PRICE WENT
UP A SHADE
Wheat Market Closed a Little
Higher.
PROVISIONS WERE FIRM
Continued Demand Caused
Wheat to Go Up.

| Chicago, Jan A.-The bulls held the
| reins in the grain pit today and the mar
| kets were strong and active. May wheat
closing PC higher; May corn was UP lsg
&c and oats were 1zG4sc higher. Provi-
sions closed firm, May pork being nc
| higher; May lard unchanged and ribs a
| shade lower.
Wheat ruled strong and active with the
| chief incentive to higher prices being
the continued demand for May by the
most prominent bulls, although higher
cables and small receipts were strength
ening influences early in the day. The
leading long was reported 10 have added
materially TO his alreauy big line and this
fact acted as 4 dampener on the sellers,
and in consequence offerings were rather
| limited. There was good cash demand
reported from the northwest and the sea-
board was again an active buyer. May
opened 4 shade to sale higher at 76i4c
to 755sc sold up to &c and closed &c
higher at 767s@77c.
CIearances of wheat and -four were
equal to Ss4 900 bushels. Primary receipts
were $4,000 bushels against $500 bushels
ported receipts of 261 cars, which with
local receipts OF y cars. none of contract
grade. made total receipts for the three
points of 2SS cars, against 4o5 cars last
week and 439 cars a year ago.
There was q good trade in corn and
the sentiment was generally bullish on a
big export demand and heavy cash bus
iress here. sales being reported at over
200. 900 bushels. The opening was strong
on higher ca bles and small receipts and
the market held firm on a good general
demand for futures from commission
houses. while shorts covered freely in the
January delivery. Offerings OF January
stuff were hard to get and more strength
was manifested in that month than in the
more distant futures. the price going up
20 4Sac, after opening 1,c TO Nc higher at
412sc TO. 4se.c. The close was i2c higher
at i77.c. May closed hQAc higher at
4isGSsc. after ranging between 44lsc and
44iac. Local receipts were 1s4 cars, none
of which were of contract grade.
Oats were given open support by longs
and an active and higher market resulted.
Commission houses were also good buyers
and there was some covering by shorts.
The selling was chiefly by the way of
liquidation. Small receipts and a firm
cash demand were bull factors. The close
was strong with May 1eq4.c higher at
36l1c. after selling between 347.c and 35&sc.
Local receipts were 104 cars.
Provisions We're dull and the opening
was weak on liberal receipts of hogs and
lower prices at the yards. There was a
rally on the strength in grains and on
active demand from brokers for January
pork and most OF the early loss w.s re-
gained The close was steady TO firm
with May pork nc higher al sl6S5; May
lard closed at 50. Az. while ribs We're a
shade lower at sS.95. Estimated receipts
for tomorrow: Wheat. 20 cars; corn, 275
cars: oats. 155 cars: hogs. 5000 head.
