THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: A WILD MARKET IN WHEAT. The Oereal For Delivery in That Month @oes Up at a Rapid Rate, LARGE OUTSIDE BUYING ORDERS Corn Opens Higher But the Tendency of Prices Incline Downward— Hogs Active and Prices Firm—Quotations, CHICAGO l"fll)nt CE MARKET. CricAao, March ™ S)»erh\l Telegram to the Brr.|—There was a wild wheat market on the Chicago board of trade to-day. The range of prices at the opening was 3¢ above yosterday’s closing, the Initial figures being on a basis of 83%c for May and June. The market displayed signs of great strength, Steam was on and the fires under the boilers ‘were evidently being fed with fresh fuel. May was the bulglest month and speculative Inquiry for property deliverable in that month sent prices jumping upward at a rapid rate. From 83%c the market advanced sharply and strongly to 84%{c, June lagging reluctantly behind and only golng ¢ higher than the opening price. After the first half hour June sold at a discount from May rang- ing from %c to 1)4c. The crowd traded in both months wildly, There was a general be- llef that June must take its natural position with relation to May, but the difference varied constantly and May so often dis- played an ungovernable propensity to forge ahead regardless of months or other markets that the scalping element becamo hopelessly bewildered. From B4c up there was free realizing of property bought ata lower range of values and several lines of wheat held by local operators were sold at a handsome profit. These sales were 80 largo in the aguregate that the market settled back under pressure, May going to #334e and June to 825%c. The decline was nearly as sharp as the advance and dealings were on a large scale both ways, ‘The quota- tions last mentioned proved to be the bottom and during the last part of the long session general and extensive buying put prices up once more, away beyond any price previ- ously touched on the bugel. The sudden in- crease in the number of outside orders could not be accounted for until it became known that a very large proportion of the bucket shops Hlmu hout the country had refuse take trad l'\r May wheat, thus debarri bucket shop traders from dealing in their istomed way in the commodity in which ‘The multiplicity of small orders from the outside gave to the market a support it has not had for months and years, and the result was an astonishing bulge. May wheat climbed rapidly to 86¢ and June to Siize. The encral publie has not taken hold " of wheat for a long time. The effect of its touch to-day was electrieal. ~ There was a heavier 1ealizing on the last bulge than on the first and the market settled back e, resting ex- cited and neryous at the adjournment of the long session, with 85 tor Mny and June quoted at 84lic.

CuicaGo, March 8,—[Special Telezram to the Bre.]—CATTL Receipis this morning were over estimated. Thegeneral demand was not strong, there being light shipping orders as usual yesterday, and in some cases values were considered 5@10c lower on common to fair cattle. In other cases the most desirable offerings were considered more saleable at fully former rates. On the whole, however, there was no quotable change In prices. ‘T'he market was certainly not active, though ® large volume of business was done.

Ono report states that at the meet- ing of the Western Union executive com- wmittee a resolution recommending she retire- ment of outstanding serip would be adopted. Reading was bulled ou the report that uego- ceial Telogram e stock market orning, with ger- tiations between the Scully-Corbin-Brice party and the Baltimore & Ohio railway com- vany were progressing for the purchase of the Keading. Cotton seed oil was rather erratle, but advanced when it was found that Armour refused to go into the rival com- pany, as reported in New Jersey Saturday. It was generally believed that as soon as Armour had secured a favorable contract for his cotton seed oil he would turn up as an advocate of an Americau company, New KEngland was rather quiet, but insiders were giving out points that it would be the next bull card. London prices were generally & shade higher and tha feeling abroad on American securities was reported to be bull- ish. At noon the market was strong at about the top prices. Sales to noon were 121,000 shares, Western Union slumped off X per cent after the meeting of the execu- tive committee, and the story was that it had been decided to issue stock for outstanding serip. It was asserted that the bull move- ment in Jersey Central was based on buying by Morgan and the old West Shore crowd. New England loomed to the front witha sharp advance just before the close, S, V. White was a large buyer and the talk by alleged insiders was that it would sell at 65 this week. Grangers were barely steady, but the buying of Northwestern was by strong peovle. The wholo market rallied just be- fore the close and the last quotations were about the best for the day. The total sales ‘were about 250,000 shares. ovERNMENTS—(Government bonds were dull but tirm.
