CHICAGO, February 2l.-Inere was
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 in 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
difficult 10 get enough wheat here to supply
the needs of the shorts and thus give the
CLIQUE big advantage Thi caused some
of me tiRid shorts 10 cover. and as there
was less selling pressure the demand caused
considerable iirmness for time. Caoies
were easier. the amount on ocean passage
was l. 44O.O00 bushels larger than week
ago. and the weather IN the west and south
west was favorable, with receipts every
where quite generous. There was some
selling pressure during the last half hour IN
which Partridge was conspicuous. Corn
was easy at the start on the heavy local re-
ceipts. but became hrmer in sympathy with
the strength in wheat. Oats, dull. Provl-
