-t THE OMAHA DAILY 'BEE:!" THURSDAY,* JUNE 19, 1902, CoormerTy COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL Bkyrooket Bpeoulation in Oorn Pit is Para- mount Feature of Market. CEREAL SHOOTS UP, BREAKS AND TUMBLES ‘Whent After Liberal Trade Cloves Higher, but Oats Unimportant and Values Reccde—Provinions Dull, but Absorb Gains. CHICAGO, June 18.—~Corn executed a high and lofty tumbling feat today. Nerve- racking excitement over the corner in July options ruled the day. From the opening of the pit the Wall street cliqu llgovml prices In such an astonishing man- ner that the girations exhibited were suc as made yesterday's erratic ups and dow look like any ordinary ‘“smoking room day.” Every natural condition inherent to the pits was ignored. It was a battle for milllons, with cratty men on each side. Today it suited the big manipulators to allow prices to jump skywards for a time and then it as oddly sulted them to push them down with remarkable rapidity. The range of July corn—and that was all that was of importance on 'change today—con- sisted of an upturn of ke at the opening, @ slump of 3%e from the top price and a slight recovery from the bottom figure. oJm pits naturally felt the influence of such pranks, but most speculators in other commodities’ did not allow their judgment to be marred, and In the end July corn glosed 2 down, July wheat %c higher and July oats Yc lower. Provisions closed 54 e higher, 5t "t ‘niart the corn ghorts, fearful of a ‘repetition of yesterday's rocket-iike ad- yance, bid wildly for corn to cover thefr account. The big bulls came openly In the pit and bld against them. In a trice July, which closed yesterday at 67%c, made simultaneous sales at 6Sc and 6dc. This was too good a price for longs to with- stand. Men who had loaded up with stuft around 62 or under let the crowd have in lentiful lots. The Gates clique tried to ide its hand, but the crowd soon learned titles for that it was unloading large qu profits. The little shor! Bet out of the market with losses, even on a declining market. It seemed to be the intention of the big bulls then to squeeze ut the small bulls who had ‘“‘tailed” after. $h'order to do this stuff was thrown on the market in big lots. Several milllon bushels were unloaded on the shorts at fancy prices and a considerable amount of long stuft that was wold near top fig- ures was taken in by Influential parties on the slamp. Pursuing such tactics It took the bull contingent a comparatively short time to push prices down 3%c from the top price, until July sold at 6%c. Fluctuations of ordinary magnitude ~were considered ridiculously small today, All traders were nervous and excited. The pit had practi- cully all the Interest on the board. At the close July was still congested, but com: a ratively weak, 2 under yesterday, Beptember' was strong early on't July bulge, but sold off on general liquida- tion, The story was going the rounds that Beptember {8 to be given a whirl similar to that now experienced by the nearer d Uvery. At the close experienced trade: did not_know what to think of the condi- tlons. There h been talk of Tbe corn, but against this is arrayed the possibliities of large contract grading by e e ‘vators. In three days W,&o\ml els of col tract stuff have been made. Weather re- ports were not good and bad news of the crops was coming in. fle«lgtl today were 219 cars, 21 of contract grac Wheat had a fairly active day, with a beral trade, but the feeling was nervous nd_tense in sympathy with the congested condition of the corn pit. The advance in corn at the opening had something of a refiection in an advance In wheat and the later slump was l:cnmg‘mled also by a followhng weakness in wheat. In the end, howeve: ural conditions prevailed to some extent. The impression ined round that weather conditions abroad have n very wet and cool and cr:ra as a result have suffered. There was also more ‘wet weather in our winter belt. These in- uences, in spite of liberal receipts, helped uly wheat in an opening advance of %@ c, at , and pushed it to T2%c. B‘K‘ lember 'll-th'lcll had been bought rather freely by influential interests, was unloaded to the extent of about 2,000,000 bushels and in consequence broke lc.” This depressed July to Ti%c. Late in the ses- welon 200,000 bushels of cash wheat were ‘worked here for export and the seaboard reporied 23 loads taken for the ?QO. This_caused talk of bad w tance and England again, and improved the demand. July closed firm, %c up, at 72%@72%c. Local "receipts were cars, § of contract grade. Minneapolls and Duluth [Teported /4 cars, making a total for the three points of 311 cars, against 188 last ‘week and 311 a year ago. Primary recelpts were 692,000 bushels, compared with 432,000 bushels last year. Beaboard clearances in ‘wheat and flour equalled 17.,000 bushels. ‘Trade in oats was small and unimportant. Natural conditions were somewhat bullish, but the slump In corn took oats down a little ways with it, and there was very little recovery. Cash business continued and wet weather was reported work- ng against crop conditions. Receipts were liberal at 113 cars, but the contract grade ‘was small. July sold from %%c to 88%c closed 3c down, at 3. Provisions were very dull, very good strength. Manipulation still con- tinued at the hands of packers, but the manipulators put out a good argument for the advance, in that the cash stuff was but showed however, it rallled on export business and off steady and unchanged.

There was little news to account for the rising ten- dency.

Cows and heifers were mostly lower unl good, with common lots here and there quoted 5@i0c oft. Thin stock is sell- ing lower from day to day, the |upgly of grassers increases. The decent grades Weré picked up in fair season, but inferior cows and helfers sold very slowly. ‘Bulls, stags and veal calves came under the general decline also, and the market was more or less of a drag. y feeders, if showin; Tllllt)'. moved reasonably freely at practically unchanged prices.
