dwarfed every other influence in wheat to-
day causing moderate advance In prices
part of which was afterwards lost. Although
the gain made was not by any means an i'm
portant one, nevertheless the feeling of un-
certainty, regarding the reason for the sum
moning of the ministers, left the market in a
rather nervous condition at the close There
is no DOUBT but that any serious political com
plications abroad would form an important
! factor in directing the course of the cereal
markets. December wheat opened at 53Isc
| sold between 53as and 52B sc, closing at 53c-4C
! higher than yesterday. Cash wheat was I'M
| changed.
Corn-The same feeling that pervaded the
! wheat trade obtained on corn at the opening
| to day. Shorts" deemed 1t good policy to
| cover on the war talk and in doing so gave
| prices just tho assistance needed. An advance
| OF full cent over Yesterdays close was made
| but the appreciation was not fully sustained
| the bull fever having worn off before the
| close. May corn opened at 49Ac to 495ac, ad-
vanced to 50Ac, eased of and closed at 49a1 -
| 9sGlMc higher than yesterday. Cash corn was
IN urgent demand by sugar refiners. Prices
were HQlc higher.
Oats~Nhat was good for wheat and corn
| was likewise OF service to oats. There was a
good rally in prices of this grain, which was
succeeded by the same reaction that was seen
! in the other markets. The close on May was
| Ac higher than yesterday.
| Provisions safeguarding decline In the
| hog market the product sold up with the grain
| advance and afterwards declined when mar
kets weakened. offerings were light at the
| opening, and as II was probable that the sell
| ing yesterday was too enthusiastic, there was
| a desire on the part OF some of the shorts
| to cover this morning which benefited values
! perceptibly. The close was SC higher than
| yesterday for January pork; 21k@5c higher
| for January lard, and 21ac higher for January
| ribs.
