THE PRODUCE UARKETS.
CHICAGO.
Chicago, April 18.—There was vory active
trade in wheat to day accompanied by sharp
decline In prices. Offerings were very large
and came ostensibly from tne bull clique. The
feeling was very nncer^v.u and nervous. Re-
port of rain storms throughout the winter
wheat belt created an easy feeling, but the
market appeared to hinge very largely unon
the course of recognized bull leaders. The
first sales of May wheat were made at 84084*0,
and the market ruled steady for half an hour,
when a sharp break to 82*c followed under
very large offerings and which served to cause
a semi panic among small holders who had
been purchasing In expectation of a May
squeeze. Moderate buying caused a reaction
to t3*e, followed by another sharp decline to
82* c, succeeded by another rally to 83*c,to be
again succeeded by a drop to 82*®82%c, where
the maiket rested for the day. A decrease of
1,£04,610 bushels in the visible supply was
somewhat larger than had bocn expected and
had a sustaining influence on sales for a short
time. Clearings lrom the seaboard were large,
aggregating 591,0(0 bushels, while receipts at

NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE.
New York, April 18.—The stock market was
considerably more active to day. Near half
the business was In Reading. Dealings were
generally of a professional character, buying
being principally by cliques and selling by
room traders, who are inclined to be bearish.
Outside of Reading, trading was only moder-
ate, and coal stocks, as a class, were foature-
less. Lackawanna was active, but Jcraoy Cen-
tral, though firm, was more quiet. Foit Worth
and Denver w as also a special feature, being
stiong and active, although manipulation was
apparent. London did little or nothing.
Trunk lines and grangers nuived within a very
narrow range upon small transactions. Read-
ing was bought freely by Philadelphia parties,
and there was a revival of the report of a
probable settlement with the holders of the
first series of fives.
The opening was somewhat irregular,
though generally steady, whilo Jersey Central
was an exception with an advance of 1 per
cent. The general list was quiet and barely
llim in early trading, while Heading, Laeka-
wanna, Fort Worth and Denver and Richmond
and West Point were active and strong, the
gains i anglng up to I per cent. After 12 o'clock
a slow but steady yielding of values, whish
lasted with but few Interruptions till the
close, occurred, and the close was quiet and
lather heavy, near the opening figures gener-
ally. Sales, 396,295 shares.
Railroad bonds moderately active. The
market follow ed c'osely the course of dealings
In shares. Closing prices show irregular
changes generally.
Government and state bonds dull and
steady.
