The Chicago wheat market passed through
an unusual day'.s transactions. Trade took up
HIP cri-at Dull market where It was broken off
nt tin- close yesterday , and tmirko'l prices up
very sh.irply. What , might havn taken a
wlnili' 'I ly or a wholb week under other
circumstances was accomplished In a few
iiInutes. , Tlii-io was a great rush at the start
by follows who were short , or had no who it
aiid wanted some badly. The firmness of

bull feeling. Mnnoapoll.s idvlcfs were unite
bullish on Hour. Shorts and bulls and outside
orders all conspired to foivu prices at the first ,
in iniont. The niiirkut opened with a rush at
t.i9 : tn fi.uu'i for Mny , and 11.07'i to JI.08
for July , Unyors of yesterday saw
an excellent place to unload wheat ,
and there was very free selling
by Dunn & Co. . llutchlnson , S. V. White k Co. ,
Baldwin & I'nrnuiii , and many o'hcr house ! .
Now York also sold wheat hero. This caused
nshatii drop In prices to ll.OSH for May and
11.00's for July. In tlio hour whloli followed
there was a Ilttlo rally to II.Osjj and ? I.07'S ' for
M ly and July , ai\d a suJ.md drop to fl.CH'fi '
and } l.l1.i. ( At this point a second buying
wave struek the market , helped on by later

holding pretty llrm around fl.OO and { LOT for

Hour. Toward the clew news was less positive
and the market showed signs of subsiding , but
prices hold llrm. A few minutes before the
close all calculations wore upset by the sud
den upturn In prices on the I'aclfle coast dis
patches. May sold up to $1.1055 and July to
M.03'6. The close of the wheat market was
even more sensational than of yesterday. The
price of May was forced up to $1.11 and July
to $1.09 with tbo close of i o under at $1.10 ? ;
and ll.OS'j , or again from last night at the
best prices of : i ? o for May and Wto for July.
April was ( [ noted at $ I.OS'i ' to $1.10 ! $ . On the
curb thu excitement In wheat continued ,
1'rlvllosos In May for Saturday sold atfl.USW
nnd tl.iau , anil July tit 51.0CU and Jl.lOJi at II
o'clock ,
The corn market was greatly unsettled.
There wore quick turns both up and
down. There Is a disposition among many
moderate traders and scalpers to keep
near the shore. They buy quickly on breaks
and soil quickly on bulges. As on previous
days , the strongest point In the market was
made on cash demand , and when No. 3 corn
sold above 74e. The receipts hero wore 20i ;
ears , and for Saturday the estimate Is 210 cars ,
showing a gradual Increase. This had Ilttlo
Influence In the pit. At the start May sold at
7.l3 < o to73ic ? , or loover the hlpli closing price
yesterday. July sold atG9Sc ! to Kl'io. At the
Riimo moment there was a reaction to ? J'.ie In
May and CSHo In July , with the first drop In
wheat. The second advance , due to the lu-
lluence of Hample trade , was oven stronger
than the early movement , and prices went Hy
ing away above any former figures , going to
74e for May amlfiOUo again for July , l-'roo
offerings put prices baek to MO ! for May and
GDc for July. On the third bulge before
1 o'clock prices moved up to 7.1'io for Slay
and ffl'-io for July. At the close thu extreme
prices for the day for the leading months In
corn were : May. 72'io ' to 74c ; July , fiS o to
CO'.iC. The last few minutes of the session
brought fiou selling and less support , and
prices dropped back to 7-Je for May and ( W , ! c
for July at the close. This loft May ? io ami
July % c under the close of last night. In the
deferred months August sold for fi"3iu and
OMJc. and Suptuinburat .t'iie ; and ( VS' c , both
mtmllis closing at thu low points for the day.
Oats followed the example set by wheat and
corn and ruled stronger. May delivery opened
at Miic , sold down to fitUic , advanced to J73.io
and closed finally at57'8e. ' or ! io above yester
day's closing price. Juno sold from .MiHe , to
Diii1. tofii&u , to W o at the close. July started

Compared with the grain markets the pro
vision trade was quiet. The highest prices
for the session were made at once after the
opening , when the advance over thoelo- yes
terday was ir > c to 'JOo In pork and 2' o to5o In
other products. The close , compared with
Thuisday's closing , pork was f c lower for
May and steady for July ; lard was ' 'iio lower
for May and 2'Jo higher for July. The action

Koenlutsiit the cloven primary pnlnls won ;

and may turn ellhei way with Kior.t nnldity.
In com at the onmlng ihtiro was a iroit du-
slro on the part of shorts lo oovur , showing
tliu great buoyaitey and Mdllirj at 71'so. ' July
respiindud to the e.voltcment also , the market
belnK very nervous and the Hurt nations at
times very wild. The casU dom mil contluuos
to set the pai'o for the futures and we see no
immediate pnispt-ut for n lot-no In the ship-
pin ( 'emaiid. At the close , however , the.
market seemed ilooldu'lly tami- and there
were liidlcathuis that thuro had been very
heavy reill/.lu : on this morning's Inline. O.its
opened wildly e\elted , M.iy selling as bluh as
fifiie. The trade during the day has boon

