Wheat was moderate1y active, ana quite nIln
at an average advance Of 1c per bu on yester-
days prices, though quoted easier in New York.
The market was strongest early, being excited
by the report that only 80 cars we're inspected in
for Monday; it eased down subsequently when
the number Of 167 cars WAS posted, and New
York was announced dull. But there was lively
demand, especially for this month, which kept
up prices, though there was not much buying
for shipment. The demand was chiefly from the
shorts for November, which WAS shown by the
fact that seller the month was at premium
over seller December, whereas the latter was at
= Ac premium two days ago. Deliveries Of wheat
have been very Light during the past few days,
and some Of the shorts seem to have gained the
round by the 9oth, as 5ail-shipments will
be on the increase while receipts are
expected to continue light. Seller the month
opened at S1.06A, declined to 9l.o5X, advanced
to SLOT, and closed at $1.06. Seller December
