rather firm tone in wheat to-day, notwith-
standing the fact that nearly all the outside
news seemed Of a bearish nature The talk
of shortage i'm storage room led good many
10 think that If the crowd was so largely
short, as many believed, and the clique held
so much Of the wheat in store, il might be
diRiculUt to get enough wheat here to supply
the needs OF the shorts and thus give the
CLIQUE big advantage. This caused some
Of the timid shorts to cover. and as there
was less selling pressure the demand caused
considerable iirmness for a time. Gables

was 100000 bushels larger than week
ago. and the weather IN the west ana south
west was favorable, with receipts every
where quite generous. There was some

was easy at the start on the heavy local re-
ceipts, but became trmer IN sympathy with
the strength in wheat. Oats, dull. Provi-
