, E’UCaoo. Nov. 15.—The wheat market ex
hibited all the symptoms of a I rue panic for
over an hour, but the 3iiasms, though violent
were not long continued,, and daring the last
hour there was a rocov ry of i.enrl y 2Wc from
the lowest price of the day. with the closing
figures slios mg a decline since yesterday of ’4o
in December and >4O in May. ‘Com and oats
w ere dragged down, while wheat appeared to
be in the throes of dissolution, but came up
again like corks when the weight of the panic
was lified, and each closed with moderate
gains Provisions were dull, and while averag
ing lower, closed with very little loss since yes
terday. Tne wheat market, while free from
complications attending upoa tho financial
situation, as it appeared to be for about fifteen
minutes near the opening, gave some symp
toms of returning confidence among local spec
ulators. In fact, quite a general feeling that
the end of the decline had already taken place
was apparent, some loading commission men
so expressing themselves. How far these opin
ions were from gauging tho probabilities or the
day’s fluctuations, after the course of the mar
ket h.d been witnessed, December wli-at
started at 91kic, with tho pressure coming prin
cipally from the selling side, and it quickly
declined to 94c. For a short time fluctuations
played nervously around 94c. touching M%c
selling sparingly at 04)60 in the course of its
several changes. Trading during the time re
ferred to was not very heavy, and the lulls
which took place appeared to be in the direc
tion of firmness. It was observed, however by
students of the blackboard in stock offices that
these securities were breaking in New York,
and on this hint nimble runners in the wheat
pit commenced to unload, and in a few minutes
a decline in December to 9346 c took place.
There was only a momentary re.-t ct the figures
named, when it was followed by a further dr< m
to 8246 c. There was a hard and exciting
struggle, lasting two or three minutes. b“j’ore
the pressure of offerings could cover some buy
ing which such a profitable deoline brought in
favor of aborts, but it was overcome in the end
aud then ensued one of those periods of wild
delirium which occur perhaps ut intervals of
a year or two in the wheat pit. Buyers were
wanted, but they would not make a move, and
for a time competition In underbidding to se
cure buyers, such ns knocked prices from un
der so rapidly that it was impossible to execute
the hundreds of orders at the limits of exhaust
ed margins, and the decline was not arrested
until December wheat was selling anywhere
from 90j6®91c and May at The re
port of the financial embarrassment of Paring
Bros, of London was the cause of the wild
stampede. A reaction from the lowest prices
of the day wa3 not indicative of any very
great accession of confidence, but the market
during the last hour of trading was free from
the panicky feeling which had previously been
characterized. The price of December held
around 9264 ®93e for a considerable time, and
the resting figures were 93);,c for December and
>1 0056 for May. The stocks of corn were so
sir.aU and tho receipts of to-day aud promised
for Monday were so light that holders were
very firm, and shorts, though V(?ry aggres ive
bad hard work to cause a break of -Kc. even
when wheat was dropping about at that rate
per minute. The opening was firmer than pre
vious days, closing with May %e higher. There
was a further advance of Me before a reaction
ary movement set in, during which latt“r
period the price broke l?gc from the top, but
recovered of this immediately aft&r, and
dusn#tha remainder of thes-ssion this price
was maintained at some improvement over
yesterday’s closing. Oats were active, but
weaker and lower early in the day. owing to the
weakness and decline in wheat and corn and
free selling by longs. Prices for May declined
l)4c from yestsrdav’s close and touched 1334 c
Later in the day a firmer feeling gradually de
veloped and prices advanced Isjjc. The market
closed steady at full outside figures and at a
fair g lin on yesterday. Pork was rather active
at irregular prices. Opening sales wore made
about at the closing figures of yesterday, anl a
reduction of 5c was quickly submitted to. Later
prices rallied 7j4@loc, but more pressure to
sell caused a week feeling and prices receded
17)4®c. Toward tho close prices rallied
7H®loc and closed quiet, in lard trading was
moderately active. Prices declined s®? t,c aud
closed steady at outside figures. In short ribs a
fairly active business was transacted. Prices
ruled 2>4c and closed steady at outside figures.
