The Keene Telegram Belief I'm Chicago
That it Was n shYewd Bu .insss.B s.BOdge.

New YORK, March 8.-At the Produce Ex-
change to-day the principal topic OF CONVEX
sation has been the alleged forgery OF Keenes
order to Fisher Il Co., OF Chicago, his agents,
In reference to the sale OF 100000 bushels OF
wheat Although IL created little or no excite
ment yesterday, red spring No.
fell two cents; 1t reacted on the opening price
of to-day, before the close of the market. No.
2spring wheat was offered this morning at
110, but only 100 was bid, and there were no
sales. No. 2 red wheat cash was offered from
118 to 119, the bidding closely approaching
that point; the sales reached several Thousand
bushels. No. amber, cash, was quoted at
115L to 1T, and No. white cash, at 114% to
1171% The latter grade showed an advance
during the day of nearly two cents, while
other grades advanced Il to u cent. There
was an increase OF frmness but the sales were
not heavy.
A telegram was received by New York cor
respondents OF Fisher 65 Co. this evening,
stating that the house had suffered no loss
whatever by reason Of the Keene forgery.
They were able to dispose OF large part OF
their supposed order without breaking the
price, and they repurchased from the lowest
figures up. MIR. BocOck, Mr. Keene's stock
broker has offered q reward OF $4,000, and
Keene Is said to have named much larger
figure for the detection of the criminals. III
the president Of the Chicago Board Of Trade,
he said, would investigate who had been the
large sellers OF the last two or three days,
and the large buyers OF yesterday, that might

tions as to the vast quantity OF wheat he has
on hand, he had not proposed to do anything
with the wheat until the opening OF navi-
cation. AS there was great change in the
price Of wheat yesterday, somebody is sup
posed to have made an immense sum OF
money.
A Chicago special says that the opinion OF
the best Informed men in that city that Fisher
81 Co. were caught In a trap and sold Keene' s
wheat on bogus authority is not worth 2 mo-
ment's consideration. The truth is the Keene
party desired to close out the market which
they had bulled, having bought at an aver
age OF eighty-four in December, and the mar
ket having reached over ninety-eight, and
there being doubts as to the capacity OF the
market to go further coupled with the fact
that the 2,5OO,OOO bushels which Keene then
bought had run up fully five cents In ware.
house charges and insurance, 1t was deemed
most advisable to close out when an average
of six cents bushel profit could be realized
This has been done. Keene disposed OF near
ly 100000 bushels, realizing profit of about
$500, 600 on the same, but in doing this the
Keene clique overreached themselves.
