CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET.
CHICAGO , March 18. [ Special Telegram to
the HKK | The wheat clique has cut its wis
dom tcctli , cot n new set of brokers , stopped
bulldozing the Mny option , and Is now , with
ngrcat deal of discretion , simply standing on
Its line nnd allowing thu surrounding mar
kets of the world to move up toward tlio
plane ot Chicago A nines. This lmpro\cment
In tactics Is .so innrked thnt there Is actually
n largo number of men who nro confident
that this Is nn Armour deal. The clear
ances from New York l.Vi.OOO bushels wcro
HOincwhat of n disappointment , but the for
eign markets wcro most encouraging. Will-
lam Dunn said thu cables rather Indicated
thnt Liverpool had turned , The whole woild
for n dny or so had gone on the hypothesis
that at Chicago wheat was about to collapse ,
and Instead of doing that It had put on n
healthier look than ever. At the opening
Fluid , Llndlcy fc Co , were liberal hellers.
Mllmlne , iiodkin & Co. wcro buyers. There
was for an hour active general trading at be
tween blj/ijb2e. ( Then tiatlo suddenly
dropped off. The clique homes were confi
dently picdictlng higher prices for the day.
By 1 o'clock May wheat was down to bOJjfr ,
notwithstanding all the surrounding markets
had shown extraordinary strenuth. The
reason was that the clique biokcrs had
no Inclination to Intorfeie. It Is
plainly the purpose of holdeis to get prices
fmck to their old time relative standing.
While New York advanced this maiket de
clined , and now It Is a fact that the old time
relations between prices at these two markets
nnueslored. The Juno option advanced to
within ' . { c of May to-day , while the spread
was 2o to the disadvantage of June a week
a'jo. Kcrshnw was reported a buyer at Mil
waukee , and fiom New York came thu story
that the Chicago clique had bought and \vrro
holdlnic more wheat than was actually In
Htoro there. The uncomfortable iccling
about trading In the .May option of wheat
has apparently disappeared. No commission
houses are refusing orders for May wheat
now nor are they demanding extraordinary
marginsIn corn the stock yaids crowd ot
bulls has nppaiently been routed , horse. loot
and dragoons. The May option was down to
IHWc by 1 o'clock , nnd tlio big reports of re
ceipts for the early part of next week promise
to send thn figures under 39e. Not ton &
Worthliuton say they have 1,500.000 bnsht'ls
* of cash corn to deliver for country customers
and the receivers generally nro sellers. Nat
Jones. N. B Iteam and Robert'WarrcnA Co.
wcro tree sellers of lard and ribs to-day. The
sales were set down as realizing ones.
On the afternoon board thu markets wcro
weaker and a shade lower. 1'rovlRlonn were
easier. Wheat for May sold at SOJtfjlblJtc ,

certainly moderate , all thincs con *
sldercd , and many persons wcro surprised
that there was not a repetition of Thursday's
big run. Tne demand was good nnd the
market was steady In all eases and generally
stroni ; . There were many sales of handy
desirable eattle at prices a shade higher. The
market on the whole was fairly active nnd
the market was In most eases as good as II
was Wednesday , though thcro was an
absence of the excitement which has char
aeterlzed that day's trading , for a while
lately. Exporters were doing nothlng.but for

FINANCIAL.
NKW YOHK , Marcn 18. | Special Telegran
to tho'BF.n. ] STOCKS There was * a remark
abln dearth of news to-day calculated to al
feet the price of stocks. The report that th
Baltimore & Ohio Imd been sold to the Cin
clnnatl , Dayton A Hamilton syndlcat
furnished the principal topic of conversatlo :
among brokers. In the absence of any we !
authenticated news In regard to the subjec
biokers were disposed to consider thut abou
the only thing about which there was n
question was the fact that the Baltimore .
Ohio road was for sale. The bears made th
point that money would ccitainly bccom
Fcarce within the next sixty days , but It wa
alleged that Gould had recently put a goo
deal of money into railroad stocks and , as
consequence , it was claimed that his Inllu
cnce would be In favor of easy money. Th
best Informed London firms asserted thntth
feel I iiz In London and on the continent wn
very bullish , and that people abroad woul
take at least 150,000 shares ot stock If the
could get them at present prices , llnilroa
earnings wore generally favorable and tli
expectation was that big earnings would I
the rule until the Inter-state commoice la'
wont Into effect The Denver & lllo ( .rand
earnings for the second week In March In
creased 924,500 , and tor the year to date tli
Increase wa * 1,000. At noon the mark *
was steady , the sales to that hour amountln
to 03,000 shares. Business was almost entire )
at a standstill durlnz the afternoon. Hook
ing Valley broke IK per cent and the thcor
most generally held was that brokers In tli
Interest of the management of that compan
wcro trying to unload a lot of stock. Tli
latest London quotations In American seen
Hies were lower and the sentiment' townri !
the close began to veer around to the bet
side. It was thought that prices would hav
to be let oft a point or two before there woul
bo any general activity. The total sales wci
about 140,000 shares.

BUTTKU Thcio 1ms been a very noticeable
falling elf In the rucepU "t choice bnltor dur
ing the past week. There is hardly any
country butter coming In thnt can bo graded
as strictly choice. The receipts of the poorer
grades are liberal nnd the market well sup
plied. The demand Is for choice butter nnd
poor butter will not sell very readily nnd
only when the better grades cannot bo ob
tained. The wai m WMther has a tendency
to bring out the poor qualities In the butter
nnd on that account poor butter does nut sell

week ago on account of the decline in the
eastern and western markets. The receipts
have been liberal all the week and stocks
have been moving fieely. The local demand
has been very good and the shippers have

heavy receipts the market has been kept
cleared up nnd In good condition. The first
of the week stocks were moving at 10 > f @llc ,
but the decline In other markets forced the
market dowu here and thu prevailing price is
now lOc.
