CHICAGO. March 20.-Wheat at the opening
the trade A rise at the start of from Ia to lac
unexpected from the fact that over a consider
able area of the winter wheat belt copious rains
fell. The chief reason for the strength was prob
ably due to the speculative situation. The selling
yesterday had been of a sanguine character and it
took but little to alarm the shorts. Steadiness
at Liverpool this morning in face of 1ac de-
cline here yesterday and a slight improve
ment in the price of wheat and -four as
cabled from Paris at the opening proved enough
10 give the market upward push, which set the
smaller shorts TO buying and created a nervous
suspicion OF the wisdom OF being short which
lasted for an hour. The market was moderately
active for time and then became dull, May going
from Soc to 5e14956$sc and back again to soc.
May sold down TO 555sc, although closing cables
quoted an advance OF 1y4d to 1ad at LIVERPOOL Cd
per sack for -four at London the equivalent OF 1ac
per bushel for March wheat at Paris and l marx
rise or 5sc per bushel Berlin. The close was
weak at 555s@5534c.
Corn opened strong, and after advancing BAG

lost its improvement. The price for Nav WAS

STOCKS IN LONDON

London cableSram says: The stock markets were
good to-day, but closed generally below the best
Dealings after the house closed were entirely
checked by the commotion of the South African
market IN which the street dealing had grown to
such an extent that the street was blocked and
four brokers were arrested for obstructing the
thoroughfare and fine imposed upon them The
street tonight is blocked with indignant protesting
brokers', who are demonstrating their right to deal
in Throckmorton street
Americans opened firm. There were more pur-
chases from the Continent, including Germany.
The absence OF public interest induced reaizations
later and the tone closed weaker
