WHEAT TARES A BIG SPURT | The May Option Rapidly Advances on Buy- ing By Clique Honses, A PECULIAR S1ATE OF AFFAIRS Nothing Affects the Market Except the Talk of a Corner—Shorts Show Great Anxiety—General Mar- ket Quotations, CHICAGOU PRODUCE MARKET. CincAGo, April 15, —[Special Telegram to the Brr. | =Whneat for May was at Sige for a minute to-day. Kershaw & Co., a cligu broker, bought some wheat for which he paid that figure. Other of the clique houses were selling at the same figures, The ordinary poiuts on the market don’t count for thing any longer wbout the wheat pit. The receipts, shipments, rain, drought, buyers, cllers, none of these significant and con- trolling influences at most times, are given & moment’s consideration now. There is only pne subject that is talked—it's the clique. Will there be storage room here? Will cash wheat be paid for by May 1?2 Wil the upset price be ¥c or §17 Will the deal stop at May or run throuzh June and July? These are phases of this one uppermost topie that ab- sorb all attention. ‘Lhe general opinion as to them all is given in the course of the market, 1t the crowd here did not believe that May wheat would all be paid for and taken in May L the price would not have been S6ic this morning, while it was e at Milwaukee, only @2ije at New York, Slc at St. Louis and ¢ at Detroit. . B.Ream, after a surve, mip, said: “If this drought in Ohio and In- diaha continues another week there will be buyers enongh from that seetion to unload this whole deal on.” K. G. McCormick says: “In answer to 1,500 inquiries sent out by wy- self, the replies were that in Ohio and In- diana and in parts of Kansas winter wheat bad already suffered terribly, 1n Hllinois and Missouri the crops had not suffered yet. but continued dry weather will cause them 1o suffer desperately.” ‘There have been many times during the progress of the wheat deal when the shorts and bears on the mar- ket who uave not happened to be short, stroking their chins and assuming a self-con- fident attitude, have asked their bull neigh- “Where in the world there was any te shortage 1n this market to squeeze?”’ have becn, indeed, many days when it looked as if there was 1o shortage at all, as If the last man who had sold “short” had rovered. People familiar with “corners’ know how deceptive these days are. ‘These are dull, warm, depressing d when the foad of whent is heavier than lcad and when people who are short are exceedingly self- rontident and exceedingly quiet. ~There were no doubts expressed to-day as to whether thers was a short interest in this market worth squeezing. ‘The vells from the wheat pit as wheat salled up over fc per bushel gave all the an- gwer needed, The anxious look on the faces of the sleek and well-fed tellows who had been making big fortunes so rapidly in the past three years on the short side of wheat was another equally good answer. It1ssupposed that Field, Lindley & Co., &nd Irwin, Green & Co. sold 500,000 bushels apiece detween Noc and S6e to-day, andiyet 1,000,00)bushels of long wheat thrown on the market {rom this one source gave no relief at all.

CmicaGo, Avril 15.--|Special Telegram to the Brk. | —CAaTTL) In nickels and dimes the market could hardly be quoted better and yet a more healthy tone, & more ready sale s means a trifle more money for desirable cattle. Rough heavy and lean stoers were in ample supply and sold slowly at barely steady prices, but there was a gon- erally better feeling in trade. Speaking of the supplies of cattle a salesman said: “You will see that there are not too many fat cattle in the country.,” One cause of the recent weakness In the cattle trade, desplte thie light reccipts, was the fact that the weather in the east has been warm and the stockse of beef were larg 'Im, current ts, however, can be easily taken, and ers ure generally lu\hm-d to think the supplies will uot materially in- crease, Shipping steers, g to 1500 Ibs, !4 5.00; 1200 to 1550 Ibs, $4.40@4 200 H@4.20.
