Chicago. oct. 3l.-Bears in wheat had
rude awakening during the last hour OF
to-day's session, although previous to that
time their path was not Strewn with roses.
Yesterdays weakness had imbued Shorts"
with considerable courage and owing TO
the fact that rain fell in many parts of
the winter wheat belt last night, exhibited
an obstinacy that did not agree with the
programme. Afternoon reports Of advices
on the Liverpool curb owing to war talk
had the effect of agitating the crowd and
so offerings were extremely light and a
sharp advance resulted. december wheat
opened from 5Sss 10 5sizc, advanced 60c, and
closed at 595sM60c-l1sc higher than yes
terday. Cash wheat was irregular closing
firm
Corn was steady to firm, as it has been
for the past fewdays, but unfortunately
the business was far from being active or
influential Prices made moderate gains
for which the strength Of wheat obtained
the credit. The wet weather predicted in
different sections was construed as being
a bullish factor. or quite the opposite of
what it was in wheat. or the reason that
receipts were likely to be retard-
ed thereby. May corn opened at
2954c advanced to Z3tzc, where it closed-Kc
higher than yesterday. Cash corn was
steady to firm, without essential change
in prices.
