CHICAGO MARKET
The Days Transactions OF the Board o

The Days Transactions OF the Board OF
Trade
CHICAGO, Feb. 13.-Wheat showed de-
cided strength and sold up nearly cent
from the close Tuesday. The start was
somewhat easier and there was sale at
nc below Tuesday, but there was good
class of buying and rather moderate offer
ings, the price was gradually advanced,
and before noon the gain was over cent.
The early cables were weak, but the sec
ond one reported some improvement. New
York sent generous buying orders and q
fair foreign demand was reported there,
and the clearances from that port were re-
ported at 265, 900 bushels in wheat and
flour. The local talent was largely on the
buying side, and nearly all the big specu'
lators we're said to be taking wheat very
freely. The falling off in the receipts at
Minneapolis and Duluth for the past
two days, S22 cars. compared with
900 cars last week and the fact
that much of the growing wheat Is unpro-
tected by snow and liable to injury from
a sudden freeze, made shorts nervous and,
taken in connection with the strength dis
played, caused good deal of covering.
The liberal local shipments by rail and the
action of The Wesier Freight association
in rate cutting to Kansas points one'naIf
or IL cents per 100 pounds, was instru'
mental in adding to the bullish sentiment.
Corn was quiet but strong, influenced by
the strength in Wall street and was also
helped by the storm, which is expected to
cut off receipts. Oats were quiet but frm'
and closed shade higher. Sympathy
with wheat was the main cause of the ad-
vance. Provisions opened firm at a slight
advance and gradually worked higher. The
strength displayed by wheat, and the small
run of hogs, gave the market an unex-
pected firmness.
The leading futures closed as follows:
Wheat, No. 2-February, 6isHc; May, 66s6c;
