! CHICAGO, October 19.-Elevator people,
who have 81, 600, 600 bushels Of wheat sold
] for December delivery, and have it in
/ hand, were today busy on the market lay
/ ing their plans for getting and keeping out
the whole pile from December TO May.
! The assertion is made that their buying Of
! December worked up the crowd, and May
was sold while the market was on boil.
| Although May and December are only at
I 7LIc spread, which would scarcely pay six
! per cent. on the money for carrying, by
adroitly working the market Sc premium
| or more is alleged to be secured. The firm
/ closing cables, the belief that the Senate
| fight will end satisfactory, the hrnness Of
outside markets and the nervousness Of
! shorts all helped, however, to close the
wheat market very strong. Corn and oats
were strong and provisions firm, with
everything higher at the close. Flour, un-
