CHICAGO. March 2S.-May wheat was on
the bulge to-day worse than ever II was
a feverish market, with frequent f1uctua-
tiOns, the extremes covering a range OF over
21<c Perhaps the most alarming incident
for the shorts was that train load OF
wheat sent here from Minneapolis and
guaranteed to inspect No. had, with the
exception of five cars, missed the grade.
This discouraged the shorts who had re-
lied on getting wheat outside to fill their
short sales and made some Of them desper-
ate. Gables were also reported higher and
the clique also seemed less inclined 10 sup
ply the shorts with wheat, even on the
sharp bulges. 1t was the general impress
sion that the clique was more inclined TO be
aggressive now than at any time since the
deal was talked Of. Corn was helped by
the strength in wheat and closed with a
gain for the day of &c. There was good
trade and a tirmer feeling in oats. Provis-
ions were dull and show little change.
