FROM OIL TO WHEAT
The Latter Makes a Rapid Advance in Price.
THE rORMER COMES DOWN.
A Spurt oil the Chicago JSxchange Creates Considerable Kxolement, but It Mibsides lietore the Closing Hour—Kapiil Fluctuations i:i New York Tlie Oil Kxcitemeut
Ilapidly Dying Out. CHICAGO, April 2'-).—After a wild spurt lit the opening and a slump in the middle of the session, wheat elosed 1 3-8 cents higher l'or May yesterday. Heavy buying largely by shorts caused the advance. May coru closed three-fourths cent higher, May oats one-eighth cent lower, and provisions at slight advances.
Wheat starred up with a wild rush, opening trades being: at 1 1-2 cents advance. Every one wanted to get May at (51 1-2 and July at (i2 1-2, and sellers even at such tempting advances over Saturday's prices were few. Almost instantly 62 cents was being bid May and 1)0 cents for July, and at it was only then that it was found possible by the greater number of the brokers having buying orders to find plenty of sellers.
The onrush to buy had obtained such an impetus, however, that (i2 1-4 and 03 1-4 for May and Jul}' respectively were paid before trading got into a regular swing. The last named prices proved the culminating point of the advance, and it took only live minutes from the start to reach it. The excitemeat gradually subsided until the closing hour.
Incitement in Now York.
NKW YORK, April 23.—The activity in wheat yesterday brought to mind the scenes of other days, when fluctuations of 3 to 5 cents and transactions in eight figures were common. The market opened 2 1-8 cents higher at one bound, with an excited trailing that ran sales up to over 13,000,000 bushels by noon and to 42,9^5,000 bushels for the entire day's businoBS.
Local shorts whose margins gave out were the most eager of tiu early buyers, but brokers had big orders from outside speculators and European operators which were all one. way and prices shot right, up to 05 i'-S cents for May. against (53 5-s cents, the final iigurcs of Saturday. No one .see]tied able to explain the advance beyond, its being that result of and overflow of bull sentime lit: with which the marl-et has been charge^ for two weeks or more past.
At noon the market was 1 1-1 cents off from the top under heavy offerings of long wheat, but all the strength returned again in the afternoon, and with increased activity values moved up to the toj) notch again and closed strong. The iinal burst of strength was attri«uted by some to the decided advance in late continental cables, coupled with reports of unfavorable crop news from Germany.
CRUDE OiL COMING DOWN. Still It Is Not Kxju'cti'd to Get as I^ow as It 3 fas iiton.
CijKVKLAXD, Apr 23.—"Crude oil is going down a Jittio," was rhe statement at the office of Scholield, Schurmer & Tcagle, one of the largest independent refining firms in the country. "The Standard paid x.2.25 on Saturday for credit balances that is fresh oil, and. yesterday offered w.2.10. Certificate oil opened at .95 yesterday. Although tlie Standard lost control of the market as Die rise came they have regained control, and are now shaking tlie oil out of the little fellows, as one broker expressed it. ••The Standard is dropping the prices a little every day to scare other people. Some bought on top of the market, and held on for a time, but the.}' are now selling out at a loss to save themselves from the effects of a greater decline. Brokers are all at sea, and don't know what to do. What would follow would be a mere guess. I do not know whether prices will rise or fall. I do believe, however, that we will not in a long time see oil go down to where it has been during the last two years.''
New Well Drilled In.
ST. MAKY'S, (_., April 23.—Anoil well, just in at St. Mary's reservoir, starts off' witli 200 barrels per day. The excitement is greatly intensilieil by this news. The danger of a scarcity of oil wells supplies is agitating the oil operators and leasing is made with difficulty 011 account of tht limited time of contracts and the impossibility of obtaining supplies sufficient to fullill the same. A number of wells are now under way, some of which will bo in in a few days.
Only a Small Amount Sold.
PiTTsniJKO, April 23.—Oil opened here at $1.95 bid, and was offered at $1.98 down to §1.90 without any sales. Only 2,000 barrels were sold on the Oil City exchange. The Standard again made a reduction in the. price for credit balances of 15 cents to S2.10.
Drop of Ton.
LIMA, O., April 23.—The Standard Oil company reduced the price of Lima oil yesterday 10 cents per barrel, making North Lima, $1.07 South Lima, $1.05, and Indiana, 90 cents per barrel. The price of Pennsylvania was reduced 15 cents ner barrel.

The front of the house Vai badly wrecked, all the windows shattered and a big hole was blown through the roof. That the wreck was the work of some st riking employe of rhe Tudor iron works, is the generally accepted explanation of the crime, for one of the house's occupants "was J. E.

5/^1 Great Wants the Cash, LoisuoX, April .23.—The Chronicle says of the report that Nicaragua is willing to cede Corn island to Croat Britain: "The offer of Com island instead of the payment of a money indemnity looks like a 'plant.' on rhe part of our Nicaraguan friends, for they know that its acceptance would call out against- us all the champions of Monroeism. We don't want any trouble witii the United States over this peculiar doctrine, and therefore it would be better if we stuck to our money demands. If Nicaragua wishes to sell Corn island she had better offer it to the Americans or some other people."

"We are rejoiced at the recent vietories which have enhanced, the glory of our empire. At the same time we are aware that the end of rhe road, which must be traversed by the empire in the march of civili/.ation, is still far distant and remains yet to be attained. We therefore hope, in common with ir loyal subjects, that we shall alw vs guard against, selt'-coiitenteunoss, but- in a spirit of modesty and humility strive to perfect our military defense without falling into extreme. In short it is our wish that the ivernment and the people alike shall. work to a common end, and more subjects of all classes strive each in his sphere for the purpose of laying the foundation of permanent
prosperity. "it is hereby delinitoly made known that no countenance will be given by us to such as, through conceit at the recent victories, may oli'er in-ui.lt to another state or injure our relations with friendly powers especially as regards China. "After tlie exchange of the ratilications of the treaty of peace, friendship should be restored and endeavors made to increase more than ever before the I relations of good neighborhood. I "ft- is our pleasure that our subjects pay duo respect to these, our expressed wishes."

The delegates ret uri tion yesterday instriHTcd to hold out for (j'.i cents a ton if a conference was held witn the coal
operators.
As tiie operators miormed the convention on Saturday that 00 cents a ton was the best rate that could be paid, it looks as if the strike will be continued until the miners come down in the price demanded for mining.
A member of the operators' committee, when he heard the delegates to the convention insisted on a O'.i-cent rate, said it would be useless to confer with tlie miners' committee, as the operators would not pay 09 cents.
When the operators refused to go into a conference the convention decided to conrinv .' the strike for the O'.l-cent rate.
The operators then announced that all the big mines in the Pittsburg district would resume next Monday at the 00eent rate with negroes brought from North Carolina.
