6 SHORTS ARE FRIGHTENED. They Scramble to Cover Their Deals in the Wheat Fut ures. Specnlation Is Wild and Pricas Touch the Highest Point This Season. Financial Operations of the Honey Kings—The General Quota tions. CmcAGO,'lll.,April 14.— The immense main in wheat was continued on 'change to-day. There was a very ex cited opening, with May selling atfirst Hash all the way from «.>oc to 93c The top point at which there was any important trading was 93J4e, and the price soon settled to i)2c. and then off to 89c at the end of the hour. There were a couple of bulges to DOe or better dur ing the following hoiir,|but before 1 o'clock May was back to 89& C There was a great change in the relative action In May and July. On Saturday May went flying to 91c on the buying by shorts, while July held pretty natural at 84' 4 c at the close. This morning July opened with first sales atßs>£@ S6> 2 'c. After touching SO^c there was a reaction to S5. l .;e. It was later that the realization dawned on the trade. In get ting out of May there was groat selling of July. Many sold July who were not in the May. The country kept buying July. These orders came thick and fast again this morning, and the trade realized that July was bound to go up in a sensational way also. A few oper ators who saw these conditions first sold May and bought July. Then the shorts in July became alarmed, and the price went from 85)£c at 11 o'clock to 88c be fore 1 o'clock, and the spread of six cents between May and July was thus narrowed down to less than two cents. The trading at all hours was enormous, but the first half hour was far beyond all others, and individual transactions were lost in the great volume in the pit. Most of the news of the day was bullish, which added to the furore- already in progress. It helped to increase the bullish sentiment, which is carrying the market up. Liverpool cables were half a penny higher. Cables regarding India's wheat supply were bullish in the extreme. The cold weather pre vented seeding in the Northwest and helped increase the buying 'orders. The visible supply, which it was thought might decrease 300,000 bushels, showed a decrease of nearly 700,000 bushels. New York cleared about 100, --000 bushels of wheat. At 1 o'clock July was at BS>aC, with May nominal at 90c to 91c. Wheat did not fly high the lasthalf hour. In fact prices dropped off on realizing sales. Receipts were: Wheat, 45 cars; corn, 410 cars; oats, 723 cars. Shipments were: Wheat, 46,440 bu; corn, 742,669 bu; oats, 200,160 bii. The visible supply decreased 670,000 bu on wheat, 887.000 bu on corn and 16,000 bu on oats. Corn was fairly active and stronger early, largely in sympathy with the advance in wheat, but, partly owing to anticipated small arrivals ana bad grading, May sold higher than on Saturday, or from 32% c to : :• 33c, fell off to 32Kc, but on the decrease in the visible sup ply and some up-turn in wheat went back to nearly the high point. July was pretty steadily lc over May, ranging at 33}' 2 '<«;:>4c. Shorts were ' liberal buyers most of the session, and the. sales were mostly to realize profits on long corn. Oats weie fairly active and rather strong, chiefly in sympathy with the ad vance in wheat and corn. Pork showed little evidence of the excitement which prevailed Saturday. Shorts were still nervous and excitable, but as it was un derstood that Armour was ready to throw a great deal on the market in the event of a repetition of Saturday's per formance, this steadied the market. May pork: opened very unsettled, sell ing at $12.50 to 13.25 at nearly the same time, but went up finally to $13.75, but hung most of the day at 513.25@13.50. The trading seems to be leaving May and going into June and July. July was nominally 20c over May, but the reported sales ranged at $13.30@13.70. Lard and ribs were in better demand and higher than on Saturday. The leading futures ranged as follows: Open- High- Clos- Abticlss. ing. eat. Lowest . ing.

The stock market to-day was stronger and more active than usual of late, and material improvement was made in : all portions of the list. The great feature of the. day was the Improvement in the West ern railroad situation and the growing feeling that the difficulties among the contending roads in that section are near a satisfactory solution. It was the first report that ■ everything had been settled and shorts went into cover, showing that they are not by any means confident of their position, and the bulls took hold with more vim tl«m has been Been on the long side, for weeks, tak injj the market away from the bears, THE SAEJT PATJI DAILY GLOBE: TUESDAY MORNING, APRIL 15, 1890. and the probability Is, that notwith standing the material rise in : prices brought abottr, tl»§ : glior^ Int^lSSti, ll as heeil very i little "reduced by tnß day's operations. • The rise in < the early por tion of the day was resisted with con siderable ■, force, but : the effort was un availing, and was soon given up. The upward movement in prices was prac tically uninterrupted, and only in ; the last hour was there anything like a halt. The report that all the roads had; agreed to restore freight, - rates to the Missouri river gave the rise an other stimulus toward noon, and all the stocks in which there has been most marked selling of late were the most conspicuous in the rise. Rock Island, Missouri Pacific, Burlington, St. Paul and Lackawanna were most prominent in the dealings, and in ; those shares the most important movements were made, the rest of the list being comparatively quiet within narrow limits, . although the entire market participated in the improvement. Among the specialties there were the usual wide and sudden movements, and the Bituminous Coal shares led in that respect, both Ten nessee and Colorado Coal showing marked improvement at the close.though the former was dull. Manhattan was strong on reports of large earnings, and Jersey Central and New England were higher on inside buying and good busi ness. The unlisted department • was comparatively neglected, although there was more business done in it than usual of late. The market after the effort to resist the upward movement ceased showed no change in it, and finally closed quiet, but steady to firm. It was freely stated upon the street to-day that J. Pierrepont Morgan's departure for Europe lately had for one ot its objects the plac-ingof some $40.000,000 0f various railroad bonds on the foreign markets. The money market worked satisfactorily throughout, and notwithstanding the low state of the bank reserves and the demand for loan rates on call went only as high as 6 per cent, and closed at 0% bid. The list is higher to-night, and Tennessee Coal is up 2,%: Col orado Coal, 2%; Jersey Central, \%\ Manhattan, Y%\ Big Four, IX, and New England 1 per cent. Railroad, bonds were dull and failed to respond to the improved feeling in the share list, displaying a rather heavy tone, and the final changes to-night show a ma jority of declines. Sales reached only $990,000. Big Sandy 6s lost 1 atiKic; Cedar Falls and Minneapolis lsts 4 at 66. Government bonds have been dull and steady. State bonds have been quiet and steady. The Post says: "The advance in prices this morning was caused by short covering induced by re ports from Chicago that the Western roads, with the exception of the Chicago & Alton, have agreed to restore freight rates to the basis of 70c to Missouri river poits and 60c to St. Paul, which means practically a settle ment of the previous existing rate diffi culties in that section ot territory. In the afternoon the market was active and strong, and the highest prices of the day were made in the last hour, the advance over 12 clock prices having been I^@lK per cent, the strongest stocks having been the Grangers, the Southwesterns and the Coal stocks. The total sales of stock to-day were 191,717 shares, including Atchison, 7.7J0; Delaware, Lackawanua & West ern, 12,800; Louisville &Nashville. 8,834; Missouri Pacific. 17,550; Northwestern, 3,500; Pacific Mail, 3.460; St. Paul, 14, --460; Union Pacific, 28,570. ■ R.

