CHICAGO, July 30.-A Sensational bulge
in wheat overshadowed all other operations
on Change to-day. The instant the bell
tapped for the opening, there ensued ire
mendous clamor. Prices opened 3 cents
over the close at noon Saturday in New
York and 13c higher at st. Louis. The
cables were very bullish. The weather on
the othe side was unusually hot and wet
and hurtful t. crops. After the first bulge,
prices reacted about 1ac. About noon o
second bulge sent the prices even higher
than before. Then prices eased on realiz-
ing sales, and there they rested until
shortly before the close. Nevertheless, the
market at final movents was strong, and
the best prices we're at nearly the outside
for the session. In corn there was not
much doing, and prices were shade lower.
Oats were only fairly active, and prices
confined within narrow limits. Provisions
opened the week with no abatement in the
bullish tendency they have lately exhibit
ed. Trading was active and more general
in its character than on any day since the
upward movement was inaugurated. A
large amount Of product, especially pork,
was bought by outsiders, presumably
against outstanding short contracts.
