CHICAGO, Sept. 19-Wheat showed an i'm
provement to-day in both demand and prices
About all the influences attending the market
were of 'bullish" tendency and brought about
the advance in accordance. These influences
were at times very strongly marked. The early
advance of &c or so was largely on re-
ported prairie fires, said to be raging
over several counties in Dakota and doing con-
siderable damage to wheat. This talk started
very general buying, the local crowd being led
by several large firms The purchases by these
firms were particularly heavy. The receipts,
being lighter than expected, were an additional
help to the bulls" Toward noon it became
very generally reported that Monday nights Wis
ible supply report would show a decrease of
about 5OO. 600 bushels, and on this there was
additional buying The advance was of steady
character, and aggregated shade over 1c, the
| whole tone of the market being strong until well
along toward the close, when values receded
8 a 1c on sales to realize The decline, however,
was subsequently recovered and the close was
steady and firm at the outside quotations for the
day. Corn showed very few, if any, features,
and was only moderately traded in. Offerings
were few orders of any size to fill.
Fluctuations were within very narrow
limits and the close quiet. Oats were
very slow and generally easier at lower
want of support. Provisions were quiet and
sharply higher soon after the opening, an
influx OF buying orders from the South and local
account in sympathy with the advance in wheat,
