many disappointed brokers around the
wheat pit to-day. All visions Of a
heavy speculative trade ut the ex-
| pense Of Chicago whose quotations
and replaced by New York prices,
vanished. Instead of clamorous actlv-
ity there was holiday dizziness most Of
the session. so profound at times that
messenger boys nodded and pit traders
sat around the ring edge In fantastic
attitudes waiting for the country to
appreciate Chicagos bad form and ex-
clusiveness and send their orders to
New York. But somehow the public

corn quotations were received from
Chicago, while n couple Of million
bushels would cover the morning tram
