December Wheat Goes Up Like
a Rocket on the Chicago
Board.
Reached a Higher Figure Than
at Any Time but Once
Since 1888.
Bull Crowd Shipping Wheat
East by Rail as Fast as
Received.

CHICAGO. Dec. 1O.-In the first Is
minutes OF trading December wheat
sold up to $l.O5, the highest price in
this market for years. The opening wa
extremely nervous, bids at the start
ranging all the way from $l.O11a to
to Sl.O4. The bull clique, headed by
Allen Greer and the Letter brokers
attempted to keep the market down by
selling, but shsrts were apparently
thoroughly frightened at last, and prob.
ably 100000 bushels was put on the
market before there was any let up. In
the meantime December had sold to
$l.O5, but a reaction ensued, the price
getting down to $l.031a. The general
belief that the December bulls intend
to carry the deal in that option to a
finish was strengthened by the an.
nouncement that contracts have been
closed to ship all the wheat east all.rail
when delivered.
3. pI:l1c Seized Shorts Again.
About 1l:45 a. M. the shorts got on
the rampage again while the market in
the meantime had recovered to $1:O5
having sold down to $l.031a cents. An
attempt to buy a moderate line at that
price revealed the fact that the market
was bare. One dollar and five and one.
half cents was bid with nc takers.
The the market jumped one.half a cent
at a time to Sl.08, when a little wheat
dribbled out. Back it went to $1.0634
but only for q moment when it turned
again jumping to $1.O9 in three bids.
There, thor oughly frightened shorts
were enabled to buy and the market
quieted down, reacting to $l.O71a.
There was apparently a general be.
lief among traders that the December
bulls intend to control the dealing in
that option. This opinion was strength.
ened by the announcement that ar.
rangements had been completed where
the small contract wheat will be shipped
East by all rail as soon as delivered
here. thus keeping the market bare.
This announcement had great weight
with the shorts who for the first time
displayed anxiety.
May Was Active, Too.
December was not alone in its display
of strength. May was very strong in
sympathy, opening q to % cents higher
at Yl1s cents and advancing at once tc
921a cents. January was also firm and
sold up to 81 cents on the belief that
January shorts will be in a bad way il
the December clique moves away all
the cash wheat. Bullish news was not
wanting. Northwest receipts were
moderate, 8l5 cars against 753 last weel
and 67S a year ago. Liverpool wa.
strong up IS pence before the opening
here. On the other hand The Price
Current report was rather bearish
Statistical news, however, was rele
gated to the background in the excite
ment over the rapidly developing De
cember wheat deal.

LIMA, Peru, Dec. l0.-President Pier.
ola has vetoed the measure recently
passed by congress lega1izing non.
Catholic marriages in Peru, and provid.
ing for the registration Of such mar.
riages. He gives as his reason the fact
that the bill only authorized the regis.
tration of foreigners without providing
for native born Peruvians descended
from Protestants who hold to the reli.
gion of their fathers. The president
action has called forth much adverse
criticism. .
