wheat market to-day, something that was
thoroughly appreciated by the operators.
1t was a bull market throughout. the first
news tending in that direction being the
weekly crop bulletin from North Dakota,
which said the conditions were favorable
for rust, and that there was great scar
city of water. In the last ten minutes
there was some excitement caused by war
talk IL being reported that Turkish troops
had been ordered to mobilize. There was
an advance on this information, and the
market closed in a perturbed condition.
September wheat opened from 55Rc to
555sc, sold between 56Ac, and 5512c, clos
ing at 56A Hd1c higher than yesterday.
Cash wheat was steady, and followed the

weather and the Intellectual efforts of
shorts to secure any, and remained steady
in sympathy with the advance in wheat.
September corn opened at 27Ac, sold be-
tween 281sc and Z71sc, closing at 2S1sc, 7sc
higher than yesterday Cash corn was

a quiet but strong feeling ruled. The
trading was of a local character. Sep
TENDER oats closed / cent higher that yes
terday Cash oats were stronger and ffic
to nc in advance of Mondays price.

this morning, partly on an advance in
