I ! 6 THE OMAHA DAILY -WEDNESDAY. : . MARCH 20 , 18M , COMMERCIAL AM FINANCIAL May Wheat Was on the Bulge Yesterday Worse than Even IT WAS QUITE A FEVERISH MARKET lly Shorn Win Moil Pronounced lit the lny Tim Clique Wu Jncllni'd to llo Very CntCAno , III. , March 28-May wheat was on the mil''o today worse limn over. It was a feverish market with frequent ( tuetimtlons , the extremes covering u range of over 24c. ! The closing price Is 1'io ' higher than on the duy before. July made 5 ( ailvnnco. * I'orn was helped by thu stri'iigth In wheat and closed with a gain for the day of ? iC. 1'roviMons weie dull mid did not change much. 1 * . rhaps the inoit alnrmlng Incident for the idiorts was the report that a train load of wheat sent here from Minneapolis and guar anteed to Inspect No. 2 , with thu exception of llviirnrimlvici ] the grade. This di couiaged shorts who had idled on getting wheat out- ldo to 111 ! their short sales hero and made some of Iliciu desperately discouraged , ( . 'aides weie iilfo reported higher and the clique also seemed less Inelhn'il to supply the short * with wheat , even on the sharp bulges. It was Iho peneral Impression that the clique was more Inclined In he aggressive now than at any time slnci- the deal was talked of. May at the opening was weakened by mild weather and the Increase early of 1.5(10,0(10 ( ( liu. in the amount on M-CHII piissage. but almost l-nmedl- utely It began to advance , outside shorts do ing a largo amount of buying , the norlhwest und SI Louis being In Ihii lead. lluylng by shorts was mn-t pronounced late In thu day In addition lo this , Ivggleston.one of the central Humes In the clique , came In lit the close as a bidder and the price left oir w ! th u sharp snap at the M-ry lop for lie day. fioilhweslein houses sent vigorous Kicks heie against unjust exactions In the Chicago grad ing. This Is very Important at piesent , as the outside markels have relied on their wheat grading heie to fill short sales. Of course , II Isnaluialto llyat the newgraln Inspector and make charges , but the traders llo not believe that there Is any connection between the grading bureau and the hull clique Inteiested In preventing a Mood of con tract grade wheat to this market. Chicago receivers were found on the floor who acknowledged that the sciews ale being turned a little lighter on the northwestern wheat and that If the same wheat had come In small lots from country points It would grade' No. 2 without a question. The opening for May delivery was from Ic to l' ' c lower than the closing ( Igures of yester day , but the prices were advanced Irregularly 2'.o ' , ruled steadier and the closing was about lnc higher than yesterday. July varied but slightly. Theie. was little doing In corn. Prices were confined within a narrow range and touched the lowest point In the crop. Tlie day's quo tations showed a good profit for the shorts und In many Instances this was taken anil a fractional recovery lesulled. There was a rood trade and a firmer feeling In oats , owing f o , sympathy with corn and to buying by hhoris. Theio was also a liberal trade In the way of changing from n-ar to distant months.

In the provision pit trading was limited , ( lie market being practi cally Deserted a purl of the time.

The stock market was quiet again today , but a llrm undertime continues to characterize thu dealings In the general list owing to the easy working of thu money market , the fulling oT ( of gold shlpmcnu and the improvement reported in the earnings of. the railways. These lullusucoj Und touiaku many ( if the nrofcMlonnts who have hereto fore occupied a passive position take a more hopeful view of Iho situation and pun-hiiM-i for their account are chlelly responsible for the rl e In certain stock . On the other hand the old bear combination of which Calnmlck lithe accredited head con tinues to feel the market for weak spots and today Dmtllliiitaml 1'attlefeedlug , New KIIK- lanil and Heading were raided with a good deal of success. Distilling and C.attlefeedlnn _ W to I the decision rendered In favor of the company In the so called "feeder" ease. The device Is u ed chiefly by railways or more particularly In connection with the trolley system. His estimated that there was an enormous gain In the way of royalties by reason of thu decision. Manhattan Jumped from IOUU to 17H ( , but declined to lli'J'i ' when it became known that HID rapid transit , commission had adjourned without action , t'nlled States Ituhher dropped 4'i percent to 51. with a rally lo 52. Jersey Central advanced l'i percent to 12UU and ru- ceded to 120. The general list Improved ! < to 1 per cent , with Chicago ( las , Lickawanna and National Cordage In the lead , nut subse quently lost a part of the Improvement. The western railways and Sugar and Coidago and Western Union were noticeably firm. Thu dealings weru quite moderate , only 20),030 Mmro-i changing hands , LM'cd stocks figured for 181,225 aiidimllstcd for 1U.H24. The mar ket cloved steady In tone for a majority of the leading shares , In Its Wall street review today the Pos says : Little by little the confusion of thu Heading's "deal" In New Kiiglaml railway slocks Is finding light. Thu receivers have , In deed , denied the bondholders' counsel thu privilege of examining the Heading's books. hut It may be quite safely assumed that hail they granted It tint company's private ac counts would fall fo tell the whole story. The personal quarrel In yesterday's meeting of tin ) llnance commltteu serves as a klndof a sidelight. Mr. Wharton Marker being driven to bay by thu faction now controlling that concein , wlorted with an exposure of Presi dent Karle'sollli'lal methods. In the name of the finance committee , so Mr. Marker charges HIII president bought 3,1100 shares of New KiiRland stock at 4i ) and Mild It later at a loss of $35.000 to $11.000. It Is duly explained from Philadel phia today that this New England stock was bought at 38 a few days before the books closed and that the purchase was made for tlio Heading company , Whether It has slncii hi'en sold I hu olliclal apologists of today neglect to mention. The reader's mind will therefore be left to one of two ngreeablu alternativeIther the Heading's financial agents , uslmr their share holders' money , took n "llyer" In New England slock on I heir own account and lost $35onl ) In the operation , or else the Heading Its-elf , a week after Its confession of Imnkiuptey , re sumed the margin slock speculations which hail alieady ruined It.
