NEW YORK, June 2o.-The bulls
again obtained control of the wheat
market this morning and squeezed
shorts on the early curb to the extent
of &c a bushel. July selling up to 1875
before the regular opening and from
1914 to 1914 after the official start, 1t
was an extremely nervous market with
transactions on a big scale, and bad
crop news together with unexpected
strong English cables, the principal ar
guments in favor of advancing prices.
The pit was in a fever of excitement all
the forenoon, prices shifting constantly
over a wide range, according as bulls or
bears obtained the upper hand temper
arily. The cry of dollar has cropped
up in some quarters but the best talent
regards such a price as very extreme
under present conditions.
Speculative excitement was continued
throughout the entire afternoon with
strong advance in price, July selling up
to Sc near the close, representing 4
cents advance for the day and IA cents
advance in the past two weeks. The
December option was even stronger,
showing Az net advance. The market
closed in a burst of excitement at top
notch for the session and year. Trans
actions altogether amounted to about
w million bushels.
