Chicago, Jan. A.-Fhe bulls have all along
buoyed up their courage by quoting the adage
Its long,4ane that has no turning" 10
day seemed to be the turning point. Under
the influence of the encouraging news with
which the air was rife, the wheat market
was about 10D54e higher than yesterdays
close, weakened and declined @d1zc, became
strong and advanced 1%c, receding slightly
and closing as above, Corn was fairly active
and firm. Price changes followed those of
wheat, the opening figures being at slight
advance over yesterdays close, eased OF SO
NC, rallied BG1ae, and the close was about
&c better than yesterday. Oats were active
and firm The market advanced steadily
from the opening, and at the close showed q
net advance OF 1a0D5sc. Provisions-Enc
aging reports from the yards, which said that
all parties were buying live hogs and that
prices were higher, was the reason for good
healthy opening OF the product. Prices ruled
firm all day the strength in wheat no doubt
having great deal to do with the speculative
advance in the market.
