above the low price OF last Monday.
1t was 4 certainty that strong
bulge would take place in the wheat
market ut the opening. Country or
ders had bceu poured in seemingly in
an endless stream. and in obedience to
them brokers stood ready to buy mil
lions of bushels at the market, Shorts
were in a highly nervous condition ana
were eager to cover. The result was
that as soon a $ the gong sounded there
was a terrific roar. of voices all anN-
