will say:
With the much needed expansion in export
trade now actively in evidence one OF the few
important missing elements OF national nros-
perity has been supplied. Export trade in De-
cember proved to be better than anticipatel

also gains rather than loses in strength While
the regular spring trade can hardly be said to
have opened, activity is steadily increasing
The volume of shipments OF spring goods ,s

utors to obtain possession of goods early Re
tail trade IN winter goods has been maintained
at good volume by the very generally diff
fused lower temperature. In only a few scat

Chicago Grain and Produce.

CHICAGO, Jan. 16.-Thers was an active
trade in wheat and the market at times ex-
perienced considerable excitement. On ac-
count OF considerable liquidation by locals and
outsiders prices maintained higher level, al
though there was slight decline early on
general selling brought on by the rumor that
the leading long was unloading his enormous
holdings. Instead OF disposing OF any long
stuff however, the leader OF the bulls added
still' further to his long line, which fact was
mainly responsible for the strength in the sitU-
alton. May opened lsdhc to sSq15o higher

Transporting facilities have been diverted

passing the customary amount for this time

Quiet conditions in the iron and steel mar
