Markets In General.

Chicago, April s.-Beginning about five
minutes to twelve o'clock today when
May wheat had reached from &c, 10
which price il had gradually risen from
around 66Iac, a stampede Of holders
commenced which in fifteen minutes
tumbled the price 10 S411a cents. July and
May came together again in a heap at
the bottom OF the descent. The break
was due, partly, il is said, 10 renewed
bear operations for a. j. We'll, but more
largely by the selling out OF Robert
Lindolom & Co. OF about $500. 900 bushels
Of long wheat held for New York specu-
lation. Numerous orders 10 stop long
wheat losses at Csc contributed to the
drop below that point The closing price
for May was 6i7sc, and for July 6S1sc.
The latter sold at low as 64Asc.
New York, April 9.-The wheat market
worked up considerable excitement on
change this afternoon by developing
sudden weakness of an extreme nature
and breaking through all previous low
records since last September. The May
option, under heavy rush OF liquida ton
orders, tumbled from 80 cents. the high
est price Of the day, 70 Ills cents, which
is Is cents below the previous low point
The break in wheat affected all other
