CHICAGO, Nov 14-wheat was quiet but prices
ruled higher than yesterdays closing. There
was no special outside news, and early tirmness
was attributed mainly to local influences.

to the local speculative element outside bust
ness being but slightly represented. Few
foreign orders to cover shorts were received. \
report to the effect that eastern milers had
bought up all of No. 2 red and No. spring IN
New York may have had some effect in causing
the early advance, but there was some distrust
| about the advance holding, and operators
traded carefully. The opening was 40 l1sc
nlgher than the closing figures yesterday ami
