| CHICAGO, June 3.-The wild scramble In the
wheat pit to-day and the bulge of nearly Sc in
| prices was due TO a covert attempt at purchas-
ing by Partridge. The crowd was evidently
| largely snort, and when buy ng began 1t was
found that there was hardly any wheat for sale.
| This discovery only increased the anxiety to
cover, resulting in bear panic Partridge
| soon abandoned his idea of buying, but IL
| noticed that he was not selling anything OF CON
| sequence. The report was current on the floor
| that big operator selling out securities on
| the lOCal STOCK eXChaOgo IN Wow OF a possible
squeeze in wheat and corn It was gossip that
| he had been called for $780,
| 900 margins short wheat last
night and it is certain that he was called heavily
| to-day. ST. Louis was very bullish and reported
| as pressing buying in this market also. In To-
| cal trade it looked as if strong combination
was working to put shorts in the corner and
| start a big bull market Rumor has 1t that
| Partridge is short 100000 bushels OF wheat
| and 1000, 900 bushels OF corn. The opening in
| wheat at $500 for July about 14c lower than
| last night, but there were very few resting
places in the market after it was put fairly on
| the boil, and the price was several
| times run up and down In an agi
| tatei way between s518534c, after bulge
| to Sc. The closingprice was S59sc for sellers
| Shorts in corn became anxious buyers when the
| scare came in wheat. They were helped won
derfully by large element in the trade now
| talking 75c for corn on a possible crop failure.
| The advance was very sharp and strong. July,
which opened unchanged at 1880, went flying
to 1876. There was drop Of A01bc later,
| when the final furry put prices up TO 504c
| There was a great deal OF selling on the ad-
| vance by longs and it was thought that Pard-
| ridge and other big shorts must have absorbed
| the offerings. Oats were also strong and made
q gain over yesterdays closing price OF 1c per
bushel. Provisions gained little in the article
of barreled pork, but lard is no higher and ribs
| are from 212Q15c lower.
