advances at Paris and Antwerp equal
to from 29sc to SBc per bushel at the
former and to 40 per bushel at the lat
ter. The news from New York about
the foreign demand for wheat was quite
as strong as 1t was yesterday, Every
one who offered wheat by cable last
night received acceptances and requests
! for further offers. New York took all
the cash wheat offered from Detroit, ac-
cording TO q dispatch from the latter
city and message emanating from st,
Louis said that London cablegram re-
ported locusts In Santa Fe province, Ar
gentina. The origin of the cabiegram
being rather obscure, not much atten-
ton was paid TO 1t, but the great for
| eign demand for cash wheat and the
strength of the continental markets re-
newed the bulllsh feeling and the de-
cline that followed the first advance,
was recovered from the price of De-
cember once more reaching 96%c. At
that price realizing sales again became
quite heavy and the market gradually
declined to 95Ac, where 1t closed.
Corn was irregular, The market OPP
ened firm on the dry, hot weather and
continued crop damage reports, the re-
ports to-day being the worst so far re-
ceiVed. This caused some covering by
shorts and a slight advance, which was
lost, however, when the weather bu-
reau predicted rains in the corn belt
and n general break In the hot spell. A
slight recovery ensued later with wheat.
Atlantic port clearances were $4,000
bushels and New Yorkreported strong
foreign demand and heavy sales for
export. Receipts were 1929 cars. De-
cember ranged from 334c to 32&@827sc
and closed at S3c bid, 1sQssc below yes
terday's close.
Oats were relatively firm almost hold
Ing their own, although there was a
break OF &c IN corn at one time, The
speculative trade was very moderate
and fluctuations We're confined to q mar
row range The shipping demand was
large, sustaining factor. Local receipts
were 364 cars. New York wired $4,000
bushels taken for export. December
ranged between 20%c and 2lc, closing
at 2O%c asked, an advance OF hc,
Provisions were very quiet, The mar
ket ruled easy, the result of the yellow
fever scare. There was some support,
but not so energetic as yesterday, the
lt5ull btlhH IA blduuui NSNlihH' AAe VIC
cline In corn was weakening influence,
