NEW YORK.
New York Jan 24.-Wheat traders who
have heretofore been "a Their skeptical on
the question of outside interest in wheat
were convinced by the action of todays
market that Wall Street and other pub
lie interests had taken a vigorous hold,
70 the exclusion OF all other influences.
Throughout the forenoon and early after
noon there was scene OF old-tlme eI-
element and violent price fluctuations
in the pit. advancing the May option to
1850, or iSsc higher than 1t has been at
any time in the present season. Then the
Northwest commenced TO sell. and room
traders, seeing their advantage, hammer
ed the market heavily, producing a final
reaction TO TIC. Nevertheless. final
prices were still 1-7ddssc higher than the
previous day and sentiment mistaken

sources. There is little in the news at
present to encourage buyers. but in
purely speculative market ordinary news
cuts but little figure. Europe took but ! ,
fifty loads OF cash wheat and sent firm
cables. Spot property still commands a /
good premium at New York and the
worlds visible supply today, instead of
showing the million bushels increase ex-
pected. actually decreased 52.0c0 bushels.
