PORK STILL MOVES UPWARDS Another Sixty-Oent Advance Over the Prico on Tuesday. HOW TRADERS WERE BITTEN, Orimination and Recrimination Abonnds in the Pit—Considerable Activity in Wheat at Higher Prices—General Quotations, CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET, CnicAGo, March 2,—(Special Telegram to the Bee.]—The provision pit opened this morning with fluctuations as wide as ever, T rst hroker who ventured to sell May pork did it at 815.40. Nobody took the risk after that until $18.60 was bid and the next one at £€10,00. Not 2,000 barrels changed hands between these figures. The interest, however, was better illustrated by the crowd that pork drew. ‘I'here were as many brokers as the pit would hold, watching, and from the public gallery there were all sorts of faces, drawn by the newspaper talk of the pork corner, all riveted on the little circle where the hog product is traded in. The stocks of provisions were made public this morning. They were fully as light as was expected, and very much smaller than a year aro. There are only 155940 barrels of pork, agAinst 283,458 a vear ago: only 82,218 tierces of lard. against 116,481 a year ago, and only 3,001 pounds of short ribs, against 9,003,000 a year ago. The price for pork 1s now so high that any fluctuation, except sensational drops, cause very little comment. A drop even of $1a barrel is not any longer considered sensational, neither is an ad- vance of that sort. ‘The talk now is chiefly of the hardships which the refusal of certain houses make to ringing up” will cause innocent operators, Where oper- ators have shorted the market the fact that they have lost their money. or that they have an enornous amount of money tied up in margins. does not gain for them any sympathy. But there are trader: large number of them, who have kept even on their books, but who, because they had of necessity to sell what they Lad bought, have been all wound up in the toils of thif deal, For instance, there are commission men and packers who sold pork at $14,00 —pork which they had--who have up now $4 n each ‘T'he result is that the packers who the product in their cel and com- mission houses who bave simply sold what they have bought of somebody else, have hundreds of thousands of dollars tied up. When Ream and Jones were ready to sell out pork they were in a bencfieent mood. y had traded so enormously in the hog produet, and things had gone so swimmingly with them, that tl lecided that they held the pork deal in their hands -were, in running the deal. ‘They sold out their pro- duct, and perhaps started the maiet on Monday at about $16.006¢16.50, and their own sales made, they wired all their friends that “the pork deal had culminate ‘That brought enormous commission orders to sell from all quarters. ‘The market took them and went right up $2.00 o barrel. Now, nat- urally enough, St. Louis, New York, cin- nati, St. Paul and other intimates who were assured that the pork deal had “culminated’” the day that Ream aund Jones changed front are in a bad way. This Is one of the causes for a great deal of the crimination and recrimination which has been indulged in over this pork deal. ‘T'he market nponed at $18.40 for need to $19.50. ded and closed S 50, & 60 mlvnnc(- over yes- more freely, nnd at § .0. 5 (a and closed at §7.121, Short ribs were weaker lllNl closed l. and closed ) ively in the l( of the session, inly in the way of 1) Ilm: out standing contracts, A shading in quotations of British consols, the large ex- port clearance from the seaboard, and the deerease in the amount on ocean passage hat frightened the shorts and made ors on the bull side more courageous. T quietness and weakness set in, but in the latter part of the session there was a spurt of activity, when prices were carried to H he highest point of the day, anc the closings were 1'5c above those of the close ot the afternoon session vesterday. ‘I'he lowest price for May was 7i%c and’ the highest 79¢, with %e the first and 7% the last quotation.

London prices were a shade better and cables stated that the disposition observed was to follow any advance which might be started on this side. One of the sensational features of the day was an advance of 5 per cent in Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western.
