THE WHEAT Fif DESERTED. Ope:ators Get Sick of the Monotony and Try Other Lines. BIG DEALS |IN SHORT RIBS. Prices of Corn Sent Upward By Light Receipts—Guessing on the Course of May Wheat Indulged In— Quotations, CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. 3 vecial Telegram to the Ber.)—Tirea of waiting for wheat to move up or down, board of trade operators diverted themselves with the other pits to-day. ‘The May option of short ribs, whicn yesterda forenoon was down to S$7.57l4, with every- body anxious to sell, was up to-day to $%.10 and with the price going up o fast that tail- ers tried but dared not catch on. In lard there was not as much activity. In the corn pit the receipt of only 552 cars, where nearly 700 had been predicted, sent the price up e within a very few minutes. Wheat alone was nezlected. It opened at 80%c and was not much traded in. The whole east was cut off because of a telegraphic blockade and that has always a depressing fufluence, The interest centered largely in short ribs. May sold up to $5.20 and it looked as if everybody in the trade had sold short. At 1 o’clock they closed at $%,073¢ and May lard at$7.42 1§ Wheat didn’t vary above !5c per bu during the whole of the re ar session. 1t sold as low as 80ige for May on a sudden little spurt of selling by Lester & Co., but there appeared 10 be plenty of buyers at this figure and it went back at once to Sle. At 1 o'clock it closed at 0.c. The dullness of the markets is tirin £ out outs The ordinary specu- Iator does not want to walt long for his profit, and the holders of wheat have now waited several weeks, The predictions from New York are that the clearances this week will not be larce, and the figures so far goa long way toward bearing this out. There were only 47,500 bushels of wheat cleared from New York to-day, but it is one of the remarkable facts that almost invariably when New York clearances drop down to a low tigure, Philadelphia and Baltimore get outa { d deal, and this was the case to-day. Still, a muech longer prolongation of this speculative dullness will, to a certainty, start selling. nactivity here is invariably associ- ated in the speculative mind with wea There will have to come very soon a raid or an advance, Guessing is now about even. The taking of thirty-two boat loads of wheat for export at New York came into the market in the afternoon at a moment when there was no other incentive either to advance or de- press the price. The result was that May Wheat \wm qnlr‘kly 10 81%¢.

CunicAGo, March 22.—[Special Telegram to the BEE.] CATTLE.—Receipts to-day were surprisingly light, but the receipts for the week show an increase of 4,500 cattle. Hog receipts are the same as last week. ‘The markets are stronger and both cattie and good hogs sold 10 higher. Very few per- sons would have believed if told that to-day’s receipts of cattle would show so large a fall- ing off—less than half as many cattle as were here Monday. Some salesmen thought they had been too hasty in granting concessions yesterday and tried to make it up to-day. ‘The general demand was fairly good. though it was evident that buyers were afraid to show much anxiety to-day lest prices should get away from them again in another sharp upward flight. However, the market was stronger, and there was a great difference in sales, as there is in salesmen and buyers. ‘The market was active and g{)lce« ruled 10¢_higher. bl\J"ph'lx steers, 1 1500 1bs, $5.00(5.40: l' to 1350 Ibs, $4. :Wl)ln lfl!)lba 4.00@4.50.

London was doing nothing. Room trad ers were bullish on some of the specialties, and after any action at all began the general Jist showed & small advance. Lackawanna, New ‘York Central, and Omaha, both common and vreferred, evinced the most strenzth of the more active stocks, aside from Pullman, which was marked up 2% per cent from the opening. For this latter appreciation no theory was advanced. Cotton seed oil certifi- cates were the exception to the general strength, selling off about 1} points from the opening, then reacting until half the loss was recovered. The total sales to noon were 52,000 shares. The afternoon wore away un- eventfully. Omaha common eased off to about the opening tigure and cotton seed oil certificates weakened a little. Pullman held up well and Lackawanua maintained the most of its improvement. The total sales for the dav were 134,247 shares. GOVERNMENTS—Uovernment bonds were dull but steadv.
