YT e YR B L THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. A Great Day For Spinning Yarns In the Wheat Pit. CORN SHOWS A FIRM UNDERTONE Nothing of Importance In Oats—Pro- visions Vory Steady —Cattle De- mand Fair ana Prices Steady—Hogs, CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. Cnicaao, April 4, —[Special Telegram to Tar Bee.|—This was a great day for the circulation of personal gossip, and the inter- est in this phase of the wheat market over- shadowed everything else. The first morsel of news of this kind was that the house n which Leopold Bloom had centered his trade had called on hiw for margins, and that he had lugged around £500,000 in gilt- edged securities to protect a line of 500,000 bushels of May wheat.: This report was telegraphed all over the country and seems 0 have a basis of truth, The next story ‘was that Hutchinson and Fairbank had had & falling out over the managemeut of a deal and that they were running a foot race to see who could got out first. Another yarn was to the effect that in its efforts to shake out Bloom the clique had been obliged to part with more wheat than it wanted to, and that it had practically abandoned May, there being 1o longer enough profit in sight to pay for the risk attendant upon running the squeeze. Still another report, which is roall sequence of the last theory, is that the clique trades in May will all be ‘“‘rung up” to-morrow, and the deal be closed so far a8 the clique intercsts in May contracts go. The Fairbank party is now supposed to have a very heavy interest in July, and it would not be straining ut probabilitios to_suppose that the bull leaders will not suffer their warehouse receipts to drift into other and possibly hostile hands, so h’"r as they have a large open interest in July. This, however, mere speculation. May wheat opened this morning at97c, and climbed rapidly to 993{c, when Hutchinson appeared in person an directed his brokers, who, by offering big blocks, broke the market to 931gc. Con- siderable wheat was sold on this break, but Hutchinson was clearly more anxious to smash l.hu price than he was to get rid of the wheat. Afterwards the clique brokers tried to pick up whest, but they aid not succeed in getting much, and their efforts served to advance prices sharply. May re- acted w the vicinity of 95¢, when Poole and Fainum were turned loose on_July, running that down le, from 864c to 851¢c., This car- ried May down again to about 03c. There was sharp trading in May at some points, but it is impossible to form any idea of the actual extent of the transactions. The estimates range from 1,500,000 to 8,000,000 bushels sold. July opened at 863¢c, sold up to 8715, hmku to 8614¢. sold up several times to S6lgc then off 8Hlgc, with sales by Fainum at "yc The price clung close to 8514c for a half hour. It got down once to , and closed at 8536 @8h% ¢, a loss of 1{c as compared with v(,slfi:rduy May ll‘fl off at 03}gc. The close yesterday was 077¢ Cablegrams to lhc board of trade gave as- surance of the continuance of the fore mand for corn. *“Tending up for Ame! corn,” was the language of the Liverpool dispatch. The export clearances continue on a liberal scale, which proves the genuineness of the foreign demand. In addition to the clcarances from the Atlau- tie ports, New Orleans was a shipper of 85,000 bushels yesterday, which was cleared for Dunkirk. ~There was some inquiry from the nlmrtu which was oc- casioned by the considerations here referre to, and helped the firmness of the d market. The demana for cash corn forship- ment was likewise good, and navigation now being virtually open was an additional hard- ening influence. The receipts at primary markets were light, and the outside markets were all steady to firm 1n price, There" was no great volume of business, but a firm un- dertone to this market is seen in the steadi- ness of prices in the face of the pronounced ‘weakness in the neighboring wheat pit. The changes in value were slight, but what little there was favored the bulls. Tn oats nothing of importance transpired, the speculative market ruling only moder- ately active within a narrow range. The ovening was weak, with a subsequent im- grovnmnnt of about lic, owing to the fair uying onthe part of the few local traders and the absence of any pressure to sell. May ‘was in some request around 28%;c, and June and July were prnc&lcallv the same in price, at 251c. to go to store, sold at 247c. The ‘pmvlslon traders leunud to the con- servative side in their trading. They ex- tended to the market close attention, but there was no freedom in their operations, and the aay opened and closed without a sin- gle sensational feature. In a general way the disposition to buy was perhaps a little more marked than the desire to sell, and, as a consequence, prices were held very steady. In pork the fluctuations experienced were onty 17}c, lard 23§@itge and in short ribs The closings were a little higher than yesteraay as a rule. In pork the ad- yance established was be, and in lard 2gc. Bhort ribs closed unchanged to 2¢c higher. CHIOAGO LIVE S8TOOA. Cuicaco, April 4.—|Special Telegram to Tue Beg, | —CarrLe—The demand continues fair and prices remain steady to strong, some salesmen having exactly what the buyers wanted got a slight advance, especially on nice handy stock, but 1n a general way there was little or no chunge as compared with yesterday.

New Yong, April 4.—[Special Telegram to Tuk Bee.l--Srooks—The stock market continues monotonous with what' auimation, there is confined to a few securities, Dur- ing the first hour to-day the drooping ten- dency of yesterday prevailed and teft the list ou tho whoie lower than at the opening, First prices were generally from X to % better than at the close yesterday. The ex- ceptions to this were Northern Pacifie pre- forred, 3 higher, and Northwestern and Chicago Gas, & lower, Prices were simply irregular, with most of the business in Atchison, Missouri Pacific, Burlington and Reading. Of these, Missouri Pacific moved up 3, Burlington declined 3, au® Atcnison went off % per cent. Theso were the princi- pal movements of the morning. At 11 & m. the market was dull, and the list ruled a fraction under the first figures. Later inthe forencon there was a return of activity and strength in a few stocks, Everything on the Aist turned upward more or less from tife bot- tom prices of the morning, and at noon prices were slightly better thau at the opening. The features of the hour were the advauce in Burlington to the worning price, in Mis- souri Pacific to 70, a net galu of 13¢, yvith fairly good turns in St. Paul, Unioa Pacific, Northwestern and Lackawarns, leaving each ’¢ to 3 over last night. Stocks con- tinued irregular to the close, with an up- ward tendency more marked the last hour thau was the decline early, Following the strength shown about midday, the fecling spread more generally throughous the list, udmmudnmulouhbflwmum P ldall La et for some time. The strength was traceable to the action 1n Missouri Pacific, with much talk of Gouldbuying Atchison. Much of the buying was by the short interast. At the lose Atchison was 11§ per cent higher, Bur lington, Missouri Pacific, Northern Pacifio preferred, New England and Rock Island 1 point sdvanced, with Lake Shore, North- western, Louisville & Nashville, Reading, St. Paul and Union Pacific 1¢ to 5% higher. Chicago Gas lost 1 per cent.
