CHICAGO. January ia sharp bulge
and considerable excitement marked the
close in the wheat pit to-day. The ease
with which prices for wheat have been ad-
vanced during the last few days in the alb
sence OF any decidedly bearish news, tend
ed to make a strong market. Shorts
showed a good deal Of nervousness and
were disposed 10 cover. while the scalping
seemed TO favor the bull side. There was
comparatively little wheat for sale and the
competition among buyers was sharp.
Gables were somewhat easier, but receipts
in the Northwest were smaller and there
were reports from the country that much
OF the wheat was bare OF snow with the
mercury ten degrees below zero and dam
age feared. Corn, stronger, active and
