far ejnickar than most traders were expect

notice of sea wat without limit, wheat
values made an Instantaneous sheer descent

Tension at the outset In tho wheat pit ap
peared ta be oi a nerva-racklog character,
seldom, if ever equalled on 'Change in Cbl
cago. Every foot of standing room from
the top atp down to. the center of the
closely packed .crowd waa occupied, and
scorns or brokers were literally standing on
tip toes, eager to sell at tba first clang of
tha gong. Tha strain of tha wait for the
signal proved too great to bo altogether
wuiistood and just before tha bell sounded
one perspiring trader shrieked. "Sell May
at 46- In tha bedlam that followed this
first offer tha opening bell received not
the siigntast attention. May wheat, in
which the chief iaterest centered and which
had closed yesterday at $1.71 01.714
crashed down to $1.66 and there was no In
itial sala recorded higher than $L63, lust 2
cents below the earliest offer that was
heard.
Selling on a tremendous acaia continued
unabated In wheat for about five minutes,
but then the pressure began to slacken a
little and the market, though fluctuating
violently for the next quarter of an hour,
was less one-sided. peneral expectations
mai ina utmost aeciine wouia noi greauy
exceed 10c a bushel had proved wrong by
more than 6c, but was now making itself
felt as a steadying influence. Further sta
bility resulted also from wholesale prom
taking by traders who of late had been
plunging heavily on the bear side of the
market Another Influence toward tha
restoration of comparative con Ode nee was
the announcement that after having been
tied up over night the traffic In and out
of New Tork harbor had boon resumed.
In later dealings the nervousness of the
wheat crowd was renewed by reports that
railway embargoes were spreading and by
Washington advices that a break in dip
lomatic relations with Germany was not
unlikely. At no time during the session,
however, was there a return of tho demor
alisation which characterised the opening,
when at the worst of the collapse tne mar
ket was down 38o a bushel from the
maximum jsuropean war price nere, fi.nb
for May.
Some Idea of the magnitude of the Inter
ests affected by today's violent setback In
prices may be gained from estimates cur
rent tonight that a single firm here has
sold short within the last few weeks
nearly 20,000,000 bushels of wheat. Another
concern was said to have purchased alone
2.900.000 buaneia toaay.
Corn and oats gave way and rallied in
line with wheat. The fact that neither of
the coarse grains is exported to nearly as
great a degree as areadsturis prevented
such sensational action as was shown by
tho more expensive cereal. Trading was
unusually active, but outside of the first
half hour tha changes 1b price were not ex
traordinary.
