meditation on uncertainties of specula-
ton at the close of to-day's wheat mar
ket; NO one was found who professed
to know exactly what caused the bulge
which took place, but there was no dis
putting the strength that existed. The
market was most irregular one during
the morning, and that fact communicated
an uneasy feeling to the minds of those
who had sold without previously securing
the stun There was no particular bull
the first trading developed a fair degree
OF strength. Reports of gold shipments to
Europe then began to pour in, the amount
ranging from S4,50O,O00 to 100000. The
latter figure was, doubtless, an exaggera-
ton, but 1t was not without some effect
The market declined on this information
but as the session drew near an end
tnere was an all-round desire to cover
snort wheat, In consequence of which
prices very quickly assembled. December
wheat opened from 575s@57Ac, sold be-

Use higher than yesterday Cash wheat
was unchanged, the nominal close being

TACT the steadineSS of prices attracted
considerable attention. May corn opened
at 2S3sc, sold between that and 1850 clos
ing at 29A0292sc-3sc higher than yester-
day. Cash corn, AM52c higher.
Oats-This market was but a reflection
OF the action of the speculative grain.
When wheat and corn were easy, oats
We're likewise devoid of strength, but
ing the minor one kept in their wake.
May closed sc higher than yesterday.
Cash oats sold at unchanged prices, but
closed nominally firm
Provisions-A settled firmness reigned
In product to-day. The first business was
with reference to the strength of live
nnog prices, but when business slackened
the tone drifted into steadiness, grain,
no doubt helping to sustain prices. At
me close October pork was cents higher,
2l2 cents higher Domestic markets were
quiet, whilst theg foreign advices showed
little moret strength.
Leading futures ranged as follows:
