SENSATIONAL DAY IN WREAT Violent Fluctnations Relieve the Market of Its Hide-Bound Oondition. LARGE AMOUNTS CHANGEWANDS Corn Rules Steady Up to Noon But Goes All to Pleces After That— General Cattle Market Quite Active, CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. Cr1cAGO, March 15, —(Special Telegram to the BEg)~The wheat deal on 'Change to-day was as wild and sensational as any which has preceded it, The result of the day’s trad- ing in wheat, a day of exceptionally violent fluctuations, has been to completely relieve the wheat pit of its hide bound condition. ‘There was no difficulty in the last hour’s trading to buy or sell a million bushels of May wheat. Kershaw & Co., and lrwin, Green & Co., bought largely at 79 and up to 80c, but there Is no reason to think that there 1s no longer any dangerous manipulation left in the May option, For thatgeason, perhaps, It advances easily. The bulls, as the result of the recent big operations, apparently have the bears terrorized, The market opened With bearish news on allsides. The opening trades in May were at 81l{c, and in June #0!ge. The market dragged heavily, Trad- ing In May was more general than for many days. «A popular lack of confidence in the “‘May deal” was naturally accompanied by a desire to sell little wheat for delivery in that month. The feeling that the “alleged clique' was getting tired of its load and was pre- paring to wiggle out has been growing, and speculators were emboldened thereby to enter into new contracts. May worked down le, the confidence of the bears increasing with every e drop. About 12 o'clock the offerings Increased and a big lot of wheat was pressed for sale, J'The clique is selling out,” was the word that flashed through the crowd. During the next fifteen minutes the crop could have becn bought. May wheat broke to 4'4}(0, Wwhich was 2%c under the opening and 23{c under yesterday’s last price. There were trades at 784{c, and possibly some at 783, The excnn-ment was intense and the crowd in the pit resolved itself into a howling mob. The ofticial reporter gives 787¢c as the lowest point touched. The selling out of a line of long wheat bought by an active local broker, who had loaded up with more wheat near tie tov than he could protect, was the signal for the break. 'I'ia selling by Kershaw had led *‘the crowd’ to conclude that the ‘“‘allegea clique” was tl\lnr to work off wheat, and when the insufticiently protected lot above referred to came on the market everybody ~||lv|'mw(l it was an allopathic dose of the “clioue” property. What followed may be briefly told. * Lrwin, Green & Co., Kershaw & Co, and I-Ownfi-ld & Co. bought as much of “the crop” as they could ((mwniemly Ll!l their hands on, and outside brokers, acti in their interest, bought more. It is (‘Rl! inated that the “alleged clique’” houses added from 6,000,000 to 8,000,000 bushels to the lines of wheat already on their a8 havin, been bought tor May dell “They hn‘i to take the wheat to protect the market,” was the verdict first rendered by the jury of the pit, a verdict which was modified later to “1t was one of the slickest scoops ever engineered in this market.” When the bears began trying to cover they discovered there was no wheat for sale. “I'ne market reacted as suddenly as fl had slumped and five minutes before the 1o'clock gong sounded 803 was the quota- tion, June, which had l one time com- manded %o premiun over May, dropped llm k to its former unnatural poxllfim closin, 2ic under May at 79%e, May stopping at o'clock at B0%e. The corn market ruled with remarkable steadiness up to noon to-day und then broke and went all to pieces, during the last hour of the regular session, Starting sales were at 40'¢e for May and 40%c for June. In a shorf time May sagged to 40'4c, but from 10:30 to 12 that option did not sell above 40%¢c nor below 40%c, The steady tone during this time gave #o the market the l\wnrnnee of firmnéss and in- nplm\ the bulls with some hopes of recovery. Finally the underpinning gave way and ‘when 40c was touched large amounts o¥ long corn were dumped “allin a heap” into the pit nml‘rrlm suddenly reacted to 393;c with tremendously heav) Acllingclenrnlowu‘ The market reacted to 5c at 10 o'elock. Oats ruled quiet and firm. Provisions were tirm, higher and moderately active.

CRICAGO, March 18.—[Specinl Telezram to the Bke.1—CATTLE—The advance te-day was very uneven, and while all kinds ot cattle sold 10c higher there were some sales of handy, hight and medium welght eattle which showed more advance, The general markot 'was quite active to-day aad prices were 85@ B0c higher than they were at the lowest point last week. The advance has been chiefly on light and medium cattle, though all kinds sold well to-day. Meal-fed cattle sold to-day exactly 40¢ higher than one week ago, Con- servative dealers expressed the fear to-day that the present little boom would bring a Tush of eattle to the market and senu prices down with a disastrous erash _in & few dnvn \l;o‘sv lnu stMrs. 1350 to 1500 Ibs, e d na@( 10 cnwn. bulln and nh'x‘wd l‘m 253 hulk $2.75(@8.25; slop fed ntann‘, N-M] ed and bulls, 83 2@3, airly active with fttlo alues as compared with A few fancy Leavy sold at $5.95 acking and mixed ‘mediu; at 25 75@5.90: butcher weights, $5. comuion, 85.00@5.75; light sorts 5. 50(@5,85 1 Pmna Yorkers, 5550@5 5@5,25; light, 8540550, FINANCIAL, NEw Youx, March 15.—|Svecial Telegram to the Ber.)—Stocks--The stock market held its own to-day, although a drive at It was met the bears immediately after the opening, The weak spot was Richmond Terminal, which broke 1§ per cent, making buyers for the moment rather timid, Later, however, there was a stitfening up in prices through the entire list, Louisville & Nash- ville, New England, and Western Union held remarkably steady and rallied quickly after any depression, London continued to be a buyer of stocks, taking moderate quan- tities of Lake Shore and Louisville & Nash- ville. One report credited Lake Shore earn- ings for the first half of the current month with showing an increase of over $100,000, Hocking Valley rallied a fraction and the officials of that company elaimed that the story that nterest charges had not been earned was false. About noon the whole markel improved and shorts were large buy- ers. Cammack was down town. The talk was that he was quietly buying in his short sales put out some days ago, The Balumore & Ohio deal was represented as having been practically consummated, the details having been settled by Messrs, Saxe and Garrett. It 'was considered certain that Gould was the person behind tho manipulation and brokers were generally advising customers that in #ho event of the deal eoing through the whole -uku vwld be .nnuy l-mvud. ‘Money or no variance in utonlly THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, MARCH 1 was fairly active at 4@5 per cent, and the possibility of a squeeze attracted less atten- tion than for several days. At noon the market was strong at an advance over open- ing prices. Sales to noon were 114,000 shares, About all the activity in the market unleml during the afternoon in Louisville & N ville, New England, Lake Shore, and Lac wanna, all of which advanced about 1 per cent. The whole list, however, held very strong, and buying, especially by foreign houses, was the best in many weeks. Tha market closed very strong at top prices for the day.
