Ontoaao, March 23, —[Special Telezram to Tue Ber.|—There was more music than news in the wheat market to-day and the May shorts danced to a very lively tune. The fluctuations in prices extended over a range of 6c and there was cold comfort for the shorts at any stage of the proceedings. The opening quotation for May was 99igc, and for the first half hour the market had an uncertain tone. The trading crowd looked for a reaction after yesterday’s sharp ad- vances, and the price worked down to 99c. The fluctuations were between 995¢c and 99c for quite a while. Suddenly the market started up and it did not stop until $1.9114 was reached. There was a pause at that point and breaks to $1.00%. The next thing anybody knew the price was 81.031¢, A sharp bresk folowed and o bulge to $1.035%. Active trading at $1.03}¢ @ 1.08%{ ensued and then the wave rolled the market to $1.04%{. The changes that fol- lowed immediately were within a range of $1.043(@1.08%. A few minutes before 12 o'clock a rush to buy carried the price to $1.05. This point was reached twice about that time, and then the market settled nervously to $1L03%@1.03%. It traveled back to $1.05 again, however, with sales Jgc higher. Another break to $1.03%{ ‘was the next feature, succeeded by a slight rally, the closing quotations being $1.033¢, or 4140 better than yestorday. There was fairly lively acton in July, but nothing compared to May. This future opened at 86l¢c and ranged at 863¢@3S}gc, closing at 88@S8)c, a net improvement of 1}¢c over yesterday. The amount of business done in the pit was large, but it was lighter than might bave ‘been expected under the circumstances, The excitement ran high and little account was taken of the outside news. The interest centered in the May deal, as a matter of course, By common consenttho shorts were gwven the bulk of the credit for the terrific advance. and there was nothing on the sur- face to show that they were all in atthe close. Thecovering of short wheat was ne- cessarily on a large scale, but it could not be learned that any considerable percentage of concentrated long wheat came out to supply the demand from that quarter. If the Fair- bank-Hutchinson party let go any large uantity of wheat it could not be located. he nference is that Dolan was the ma- chinery by which the short sales were made. This, however, may be a mistake, In such a market as that wituessed to-day, the exact facts were very dificult to obtain. One pe- culiarity about the trade to-day was the quietness with which the big changes were wrought. The market made frequent jurnps of l&l]l‘»{c and the breaks were almost as rapid, on which next to no trading was possi- ble. This was exceedingly rough on the brokers with stop orders, and will involve an endless line of explanations. The market was not made to suit everybody. The pace ‘was fast and furious. The very pronounced strength in the wheat market created some fear in the minds of the short sellers of corn and they were free buy- ers. The market opened rather.weak ata fraction under yesterday's closing figures, but from the cause above mentioned soon be- came strong, and the May future advanced from 85{c to 853{c, where the price stood at noon, The receipts again largely ex- ceeded the estimates, and about 223¢ per cent of them were inspected into contract grade. The Livel 1 market was quoted easier, ‘but the daily clearances from the Atlantic seaports bfilr witness to the steady demand existing around the present prices, From New Orleans 20,000 bushels clo«red for Liv- erpool yesterday and 20,000 bushels for Rouen. The opening price ‘for May was 35, gfi& c. The lowest price it sold at w i4c and the highest 353¢c. The mild, clear and dry weather at this season prove powerful allies of the bears, but when the shorts are nervous an advance i ble to oceur as it did vo-day in spite of what might be termed adverse circumstances. The clos- ing prices for the various futures were from 50 10 4o in ldvlnos of yesterday’s"quota- ions. Oats ruled quiet lml uneventful within a fiu range, averaging a tnfle firmer, with ay the favorite future. The month named sympathized in a mild degree with the other markets, and, assisted by the support derived from the buying orders for m:wunt. of the shorts, sold up J6@¥o to 25%c. Thero was a fair trade in June at 253¢c, whlle July was dull, but fully steady at 25@25}¢c. The cash movement was moderate with No. 2 to o to store dull at 243 @243c, aud No.3 " regular, or Maich, neglected at The provmon traders experlnnued @ bullish market. The hog arrivals were considerably under the expectations, and as light receipts, only 9,000 head, were predicted for to-mor- row’s trade, they had no trouble in comman: ing a support that made it keep company with wheat and corn in the upward march generally witnessed. It was a bull movement almost from the start, and the day’s business was characterized by unusual activity and more than the ordinary excitement. The shorts, of course, found it convenient to cover freely to escape additional marginal calls, yet the buying took & wide range and fncluded most all classes, Consi erable property was taken by grain men, and there were also free purchases on outside account. The trading was animated and general, with ?ork as usual, the center of {nmren, l'ol- wed by lard, and then by short ribs, lowest prices quoted prevailed at or near thu opening and the highest during the last half hour of the session, In pork the fluctuations extended Ihmugh 2ti¢e, in lard 10c and in short ribs 13'¢c. The closings showed a net ldvnnoe of 221¢@3%¢ in pork, 7i4@10¢ in lard and 5@7igc in short ribs. OHIOAGO LIVE STOCA. Cuicaco, March 22.—|Special Telegram to Tue Bee.|—Carrie—There were one or two additional buyers for export steers, and their orders were rather urgent, hence that class of stock sold quick and substantially higher, but there was little or no change to note in ordinary and medium -steers, and if soything a slight upturn. The chances were that everything useful would sell, and that the general market would close steady. ‘The decrease of 8,000 or 9,000 in two weeks 18 beginning to show the effect of not over- crowding the market, There were no Texans among the arrivals and none ex- pected.
