5p. m.-The wheat market was irmer and
more active To-day, ana an advance IN prices
was scored. which was well sustained. The
posting of the visible supply showed an in
crease of a million bushels. which was not as
large as was expected. British cables were
again quoted weak. The reports here from
the interior show a short falling OF. In
spring wheat there is an increase. The dry
| and hot weather has prevented farmers from
| putting in tue usual amount Of fall sowing
| and they are predicting q decreased acreage
| for next year. This knowledge Is deemed the
| moving cause for the advance to-day, and the
hullish tendency shown IN the market for the
/ first time in several weeks. The regular
| market closed sc over yesterday, and at the
afternoon session again rose nc and closed al
| T6.d76I4c for October. 7Sc for November, 79}sC
| for December. The feeling in corn was some
| what unsettled, and the aggregate trading
/ fair, The receipts were large, being 40 cars,
/ The market opened weaker, but rallied sharp
/ IL under a good speculative demand, with the
| shors covering. Prices advanced nc for
