MARKET OUT OF SIGHT
The Chicago Wheat Pit Treat
ed to Quite a Genuine
Surprise.
Everybody Tried to Sell and
Every body Got the Worst
Of 1t.
All Long Wheat Sold Around
at a Lively Rate at Top
Prices.
The Trading Element on Wall
Street Of a Purely Local
Nature.

CHICAGO, March Ito say that wheat
traders were surprised this morning would
be putting it slowly. 1t was known that
there had been phenomenal increase in the
quantity of wheat and flour. as wheat put
afloat Oh the ocean last week. This large
quanity-equal TO 3.77600O bu-was also
known to have come from Southern Russian
ports to the deTiment OF Americas export
business. 1t therefore looked like a sure
thing at the outset to sell wheat and make
money. Nearly everybody tried it. Nearly
everybody got the worst of it. The volley of
wheat poured into the market went out of
sight quickly, but had no effect Meanwhile
corn, oats and provisions were sailing higher.
Before the crowd hardly knew it there was a
general stampede of the early sellers.
All we're trying to buy wheat at once. The
market suddenly responded. After it once
got started upward it looked as though it was
going up out of sight. Before the last of the
shorts had bought their wheat the price for
May was S1.027s against S10l3s as the open
ing figure. Long wheat in great profusion
was supplied Oh this advance. Values finally
receded to Sl.017S but the early bulge, which
lasted less than twenty minutes. has fright
ened the trade so much that short sellers did
not recover during the session. Mccormick
Il Co., Schwartz Dupee and Norton-Worth-
lngton picked up most Of the wheat offered
for sale at the start. Mitchell, Sullivan,
and host of others who sold al
the, opening were buying freely at
higher prices during the rise. Long
wheat was sold around top prices by Mil
mine-Rodman. Kennett-Hopkins, and few
other commission firms. Logan and ). Y.
White d Co. sold large quantity OF the May.
There were rumors here of more financial
trouble in Paris, and prominent operator on
the New York consolidated exchange was
reported in trouble. These reports did not
offset values here. Official closing cables
quoted Berlin up equal to 1c per blu. English
country markets firm, cargoes off coast and
on passage quiet. The bulls in corn found
il no trouble to advance prices sharply. They
simply bid for the corn which ihev knew no
one among professional traders dared to sell
them. After thecmarket had scored good
advance. however, they found that some of
the holders of the grain were selling
May started at 62s4@63lsc, sold to 635sc, off
TO 63c, up to 65c and off to 6314c. Oats simply
followed corn. The trade was much inclined
TO run from offerings of the actual stuff
Fowler sold May and bought July. Receipts
OF hogs at the yards were 1900 head short of
what the trade expected. The result was a
great scramble 10 buy among the shorts
which was helped along by judcious buying
by the packers, led by Armour The rise
which followed was met with heavy sales by
holders.
The leading futures ranged as follows.
