d WEDNESDAY, MARCH 18, 1925 THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE ‘ MARKET NEWS Wire Markets By Associated Press ~ WHEAT PRICES SHOOT UP BUT SLUMP AGAIN Wild Reaction Follows Boost of Ten Cents a Bushel at Opening of Market Chicago, Mar. 18.—Wheat went skyrocketing today shooting straight upward ten cents a bushel at the very outset. May wheat touched $1.63 as compared with $1.53 to $1.53 at yesterday’s finish. A sharp rise at Liverpool preceded the advance here. Trading was on a tremendous scale with fluctuations correspondingly violent, with prices swinging at times one cent between trade. Almost a complete famine of offerings characterized the start, but buying orders were at flood tide and frantic bidding ensued until ten cents a bushel had been added to prices before half of the brokers in the pit could take their bearings. Then selling turned loose and wild reaction followed. Before the backward impetus was checked May wheat dropped to $1.58 % but was still five cents or more bove the closing figures of the pre- vious day. A rally of almost three cents came ‘instantly. Meanwhile Liverpool which had opened today av one-tenth to two-tenths decline, mounted to nine-tenths net gain. Highest prices of the day were reached in wheat after dispatches from Washington were received say- ing the Secretary of Agriculture had directed un immediate investigation into recent big fluctuations in prices. At today’s top figures May delivery commanded $1.64 a bushel. Some- thing of a reaction, however, ensued before business ended. The market closed unsettled at 4 to 9 cents advance compared with yesterday’s finish, last prices on! May being $1.61 3-4 to $1.62, and July $1.42 1-2 to $1.43.
