A Sharp Advance In Liverpool Affects the
Produce Exchange.
NEW YORK CITY (speciaD. made
a sensational rise Of five cents bushel Mon.
day on the Produce Exchange, and the Wild
est excitement prevailed. Business In other
parts OF the Exchange practically ceased,
and during all the hours of business the
wheat pit was jammed with dense mass OF
frantic brokers. Cash wheat at 30 cents

year OF % cents was the days record. The
close on Saturday for the December option
was s1X cents. Monday went ~ cents
better.
The exchange opened at 1890 q. m. By
noon options amounting to II ,045, 600 bushels
were sold, representing gains or losses OF say
about $400, 900. The December future climbed
steadily after the opening purst, until 1t

since June, Of 21N cents since September IA
five Yeeks-and OF 13H cents In the last
two weeks. The price tiuctuated above S6
the rest of the morning.
The highly sensational jump OF the morn
ing was owing to the cables reporting an ad.
vance OF six cents bushel In Liverpool, and
further bull news concerning the shortage
Of crops In India. Russia, the Argentine Re-
public. Australia and other wheat-raising
countries.
It is estimated that the recent rise In the
cash value Of whe, It and corn has increased
the wealth of the holders OF those grains In
this country by 94,ssl, ,O15 within the last
sixty days. OF this amount the advance IN
the price OF wheat in the markets OF the
world has contributed no less than $50 $685.

United States $4S, ,754, 1864.

startling suddenness and effect 1t came like

missed by quarter Of q cent only, the top
notch OF the sensational session being 79A

Before the commotion in the pit began,
the English cables posted on Change told
the feverish crowd that more wheat was

Liverpool, Paris and Berlin contributed their
quota OF bull news anu served to tune the
excited crowd to the pitch OF a three-cent

which was shown by the prices remaining
firm In the face of heavy selling OF long lines
by holders to get the profit.
The aggregate amount Of business was
something enormous, and was characterized
by wild excitement and frequent and vio-
lent fluctuations. Strange to say, the SIX
