WHEAT DECIDEDLY HIGHER,
EXPORT CLEARANCEs AND A BULL1sH
SENTIMENT CAUSED A GAIN OF 1c.
Corn Advanced 3-sc, Oats 1-sc, Both In
huenced by the strength in Wheat,
and Provisions Closed with
out Change.

Chicago, oct 1l.-Wheat had evidently
become tired of being jumped on and turn
ed viCiously against its assalants. After
very weak start at decline of &c per
bushel 1t became strong and advanced 20
above its opening value. 1t closed with Il
net gain for the day of 1c per bushel Corn.
oats and provisions all stiffened their backs
in the encoura ging example OF the wheat
market. October corn is sc higher and
May oats isc higher Provisions recovered
Il slight loss they made at the opening.
Wheat ruled somewhat irregular selling
at one time half cents below the close
yesterday and then 1lsc higher, but most
Of the time the trading quotations were
considerably above the close last night.
There very little in the way of news
and prices were governed almost entirely
by local sentiment Early cables were
quoted I'D lower but Notwithstanding this
the tone of the market here was strong
and sales We're made during the first hour
at lc advance over the opening with Ar
mour's brokers said to be good buyers and
the local scalping element also on the buy
ing side. The export clearances Were more
liberal and We're strong feature for the
bulls. But the strength which was finally
developed started a good deal of selling,
partly to secure profits on long stuff and
partly for the short account and prices
gradually went off some. Pardridge, Ros-
encranz, Cudahy, Brosseau and others
were free sellers and some weakness re-
suited, but later in the day the bull senti-
ment grew quite bold and there was a
rally of lac from the low point. Early
sentiment was generally inclined to b bull
ish and while there was nothing very de-
cisive in the way Of news to favor that
side yet the tendency was upward, De
cember sold early as low as 593sp591ac, split
up 10 6O12c, off to 6oisc, then up irregularly
to 6l1sc at noon. The market reacted
slightly on renewed liquidation but ended
at 60i.c.
Corn ruled quiet, but firm, influenced
some by the stronger feeling in wheat and
by the Indications of rain. which may cur
tail receipts The government report yes
terday indicates a crop of about 2ooOo0o0
bushels less than expected a month ago.
May sold early at 2Sa4G29lsc. and October at

oats were quiet and about featurelesS
but held steady and firm with wheat, May
sold 201s02O2sc, and October at lTa4l71sc.
closing at the high prices.
Provisions We're lower at the opening
than at The closing Of the previous days day
to improve and closed steady without
material change in prices for the day, Jan
uary pork closed at SS429 compared with
S94O Yesterday. Lard IS unchanged, Jan

the day before.

MEAT FOR THE PLUMBER.
Not often such an Opportunity as This
Presents Itself

Not often such an Opportunity as This
Presents Itself
The following story is not very cred
liable. especially as it is laid not far
from Evanston, says the Chicago Re
cord It is said that one of the water
pipes was shut off to allaw some re-
pairs to De m6le Immediately some
of the families supplied by that pipe
imagined that the house pipes We're
stopped up 50 they sent for plumber.
AS soon rs he received the first call
the plumber Investigated and learned
that the water would be turned into
the pipes again i'm about three hours.
During that three hours he received
seven calls and went 20 seven houses,
where ne made a great deal of noise
hammeriug on the pipes. At each
place he told the family not to tribe
with the fauctes while ne was away.
After the water had been turned in
To- the pipes he revisited the houses,
did some more mystifying work and
succeeded i'm inducing the water to
run from the faucets.
Then ne collected seven large bills
for repairs and his victims We're none
the wiser. Such is the story.
