CHICAGO, Jan. 12.-Wheat sod below SOC
today, but rallied later and closed stronger
at S075c or &c above the closing figures OF
yesterday. Good cash business and renewed
reports of Argentine crop failure were fea-
lures in the advance. Corn and oats fol-
lowed wheat making advances of Ac each.
Provisions were weak and lost 5G10c. IN
wheat Liverpool opened only a to I'D lower
than it closed the day before, notwithstand
ing the 1850 drop here. Because Of such
relative frmness abroad, the market here
opened firm at SOS to SO1a for May, or at
from 4 to sc above the point it closed at
Monday. AS. however, the Northwestern re-
ceipts gave indications Of increasing, the
foreign news was not found sufficient to main
tain the advance against the vigorous selling
with which 1t was Immediately attacked. May
yielded slowly but surely ntil it reached soc,
and then dropped another quarter to 1880,
in about half a minute, the lowest price it
has sold at for some time. That was the
turning point however, for the first sell
ing furry ceased, the news of the day began
to have its effect and the price recovered
cent almost as fast as it had gone the other
way.
One Of the strong features was an Argentine
cable from the representative of the Deer
ing Harvester Co, in Argentine, who report
ed that the crop there was failure, and that
the export surplus would not exceed 1000, 900
bu, and would probably not be more than
5000 eco bu. Another encouraging factor was
the sale Of 100000 blu of cash wheat here
for prompt shipment to the seaboard by rail,
as well as the repetition of crop damage news
from Europe. This was influential enough
to put the price up to S1Bc by II 80 O'Clock.
There was some reaction after that, but in
the main prices were fairly held to the close
Of the session. May finally sold to S07sc
and closed at that figure
Corn firm, but dull, the strength coming
principally from the advance in wheat. The
seabOard clearances were again liberal, amount
TO 1926 100 blu. The only bearish item was
the local receipts, which were 395 cars, but
are expected to be light tomorrow. Nav
opened &c hi"ho- 2tosc and advanced to
4174c, Di6sIng steady at that price. The open
ing IN oats was firm, and the feeling through
OUT the session was indicative OF strength.
In1s feeling was mainly in sympathy with
wheat, yet good short buying assisted ma
terlally in advancing prices. May opened
Wnere 1t closed: The action of provisions
rather disguised the bulls. The demand
winch was CHARACTERISTIC of yesterdays mar

Discussed mt n Conference of Pro-
ducers in Florida.

OCALA, Fla, Jan. 12-The first
meeting Of the National Tobacco Grow
ers and Dealers association was called
to order this afternoon by Frank A
league, president Of the Ocala board

present from Wisconsin, Tennessee,
Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York, Mary
land, Connecticut, Indiana, Kentucky,
Georgia and Mississippi. Other states
will also be represented, as we'll as
some of the West Indies.
Some discussion arose tonight over
the clause in the report of the COM
mittee on programme in regard to dis
cussion Of the question Of tariff legis-
lation. A motion was made to strike
out the portion of the report and it
was generally discussed. The motion
lost by a large majority, and Mr.. Cory
opened the discussion advocating q
higher tariff upon leaf tobacco. He
claimed that the revenue officers were
not sufficiently vigilant, and the gov
eminent practically made a gift to the
cigar manufacturers of Tampa and
Key West of about $1,000000.
