PORK TWENTY-ONE DOLLARS. The May Option Again Gees Upward With a Rush, LARD AND SHORT RIBS BOOMING Furious Deals All Around in the Hog Product—-Wheat Barely Steady ~Corn Active at Better Pri CHICAGO PROD! Cricaco, Mareh 4.—(Special the BEE. | —May pork touched $21.00 to-day. The attempt to discara it and not trade at all in it was a failure, For along while it held at 10,00, but the pressure becoming unen- durable to some of the shorts they tried to buy and it advanced $1.50 per barrel in tve minutes. The wonderment over the victims of the squecze is increasing. The weight of the cossip is certainly that Sid Kent, the mill- fonaire operator, 1s the biggest short both in pork and ribs, He was a big short last year when the Grand Trunk crowd tried to run their pork corner, but he made so much pork that he swamped the clique that tried to manipulate the market. ‘Ihis year it is said hehas azain sold the mar enormously, and that the whole crowd of rich speculators who arc intercsted in the Chicago Packing and Provision company have not only sold out the product of their Chicagoand St. Louis Nouses, but have also sold largely short, The crowd includes some big names. C. J. Singer and Charley Wright, two of the ricl estand best known scalpers of the provision Pit, are also said to be sufferers from short- ing short ribs and lard. ‘Lhere was as much excitement in lard and ribs this morning a3 there has been in the pork erowd, which, under the lead of Jones and Ream and Bloom, yesterday plunged into the short rib erowd anil began “leading up on thie theory that there was & de: tainly as there was in pork. excitedly buying this morni ribs, which were selling yes were tp to $5.65 to-day, an advat 0 8500 per batrel in pork. between lard and rib stock of the last named became an quantity on the 1st day of March. = Lurd and Tibs can be manufactus @ the year round, through cold w Iull Sun- days and week aays. n pork now does not make any more o it but the adyance in ribs and lard is an itive to its manufacture, It 1s only a question of hogs and the cnpnrll{ of the packing houses at the ptock yards and in the country. Itis barely nssible that when the furore to buy lard and rbn is at its height the entire load will be dumped by the present holders. That would smash the market, so that there is likely to be more uncertainty and excitement, and lard nd ribs advance, than there was even dur- ni the progress of pork from §15.00 up to §21,00. Until late wheat was barely steady at [ reucuun from the best price reached in the nt rally, A httle business was worked by jocal shippers, but as arule the diiference tween tho views of the buyers and sellers has widened instead of narrowed. —Public markei cables were steady, but the tenor of rivate advices were discouraging in the pain. New York had little new business uz geport. ‘Theclearings were light, and s erders from Europe_were reported as Belng uite numerous, The returns of the wrain iuwcmunl for the week show that up to to- ay the western points receipts were 156,000 bushels less than the corresponding od last week, and the shipments 362,000 ushels more, while the eastern points re- ceipts are 109, hels more than last week, and the shipments 638,000 bushels more, May wheat, which was sold a8 high as 79%¢ right after the opening, settled to 783¢c, but closed steady at 1 o'clock at Te, g at S0c. Thé bonrse of corn was inlnenced to. some extent by the boom in’ provisions, and there wag an improvement in prices and rather more than average activity in trade. On the afternoon board the up- 1t in provisions was imparted to wheat and corn in a marked degree, and the siiort session was one of unusual ac- tlvlzv. May wheat went to 7903¢c, closing at . Corn opened at 39%c for Mug and anced to 40'sc. Pork apain sold at Testing at $20.90. - May lard closed at and ribs at $8.5%3. CHICAGO LIVE STOCK.

There were rumors of im- portant developments to follow Garrett's din- nergiven last night to several trunk line presidents, but nothing of consequence was made public, Forelgners sold St. Paul and traders broke Union Pacltic on the passage of the resolution to investigate Union Pacific sccounts. The market held very steady after quoted as i would beg.n the adjournment of congress, with trading very light. Sales to noon were 170,000 shares, Money was bid up to 7 per cent 'n the after- noon, and the bears seized the opportunity to raid prices. A break of about 1 per cent was precipitated, Comstock led the selling move- ment, but it was noticed thatthe drop brought out no long stock. Prices were forced down by the shorts, and the bulls predicted a sharp rally on the shorts to-morrow, Just before the close money was offered at 4 per cent and the list rallied, elosing at a fraction of an ad- vance from the lowest prices of the day, The total sales were about 225,000 shares.
