CHICAGO, Jan. 15.-Wheat today closed az
an advance of about 1kc for May. Trading
was almost altogether of a scalping character
and the firmness was the result of an unex-
pected advance at Liverpool. Other markets
were dull and heavy, corn and oats closing
about sc lower each. and provisions lost 213
6D712c Wheat at the opening surprising
~ strong when Contrasted with the weak
feeling that prevailed at the close yesterday.
First transactions were at from 90$s@
9O15c, against 9CG90Ac the previous afternoon,
and in about half an hour it was able to be
sold for a second or two at 90Ac. Calls for
the day had been sold at 901%c. but it was
said most of those privileges had been bought
up by people who were short a safeguard
against the possible eccentricities OF
rattle a market. The Liverpool market closed
from Esd to sd higher than it did yesterday.
This was somewhat of a surprise to traders.
many of whom had sold short yesterday in
anticipation of a decline here today, and
caused considerable covering. Beerbohm's
estimated that the worlds shipments for the
week would be found Monday to be about
5000, coo Blu. The Minneapolis and Duluth re-
ceipts were 1893 cars, against 357 the CORE
spending day CT the previous week. and 29i
a year ago. Chicago receipts were 35 cars. 10
of which were of contract quality. The clos
ing Continental cables showed some recovery
from the previous days heavy decline, and
that tended to strengthen the bulls. Paris
showed a rise OF 60 confines in January flour,
and 60 centimes in March-June, besides So
centimes in January wheat. and centimes in
. wheat for the March-June term The eX-
ports for the Gay were moderate at 800 900 bu
Business at no time very heavy. While
the trading still continues to be done chiefly
for May delivery, there is a growing DISPOSE
ton to work clear OF it ard transfer specu-
lative dealings into July, the proportion of
trade in which is growing daily. After the
early advance in Gay to S0Ac, the offerings
somewhat exceeded the demand and the
price sagged to between 902sc and SO1@c, but
got good support at that and closed 9012c bid.
