P A R T A THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: (WEDNESDAY, COMMERCIAL AND FISANCIAL Wheat Trade Given a Stirring Up in Earuest Yesterday. PiICES Ahat Cereal Started Monday's Closing, Declined a Fraction, then Hecime Firm and Finat Figures Were Strong. ADVANCED VERY SHARPLY Ahout the Same as Criicaco, Oct. 24, —A stirring up in earnest was given the wheat trade in the last hour today. The closing cabl were much stronger. The wires were kept busy with ruwiors of a probable end of the silver fight. When the rumors were followed by positive assertions from senators that a vote on the re, eal vill was certain inside of twenty-four hours, the sentiment became very bullish, The shorts were in a great hurry to cover. New York ana the northwest bought in this market in 100,000 bu., lots. Prices advanced very sharply. The decline of two weeks was recovered in two hours. December wheat bounded up 13ge, closing at 1%c above last nieht's final quotation. Corn followed the fluctuations of wheat and closed with a gain of ac. Provisions ruled dull and lower., Wheat started about the same as yester- duy's closing to Ye lower, declined from e 10 i5c, then became firm and prices were ad- vanced fc, held steacy within this range until shortly before the close, when prices advanced 15, closing strong at the highest figures of the day. 1t wus cluimed by some that the market was heavily “short,” and a prominent trader, after selling fairly early and not finding it easy to depress values, commenced to cover. This started the ud- vance, and when the news from Washing- ton_was received tho market responded readily, causing quite a littie excitement. Offerings of corn were not large, while the demand from all_sovrces was compuratively light. The market opened rather firm uud prices were about from ige to ige higher, but a weaker fecling was developed and prices declined from %c to lgc, a moderate triding at the receding scale. ' During the intte part of the session a little moro steadiness prevailed una prices rallied and closed com- paratively steady. There ‘was u light trade in oats, but a stronger feeling, due mainly to sympathy with wheat, which carried prices up from 3goto Koin the faca of the fair selline and closed the murket steady at about the out- side figures, with a net gain of from Jsc to e “*The provision market was generally dull and drcoping. Therc was some recovery {rom the prices prevailing early in _the ses- sion, due to closing strength in wheat and corn, but the last trading was at the fol- lowing reductions in the current prices at the close yesterday.

NEW Yonk, Oct. 24,—The speculation on the Stock exghange today was on a scale of magnitude to which Wall swreet has long been a stranger. The pent up force held in check by the uncertainty of the financial situation. and which it was expected would not be given rein until the silver question was definitely solved, was unloosened by the Vanderbilt-Maxwell ‘combine in the coal stocks, The acqiusition of a Vanderbilt interest by the coal roads was looked upon as going far towara placing the shares of these compumies in a .position from which they might be taken out of the purely specu- lative list and given an investment churac- ter. When the fact became known that Wil liam K. Vanderbilt was already a large holaer of Lackawanna and was in touch with the Maxwell party in New Jersey Cen- tral the streev took @ great deal more for granted and at once figured out great futures for the stocks of all the coal roads. Reading was made a center of attraction and iarge blocks of thestock changed hands. The sales of these shares alone aggregated over 118,000 and were taken in heavy blocks. Lacka- wanua, which opened at a declmneor 1 per cent, fell off 3 per cent more on the early dealings, recovered 1% per cent. reacted 41{ ver ceat, ralliea 4% per cent and declined 1 per cont, closing at a decline of 81§ per cent from yesterday. New Jersey Central ovened at an advance of 1 per cent. but quickly declined 28/ per cent, closing 1§ per cent above the lowest quotation made and 13§ per cent below yesterday. Sugar was thé feature of the general list. While fairly active in the fore noon it was not until the afternoon that the great move- ment therein took place. Opening at last night's closing price, 973{. the stock grad- ually drobped to 97}, then woved up slowly to 993, receding to 98% at noon. Then came a very strong buying move- ment, professedly based on the certainty of the passage of the silver bill. As the shares moved toward par a remark of James R. Keene, made some time ago, that he would put the stock up to 100, was recalled, and that was taken as the probable limit of advancement, but the stock did not lag & moment on the century mark, but on brisk buying moved to 10414, an advance of 7 per cent from the low levet of the morning. Tnis great movement in Sugar was attended by considerable oxcitement. Sugar pre- ferred did not follow the variations of the common, but rose 2 per cent on light busi- ness. “T'he general market was irregular during the morning hours, but became strong in the afternoon. The chief advances were: Lead preferred, 53¢ per cent; Evansville & Terre Haute, 4 per cent; Pittsburg & Western preferred, 31§ per cent; St. Paul preferred and Minneapolis & St. Lowis common trust receipts, 2 per cen The Post says: The street was kept well advised today of the situation of affairs at Washington by means of frequent bulleting received by brokers and news agencies, and the reported surrender of tne silver demo- crats gave crial assistance to the upward movement in stocks, - The prospect of any movement on the repeal bill was hailed with general satisfac- tion, and had it not come at a time when the market was dominated by special controlling influences it would have had a more marked effect on the dullness. But the bull move- ment in stocks hold the attention in a large measure and a somewhat wild attempt to run up stocks on the strength of good news proved disastrous to those who engineered it ‘and causcd a bad break from the top figures at the close. The general feeling is that the situation at Washington is clearing and the effect on speculative values will be excellent, The following are the closing quotutions of the leading stocks on the New York ex- change today : Atchison 209 Adums EXpress... 100 | do prefd......

