Liverpool sent bcahles showing an advance
of sd there and thesreSult wild mar
ket here. In fact this wheat market has not
been so excited before in good many years.
The opening was m6re than &c higher than
Saturdays closeaAnd the price was immedi-
ately run ZIP to abeut DC above that close.
Then some heavy selling followed, which
brought the price; down cent or so. From
that time the fluctuations were wide and
rapid.
The cash wheat market was wild December
opening uD about &C over the close of Sat-
urday. Buyers were not willing to follow the
market to that extent and the difference be-
tween cash and December was widened to
&c. Selling wass liberal even at that figure.
Commission houses found a good deal of
wheat to sell such bulge and the spot
offerings were by, no means small. Following