Prices were unsettled, with frequent ana startling fluctuations. The de mand was large at . the opening, and under great excitement prices jumped up 2c in a very few minutes. • There was heavy realiz ing at the advance and the market weakened under the load, settling down to within Jic of the opening price; but it soon brought up with a snap, and by noon had advanced i.fee higher than the early - rise. Transactions were on about 'he same . liberal scale they have been for several days, and brokers and commission men were very ' busy filling or ders all through the session. Liverpool quoted fair demand with white and red 3 farthings dearer. The total visible supply decreased 676,000 bu for the week. Stocks of No. 2 red decreased 35<>,(HK) bu. May opened at 8544 c and advanced quickly to *7Uc, hung there a few minutes, then fell to 85V2C, fluctuated for some time between that price and 8o"M)C then advanced to 87% c, fell off to 87V8C, and at 1 o'clock touched 88c.

The output of the mills for last week, while not heavy, was not all taken up in the de mand. Some good sales were made, , and there were reports of contracts for the sale of 80 cars by one party in a , single day. and of smaller amounts in the same ; time by others. ■ Still, the best information «hows • that in spite of the rise in wheat on the lat ter days, flour buyers were not routed from their previous notion of cautious conserva tism.' ■•• '. ■ ■ -■ - ■■■■'■ ' ■ '. ■■'" ' -_;r»"'- - Flour was advanced, as it had to be to keep abreast of the higher cost of wheat, but at the advance dealers hung . back, bidding old prices, on the basis of wheat costing 25@ 30c less on the barrel of flour. w r The recent rise in wheat was not caused by further damage to the crops. On the - other hand the conditions improved greatly during the week, but it was a promulgation . by . the - Washington ■ department of what ':■ people knew - two weeks ago : that - put up prices. Since two weeks ago condition? are greatly improved, and that improvement may be ex pected to be published from Washington May 10.

Dairy feeders . are using ■ these commodities largely - yet, and the de mand remains \ active ■ enough to :. stimulate' values, preventing declines that are expected later. ■■ ■ • ■ ' . Corn— Owing to the small local offerings of corn and; the firmness at competitive places, . prices have been well maintained and even higher prices have : been maintained than in '■ the preceding week. ~> Sales ■ on - track ranged ■ from 30c to 30V2C ; for good feed corn with ■ holders of corn in store asking 31®31",'2C for , it f. o. b. Business was light as the crop is moving slowly at present from farm. . I Oats— The demand • for . seed oats for ship- : ment West was the cause of an active market all the week. The ■ demand ;on some . days \ fell off. and gave rise to expectation that the inquiry was about over, when a • fresh ; batch of buying orders would come on the market. These inquiries and purchases took away seed grain at 24V2@26V2C, according to condition.

In timothy ana clover there was some movement from store through bales by job bers. Timothy sold from store at 81.20 to $1.50 for fair to choice and very fancy lots in small quantities. . Clover ranged from $3.20 to $3.45 in a small way from store. Feed— Was firm and rose to $12@12.50,the inside on track, outside free on board and shipped. The higher price oi corn and ad vance in oats forced sellers of the products to the advance noted. • '■ Hay— With more active farm work there was less hay arriving by team and lots from car sold better.

The market was entirely bare ( of . poultry of any description. The situation of butter .shows',- ho ". decided change from the last report. The receipt, continue large, with the majority classed as medium .and. poor grades, while choice to fancy is quite scarce. Holders are anxious to sell, but buyers will only take as their im mediate necessity requires. It is hard to move . lives, and medium stock is not in demand from any class of dealers. Not much veal was 011 the market, and that was poor stock. Fancy calves are still bringing S^c. but few are coming in. Dressed hogs are quiet and nominal. Mutton firm, with offerings slightly ' under demand. The movement of Southern fruits is well main tamed.
