RAPID RISE IN MAY WHEAT
Excitement Among the Traders in the
Chicago Market
BY A AssocIated Press.


CHICAGO, Feb. 16-Attention of
wheat traders today centered around
the May delivery. Trading in that op-
tion was at high tension all through
the session. There was apparently
constant fear of unexpected develop
ments. The energy of brokers seemed
taxed to the utmost to keep abreast of
the market. The start in May was 40
Nc to A@%c higher at 81 20 to 1.20R.
July was unchanged to Hc higher at
81 .021s to $1.02%. Commission houses
generally had orders to buy at 81 20
for customers who were short Filling
of these orders was attended with no
little excitement. Within a few min
utes after the opening May sold at
81 20 "a and July at 81 .02A al .02B.
At the initial advance there was
long wheat for sale in large quantities
by outside holders. Statistics appeared
to have little effect, the congestion of
the market for May wheat being the
all-absorbing topic of conversation.
Later the selling was augmented by
offerings from houses that have been
trading largely for Wall street specu-
lators. AS a result prices had sharp
setback May declining to 81 .19A and
July to 81. 1.01N. On coverings by shorts
May quickly regained much of the
loss. July, however, was in poor de-
mand.
The market was extremely nervous
the remainder of the session. Just be-
fore the close another sharp advance
occurred as a result of renewed cover
ing. May rose to new high record
mark for the season, the price touching
$1.211s. The July option responded less
readily. Final quotations on May were
at $1.21ss and on July 81 .O2A OIL OPS.
Notice was posted that e. A. Ring,
a small broker, had failed to pay his
balance at the clearing house. AS in
the case of e. H. Prince yesterday, the
trouble was laid to the May deal in
wheat.
Milder weather in the west renewed
the liquidation Of corn by several large
holders, resulting in weak market.
May closed at 46%c.
The reduction in freight rates affect
ed the oats market as well as the corn
market May closed at 31A@31ssc.
Provisions were weak, with prices
slightly lower. At the close May pork
was off TIC, lard was down 5@71sc and
ribs lost 21A@5c.

lows:

NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-The stock
markets show of spotty strength was
about the same today as yesterday
except that some different stocks were
affected In some cases 1t was ap-
parent that the movements were due
to operations by pools in particular
stocks.
Low-priced industrials continued to
play conspicuous part in the market
and in the railroad list the low-priced
non-dividend paying stocks came into
greater favor. Stocks of the Morgan
group, including United States Steel
common and Rock Island, were exam
pies of this class. Union Pacific ad-
vancd again to slightly above it's high
price of yesterday, but the failure of a
stock exchange house which was said
to be due to uncovered commitments
on the short side of the market was
believed to explain to some extent yes
terday's sharp rise in Union Pacific.
The strength of the stock in conse-
quence did not hold throughout the
day.
There was, however, a corresponding
advance to new record price for
Northern Securities on the curb and
buyers of the stocks professed conf
dence that an early increase in the
Union Pacific dividend rate was in
contemplation.
Yesterdays rumor of transfer of
control of Ontario & Western to New
York Central were denied on authority
but the stock continued to show
strength and the minority interests
were said to have faith that they
will be granted lucrative terms.
The decline in exchange rates con-
tinued and money was in abundant
supply. Great attention and active
discussion were given to the contest
for control of the enormous resources
of one of the great life insurance COM
panies. Aside from the personal
phases of the contest and of the
dispute over the manner of adminis-
tering the important affairs involved,
the bitterness caused by the struggle
is witness to the vast Importance at
tached to the control of the insurance
company. This furnished the text for
much discussion on the close affilia-
tions between the great insurance COM
panies, banks, trust companies and
railroads and the effects of the counter
workings of these great institutions
upon each others affairs. The effect
was not stimulating upon the specula-
tion in stocks.
Reports from Washington were re-
vived of a proposed extra session of
congress for consideration of rate legis-
ldtlon ana tne proceedings Tor 1nVeSt1-
cation of the Standard Oil company
were noted with interest. So was the
suggested possibility of a crisis in our
relations with Venezuela.
Further cuts were announced on
freight rates in the progress of the
war for export traffic, and there were
complaints of freight obstruction from
the stormy weather.
An uncertain tone developed in con-
sequence, and the sharp selling move
ment of the last hour wiped out about
all the gains and established a few
sharp losses.
Bonds were firm. Total sales.
$5,540,000
United States bonds were all un-
changed on call.
