Wheat was active and strong at an advance OF
1k@118c per bu as compared with Saturday, be-
ing in better demand both On options and for
quoted higher, while = better export movement
WAS reported from the eeabonrd, checked only
by the scarcity OF ocean freight room, and our
weather was bad, with small receipts. Add to
this the prospect Of = speedy outward move
ments by rail, with small current receipts, and
We have series OF Causes very encouraging to
holders. It Was stated to-day that adyicos re-
celved from many parts Of the wheat
raising 1a sections Of the Northwest noto
ter condition than has been anticipated,
| some Of It several inches high. on
! land reported not to have bean sown at al. But
| it seems they have suffered from q lack Of rain
in California, and that deliveries there are
| smaller u consequence, which fact Is probably
stimulating the European markets. The trad
| ing hero was more largely in the June option
| than heretofore, and tho market WAS steadier,
| owing to the fact that there wero numerous or
time the market touched that point it bounded
back slghtly under free offerings. The demand
for shipment Was better than last week, though
the lower grades wcre tho most urgently IN

Corn was more active, and generally strong
days pricos, under good demand, both specuia-
tie and for shipment. A large part Of
ns s oVar s& m S0n1 y into aas aa ea ae
demand for the latter caused tho premium
to widen. as good many parties were anxious
to provide against deliveries which thoy expect
to be made in the latter part Of this weok, about
% 1noving-day:" Receipts we're more liberal, but
the weakness in freights is probably operating
to make shippers more willing to take hold, as

Oats ats we're ' more act active @ and A@><o higher, in
sympathy with wheat and corn. There we're ser-
