CHICAGO Feb. 6.-The wheat market was
somewhat erratc and prices covered a wide
range. Prices easy at the opening be-
cause of a decline of more than 1c at Liver
pcol. but offerings were eagerly taken by cash
interests and shorts the shrinking bringing out
a substantial rally. The market then con-
tinued firm until the latter part of the ses-
sion when prices again declined on profit
taking sales. Liberal primary receipts also
softened the market somewhat. Another raj
ly took place in the last few minutes of the
trading the report that 40 boatloads had
been taken at New York for export. A good
demand for cash wheat at several markets in
this country also strengthened values. The
market closed firm. May opened 1s@%c lower

cepts were one of the chief strengthening fea-
lures. The close was firm. May opened "a

by local packers soon caused a reaction The