The market has shown largely Increased ae-
llvlly. 1'or some riiiisdii Iho ouniniUslon
honsi s ropieMMillns an outside business have
been heavy sellers of long ntnir today , most
of It going Into the bands of local bulls and
uackers. If corn should weaken materially It
may break provisions a little , but we con
sider them a purchase on all soft spots.
Konnett-lloiiklns tn H. A. MuWhorlcr There
has been another volcanic eruption today and
shorts can sympathl/.o with the urowd caught
at 1'ompoli. Some time ago wheat cables were
only moderately strong nnd when thu market
opened I'/.c higher It was u grunt temptation
to bears who eoveicd yesterday to put out a
fresh line , which they did. There was also
conslilerablo leall/.ing by longs , who had good
ptollts , but their oll'erlngs were absorbed by
shorts. Under liberal s lies prices gave way
le to I'ie. but at the bottom fresh buying
orders weio encountered and on a show of
strength shorts tried to get back their
wheat and their frantic bids forced prices up
nearly i'e In n few moments , longs accepting
jnoflts on the bulge. Closing cables shows
less strength than expected. the bears renewed
their assaults , hammering the market down
about , a cent , when the bulls again came In
the front and put up prl-'os U cents , closing
them at the top. Them Is one factor In our
market which should not be overlooked im
porters at the sea coast have secretly sold to
foreigners for summer shipment a vast
amount of option. In the aggregate running up
In the millions. It Is Improbable exporters
would accept such orders without hedging In
the markets , Chicago and Diiluth helm ; the
only points where stocks are liberal. Their
purchases would naturally be made hero. In
this way a very considerable part of our
slocks have been taken out of the market.
Western parties who have both cuimotsafuly
rely on the foreigners whohold tholrcontrncts
and become solleisus they doubtless will If
crop prospects should become as favorable as
anticipated , That , however , U not a matter
to be determined very soon , and meanwhile
the bulls will have a llrm grip on the market
and dictate prices. The market closed
amid considerable excitement and It
would be r4llll < .Mtlt to give the exact figures.
Corn and oats shared In the general tumult
today opening wild , strong and oxeltotl but
the pace proved too active and a sharp de
cline followed , There was another rally that
carried prices to the top but liberal realizing
sales by llutchlnson , Hoyden nnd other holders
held prices In chock und corn closed compara
tively easy. In provisions theru wns a mod
erately active nervous market not receptive
of the buoyant feollnz In grain but Irrognlar
on account of It. The close was steady only
In sympathy with grain.

NEW YOIIK , April 17. [ Special Tolezrarn
to Tun HKU.J The report cabled over yester
day to the ollect that the I'rcnch government
was about to request other European govern
ments to suspend the duty on cereals before
August caused u great commotion among the
grain men hero and In Chicago , and wns also a
matter of much Interest to bankers and
dealers In railroad securities. Wlillo no ono
apparently believes that such action will betaken
taken , the fact that It has been oven sug
gested confirms what wo Americans , from a
sordid point of view , have boon hoping to bo
the ease that the Europeans are liable to bu
In sore straits for brcadstulfs this .summer.
Of course the suspension of the duty would
mean a tremendous loss of revenues to the
covornmont taking such a course. No Euro
pean government can all'ord to cut down their
revenues tlrs summer. That such a thing Is
oven hlntiul at shows that an oven greater de
mand for cereals Is expected over there than
.what . America had supposed.
It scorns strnnso that the manifest absurdi
ty of the statement did not Immediately Im
press Itself on everybody. In the llrst placu
tJront Britain has no duty on cereals. In the
pocontl place , why In the name of common
sense should the Fronoh government forward
requests to the llrltlsh parliament and the
Herman relchstagV What business Is It of
Kriincu what Uioat llritaln and ( lermany do ?
&IIDPOSO the United States should wish to sus
pend the duty on rullned sugar. Would It for
ward the request to some foreign countries to
do likewise ! ? It requires only a moment's
thought to see the absurdity of the thing , but
though It Is a rnio ana highly prl/cd commod
ity , the solemnity with which the small
fry ofall street swallows anything and
everything In the way of absurd rumors
thrown to them , and greedily IISKS for more ,
Is a sure temptation to thu brainy stock ma
nipulator nnd the practical joker.
There was a brilliant opening to the railway
shares on the Now York stock oNChango to
day , and notwithstanding the fact that a fur
ther K 00ooo In gold coin was ordered from
the sub-treasury for shipment to Europe
thoontlro list of prominent stocks moved In
an upward direction , lluslne.ss assumed ( juttu
lively proportions right at the start , and tbo
demand was good all around. At the end of
llrst hour ( speculation wns much loss
active than at the commencement , and
the market wait about steady. The .specialities
for the most part were llrm and on the rally ,
hut transactions In them were nut heavy. The
Industrials as a rule displayed no particular
animation In the early sales , hut never
theless a llrm tone wax In attend
ance and the leading Issues registered
