8 THE OMAHA DAILY JJEE: TUESDAY, APTHL 23, 1901. COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL , Spirit of BilHihntsi Run lUmpaat in Daj'i Grain Market. PHILLIfS PROMINENT IN CORN TRADING Uhml Market flronrfer Than for Many Weeks OntK Strong: and Ao tlw Throughout Session Provisions Sternly. (MIK'AGO, April 22.-nulllhnes was rampant In tlio wheat nml cgrn markets today. Nearly tlio wholo gamut of news iifrccllng thoso markets worked for higher prices. Corn, after un exciting any, dur ing which price were over the highest prevlnJH level, closed with nn ndvnnco or sc. while wheat neutered a closing bulge of I'sc Outs closed a.c higher una pro lfloriK practically unchanged. Iti tho corn pit Phillips' calling In of Jlny corn enmu to the fore after fort night, during which It merely kept the market ncrvoiiK. but comparatively tinrrow nrotitKl 41c for May. t'p to today thu open Iiik r tho hull leaders' Hint lino had been gi initially diminishing, while that unH'r i over of brokers had been spreading. This wni merely conjecture, howover.for at times when thu market deemed Inclined to boom there ueto other Indications that were working to make it sudden bulge. Ills announcement thnt ho would take In every bushel oITered hlm on .May contructs brought thu paramount Importance tit Phillips' contltued bullish attitude forcibly before Irm tiudiis. .May t It Is estimated thcro will bo :t,(jx,0W bushels of contract torn which can be delivered to him. but even this would not satisfy hi claim, ts shorts have guaranteed to deliver him be twren 6,(.f"i and 7,i.0"J bushels nil illlloual. That shorts will bo uble to Bet that amount heie for delivery before the Inst of .May In of course food for debate. The fact that country offerings last nlBht weiy practically nothing und that the n iclpts today wiro but eighty-six earn, with only clKht earn crndhiB contract, had much to do with alarmliiB the gang who havo on their shoulders the burden of raking t til., corn from country crib, or settling with Phillip. They Hcrambted In wild lashlou toduy for tho prlvllego of tnkitiB the loss already thclrH, rather than stand by their buiih in the hope thut he and his lollowlliB would llnd themselves In deep water before Slay I. To make his position more Hccura It In Raid Phillips already bus considerable corn ready for shipments cuhL It wns a noteworthy fact today thut while the price level nearly the wholo Reunion was hlKhcr thun nt any previous stage of (ho crop, very little was sold far from the top. I 'lit III h Hlnrted the excitement by blddlnB at the opening. Slay opened 'WAc higher at IIH'i IHie and bounded up to 1814 UurliiB the forenoon. At this price every bull In the pit hnd a good prollt in sight. Their sales caused a reaction to Pic, but HhortH absorbed everything with such avidity that tho market reacted sharply and closed 2o hlnhcr at 4fi?e. July sold between M74o and 15c, and closed lie higher at 4tc. Trade In wheat wns nctlve. The market for It waa the broadest In week, the ac tivity being sustained with scarcely nn In terruption. Kor the llrst time In days tho favorable wvuthcr and liberality of receipts were treated with contempt. sharp ad vance ut Liverpool, hulllsli world's statis tics and tho prospect of a fair visible de create were Influential nt tho start, Slay opening iiC in ?ie at 7lliu to 71c. The lemund was Kcnernl from outsiders nnd local shorts, iih well ns rnulldeut lonss. During the forenoon .May climbed to 72Jii additional Incentive liavinB been found in reports of a strong continental demand In thu corn strength, and In the visible llfiiircH which showed n greater falling off than hHd been looked for, Realizing Bales on ii liberal scale caused a reaction to 72t4o near the end of the session, but the market rallied, tlrm. and closed iy.u higher ut rJtic. July wheat shared la the ac tivity and closed nt 72Tc, compared with Haturday's close at 7lc. Exporters re ported forty-seven loads taken for ex port. Seabitiril clearances In wheat and Hour.

April 22.-The extraordinary nctlvlty of tho speculation Is witnessed by the record of tho aggregate sales for tho day, which rose again to 2,:M,5i) shares, compared with tho previous record Friday of 2 193.100 shurcs. The character of the market showed a marked change from that of the latter part of lost week, when the tendency was distinctly upward throughout the list. There was great vnrlety In the speculation nnd extreme Irregularity In the movement of prices all day, and there was u resumption of the feverish tone, which had broken In en tho present extended ndvnnco In prices nt various times. It was obvious that there wns very heavy prollt-taklng going on In stocks which have showed tho greatest strength recently, but the bulls hnd the situation fairly well In hand through the early part of tho day and the process of shifting the speculation from one set of biockh io nnoiner, wnien nnu gono on in constant succession nil through the period 1,1 1 inu bi-ui. leu iu un kuiiik oil III a nor- ninl manner.

The most prominent names are tho Itothschllds, Morgans, Cnssel, Wernhor nnd Uelt and It Is snld that the wholo Issue hns already been over-subscribed. It Is believed hiso, however, thnt the uuhscrlbers will be disappointed, slnco so many of the- holders of the old consols have sold out In anticipation of the new Issue, that the price of the existing con sols has been depressed to 9IV4. In con sequenco of this the premium of the new Issue, which at the opening wns 3 per cent, declined to P4 per cent. There was a sharp brenk In rnllronds, which was ac companied by some .talk of the floods, which affected particularly the Atchlsons, Krles and Norfolk & Westerns. After that there was 11 general partial recovery In the street, under the leadership of a fresh spurt In Chicago. Milwaukee & St. Paul. The strongest feature was Southern Pa clllc. which was bought on a tip from New ork. The bank Is sending out i25,Wio In gold to Ilermuda.

"I would like to say something In regard to a recent editorial In Tho Bee on tho subject of palutcrs wages and tho employ, mcnt of old and Incompetept workmen," said W. II. Bell, business agent of tho painters' union. "The editor deprecates tho fact that the high wages paid' to work men tend to drive the old man and tho poor workman from tho flold, leaving nono in poiltlon lo work except tho joung, tho strong and tho highly trained mechanic. "The union agrees with the editor to a certain extent and men over tho ago of 50 years aro permitted lo work for 6 cents per hour less than the standard scale. After a man Is 56 ho can work for any wages ha can secure. We have men In this city beyond tho maximum ngo who draw the standard wages, but the employer Is not forced to pay them by the rules of tho union. "In regard to the 'unskilled' mechanic, if such a ono exists, I will say wo don't want him. lie may bo a good man In othor ro spects and entitled to earn a living. Ho may be able to do certain work on n Job of painting, but when ho Joined the union ho took oath that he was a competent work man. If ho proves to bd Incompetent ho should not work at tho trade. If he must work at the trado ho should go whero his work lb In demand. It has been charged that tho unions try to forco employers to pay as much to poor workmen as to good ones. If an employer Is willing to let a poor workman fill tho placo of a good niau ho deserves no better fate. "The union mnkes provisions for the aged nnd decrepit, so they aro not forced to work at any price unless they dcslro to do so, and tho competent men who All tho high-class positions where poor workmen aro not needed are tho ones who provldo tor tno aged."
