CHCAGO, Jan. 2.-The day has been one Of
abnormal excitement on Change but the
| interest was confined to the wheat and pre-
| vision pits. The other markets showed very
| little life. May wheat rose to S515c on the
| regular board, scared to Soc on the afternoon
| board, but fell of again rapidly, but steadied
| and clos ID at S5GS51sc. On the curb after tile
| close calls went to S614lGS615c, while February
| sold at S41sGS41zc. The market opened &c
| higher for January and &c better for March,
with a strong feeling. Quite a good many
| buying orders were IN hand and had to be
| filled at the advance. Liverpool was dearer
and its quotations were Id per GENITAL higher
W
! The stocks of wheat in the United Kingdom
were announced to be lighter than expected.
| On passage thlther of wheat and flour there
| were 2,025,000 quarters. The receipts were
| 1876 cars against l52 Wednesday. New York
| early was 5sc higher, with large buying or
| ders in from the country and private cables
all strong. While the speculative spirit for
| the new year has started in strong for wheat,
it has thus far failed to get hold OF corn To
| any great extent. To-day January opened
sc of, and advanced about 14C95sc. May
| n md d-ap
| part of il later IN the session. Liverpool was
| weaker on corn and Id per Genital lower. On
passage to the United Kingdom there were
| 100000 quarters. The receipts to-day were
| 343 cars against 263 Wednesday, and out OF
this number ia graded No. 2. Oats improved
for the May option 1890 in sympathy with
wheat. February pork opened SC higher at
| $ll 25; sold up to Sll 90, and back to 81 AZ
Lard followed its associate, though not to the
| same extent.
