CnicAGO, Sept. 29.— Excitement in wheat iras at fever heat during the entire session, and a more nervous and anxious feeling was seldom witnessed on the part of operators. In the main it was pretty much a repetition 01 what happened the past tew days. Trad ing was active and the apparent determina tion to carry the squeeze in September through to the bitter end made operators ap prehensive of what might occur in the more deferred deliveries, and there was a general desire to cover and close up tne contracts for me months of October and December. Shorts bought very freely, and there was not very much wheat lor sale as compared with the inquiry. Orders came pouring in from all points to cover outstanding trades. The Advance in consequence was very sharp. The opening was about *j@lo above the closing figures of yesterday, but a decline of 1 tec followed for October, Use for Decem ber, and l*Ac fir May. There the decline was checked, and a steady advance set in, prices advancing Stsc for October, G*sic for December and 2 Uc for May; dropped Hie and the closing was tMkfi higher for October, 5c for December and 2<i,c higher for May than closing figures of yesterday. Septem ber was irregular and, iv fact it was dink-tilt to tell what the market was at times, though prices were advanced 10c above yesterday's outside figure. $1.60; this price was bid and $2 later. Outside influence had no in fluence, on the market Corn was active and the feeling generally firm most of the session. Opening sales were a shade higher than the closing prices of yesterday, market then ruling steady, became firmer and gradually advanced %c. reacted 14c, ana closed with October *"6@%c, November lie and May **i@%c higher than yesterday. The Influences on the market were entirely local, a large local operator buying quite freely of November brought this future within %c of October. Oats were dull. There was *,&('"' Uc flecline for all deliveries, up to May, but that future did not change materially. " Mess pork was active, stronger and higher! October was bought freely by shorts. A better business also transpired in* the more deferred futures, especially in January, which was sold freely by a prominent operator, who is largely in terested In wheat. Opened 2%@5c higher, advanced 25@35c, receded slightly, but closed steady. Lard was in good demand for October and market stronger, and prices higher.

Various futures opened from **4c above last night's close to toe below, December and October being off and May and cash up. Up to noon there was gradually increasing busi ness at slowly advancing prices, but about 12 o'clock a big batch of buying orders came In together, with higher prices from the outside, and the rest of the session was pandemo nium let loose. It was a wild, excited mar ket with futures soaring up almost a cent at a jump. During all the excitement it was surprising to note how little wheat came out. It was almost impossible to buy even on the strongest advances more than a 5,000 or 10,000 lot, and the bidders were wild. Just before the close the market re acted, and closed lower. The total advance was2V4c on September, 31,4 con October, and 5c on December and May. Cash wheat sold at $1,091.4 and $1.1014, and closed at $1.13 for No. 1 hard.

The stock market was ex tremely active and decidedly strong to-day from the opening to the close, and again everything on the list made material gains for the day. London had some selling orders in the market at the opening, and the first sales were made at irregular changes from the closing figures of last evening, though declines were in a majority and extended to I& per cent. The temper of the room, however, was bullish and the market became very strong immediately. The opening prices in most of the list were the lowest of the day. Pacific Mail and New England developed marked activity and strength, the latter especially displaying great buoyancy and with scarcely a set-back during the whole session, it ad vanced, gaining nearly 3 per cent. East Tennessee seconds preferred, Denver & Rio Grande preferred and Louisville & Nashville all followed with marked advances, and among the specialties Chicago & East Illinois preferred, Cnesapeake & Ohio and Big Four were very prominent, Missouri Pacific and Heading joiniug the procession later in the day; but the movement extended to all parts of "the list and ceased only with the cease of business. Much of the buying in New England was attributed to Boston, but there was a large demand for the stock and it was * easily the leader of the market. There was a great deal oi realizing of profits on the ad vance, but the new buying was sufficient to - absorb all the offerings ana still keep the list moving in the upward direction. The close was active and strong at the best prices of the day. The most marked advances were New England, 2*4 ; Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati & Indianapolis, Its: Denver & Rio Grande preferred and East Tennessee second preferred. Its each; Pacific Mail and Chicago & East Illinois preferred' 1 per cent, and others smaller amounts. The railroad bond market was again very active, aud as the share list was decidedly strong throughout the ses sion. The Chesapeake & Ohio issues were the special features of the day by reason of their activity and strength, all making marked advance *. The currency certificates contributed $270,000 to the day's total of $1,375,000. The only other specially active issue was the St Louis, Arkansas & Texas 2ds, which furnished $219,000. The re mainder of the business was quite evenly distributed. The most important gains were Chesapeake & Ohio scries B certificates, 3% to SO; the 4s, 3% to 7975 ; Delaware & Hud son extension 7s, 2 to 110, and the St. Louis, Arkansas & Texas 2ds, 2% to 42s*.
