final passage of the tariff bill. AT the

Chicago.

Chicago, uly 20.-In no one day for sew
eral years has so much wheat been work
ed for export at Chicago. Eight hundred
thousand bushels in round numbers was
the total of today'S reported sales for for

near the close on what had been alternate
ly hear and bull market. Great offers CT
wheat from commission houses on every
bulge characterized the trade TO within
twenty minutes of the close. All hands
then started to buy, and only those with
long wheat bought at the lower prices Of
fered. In The wheat market all was en-
citemcnt. Corn was weak on continued
favorable weather west, but rallied with
wheat closing 1-Sc lower. Oats follow
ed the same course. Provisions were firm
and showing gains of 10M12 LIE.
The strength with which wheat closed
yesterday was renewed at the opening to-
day, with 1-4u1-2c advance in prices.

those offerings absorbed the price took Il
higher flight and gave those who wished
to do SO an opportunity to realize re for

advantage of che chance and had another

said reports of wheat in central Russia

extremely irregular until the important
