Chicago Record-Herald: Wheat advanced
yesterday mainly because the exporters who
have been talking so bearish for weeks, quail

day they were doing any business, but merely
declared 1t looked as If they might some time
Some of the wheat people last night were try
ing to decide before they went home whether
they had taken the seaboard encouragement
too seriously. Yesterdays seaboard help was
probably merely the little jog that was neces-
sary to start things. There is no pressure on
the market from the west or northwest, and
SO it does not need much help from any other
or any other. to bull. There is the same
situation in corn and oats

Charles E. Lewis company say: Movement
of wheat at country points continues about
same as past week; no change to speak Of.
Receipts here will continue about as at pres
ent, possibly little heavier.
Paris close: Wheat 10 confines lower; flour,
10 centimes up to 10 centimes lower.
s McReynolds to johnson: We cannot see
that the position of wheat has changed very
materially, but there seems to be a firmer
feeling in this cereal. 1t rather looks to us
as though the corn market has been over
sold and temporarily may range higher A
great deal depends upon the cash demand
which in the past has been very slack. There
was, however, some talk of better inquiry
at the seaboard to-day. The cash position of
corn to us look weak, but should demand
arise this would change very quickly.

Depression Results From the Nom
Ful1iIlment of Il Prophecy.
Chicago, Feb. 14-Grains were dull and easy
at the opening to-day. Wheat started shade
to 7s@Ac lower at 1880 to 7S1ac. The big
business at the seaboard which was forecast
did not materialize, and as result there was
some depression. Cables were higher. Ar
genuine shipments were about half what they
were last year. But no attention was paid to
either cables statistics, and light
trade and almost no outside demand, May
declined to 783s@7S1sc Later there was some
covering that helped May back to 1890:
Local receipts were 80 cars. Minneapolis and
