THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. The Oliqne Houses Come to Time and Keep Wheat Steady. PRICES SLIGHTLY IMPROVED. Corn Only Fairly Active, With But a Small Volume of Trading—A Strong Feeling in Oats— Quotations, CRHICAGO PRODU CitteAGo, pecial telezram to the Brg, ]~ furious raid that was wade on the wheat market yesterday afternoon was followed up this morning by free and apparently concerted calls upon the clique houses for margins up to the 10 per centlimit, the so-called cligne bank being barred out as & depository for the funds. The clique firms responded cheerfully and called back the full 10 per cent, making no stipulation as to where the money should or should not be deposited, The cross-fire of margin calling was general and heavy. This morning the market opened 1¢e higher for the whole list of futures than it closed yesterday. June wasovenly pegged at 8¢, one of the clique brokers standing in the pit for half an hour vociferously offering to buy an part of 4,000,000 bushels for Juue delivery at that ficure. 'This bold play deterred the contemplated continuation of yesterday’s raid and checked the liquidation of “‘tailer” wheat. ‘The bears maintain that the break yesterday was the resultof unloadine of long wheat and hint strongly that it was clique wheat, Butitis quite clear that the bears selves plaved an important part in the ent. Further gossip was in cireulation ing clique difficulty in gefting ac- nodation from loeal banks on the tering desired, but the clique houses certainly acted as though they were feeling easy on the question of finance. ‘I'ne opening prices were about at the bottom, thoagh July sold g off at 86%e. Atone stage of the session the range on June wheat was 88@Ssiie, July BOY @304, August 84X wyie, September S he 1 o'clock range was 8Sic for June, 865c for July, e for August and S4'Jc for September, This 1san _average gain of %@ige, as com- pared with yesterday. ‘The business passing was of only moderate volume. In June little was done after the tirst thirty minutes, Corn was just fairly active ln—(ln{ in the speculative market, the volume of trading being smaller and the_ feeling less nervous than noted yesterday. Fora time after the opening considerable weakness was shown a8 the same influences in the way of liberal receipts and fine weather were operative as heretofore. But prices sageed only !4e, and under pretty promiscuous, though not heavy, buving, the ground lost was recovered and a litle more. July opened at 40ige, sold off to 89%{¢, then stiffened up to 40'5@dv'gc, and closed atl o'clock at 40@d0:xc. June opened and closed at 38%c, after selling ata range of from 581 @3SKC to 383e. Oats were stronger, especially for June, which made a gain ot 3ec, the resuit m-lnlyn( continued free sales of cash on uh|1|p ng account. That future closed at July and August were lg@ic ntmn(nn closing at 27gc and 2c re- spectively. The provision market fails to give any in- dication or promise of a speedy recovery fromn the apathy that has nurroumlexl it lately. There was, perhaps, a little more interest ex- hibited to-day, but In the way of actual trad- ing there was no Increase worth mentioning, and tho business transacted barely reachad a moderate amount. In lard and short ribs, the active lines, trading was again dh’ec!cd malnly to turning over outstanding contracts to later months at a difference of 10c. Prices were also quite strong and for short rivs the 10 o'clock quotations snowed an advance of 23gc over last night’s closings. Lard, how- ever, declined 5¢ for May dellvery. Pork sold at $23.00@?3.00, and closed at $23.50, an im- provement of H0e, Cash and June pork ranged nominally the same as May.

Paul & Duluth and Peoria, Decatur & Evansville prices were generally maintained very close to the ovening figures, St. Paul & Duluth gained 63§ per cent before noon, mak- ing a total gain of about 16 per cent this week. About the only point which has been made public is that a schewme is on foot to retire the preferred stock and give aividends which have heretofore been paid to preferred stock- holders to common stock. Some of the heaviest traders were buyers above 80 to-day, and the talk was that the stock would sell much higher. The whole market opened rather firm, but later almost everything eased off. St Paul was held very steady around 83 and there was sowe talk that Armour was vicking it up at that tigure, ‘The news from Chieago regarding the situation among the Granger roads was less belllgerent than for nvuw., and the opinion towards the elose to gain ground that the rate war 'was not such a serious watter after all. Pres- ident Newell, of the lLake Shore, was re- ported as talking very bullish, but stock acled weak and traders believed that a good deal of it was coming from Insiders, 1t was . reported that Consolidated Gas would to-day Inerease its.dividends from 30 to 40 per cent, and on this the stock was rallied about a point. London prices showed no change, although a moderately bullish feeling was ported from abroad. At noon the market w firm, the sales to that hour ag«regating 110, 000 shares. Several of the specialties boomed during the Iast hour and nearly everything on the list made a fractional gain. The Grangers closed strong, notwith standing the declaration of Manager Miller, of the St. Paul, that he would reduce rates from Omaha to Chicago June 1. Peoria, De- catur & Evansville was boomed on Its pur- chase to-day at sherif’s sale of the Indianap- olis, Decatur & Evansville road. The St. Paul earnings for the third week of May in- creased only $7,000, but in spite of the small increase and prospective rate war, buving was good enough to close it at top prices. ‘The total sales were about 215,000 shares.
