A SCRAMBLE TO UNLOAD WHEAT | The Number of Cattle on Sale Insuf- | ¢ ficient to Make a Market—Hogs Active and Higher—Gen- eral Quotations, CRICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. Cittcaao, April 16, —[Special ' the Ber.)=Leopold Bloom offe this morning from $10,000 to $50,000 that there would be no corner in May wheat, As to make a bet of this sort would be really to “tail on” nobody took the offer. March op- erators who beli ina May corner would rather make their bets in the wheat pit by purchases. There they could limit their loss, or even make a hedgo at the last mo- mont, The proposition was ealled out by Audden drop in the price of the May option from S85e to 84c. Clique houses were very heavy sellers of wheat yesterday, that Is cer- talu, A great many trades ‘‘rung up” this morning that have been open for months. The same houses were sellers at the opening this morning. ‘Lhere were 80 many bear clrcumstances--from rain In the west to big sales by the clique,— that tailers became excited and there was a scramble to unload. But there have been drops like that a good deal more serious. When they were all over cliyue houses had more wheat than ever and a firmer grip on shorts, It was not remarkable that the whoat tenslon of yesterday. ‘Ihe fact that there was not near as siarp a demand for May at 81{c as there was yesterday at 86c aid .not convince the crowd thatthe clique operations were over. “There have been shaking out procesnes bofore that have swung the market & zood deal lower, yet when the equilibrium was recovered ~ the clique was in possession still and shorts n & ‘worse rather than In a bpetter position, At is estimated that Irwin, Green & Co., and Field, Lindley & Co., duting the last three days have aggregated 5,000,000 bushels for Pay, enough to have a temporary effect on tht lnlrkl‘t. but nnt(‘ll()urll to at all change the situation it cllqlm holdIngs are anywhere near as large as they are supposed to be. One remarkable feature of the past few days has been the steady buying by Kershaw & Co., while other clique brokers were selling. ‘The weck’s operations have demonstrated one_thing to a certainty,—the present bulls in May are extending their operations into June and July and even September. Atl o'clock May wheat closed at 8il¢. May corn closed at at30'¢. It wasconfidently expected by corn shippers that the May option would drop lurtherlm(nre May 1.

CHICAGO, April 16.—[Speclal Telegram to the BEE.]—CATTLE—Of the small number of eattle recelved some 3,000 were received by dressed beef men from eastern buyers. The mumber of cattle on sale, therefore, was not sufficlent to make & market quotation. The trade of the day was limited and little or no criterion of market values. Krom Tuesday to Thursday, or from the high to the low part of the week there was a declino ot about 2 @%c. Friday the market was strong, fairly tive, and in some cases a part of the decline as regained. The market has lately beon dull and sluggish, partly on account of the stagnant and depressed condition of the for eign marke!

Northern Pacific preferred opened 3¢ point higher, and advanced 3 early in the day, with London buying and Philadelphia solling.
