Wheat Gossip.

Chicago, Sept. 14.-Shorts in Liv-
erpool brought on the strength in
American markets yesterday, and
closing prices were n to " higher.
The foreign crop comes regarding
yields of bullish character. France
for instance, being put down as a
probable importer of wheat and con-
tinued rains in England being detri-
mental to the quality of the yield
in that country. Less stress was laid
upon the locust damage in the Ar
gentine.
Continental markets were all high
er except Paris. Market opened
fractionally higher but broke to 98c
on heavy selling by prominent local
elevator interest, who also sold Sep
TENDER and bought the more distant
futures. On the decline there was a
good class of buying by commission
houses. and the larger room traders,
and offerings were quickly absorbed.
Trade was on very liberal scale,
but the demand was not satisfied un-
til December touched 993sc. A good
deal Of wheat was bought on the be-
lief that the northwestern crop had
been overestimated. At the advance,
the northwest wa sa heavy seller and
prices receded 1c from top, closing
a shade over yesterday. Kansas City
reported a big demand for cash No.
2 hard with prices ~ to &c higher,
while st. Louis said cash property
was dragging in tone. During the
past three days a great many shorts
have run to cover and local longs
have added to their lines. Unless
something new develops in the stu
alton we feel that the advance dis
counts present conditions and that a
reaction is in order.
