CHICAGO. March Wheat turned strong
this afternoon on a runner that the govern
ment had decided 10 sell bonds for the pur-
pose Of replenishing the supply Of gold
coin. The stimulus continued its effects
even after the receipt Of a contradiction.
Nearly everything seemed to be against
the high price OF wheat al the start, the
weather was springlike all over the coun-
try, cables were lower and weak, domestic
markets showed a marked decline, and the
New York stock market was again demon
allied by the high premium for money.
The impending government record of
stocks in farmers hands and the uncer-
tainty attending it was also depressing
factor. II was while matters were in this
condition during the last hour that the
sharp rally was caused by the report, after
ward denied, that the government would
issue $50, coo gold bearing bonds. Corn was
dull but firm, and improved sc. There
was moderate trade IN oats. Provisions
were considerably unsettled to-day, but the
average was decidedly lower Flour
