A - THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. | Wheat Makes a Small Advanca Under Brisk Buying By Shorts. LARGE CORN SPECULATIONS, Oats Quite Active and Somewhat Stronger—Little or No Change in Provisions—Oattle and Hogs. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Cnicaao, Feb, 27.—|Special Telogram to Tne Bee.|—The wheat trade generally is without nerve. Yesterday traders came on the floor londed with wheat from the meht before, waiting for the cold weather bulge. It did not bulge, fhowever, and the crowd sold out the first hour. Today the trade generally camo down short, expectirg a de- cline on the soft weather. Itaid not decline and 80 the crowd kastened 1o covor the first hour, putting the price up f{c in short order, The best thing aboutthe quick advance made early today was that up to 1 o'clock it prom- ised to hold and trade refused to turn smd scll what they bought on the early advance. The market opened a trifle easier with no important news at hand. Thero was quite alittlo selling for the first few minutes 10 start a broak. It started but Ifc, when very suddenly offerings in the pit ceased largel, Pardridge hustled his brokers in to cover somo short wheat ana he succeeded i getting over 500,000 bushels for May be- fore the advance set in. About this time Seult had advices from Michigan cancelling orders to sell, as winter wheat was found to be largely damaged; that cold weather still prevailed over Kausas, Nebraska and Mis- souri besides extremo cold in the northwest. This made many fear that hard freezing might any hour begin in Iilinois and other states. Minneapolis reported a better de- mana for cash whoat for the United Kingdom New York dispatches said that buyors of cash wheat for export were working mvs- teriously. Clark wired that 500,000 bushols of No. 2 red and choice wheat had been taken for export in three days. Still later the flour exports from New York, Boston and Baltimore were wired, ‘Lhoy reached 7,900 packages rrom throe ports, the largest of the year. Chicago inspected 30,000 bushols of No, ¥ spring from store. All these influences combined to give the market a good lift and hold May sold from 77} T @78%0, to T8 S5 @ e At 1 o'clock. sold up to T84c and July to T6ic. ‘I'ne best buyers of the day were Pardridge early, Hutchinson, Chandler, Brown and Lamscn Brothers, followed by the crowd. i G. Moore & Parker & Co., and L. Everingham & Co. were early sellers, while Lindblom, Cottrell and others sold on the advance. Pardridge tried to break the mar- ket again by selling heavily around 7Slgc, but the crowd took his wheat and wanted more, 'I'he bears failed to bring about a break in wheat before the close. A dispatch from Philadelphia reported the entire stock of wheut there taken for export, On this the price here closed at about the top for the day. February 76le, March 763gc, May T8¥e, June 8ije, July T03{c. A large speculative busineas was trans- acted in corn, the market being move active than for several days pas The feeling prevailing was stronger and trading was at a considerable advance over the prices rui- fug yesterday. ‘I'ransactions were largely in May, though July received considerable attention. ‘Tne tirmer tone was due largely to the receipts not running up to the calcu- lations of many, the strength in wheat and to rumors of f®uds in the Onio valley. Re- ceivers sold quite fairly. An excellent de- mand existing from commission houses, buy- ing was more pronounced than asual. The speculative market opened at vester- day's cioming figures, was firm and advauced in all d@igc, eased off 8 litte, ruled stroug und closed (@io better than yesterday. The cash market was firmer, fair inquiry .existed with mod- erate offerings. Sales were higher by’ a shade than yesterday and closed rirm, 2 was in fair request and at 98K @uSe and oclosed Ay “8lgc. No. 8 sold at 20@26%c, ouls special, and closed at 20@263c. No. 3 yel- low sold in a certain house at 206)sc and closed at 20150, Ouats were stronger. This market was thevery first to feel the bull ;influence this worning and was in a shape to make a quick advance. Ever since the raiding which brought out the big lot of oats held by Pard- ridge two weeks ago there has been a fear less hamnmering of the market, Receivers have sold 1 the pit agaiost their holdings of oats. There was more or less short iuterest with large and small operators inter- ested. New York was higher on oats this mornin The receipts hero were very light. Stock also very light. Hutchiuson started in to buy, He was fol- lowed by Counselman. They both were fol- lowea by the shorts. The price on May opencd at 2lc and in half un hour was 9114@ 219c. June sola at 203{@2115c at tho same time, There wasa drop of Yo from top erccl before noon, but again befora 1 o'clock May was at 213¢@215c, Thero were no importany features devel- oped in the market for hog products and no marked changes, Trading was about on @ scale with the previous days of the week and credited mainly to local operators. Trading was cbiefly in May and July con- tracts with some business in transfer at a current difference of 10@12!