CHICAGO, Oct 27.-The visible supply state
ment of wheat. compiled by both the New
York and Chicago statisticars, was a surprise to
the trade. The former statement made the in
crease less than half million bushels while the
latter made 1t somewhat more than 900 600
bushels. 1t had been estimated that the report
might disclose an increase Of fully 100000
bushels, while very few traders appeared to ex-
pect less than 800 900 bushels increase The
effect of the posting was to at once infuse life
and strength into the market and the starting
prices at the opening of Change fully 1c
over the closing yesterday afternoon. Deem
Der began at $780, but under free offerings sold
off to Size, rose to 884c, fell back again
to 874c, and then under good buying, again
advanced to 08ac, and closed at 88sc the regular
board. The statement that farmers deliveries
had fallen off fully one-half in the Northwest,
indicating lighter receipts from this time for
ward, was one OF the reasons assigned for the
renewed activity and strength shown by the mar
ket. Trading was very light in the afternoon.
and prices declined l C, closing, for the day. Sc
