COUNTRY ORDERS POUR IN
BUYING ORDERS FROM ALL OVER

PORTS CAUSE IT.

Chicago, May lin the most SEN
s%ational opening in the history of the
Chicago board of trade wheat yester-
day shot past the dollar mark. Heavy
realizing sales pushed the price back
ward somewhat, but al the close the
market was strong. and. according to
the majority Of the spectators on the
board. the demand upon which the
late advance has been made is still un-
satisfied. The net advance Yesterday
for wheat was 4 cents for the July and
September options and a Is cents for
the December option. From the low
point on Monday of last week July
wheat has advanced IS 81 cents, Sep
temper has gone mp is ga cents ana
in the December option the high point
Of yesterday was 1854 cents above
the low price of last Monday.
Country Orders Pour In.

bulge would take place in the wheat
market at The opening. Country or
ders had been poured in seemingly in
an endless stream, and in obedience
TO them brokers stood ready to buy
millions of bushels at the market
price. Shorts were in a highly nerv-
Gus condition and were eager to cover.
The result was that as soon as the
gong sounded there was a terrific roar
of voices. all anxious to buy. and no.
body offering to sell The confusion
was so great that for d few minutes
but little actual business was trans
acted, the brokers fighting and strug-
Cling in the effort TO get hold OF wheat
from anybody at any price.
The rush OF buying orders seemed
to come from almost every city in the
United States which was situated
along a telegraph line. The country
at large seemed determined to buy
wheat at whatever price it could be
had.
Caused by Crop Reports.
There we're no claims in any direc-

upon natural conditions. which are