¢c on mess pork, 10@12}4c on lard and 10@12c on short rib sides. In the snipping branch of the vrade there was only a fair trade reported. Some wquiry on exports account chiefly for the woderate quantitics, but buyers for the domestic trade were slow to purchase. Hold- ers, as a rule, were firm in their views and insisted on full former prices, and the record of transactions indicated very little change. CHIVAGO LIVE STOUK. Crioaco, Feb. 27.—[Special Teleg Trr Ber)—Carrur—Business was fairly active with little or no variation in prices as compared with yesterday, Exporters were outin full force, yet were extremely cau- tious as vo how they made bids, and rode away from almost anything they could not gev aroubd $4.50 aud under—principaily under. Dressed beef dealers were also out in force and bought about their usual num- ber. The receipts of today were light, Cow stock and butchers stock generally was in moderate supply aud prices the same as for the past two or three days. The supply of stockers and feeders for the past few days waa hardly up to the wants of the buyers, hence u ‘slight upturn in ~prices on il cla Choico o extra beoves, $4.50 @4.90: medium to gooa steers, 1,830 to 1,500 1bs, $3.00@4.40; 1,200 to 1,550 lbs, §3.50 @4.201 950 to 1,200 Ibs, #3,30@3.70, Stockers and foeders, $2.40@i,00: cows, bulls and mixed, $1.50@3.25; bulk, $2.40@2 60; slop-fed steers and Texas corn-fed steers, §2.80@3.40, Hogs—Business continued active, with the bulk of sales within the range of $3.903 05, largely #3.95, a fow at 84.00 and a few at E8@INTA.

New Youk, Feb. 27.—|Special Telegram to Tus Hee |-Sroc ‘The opening of the stock market was rot very promising today. Chicago was doing but little and London had but few orders. Trade credits the raiding of yesterday to the interest headed by Cam- mack and Jones, Bulls here draw some comfort from the favt that, with all the dis- couraging news wired to the west yesteraay, Cnicago operators failed tw turn sellers, Comu ission people claim that they cannot induce outside business while professional boars act so unnatural. With this feellng prevailing at the start it was no little sur- prise to Hud but few orders from London snd the west, indicativg higher prices. London was most marked prices there belng equal to & gain of frow 4 OMAHA DAILY BE 13: FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1800 to 1 per cent above the figuros of last evening and this market responded to the Improvement, though the gaina were not so large. First prices as compared with last evening's figurea wore generally from 4 to 3¢ per cent higher, but there were some de clines and in almost every case the first prices were the best of the hour. Suear Trust was again very active, and after opening down ¥ per cent at 63 it dropped to 61). Union Pacific was the weakest stock 1n the regular list and declined from 647¢ to 633, followed by Missouri Pacific, Burlington and others with fractional losses. Tennessee Conl, however, openod up 5§ at 060 and dropped away suddenly to 8734, Besides tho stocks mentionod, St. Paul was most prominent in dealings, but fluctuated over a narrow range, and the re- mainder of the market was dull and lifeless. There was a slight up-turn throughout the list before noon, Sugar moved up to 617, Louisville to 851, Erie to 20%, Burlington recovered 14 to 108¢, Rock Island the same to 8937, St. Paul to the opening brice, . Union Pacific touched 633¢, 1 per cent under last night, and then recoverod to 64, still re- maining the weakest stock on the list of standard atocks, There wasa better tone to stocks before the close because the bears failed in their efforts to break the market, Closing prices were irregular, with Union Pacific 7§ loweron adverse reports about the funding bill; and Chicago Gas wentup to 4614 and closed at 4507, or 1 per cent up.
