CHICAGO, March 10.-Wheat furnished a
surprise to-dtI The May option suddenly
became excited and shot skyward, while
July was as wax as May was strong The
latter made 9 21Sc gain and the former
dropped IL. Local shorts began to think
that probably the clique bad opened the
bull campaign in earnest, and took fright
at once. Wien they began TO cover IL was
found that ttGe was hardly any for sale,
and this only added to the alarm, which
ended in pntial panic, during which the
price was oil up PIC in less than half an
hour Aftertle scare had passed the be-
lief among uaay was that the buying had
been on unlimited orders from shorts in the
Northwest, Vlo had with much unsnimity
resolved on covering their May shortage
After the INST urgent shorts had supplied
their wants, the market got dull again and
lost ll5c of ne advance. The feature Of
the market was the fact that while May
was on the rampage July was on the
slump. Cor ard oats did not share the
pyrotechuics displayed in the wheat pit,
remaining WITHIN narrow limits and aver
aging sh&e higher. Provisions. active
