Chicago, May 14. In tho most
sensational opening in history of the
; Chicago board of trade wheat yester-
day shot past the dollar mark.
Heavy realizing sales pushed prices
backward somewhat, but at the close
of the market It was strong and ac
cording to some of the speculators
on the board, the demand upon
which the late advance has been
made is still unsatisfied.
The net advance for the day was
four cents for July options and Sept
ember options, and four and one
eighth cents for December option.
It was certainly a strong bull place
in the wheat market at the opening.
Country markets had poured in
seemingly in an endless stream and
In obedience to it brokers stood by
ready to buy millions of bushels of it
at the market. Shorts wore In a
highly nervous condition and were
eagar to cover. The result was a3
soon as the gong sounded there was
a terrlfflc roar of voices, all anxious
to buy and nobody offering to sell.
Trade was too big and too broad to
bo followed with any certanity and
brokers filled orders frequently sev
eral cents away from the point at
which they hoped to buy. Tho con
fusion was so groat that for a few
minutes but little actual business was
transacted, the brokers fighting and
struggling to get hold of wheat at
any price.
A rush of buying orders seemed
to come from almost every city in
the country which is situated on the
telegraph wire. Professional operat
ors were of the opinion that tho rush
was a little too vigorous and took a
chance to seize profits. This caused
a temporary check, but buying orders
still poured in and the market soared
again. Again long wheat came out
and brought about a reaction and
again, the country orders forced it
up. There are no claims that the
market is being manipulated, tho
general opinion being that the ad
vance was based on natural causes.
Among smaller traders, predictions
are freely made that wheat will go
to $1.25 to $1.50 berore the present
advance in July Is stopped.
