CHICAGO, March 11.--If there was any doubt
about wheat being manipulated in the Chicago
market IL was dissipated to-day. The news
was all bearish, but instead of break of &c or
30 and panicky market, there was bound of
l13c which put the May price at TSc soon after
the opening. This upset all calculation.
The impetus proved stronger than the
government report, stronger than the shorts
and more powerful for the moment than all the
bearish influences. There was heavy Tallying
at the advance, under which prices yielded TO
about yesterdays close, but again recovered
The close showed a gain of &c over yesterdays
closing figures for May and an advance of 1bc
in July. oats were unchanged. Corn and pro-
visions were firm and closed a trife higher than
on the day before.