Cattle Trade Imprdves Somewhat—Hogs Brisk and Higher—Skerp Steady. 'TUESDAY, Oct. 24. Receipts of all kinds were fair today and for the two days supplies, compared with the first two days of last week, show an in- crease of about 2,000 cattle, 2,000 hogs and 2,000 sheep. The fresh supply of cattle was about the same as on last Tuesday, but . holdovs ran the figures up to not much short of 6,000 head. There was the usual sdarcity .of de- sirable beef cattle. Offerings included very few cornfed steers, either good or bad, and the westerns were largely mado up of fair to poor stock. There was a very good de- mand from the dressed beet men, and with encouraging reports from Chicago the mar- Ket was reasonably active and fully steady on all suitable offerings. Fair to very good 1,150 to 1,400-1b. cornfed steerssold readily at from $4.95 to $4.70, whilo western rangers sold largely at from 83 to $3.65. The movo- ment was tolerably brisk throughout, and a good clearance was effected, There was no particular change in the cow market. Between forty and fifty loads were offered for sale and buyers gathcred them in freely at full Monday’s prices, common to very gooa stock seliing at from $1.40 to &2.55, largely around $1.90 to $2.25. The calf market was indifferently supplied and prices were firmly held at from $1.75 to $4 for com- mon large to good venl stock. Rough stock at around $1.50 to §2.25 was about steady. The feeder market was a trifle dull, but good to choice stock sold at strong prices, while easier prices ruled on the ordinary grades, A good volume of ‘business was transacted and largely at from $2.55 to #3.15. Good to choice feeders are quoted at $3 to $3.50, fair to good at to §3, with common and inferior stuff at around §2 to $2.50. Representative sales: DRESSED BEEF, Av. _Pr. No. Av.

There were lots of good heavy and mixed hogs here, but the lighter weizhts were generally of rather in- ferior quality. Packers were good buyers, but the most active demand came from the fresh meat men, while the larger receipts and improved quality of the offerings orought out a good shipping demand and nearly 1,500 hogs were bought for eastern slaughterers. The popular price was $3.35, and from that up to $0.45 was paid for the better grades without regard to weight, while from $0.25 to $6.85 bought the poor to fair light and mixed packing grades. It did not take long to clear the pens, the market closing strong at the advance. Sales were mostly at from £0.30 to $0.40. as against from 0 to $0. Monday and from $06.25 on lust Tues- aay.
