bid, and at the close short3 were offering Wc, 4c more than yesterday's close. July sold between 4c and 471s' and closed lUc higher, at 4747Vc. Receipts were 21S cars. 15 of contract grado. The weather was said to be highly favorable for the crop. To-day's high point, 5äc, was the highest since. August, lOt, when the market touched 57c. Shorts had been tendered the privilege of covering their contracts when the market was at 4Sc. Many did so. Those who did not improve their opportunity sought to buy to-day, but bid higher and higher, only to find scarcely any for sale. Phillips predicted that the price would be 3c before the end of the month. "This prediction," said he, 'is not based on tli3 fact that the short interest is in a tight box. but on the fact that the legitimate demand has reached the limit of production. For year3 the bears have kept prices unnaturally low; now the bulls are having their innings and the farmer is gcttio;; what his corn is worth." While trade in wheat was on a liberal scale, business apeared to be mostly for the professional element, who were lookingtor scalps in the way of quick profit.?. The market's undertone was firm, however, under the inlluence of steady cab!?;?, hot dry weather, under which insects thriv and in sympathy with the neighboring strength In corn and oats. From Minneapolis came the doleful word that Kansas complaints of the work of insects in the fields were more gloomy than ever. From this source was also recorded a fear that wheat will not -stool unless some wet weather Is forthcoming. There was, however, no lacking of reports of the usual optimistic character in regard to crop prospects. . July opened Ue higher, at T1' ö 7:'hC, and advanced early to 74Hc. This was followed by a reaction on protit-takir.i to 73r(i73:,1c. but bulls bought at the decline and the market again reacted to 74 f 74' ;c, ami closed firm, sic higher, at 7:;TsC. Seaboard clearances in wheat, and Hour were equal to 737.0u bu. Primary receipts aggregated only SlL'.n) bu. against r76,ooO last year. Minneapolis and Dulutn i t ported 247cars, against 215 last week and 4") a year ago. Local receipts were HI cars, one of contract grade. The oats market was active and strong. May advanced sharply because it was thought the bull crowd In corn had also cornered the supply of oats. July was more amenable to legitimate market influences and advanced on tho weather as well -is ir. sympathy with May, in the face of liberal commission-house selling at timos.
The demand for May came mostly from pit shorts, who got but little. May sold between 2v,o and -D'sc. ami closed l'ic higher, at 2c; July ranged between 2G"sC and 27c, ami closed with a gain of ?sc, at 27c. Receipts were 17 cars. The only redeeming feature of the provision market was the advance in July poiK on buying thought to bo for packers. Lard and ribs were neglected and lluctuat-d within a narrow range. July pork sold from fir. to fir.:;ji. and closed at the top. :2u; over yesterday. July lard closed 21 jc lower, at $.ü). and July ribs a shade down, at Estimated receipts to-morrow: Wheat, ;5 far?; corn, Ü7 cars; oats, 215 cars; hogs, 25,uim head.

Silver certificates were 0)c; bar silver, ül'c; Mexican dollars, 4.vc. Har silver at London closed at 27?8d an ounce. The; Atchison stocks took the leadership of the market away from the Union Pacifies yesterday in point of both strength ana activity. During most of tle day the volume of transactions in the two common stocks ran a close race, but the dcalinj.? in Atchison common and preferred easily outstripped those in the two Union Pacihc stocks. A heavy preponderance of the total transactions in the whole market centered in these stocks. There have been very eonlident predictions that tho lirst dividend on Atchison for a half year would be '2 per cent., and it is likely that a large short interest was accumulated in the stock by those who hid better information, in the expectation that Wednesday's lVi per cent, dividend would bring out heavy offerings. As a matter of fact, the offerings weic very, moderate. The character of yesterday's buying, however, could by no mean be safely attributed cither to a demand from shorts or to purely speculative manipulation. The movement was supposed to be uue to a new phase of the struggle among the granger trunk lines to secure lor themselves compensatory advantages to dlset the Hurlington deal. Oflkials of the St. Paul Railroad were quoted anonymously yesterday morning as breathing forlli threatenings of building u new line to the Pacific unless they were accorded a share in the advantages of the supposed Union Pacific absorption. This corroborates the current supposition that the great granger trunk lines leel themselves at a tactical disadvantage If they have not an assured Pacific coast outlet as well as an Kastern trunk line connection, and that all of them will sooner or later take measures to secure these advantages. The movement of prices was cited as giving evidence that the buvir.g of Atchison was for the benefit of St. Paul, and probably also of Hock Island. There was a disposition to attribute the late strength of Haltimcrre Ohio to plans lor making that road the Eastern outlet, and the late spurt in Norfolk & Western and Chesapeake Sc Ohio were supposed tJ indicate alternative possibilities. The declaration of the lirst dividend on Norfolk & Western of 1 per cent, was, however, the more plausible explanation for the strength of the last named stocks. The feverish and erratic fluctuations in Union Pacific were amply explained by the new uncertainties surrounding the present ownership cf its control. There were various rumors, l oth to the effect that the Vanderbilt ininteiests had perfected their control, and tnat the llarriman interest had secured the maintenance of their control. Kvery ii ovement in the stock and every rumor regarding the control were looked upon wit;; suspicion bv the uneasy speculators as a device to further the contest, and underlying all was their dread that when once the actual control is decided the high price will not be maintained. The stocks included in the Hurlington deal, the Erie stocks not excluded, were all notably heavy. The heavy profit-taking and weakness of the United State Steel stocks had a large sentimental influence on the whole market. New York Central was quite severely handled and lost 38 on the day. Except lor the few special points of strength the market was, on the whole, reactionary. Tho money rate was distinctly firmer, ruling at 5 per cent, early in the day, and It was said that a number of the banks were calling loans. The subtreasury figures, which include the payment for the great part of the gold exports, show a toss by the money market thus far of $5..aS.000.

The leather dealers are fairly busy, but hides continue time and prices weak. In produce there Is a fair iiiovt merit.

On Commission row the volume of business compares favorably with the corresionding period lat year. The mpply of apples ii largely reduced and iric-.s are lirm at the advance of Wednesday. Orange and lemons are both selling well at the better prices quoted. 'I he flour- market Is dull. Little Is doing as yet In the wod market.
