- THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY MARCH 24. 1887, WHEAT STARTS UP ACAIN. The California Crop Reported Bad and Prices Go Higher OTHER BULL NEWS RECEIVED. The Provision Pit Uively, With Lard and Short Ribs Leading—Corn Advances a Little—Gene eral Quotations, CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. CiicaGo, March % pecial Telezram to the Bge.]—The first advance in wheat was worked in this market by California crop news, That was at the time the coast had +had no rain atall for about sixty days, and when it had begun to be thought that every: thing was being dried up out there. On lhll scare wheat for May was 5¢ above present prices, Butthere came a little wetting down and California crops were altogether forgot ten, and the wheat markets were run on alto- gether another issue, Now the California crop is being talkeda up again, ay wheat ‘was advanced at the opening to-day on a re- vival of bad weather talk. ‘The cable wasa little bullish, May opened at Siige. The clearances at New York to-day wers over 100,000 busliels, and the export business done there yesterduy (forty-two boat loads, accord- 1 to most reports), was quite large enough to encourage | ra ere to believe that cash wheat business betw. here and Europe on a large basis had been resumed, The chique brokers were sticking close to the wlheat and at the moment when Sli@Slc was touched they were bidders. There was an idea prevalent on the floor to-day that yes- terday’s low fizure—S0}c—will be the low point for some time. The provision pit is belng enlivened by operations in lard and ribs. Hogs at the yards were fewer and higher, and May short ribs as a consequence ‘were startea off at $5,15, Lard was strong. . Jn corn the price was moyed up to 40¢ for May on a little covering by some of lhe shorts, The big shorts— Ream and Jones—did not make ""f' ogu'n effort to buy in their corn, If they had there would havé been quite a rushing up of ‘rrl('vfl but still the erowd knows that there 8 a big short interest out, and the receipts are somewhat smaller than the extravagant bears predicted. But while the receipts ma; be a little smaller than the shorts had hoped. there are still over 6,000,000 bushels of corn in store here, with a great ot of country corn eertaln to arrive in the next sixty days. May €0TN A year ago was 3815¢, with the ‘receipts not much bigker and with the stock in store not much more than half the present one. ‘The grain markets on the afternoon board were dull but steady. Lard and short ribs were weak and 2lge _lower on lard and 7}g¢ ou short ribs.” Wheat for May sold at Sl@s1ly June at K0l @x0ice, July at BO@~0, ptember at K04e, December at 835, closing at 81%c for May, 80l4c for June, 80@SOise for July, 'Corn for May sold at 305 @svie, June at 40)5@@40%c, July at 4 closing with 413¢e.

CnicAGo, March 23.—[Special Telegram to the BEE.] -CATTLE.—To-day’s receipts were very light of cattla and hogs. For the week thus far there is an increase of only 3,800 cat- tle, and 2,600 decrease in hogs. The hog market rallied to-day and prices for good hows were fully as high as one week ago. Cattle continued lignt. The receipts gave salesmen more confidence and they began by asking considerably nigher prices. The de- mand was good but buyers were very reluc- tant to pay prices, and some of the more im- portant eastern shippers stood off, saying they would take their chances of buying lowerlaterin the week. There were some few wvery early sales of $5.90@5,40 cattle at higher prices, and the $4.25@4.85 cattle sold readily at just as high prices as last Wednesday, which was the high day of the season. After 10 o’clock there was less snap in the trade, ana while light and medium cattle were about all sold before that at 10c advance there were some late arrivals and there were some 1450 1600 1b ca tle which conld not be sold so well 1In fact there were some big cattle for which buyers would bid no higher than on Monday, At 2 o'clock there were numerous droves of cattle, mainly of good quality and heavy ‘weights, which could not be sold within 10@ 15¢ of the opening prices. Buyers were fig- uring on excessive receipts to-morrow and the mnrkct ‘closed weak. bhlpr ng steers, 1350 to 1500 Ibs, $5.00@5.403 to. !Li] 1 m-(l)‘fl’i)lol.‘ll)lb! 84,00 Stockers and feeders, $2.00@. and mixed, 82.25@i.00: bulk Hoas—Trade was active and Be nigher at the opening, but rather easier ai the close. A few fancy heavy sold at 85.90@ 0.00; the bulk of the hest ynckhuz sorts at $5.75@>5.85, and common at Su 45@5,65, Light vorts sold at §5.255.80. FINANCUIAL. New York, March 23, —[Special Telagram to the BEE.|—STOCKS, he stock market was qulet again to-day, opening rather strong but dull, at about steady prices,. London bought some St. Paul and Reading, and com- mission houses were disposed to be bullish, but did little. Northwestern was strong, th common and preferred stock, and was bid up by room traders, as was Omaha also, The story gained ground yesterday on thead- wvance in Lackawanna that 8. V. White was a buyer because of the anticipated favorable showing which the March quarter is expected to make. His friends maintaln, however, that while he s a tirm believer In Lackawanna property, he is not buying any further lines, and intimate that the report was circulated to help the shorts in covering. Washington dispatches said Judge Cooley would be elected president of the inter-state commission. Rallroad men generally expressed satisfac- tion with the commissioners appointed, with the possible exception of Morrison, who is 2 thought to be antagonistic to railroad inter- ests. The earmings of the Fast Tennessee for the second week of March Increased $8,505, and for the third week Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western earnings were $55,758, An increase of $24,228, Cotton seed ol cer- fificates were quiet at about steady prices. Richmond Terminal was quite active and sold up a little early, but by noon had worked back to about the opening figures, The sales t0 12 o’clock were 60,000 shares. During the afternoon the market was, if possible, duller than ever. Theday throughout was devoid of interest and business was very light, ag- gregating 105,313 shares, GOVERNMENTS—Government bonds were @ull but steady to firm, YESTERDAY'S qvo-nnoxs. N.
