CHICAGO. April C. Another wave Of the
bull swell In the wheat market sent tlio price
up to 6I14C for May and CG'.ic ' for July , as
aglnst C3c and 6lc respectively at the
close of the market yesterday. The local
crowd started with the "sure thing" of "cop
pering" a bullish statement given out by 1 * .
I ) , Armour for publication. Crop news was
on tnp to suit any and all tastes. Some ol
the shrewdest and heaviest local speculators
Bold wheat short at the opening and tried to
buy back later. Corn and oats caught on
to the wheat boom. Provisions were strong
ljul not very active.
Wheat after the close of yesterday's scs-
Eton and until the opening of today's session
could scarcely bo restrained. On the "curb"
May was wanted at from C3'ic ' up to G3c
by such brokers as had Imperative buying
orders from country customers. When the
market opened this morning It was known
there had been a break of Ic per cental In
the prlco of wheat at San Francisco yester
day , which was ascribed to Indications of
rain on the Pacific coast. That brought out.
liberal offerings at the start here , but there
waa plenty of buying orders at the patno
time and the first transactions were Irregular
find from 63c to GS c. compared with G2"ic ,
to C3c at the close of yenterday's session.
Thnro was a heavy business done In the first
hour. Millions were wanted and there were
millions for sale. The price during that
time wobbled between from C2T4 to G3'/4c ' ,
with heavy offerings and takings. The In
fluence of the reported prospect of rain In
California kept Increasing , however , and the
market turned qulto heavy. Some of the
big local speculators piled the buyers with
short wheat. There was a gradual decline
In the course of the afternoon to HZ c for
May. July started with some trade at 65c
nnd. ono as high as G5'ic , but there was
much more for sale at C5c than could 1 > °
disposed of.Vhllo May was dragging at
about G2c , July sold at Glc. Chicago
receipts were SO cars , against 433 year
ago. Minneapolis reported 20S cars and
Duluth 71 cars , against 245 and -II cars re
spectively last ycnr. The local crowd , who
had worked all forenoon for a break , found
out that wheat was not plentiful under G2' c.
Fardrldgo commenced to buy at that price
and a general stampcdo of the shorts caused
the price to shoot up again to fiSUo for
May and to G5c for July. Not until fifteen
minutes of the end did the bullish sentiment
which underlay the market get full play ,
but In that short tlmo was expended the
pent up energy of a day of patient waiting
for an opportunity. May was Kent up with
u skip to GIVic and July to CGUc , with Gl'/jc
nnd GGc respectively , trading prices at the
close.
Corn was dull , but In the main strong ,
The estimated receipts for tomorrow being
for only 150 cars was ono reason assigned
for a rlso of about \ c , which occurred about
12:30 : o'clock. May opened nt 37c , as
against 37c at the close yesterday. There
was some selling early , which knocked ' , c
off the opening figures , but when wheat
firmed nn near the end of the session. SS'Ac
was reached. The great bulge with which
wheat wound up caused a panic to strike
the shorts In corn , and In a few minutes Mity
had mounted to 3Sc , and July 39c to
39$4c , which were the trading prices at the
close.
There was only a small business trans
acted In oats.
There was less activity In provisions than
for the two preceding days , but the market
was remarkably linn and the shorts con
tinued to take the limited offerings at the
higher prices asked today. Compared with
last night , May pork Is 12' c higher , May
lard Cc higher and May ribs 12c higher.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow : Wheat ,
60 cars ; corn , 150 cars ; oats , 100 cars ; hogs ,
21,000 head.

THUHSriAV , April G.
Receipts of. nil kinds continue light. So
far this week , compared with last , they show
a decrease of J.fiOO cattle niul nearly 600
hog ! ! , \vhllo there has been uu Increase u
about 1,500 sheep.
There were some COO fewer cattle re
cclvcil than on last Thursday , while In view
of the'recent sharp uilvnnco In prices deal
era nalnrally looked fur n more liberal sup
ply. .Seller.- * found condlllona very much to
their liking , and asked and obtained very
coimldornbly higher prices. The favorable
tone to eantcrn advices Infused new life
and courage Into speculative buyers am'
buyers for eastern butchers were also early
In the saddle. Local IIOUHCH could not af
ford to see all the cattle go to outsiders
and their buyers were not far behind the
others. The result was about the liveliest
market of the year and ono that wus verj
satisfactory , looked at from the seller's
standpoint. As has boon the case all week
prices were a trifle uneven. There were
Isolated cases where cnttlo brought very
little more than Wednesday , whllu In a few
Instances sales showed pretty close to nOn
-On advance. On an average prices nilci
lOc to IGc higher , and by the middle ot the
forenoon trade was over , the markc.t clos
ing up strong.
Cows sold MroiiHrr In sympathy will
steers. The supply was rather limited , am
while good fat stork sold In many cases
Go to lOc higher , most of the stuff simply
went at good strong prices. There was u
very respectable showing ofalves : , nm !
prices averaged up fully steady. The sup
ply of rough stock was comparatively lim
ited , and boilers had no dllllculty In getting
a little better prices.
Business 'In ' stockers and feeders was
rather dull , llegular dealers all have lib
eral supplies on their Imnds , and as they
llnd the country demand somewhat re
stricted they are but Indifferent and often
bearish buyers of the fresh receipts. There
was quite u little- Improvement In the trade
today , compared with what It has been ,
and good stuff was In better request. Good
to choice feeders are quoted at $3.0003.35 ;
fair to good at $2.7G5T3.00 , and lighter , com
moner grades at from $2.75 down. Hcpre-

HOOS The general market was lOc higher
and the close lOc to liic higher than Wednes
day. Supplies were very moderate , provi
sions were strong , eastern markets better ,
Armour and Squlro and n horde of specula
tors still hunting lingo and compelling local
packers to keep up with the procession or
quit. The market was Blow to open , but
most of the early trading was at $4.G5 and
$4.70 , or fully u dlmo higher than Wednes
day. As the morning advanced the keen
competition and free buying caused a further
stiffening of values and the later trading
was largely at $4.70 and $4.75 , or lOc and
15c higher and the mnrkct closed active am !
strong at UK-EC figures , with the pens empty
by 10 o'clock. Considerably over half of the
hogs sold In the $1.70 notch , with as many
sales nlmvo an he ! ' K that llgurc. On yester
day the hogs sold mostly ut $4.G5 and $ I.CO ,
while the bulk nf thu trading a week ago
today us ut 11.CO and $1.65 , . Representative
