CHICAGO WHEAT MARKET.

Chicago, August 9.--Wheat market
ruled firm today owing to the many en-
couraging advices from abroad and the
prices during the early part of the ses-
sion advanced LEO per bushel over last
night. Liverpool reported their market
as firm, e3-Sd. higher.
Holders confident. Continental mar
kets were generally firm. Receipts at
Chicago and the northwest were a69 cars
against 955 cars last week and 1917 oars
last year. Clearances from Atlantic sea-
board 10000 bushels wheat and flour.
Receipts at primary points 543. O03 bushels
against 723. 900 last week and 5l1. 900 last
year There was good demand for cash
wheat by local millsrs and better in
quiry for export here and at the ssabosrd.
Weather in the northwest was not favor
able being too wet In Minnesota. Trade
was fairly large all day and shorts were
good buyers. Receipts arc likely to CON-
tinue light until northwest spring; crop
wheat begins to arrive aud that will not
he for some weeks In meantime foreign
demand is likely to increase and especial
ly II our markets hold nrm. Country
offerings light. Estimated receipts to-
morrow 76 cars
For the present we think wheat pur-
chase on all weak spots but would take
profits on moderate advances.
