Wheat Up Ten Cents Day Of Bedlam In Chicago Pit
Wheat rose ten cents at the close in Chicago marking the worst crop scare since 1870. A flood of orders to buy followed reports of possible drought and reduced acreage, sending prices to new highs before cooling. A prominent St. Louis trader faced margin calls and one firm reportedly went under the hammer as others reeled from the market turmoil. An expert from Springfield suggested a future weather upturn could restore some crop value, but farmers and millers doubted any recovery would offset losses from the harsh winter. The Gifford firm faced suspension amid rumors its debts would not exceed ten thousand dollars, while maintaining a generally balanced market stance overall.
