The week opened on the Stock Exchange with
a quiet market, in which a bullish sentiment,
predominated, although advocates of higher
prices did not present the wholo front shown a
few days back. The course of prices was up
won i during the forenoon, and many stocks
reached higher figures than had liecn seen up to
that time on the present advance. Limited buy
ing was el’good quality, but foreigners were
doing Utile or nothing, except in Union Pacific
and Wabash preferred. The forenoon improve
ment, however, upon the circulation of rumors
of riots in Chicago, caused by labor troubles,
was nearly wiped out. To this effect tree reali
zations also aided, but upon investigation of the
rumors their taisity was sufficiently demon
strated and a further improvement was cV im
mediate result. Fluctuations in a majority of
the active list, were again comparatively small,
though lew stocks, influenced by circumstances
peculiar to themselves, mode large, advances.
Among these may lie noted Marshal Coal, which
was admitted to the dealings Saturday. Others
prominent in the advance were Rock Island and
Pullman. Others in the general list showing
considerable strength were Northwestern, Lake
Shore and Canada Southern, the latter being
affected by a rumor that a traffic arrangement
had been made with Wabash which would throw
considerable bnslneas over the road. The open
ing was generally firm, but there war an inclina
tion to heaviness in tho early trading and slight
losses were sustained. The market quickly ral
lied under tho lead of Hocking Valley .ind Ismis
ville and Nashville. Tho heavy tone was re
newed before noon, however, R >'■’,* Island Icing
a conspicuous exception. The market liecame
cotnoaralively dull and su remained during the
continuance of the di pression, in which Jersey
Central and Norfolk and Western preferred were
prominent. In the last hour, upon somewhat
more .active trading, there was a fractional im
provement and the market closed moderately
a tivo aud firm nt somewhat better than the
oiiening figures. 'Fite closing prices show few
declines for insignificant fractions, while the
bulk of the list is materially higher. Tho

Green & L'o.'s reuort on cotton futures says:
“Business was unusually light aud the market
did not amount to much. Offerings were so
managed as to prevent any great supply coming
upon sale, and buyers getting a little nervous
over reports of dry weather east of the Missis
sippi, there was covering enough to add four
points at one time. As so frequently demon
strated of late, however, the snorts were soon
weeded out and a reactionary feeling followed
that left rates only a fraction above Saturday
evening, with the close dull.”

Chicago, May 16.—June wheat opened this
morning at 87L4e, and at once went to 87L$c,
higher than was touched at all during the late
manipulation iu May option. The nervous
iag in the crowd, Iq-ought about by clique
- tqietutions hist Saturday, large export clearings,
and an expectation of alwut 2,000,000 decrease
in the visible supply were the cause of strength.
Clique buying during the first hour of the
session was very light, and the balance of the
crowd were in possession of the market. Every
trade in the pit was trying in one way or an
other to buy a little wheat, and the feeling was
unanimously bullish. At the close of the first
hour's trading June was bid up to 8754 c, with
sellers at that price very few. At midday an
advance of !4ie had been scored in June. The
predictions of 90c for June wheat l fore the
week was over were made very freely, and
shuns were extremely nervous. They started
buying themselves, and the clique did not begin
to' bul very loudly early in the day.
After prob Ably an hour from the opening of the
session the clique were known to bn picking up
everything offered, and the shorts became panic
stricken. Before this prices were 8794 c and be
low for June, but when the stampede com
menced, that option ran right up to 88%c. At
Wc than w as considerable short wheat hovered,
but it came from the crowd promiscuously umi
no very large lines were evened up around 88%c
and BH‘4e. There was a short lull, aud prices
again advanced. June went right up to
88)4® 88; (jc. Little later on it reacted
some, and at 12:89 it was selling at 88%®88)4c.
Immediately after the afternoon session opursl
June wheat bulged to s.Y\ but it failed to hold
and settled back to tihLje. Between these two
figures it was very active, and the final close
was 88%® iNTqc. Cora opened easier, nt 4094 c
for July, sold down to 40 %(o iOAje iu the first
few minutes, atul continued to drug until mid
day, when some pork men stcpiied over into the
corn pit at a time when wheat became tlte
strongest, ami run prices of July up to 41 %e,
later it. reacted to title and remained steady
around 41%® 4P)(jc. at which figure it closed. A
larger arrival of nogs than was expected made
iirm islons weak, July lard opening 5c lower, at
and 70, and July ribs also opened 5c lower, at
$7 12)4. Afterward lighter receipt* of hogs at
other points and an abundance nr selling made
provisions firm up a little. In the course of an
hour July lard went up to §7 75 and July ribs to
§7 20. In the afternoon the market strength iu
w heat an 1 com had its Influence on provisions.
July lard closed at §6 85 bid and July ribs at
§- 32% bid.
