CHICAGO, Oct. There was strong feel
ing in wheat to-day, the result OF frmer
cables, and an advance in the quotations at
Liverpool for all grades of American wheat. The
market here opened &c higher than last nights
closing. at 8Sc for November, with few sales at
So5c. Some big lots changed hands at these fig
ures, but after the first half hour the trading
was less excited and under some pressure. prices
fell back to S7ac, with few sales at 87sc. but
rose again and closed on the regular Board at
ST. S7sc. The receipts were generally lighter

domestic milling purposes was good. There was
steady buying throughout the entire session,

trading fgures or nearly the highest price dur
ing the entire day. Among the corn traders the

vancing to 43sc and closing at the outside figure
