End Flour Goes Up in Sym

Chicago. July 1i.-Wheat for July
delivery, advanced seven cents dur
ing stormy session on the board OF
trade today, establishing a new high
record mark for the season and Civ
ing promise of a repetition of the re-
cent deal headed by James A. Pat
ten and his colleagues in the May OPP
ton The top mark reached by the
Jrly delivery today was $1,27 COM
pared with $i20, the closing figure
of the previous day.
The immediate cause of the buying
furry which resulted in the sensa-
uonal advance. was additional rain

souri,, where the new crop of wheat
Is now being harvested or is await
ing the visit Of the throsher and dis
patches from other harvesting and
wheat shipping sections of the coun-
try telling of damage TO the new crop
by excessive rains.
The official forecast for tomorrow
for the principal wheat growing states
in this country, predicts additional
thunderstorms over wide area
throughout the central and western
states
4 large Sleeping short interest
has existed for some time IN the July
option and the action OF the market
Indicated that many of these trad
ers had wahened TO the serious as
pect of the situation.
Leading warehouse men and pro-
fossional traders are said to he the
principal supports. The elevator
men weeks ago bought wheat in the
fields in Kansas, oklahoma and other
winter wheat states aud ''hedSed
against their country purchases by
selling July interosts market. Since
that time wet weather had interfercd
with the threshing operations and
thus prevented quick delivery of the
new crop in Chicago and the south
western markets.
There is practically no wheat suit
able for July in contracts IN this city
at the present time and what little
there is belongs to the Patten inter-
eats
The leader of this clique succeeded
in merchandising the grain delivered
to him during the closing days of the
May corner and he now demands the
wheat sold to him for this months
delivery.
When shorts went to him early In
the day with offers of settlement. 1t
is claimed they were told to buy the
grain In the pit. The attempt to carry
out this line Of action, was the cause
of the seven cent bulge.
Twice during the day, the pit was
thrown into turmoil, first when rive
cents was added to the price of the
July delivery during the first half
hour trading and again near the
close when two more points were
added to the total
Demand was so fierce at the start
that the police between sales jumped
Lie to 1c at a leap. Wild shout
arose when the price touched Sl.2o
and predictions were freely made that

end Of the month. The market closed
with almost the top final quotations
on July being recorded at $l26 $50
