CHICAGO wheat PIT
PRICES TOOK A JUMP sky
Ward SATURDAY.
Dollar BusheI Is the Slogan Of Bulls
Pit Lid Is Loose-WiId Mob Of
Spectators Participates in the Pan
demonium-Ruy, Buy, the Orders
December Options Advance Cents.

Chicago, May 1.-THE lid is loose
on the Chicago wheat pit A shouting,
screening mob of spectators lifted
1t high during the short Saturday ses-
sion, replacing it lightly, ready for an
other boost Monday
That it will be boosted high as a
kite is the common prediction, and
wheat at $1.25 is promised soon.
The bull crowd stampeded the pit
and the buying element was in control
December wheat closed with a rush at
95 cents, gain of cents for the day
and s cents during the week, while
July closed at 81 ga cents, a gain of
7 ga cents for the week. There were
high figures for the year. Bears who
had not needed the ominous warnings
of the early days of the week fran
tically endeavored to get from under,
adding to the excitement
Spectators went into the pit and
fought shoulder to shoulder with their
clerks in an effort to fill the rush of
orders to buy" which poured in from
all over the country
Excitement such as has not been
rush" scare Of 1904 existed. The fran
tic efforts made by the bears to get
from under the advance were met by
a demand which came from all parts
of the country and swept everything
before it. The high mark for the July
option was 81 ga cents, for September,
SO ga cents and for December, 95 IL
cents.
The cause of the upturn which has
taken place in the last few days is the
widespread belief that this years
crop of winter wheat will show a big
decrease as compared with that OF
1906. Cold weather in the west and
northwest, freezing temperatures in
the Canadian northwest and damage
said to have been done in the south
west by the green bug aided the rush
upward.
1t was reported here today from
Winnipeg that not more than Is pei
cent of the estimated acreage had
thus far been seeded in the province
of Manitoba.
The local traders were of the opin
ion that wheat has been advancing toe
rapidly during the last few days ant
that a reaction was due. So many or
ders poured in from the country, how
ever, that it was certain that the ex
pected setback would not come unit
later in the day. Once trading was II
full swing the orders from the coun
try came so fast and in such number
that the local crowd was carried be
fore it.
The flood of buying orders con
tinued, and when the market CLOSED
the prices were close to the high mari
of the day and the movement seemed
to have lost no force.
