Under an avalanche of commission -house selling, which set in shortly after the opening, the wheat market -went to pieces, extreme weakness prevailing, the great er part of the day. The opening 5n May was lc higher to 2&c lower at $1.01 to $1.03&. July was unchanged to c lower at 06ttc 10 96C Around $L02 the May option held steady for a time on fair commission-house" demand, but there was & great difficulty ex perienced In -filling selling order as the gen eral Inclination was to eelL Armour, the leading long, had May for sale. The Impres sion prevailed among the traders that he had practically closed out his deal In May wheat. "With the big -operator out of the market for this delivery. 'smaller holders became -urgent sellers. Commiirton houses also Joined in the movement. Tor a time It looked as If there was no bottom to the slough into which the market bad fallen. From around $1.02. May dropped suddenly to 995ic, a loss of precisely 4 cents from the high point of the day. July wheat went down to 939ic, or 3&c below the top figure. There was some buying of July by the big trader who had apparently Just closed out his May line. Shorts also bought moderately, the result being a partial recovery in prices. The close was fairly steady at the decline, with May at $1.02. July closed at 04tf94c The unsettled weather and the breaking up of the country roads that will follow caused considerable commission-house buying of corn early in the session and the market was firm In view of the weakness In wheat. 3 lay closed about unchanged at 56c. Oats followed the trend of other markets. closed at 4444c. A sensational break occurred in pork under liberal liquidation. Heavy celling by packers and a lack of support caused a loss of $1.60 in the price of May pork. The weakness in pork spread to lard and ribs, but these prod ucts showed only moderate declines. Trading was active and the volume oS business was large. Liberal receipts of hogs and lower prices at the yards were factors in closing tho heavy selling orders. There was a good com. mission-house demand on the decline and a fair recovery was made. The close on May pork was 75c lower. May lard closed 10c lowrr and ribs werodown 15c The leading futures ranged as follows: "WHEAT. Open. High. Low. Close.

That market is still governed large ly by receipts from Portland, Heretofore shipments have been moderate aad have held the market steady, but the Oregon will proba bly take out 10.000 sacks, which may have an adverse effect on prices. About 40,000 sacks of potatoes have been accumulated here for shipment to San Francisco. The floods In the Sacramento Valley will not have much effect. on the California market, as most of the rivers are stored on the San Joaquin.

Butter, Eggs, Poultry, Ktc. The weakness that, has been apparent in the butter market for some time past resulted in a decline to 30 cents flat yesterday by all the local creameries that had not previously reduced their prices. Butter tat declined In proportion. Valley butter Is In full supply on Front street and moving slowly at 279 30c Eggs are weak at 30 cents and slow sale. Shipments to the Sound will probably be checked by heavy receipts at Seattle and Tacoma from San Francisco, though It is probable that much of the 600 case lot taken up on the Queen will pwe to have been ruined by the Are on that steamer. No poultry was received yesterday. The prospects are for a good market this week. BUTTER Sweet cream butter, 30c per pound; fancy creamery, 27930c; choice cream ery. 25c: dairy and store, nominal.

STOCK MARKET IS RIGID PRICES CANNOT BE MOVED EITHER UP OR DOWN. Dullest Day Since the Opening of the Year-Railroad Reports Are Unfavorable. NEW YORK. Feb. 29. The feeble waver ing of prices- in ' today's stock market repre sented nothing more than the attempts of a few small room traders to find a movable spot in the market for either an. upward or a downward course. The range of the day's extreme movement was at an average of con siderably less than a point, and the extreme from Saturday's level was no more than a small fraction. The aggregate sales for the day were 171, 900 s hares. There was a day's record of lees than 160,000 shares in August of last year. The lowest for the current year until today was touched February 15. when 173,000 shares were sold. Those who make a pro fession of stock exchange dealings, either as traders or as commission brokers, look with apprehension at the normal period of dull ness in midsummer with this unpromising outlook. The market proves equally rigid against attempts to move it In either direction. Railroad reports for the day were generally unfavorable, with the notable exception of Union Pacific, which was able to show a re duction of expenses to help out the Increased gross. The stock got no benefit from it until the pressure upon Brie and the general list was relaxed. The break In the London cop per market hurt Amalgamated Copper In the local market, but it recovered. The dread of a Northern Securities decision was plainly an Influence In the market, but the postpone ment, with another period of suspension for the market, provoked no animation in the trade. Prices hardened appreciably in the afternoon. The belief is thus engendered that stocks are in strong hands, but it Is equally an article of faith that those hands are full, or at least that their owners are unwilling to take on more at present. United States Steel preferred was benefited by re ports of a large purchase of pig Iron by the corporation. The closing was very firm, but Intensely dull. Bonds became Irregular after early heavi ness. An advance in. United States Steel second fives helped the bond list. Total sales par value J1.31S.000. United States old 4s advanced per ctnt on call.
