THE OMAHA DAILY THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. Emperor Frederick’s Oritical Con- dition Gives Wheat Another Lift. CORN EXCITED AND HIGHER. Reaching the Highest Price of the Crop Year—Oats Continue Ac- tive—Provisions Dull—Cactle Retier Slow. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET, Omioaao, (April Special Telegram to the Bee.]—Since yesterday another bull- ish factor of immediate influence has come into the wheat market, and that is the condi- tion of the German emperor. The crop scare had already brought about a surprising ad- vance and a buying fever was on and when the expectation of the emperor's death was added, the price of wheat advanced 1c over last night. There is but little variety to crop news, From those sections from which bad reports have been coming they still come and are growing worse instead of better. Yet the wheat traders who three weeks ago paid no attention to them may be going to the op- posite extreme just now. Trading in wheat has grown immensely within the past few days. Tnterest never flagged to-day, and trading was large and general. Cudahy, Who has been a most persistent and obsti- pate bear for some years, was probably the heaviest buyer of wheat to-day, and the floor gossip is that he is now long on wheat. There was plenty of realizing by the longs about the opening, which sent prices off about }c, but the demand was good, and when the upward movement once set in the covering by shorts sent the prices up again 1i{c from the lowest point reached., Here there were more longs wanting to realize than shorts or investors willing to buy, and slowly 47c of the advance was lost, the' clos- ing being actually a trifie below the opening price, though 3 higher than yesterday's close. May wheat opened at 82ice, just 1c abovo yesterday's close, worked down to 8134c, then gradually advanced, with fre- quent small reactio until 8237c w reached, then fell to §2¢, which was the price at the 10'clock close, June wheat opened at 21¢c, up to 83igc, and closed at 1 o'clock at, 82 ¢@Se. There was an excited and higher opening in the corn market, which scemed to bo largely in_sympathy with the advance in wheat, but this was followed by a_sharp de- cline o yesterday’s closing price, and after a small recovery the market became quite tame, with light trading and no noticeable feature, the attention of traders being largely given to wheat, It was dull and rather monotonous until the last hour, when some buying, probably stimulated by the small es- timate of receipts for to-morrow, caused a Lively advance, on which May corn touched 57c, the highest price yet reached by that de- livery in this crop year. On_December 5 corn touched 563c, the highest price heretofore reached. At the top price to-day there was very little trading _and presently 34c of the advance was lost. The receipts of corn to-day were about as_expected, but the grading is much better and this was an cncouragement to the bears. May corn opened at 565¢c, which was crday’s closing price, sold up 10 b8 @¢c, then fell to 56lge, advanced to bic, fell to 56ig0, and closed at 56c, which was thc opening price. June corn opered ot 5igc and 563¢¢, and closed at 1 K" another active day in oats, with a strong, advancing market. May oats opened at 3¢, sold at 325(@3337c, up to 83ge, and closed at'1 o'clock at 83} @3Bl{c. June oats opened at B¢e, ranged from B @334e, at d3ie. Ju mm,ul Tom 25{c to 38lce, closing at “August oats ranged from 25%c to 2%, ot oEaoe) September oats ranged from 28}¢c to 255{c. Provisions continue to act independently of grain. In to-day’s market the feeling, influenced by advices from the stock yards, where hogs were plenty and lower, was casier, yet the depression actually suffered was comparatively small. Based on lasy mght's final y the decline in pork was limited to 10@12!5c, in lard to 2@be, and in short ribsto 7! sold at 813gc, up to 815 closing 813¢, July closing at 83%c. Corn opened biige for May, sold at, 50igc thon up, with slight changes, o split, cluslu;z [ Iy 55 askod: Pork was steady, closing at- &14 for May, $14.50 for Jung, and $14.221 Lard was quiet and wes quoted at 8770 for May, $7.75 for June, and §7.80 for July.

The res- ‘toration of rates by tho Burlington had an -uwumm wwn aud gave muurketul stronger undertone, and also made room traders bullish. London, however, was no higher, and buying orders from that quarter were lighter, This cut little figuro as the market opened generally firm and advanced. Grangers and coalers exhibited the most strength, advancing 3 to 17 points, Lacka- wanna led and there appeared to be more do- ing in it than any other stock on the list. The bears showed fight on the advance but made little headway, all their offerings being read- ily absorbed. New England and. {il(‘%mond Termiiai, which were so bouyant yesterday, advanced 3 to 3¢ points early, and lost it all before 1 o'clock. The general features were not changed up to the close when last sales were at almost outside figures and showed advances ranging from J to 13¢. Lackawanna and Jersey had the lead. Burlington was up 1 point, Northwestern 3, St. Paul % and Western Union 3. The principal net declines were J¢ point on Richmond Terminal, and point on New England. Business among the Chicago stock houses was of a light volume owing to the excitement in grain. Total sales e 202,530 shares aganst 212,000 shares overnment bonds were dull but steady.

The packers were liberal buyers but there was also a fl)ud speculative demand. Over a thousand head of cattle chauged Lands be- fore the close. After the packers had filled their orders and all the best cattle had been sold the speculators were not inclined to pay Quite up to the worning prices and the mar- ket closed u little easier.
