THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 29. 1887 THE SPECULATIVE MARKET A Weak and Tired Feeling Shows Itself in the Wheat Pit. CORN ACTIVE AND HIGHER. A Better Showing of Life Character- fzes Provistions—Prices for Cattle Stronger--Hogs Steady—Gen- eral Qaotations. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET, CnicAGo, Sept, 28.—|Special Telegram to the Brr.|—Tlhere was a weak and tired feeling in the wheat mar- ket this morning at the opening and the usual reaction after several days ad- vance. ‘The realizing of profits by the longs, both here and elsewhere, was credited with its fair share in bringing about such a result. Moreover, the majority of traders never look for & continuous advance and act upon their belief in a reaction and naturally help to eause it. There was not much news, but ‘what there was appeared to favor the bears. A greatly increased movement of spring wheat 1s expected in the mnorthwest, rallroad men reporting a demand for cars greater thar they can supply. New York dispatches announce a ‘*‘soft” market and good houses selling there. Public cables reported spot wheat tirm and an increase of 400,000 bushels in the amount on passage to the United Kinzdom. Later cables quoted the near future on Callfornia wheat at }{d decline, but gave an advance for the January delivery. Ream was sald to have put out again this morning the wheat bought by him yesterday. Milmine, Bod- man & Co., who have furnished u good sup- port for the market for several days, began selling yesterday and were selling to-day. 1t was also reported that Henry Clews & Co. were heavy sellers in New York. Fieming & Boyden were still buyers of October, but not, it is belleved, In as large quantities as of Jate. At least two houses here and possibly others had New York dispatches giving a de- crease in the amount on passage to the United Kinzdom of 940,000 bushels instead of an increase of 400,000 bushels, as the board of trade cable had it. From the opening, which was at nl}fe for October, 74c for ember and 79i{c for May, there was a slicht rally and then a quiet steady decline to the 1 o’clock close, which was at tho low rolnt of the session—71c for October, c for De- Comber and isge for Moy, "The Yoss for th session from yesterday’s closing prices was fie in October and %c in December and dle corn market was active and mthanmd there was a very large amount of business transacted. The d d for cash corn for shipment, which h: to, continues ood‘n med to be all in favor of the buyers. west public estimate ot the corn crop yet mlde—that br the Farmers’ Review of L bushels—was a strengthening l’allllm, nn& the recently published reports of a great shortage in the root crop of Great Britain, and alsoof the shortage in the Danubian corn crop, from which Great Britain’s de- mands for corn have been largely supplied, were taken as an intimation ot increased ex- port demand for our corn. There Was con- siderable covering of short sales, and that, %00, Dy big beats. Hutchinson's brokers were for'the first time buying_ May corn as well as October, and plenty of it. “Baker was a purchaser a«ain of cash corn and it is now said that these purchases are for export. J. 1. Lester & Co, were also buyers. The receipts to-day were but 377 cars, 400 less than were e‘qn('v.md. and but 200 cars are estimated for to-morrow. Vessei room was taken here for 130,000 bushels of corn to-day. Public cables quoted corn higher wlth an upward undenc) .

'The principal feature of the market was the unusual strength de- veloped in cash and the near futures. Sales of No. 2 oats were made on track to go to store IIM and October improved from 25}g¢ at the opening to 253¢@26c bid at the 1 o'clock close, being an_advance in tne latter of astrong ‘.

Interest, however, was largely trans- ferred to the Jabuary mouuct‘ though in the near deliveries of lard, as wellas in October short ribs, there was more or less doing throughout the day. 1n the January future, which was in good demand, so far as short ribsand pork were concerned, by a heavy trader to cover short contracts, there was ai- mon a boom. Pork for this month sold from $12.321¢ up to $12.55 and short ribs from $6.27 up lu $6.40, closing at ?l) . 42) and $0.52 respectively. the ~ advance actually establis| xed was lelgc and in short ribs 5¢ January lard, which was slower than the other speculative lines, sold at Sb.45 and closed at §6.47}¢ bid, an impro 2)4¢.

The bull element seemed to have control, but did not press their advant- age. The bears were nervous and anxious to cover and the shgnt advances recorded were chiefly the result of their operations. Londoners continue to hoid the bulk of their stocks, which is regarded as an encouraging feature, Deacon White took hold of St. Paul and despite the talk about decreased earn: Ings succeeded in driving the shorts in, and advaneing prices 5 per cent. A feature ot the market in trading was the strength in the Vanderbilts and Coalers. Lake Shore was bulled on reports that its dividend would be increased to 5 per cent, also that the in- siders were buying it. The favorable state- ment‘made by Reading yesterday had a good effect, and prices advanced 1 per cent. Jersey Central followed with a similar advance, but Lackawanna only went up % per cent. The rest f the market was steady to firm, but outside the favorites little was done. There was a perceptible hardening ot the market as the day advanced, and prices gradually ad- vanced, last sales being like yesterday, at outside figures on & majority of stocks, the advances ranging from ' to 1l per cent.
