Furnished by J. c. Goings, Commission
Merchant, 112 East Fifth street. Topeka.
Kan, receiver and shipper of grain.
New York, March 16.-There are new de-
veIopments in the speculative situation
in Wall street. The market is being
guided by the professional element of
which Wormser is the leading spirit. Vio-
lent fluctuations in Third Avenue consu-
tute the chief feature of interest. The
whole list influenced by the erratic move
ments of this stock It is very evident
that some one thoroughly experienced in
the art of manipulation is responsible for
the wide changes in the price of the
shares that have taken place during the
past two days. There is a suspicion that
Keene is the moving spirit. According TO
common report he was caught long with
a big line of the stock on the decline from
above par, and il is reasonable to as
sumo that he is trying to retrieve his
losses by engineering move against the
shorts, The stock surely is not innuenced
by legitimate FACTORS, II IL we're, II Wouiu
not be selling within 20 points of current
quotations. There has been toe much
reckless selling Every little trade IN the
stock turned bear on the stock about the
time that the decline had eliminated,
and they are now reaping the reward OF
their indiScretiOn. The buying of Bur-
HngtOn continues to attract attention. Of
ficials of the road are more bulliSh on
the stock than they have been since it
sold at $50. The most important buying
comes from Boston, although the west is
picking it up on a liberal scale 1t looks
like a safe purchase on any reactions, as
il is the prevailing opinion the pool viii
carry 1t ABOVE lou Recent BuSSiS OF
Peoples Gas appear to be anxious TO take
profits now that the shorts nave all been
driven in. On the bulges the market is
flooded with the stock. Westerners are
buyers and confidently predict IS for the
shares this spring Sugar is freely offered
on the bulges by brokers closely identified
with inside interests The selling has for
its object the encouragement of a large
and short interest. The stock can safely
be bought on a decline of five points. but
buyers should not hold too long. The
popular impression is that it will consid-
erably lower during the next sixty days.
The bears will probably try to force
prices down on a bad bank statement.
Should they succeed it will be best to
buy for a turn. r. N. HUDSON.

TODAY'S MARKET REPORT.

Chicago, March 16-WHEAT-Wheat
showed an unexpected degree of strength
today. approximations of damage to the
winter wheat on account of the unpro-
tected condition of the fields were in
creased by the sudden and bitter cold
wave all through the west, and brought
and substantial advance in the price.
The cold wave was the main factor in
the strength, but considerable buying
was done on the Argentine shipments
