THE OMAHA DAILY BEE:.SATURDAY, MARCH 19, 1887, ANEW SET OF BULL TACTICS, The Wheat Olique Makes a General Ohange and Awaits Results, COMING UP TO CHICAGO PRICES. The Other Markets Show Advancea— Corn Goes Lower on Unfavorable Reports—Big Dealers Sell Lard and Kibs. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. CnicAco, March 18,—[Special Telegram to the Be ‘T'he wheat clique has cut its wis- dom teeth, got a new set of brokers, stopped bulldozing the May option, and is now, with agreat deal of discretion, simply standing on its line and allowing the surrounding mar- kets of the world to move up toward the plane ot Chicago values. This improvement in tactics Is so marked that there is actually A large number of men who are confident that this is an Armour deal. The clear- ances from New York—155,000 bushels—were somewhat of a disappointment, but the for- elgn markets were most encouraging. Will- fam Dunn said the cables rather indicated that Liverpool had turned, The whole world for a day or so had gone on the hypothesis that at Chieago wheat was about to collapse, and instead of doing that it had put ona healthier look than ever. At the opening Field, Lindley & Co. were liberal sellers. Milmine, Bodkin & Co. were buyers. There was for an hour active general trading at be- tween 19 Then trade suddenly dropped off. ‘The cligue houses were confi- dently predicting higher prices for the day. By 1 o'clock May wheat was down to S07cc, nolwlllmlmldlm( all the surrounding markets had shown extraordinary strength. —‘The reason was that the clique brokers had no inclination to interfere, It s {"l\ulnl) the purpose of holders w get vrices to_their old time relative standing. Wihile New York advanced this market de- d, and now it is a fact that the old time relations between prices at these two markets are restored. The June option advanced to within i4¢ of \ll? to-day, Spre ll was 2 to the disadvantag ago, Kershaw was reported a buyer at \hl- watikee, and from New York came the story that the Chicago clique had bought and were holding more wheat than was actually in store there. 'The uncomfortable feeling about trading in the May option of wheat has apparently disappeared. No commission houses are refusing orders for May wheat now nor are they demanding extraordinary marging- In corn the stock vards crowd of bulls has apparently been routed, horse. 1oot and dragoons. The Ma {;llull was down to 80%c by 1 0'clock, and the big reports of re- eeipts for the unrly partof next week promise to send the figures und Norton & ‘Worthington say they have 1,500,000 bushels of cash corn to deliver for country customers and the recelvers generally are sellers. Nat Jones, N. B Ream and Kobert Warren & Co. were free sellers of lard and ribs to-day. The sales were set down as realizing ones, On the afternoon board the markets were weaker and a shade lower, Provisions were easler.

The demand was good and the market was steady In all cases and generally strong, ‘There were many sales of handy desirable cattle at prices a shade higher. The market on the whole was fairly active and the market was in most cases as good as it wag Wednesday, though there was an absence of the excitement which has char- acterized that day’s trading, for a while lately.

NEw YoRrg, March 18.—|Special Telegram o the BEE.)—SToCKs~There was ‘a remark- able dearth of news to-day calculated to af- fect the price of stocks. ‘I'he report that the Baltimore & Ohio had been sold to the Cin- cinnatl, Dayton & Hamilton syndicate furnished the principal topie of conversation among brokers. In the absence of any well authenticated news in regard to the subject brokers were disposed to consider that about the only thing about which there was no question wes the fact that the Ballimore & Ohio road was for sale. The bears made the voint that money would certainly become fearce within the next sixty days, but it was alleged that Gould had recently put a good deal of money into railroad stocks and, as sa consequence, it was claimed that his influ- ence would be in favor of easy money. The best informed London firms assertea that the feeling in London and ob the continent was wvery bullish, and that people abroad would take at least 150,000 shares of stock if they could get them at present prices. Rallroad earnings were generally favorable and the expectation was that big earnings would be the rule until the inter-state commerce law went into effect. 'The Denver & Rio Grande earnings for the second week in March in- creased $24,500, and for the year to date the Increase was $204,000, At noon the market was steady, the sales to that hour amounting 10 98,000 shares. Business was almost entirely at a standstill during the afternoon, Hock- ing Valley broke 13§ per cent and the theory most generally held was that brokers in the interest of the management of that company were trying to unload a lot of stock. The latest London quotations in Ameriean secur- ities were lower and the sentiment' towards the close began to veer around to the bear side. It was thought that prices would have to be let off a point or two before there would be any general activity. The total sales were about 140,000 shares, GOVERNMENTS—Government bonds were Chicago & Altol do preferred. o pref oA A PR 1-—-Easy at 8 losed a1dred 1 4G4 poe &‘n e r:u.\n:M:uruvm,n PAPER=b!4@hi¢ per eent, STERLIN business at demand.

OMAHA WHOLESALE MARKETS Friday, March 18, General Produc The following prices are for round lots of proditce,as sold on the market to-tvy. — ‘the quotations on frults represent the prices at which owtside orders are filled. Butter—There has been a very noticeable falling off in the recepts of choice butter dur- ing the past week. ‘There is hardly any country butter coming in that can be graded as strietly choice. 'I'he receipts of the poorer grades are liberal and the market well sup- plied. T he llem.md is for choice butter and x»oor butter will not sell very readily and only when the petter grades cannot be ob- tained. The warm weather has a tendency to bring out the poor qualities in the butter and on that account poor butter does not sell as well now as when the weatlior is cold, An occasional package of fnm.‘i butter sells at better prices than those quoted below: Choice country, 16@17 mon, 5@10c.

T'he warm weather is lessening the demand somewhat for dressed poultry and at the same time Is incre: « the demand for live poultry. Dressed chickens are selling mostly at 10c with an occasional sale of extra stock at a little more. Turkeys and ducks have been selling at about the same price s chickens. A few small, fat turkeys have sold at 1l LIvE PovLTRY—The warm weather has created some demand for live ponlm and the demnmlw\llmmmll increase as the weather becomes warmer.
