THE RISE IN BREADSTOFFS. BOW THE RUSSO-LURKISH WAR SENDS UP THE PRICE OF WHEAT, FLOUR AND CORN—SOME OPINIONS OF THE CAUSE OF THE ADVANCE— ARE THE POSSIBILITIES DISCOUNTED?

Money on Call Easy at 2 1-2) a 8 Per Cent. . Want STREET, Sarerpay, April 28—6 P. iu} | Tho opening of the board this morning was awalted with a good deal of anxiety, tho announcement of tho suspension of Messrs, B. N. Robinson & Co, having so immediately preceded the close of business as to leave everythizg in doubt as to what the effect upon prices was going to be, It followed that the entire army of speculators passed the might in a stato of supreme sus- pense, not knowing whether they were infantry or cavalry—atoot or aborseback. The doubt was not en- tirely dissipated until after midday, when the market fairly took the bit im its teeth and galloped out of the reach of bears and their influences. Previous to this, however, in early dealings the market snowed consid- erable sensitiveness and irregularity, the tnclina- tion being at drst downward, then apward, and thereafter for an hour or two in aj state of “quiver” that would not have dis. graced a first class aspen loaf. This state of uncor- tainty was princtpally occasioned by the closing up, “under the rule,” of the optstanding contracts with the suspended Orm, Orders to sell, as woll as orders to buy, were handed up to the chairman, Messrs. Robinson & Co, having ingeniously managea to get upon both sides of the market at the same time, thus exhibiting the counterfeit presentment of that patriotic, but usually profitiess, bird known in the strect as a “spread eagle.” This process of liquidatign extended tothe buying and selling of some 15,000 shares, of which nearly 4,000 were Delaware and Lackawanna ana 7,000 Lake Shore, the remamder being spread over the other active stocks of the list, Tho above amount, however, probably represents no more than one-quarter of the contracts outstanding, the bulk of them being settled quietly im the open market, Tho effect was secu nevertheless, for, taking the shape, as it did, of purchases (o cover shorts, the market naturally improved under tho de- mand, It helped tbe party of progress also in their work of advancing prices, while the joint Influence be- ing brought to bear was threatening enough or persua- sive enough vo convert even tho ‘vow windew”’ bears, and set them long of the market, Sull another eie- ment of strength was to bo found in the ‘bank state- ment, with 1t8 increase of $3,000,000 legal tenders, $2,500,000 deposits, and tts decrease of $1,750,000 in loans, an exhibit which reflects the return of currency to this centre, and at the same tiine promises eusy monoy for the tuture, Tho stocks chiefly benedted to-day were the coal carriers, Western Union, Lako Shore, Rock Island, Central and Hudson and Illinois Coutral, the improvement ranging from 1 to 4 per cent, This {g satisfactory enough for one day. It would be, still more so could we detect any signs of permanency in tho movement, Unhappily it exhibits all the traits of a purely stockjobbing venture, tounded upon an unduly oversold market and favored at tho motnent by extrancous causes, It is as absurd to sup: \ pose that we aro going to take a sudden Plunge into prosperity as it was to imagine that all Stock Exchango properties were empty shells. No well founded improve- ment can be other than a slow one, and {ts basis mus, bo restored confidenco and the presence of a public willing to buy and pay for such securities as are con- fessed to bo cheap and desirable, So far there is but Glight evidence of the existonce of either.
