WHEAT IS STILL
 GOING HIGHER
Shorts Are ActivesBiddors Cur-
 ing Entire Day
HIGH RECORD FOR SEASON
Upturn In Wheat Has Little Effect Upon the Corn Market, Which Is Inclined to Be Weak-Oats
 and Provisions Steady.

Chicago, February 11.-Wheat for May delivery sold here today at $1.13 per bushel the highest point touched since the famous Gates deal in 1905. All of the advance was held and the mar ket closed strong at the top at net gains for the day of & o ssc to 1Ac.
 Corn closed easy. Oats and pro- visions closed steady.
 Prodded on by additional purchases by leading bulls numerous small shorts were active bidders for May wheat throughout the entire day resulting in the price of that option advancing to the highest point recorded in more than three years. Offerings in the pit, how ever. were light the greater part of the session owing to the congested con- dition of the market, and consequent ly the total volume of business was not large. The market opened amid con siderable bullish enthusiasm with the May delivery 70 ssc above the highest point of the previous session, which was also the high record for the sea son, initial quotations on May being $112Q1.12R. The opening bulge was due largely to an advance of A O 5s in the price of wheat at Liverpool. The more distant deliveries also opened at moderate advances. With the excep tion of the September delivery prices during the day did not fall below the opening level, demand being sufficiently brisk to absorb all offerings at firm prices. The bulls were aided in their campaign by the continuation of an unusually lively demand by millers for cash wheat in this country. A fresh burst of bullish enthusiasm in the final half hour carried May up to $1.13, where 1t rested at the close. July sold between $1.oo5s Q1.01A and closed at s1.01 Is Q1.01A.
 The bulge in wheat had no effect on the corn market which was inclined to be weak. At the close prices were hc to A O ss higher than the pre- vious close. Final quotations on May were 64ssc and July 63%c. Profit-tak ing by local longs had weak ening effect on the oats market but prices held fairly steady throughout the day. At the close prices were a shade lower to h @ Ac higher with May at 53 S @ 53Ac and July at,47% &47Ac.
 Despite selling by local packers provisions held fairly well all day on covering by shorts who were actuated by decreased receipts of live hogs. The close was steady with prices Q5c higher than yesterdays close
 Cash quotations ranged as follows:

COTTON MARKET
 SLOWLY DROPPING Buying Orders Prevent Rapid
 Decline In Prices NET LOSS FOR THE DAY Demand Checks the Early Downward Trend and Prices Advance, But
 Liquidation Near the Close
 Cuts Down the Figures.
NET LOSS FOR THE DAY

New York, February 11.-Eyentss of one kind or another have forced prices down ward, but on every decline the market has encountered buying orders, which have acted as a sort of automatic support. These are accounted for largely by re- ports of dry weather, both east and west of the Mississippi. Spinners takings have been increasing and once more visible supplies of all kinds of cotton have begun to decrease more rapidly after a brief lull than a year ago. Some of the dry goods reports. too, have been rather more cheerful.
 A sharp falling off in the crop move ment is predicted by some for the near future.
 The market me. with quite a good deal of support today, but continued nervous and unsettled, with the close barely steady at a net decline of to points. Sales were estimated at 150,0O0 bales.
 The market opened steady at a decline of 1 to points, with the active months selling to points net lower right after the call owing to disappointing cables, liquidation and local bear pressure. At the decline to g. .40c for July and 27c for October there was active buying, both for the account of some of the large spot houses and through commission houses. The demand checked the downward ten- 0ency and during the middle of the day prices sold 1 to 5 points net higher, with late months relatively firm. Buying orders W ere withdrawn on the advance, now ever, and later the market was again weakened, owing to talk of shipments March contracts, liquidation by early buy CTS and a renewal of local bear pressure, The close was at very nearly the lowest of the day.
 Southern spot markets officially report ed early were generally unchanged to 1sc lower The report of the National Gin ners' association that 12,Sl4000 bales had been ginned to February 6, and that no cotton remained to be ginned except in few counties of Mississippi, -.rkansas, Texas and Oklahoma, together with con tinued dry weather in the southwest may have helped the rally after the opening, but did not figure largely in the market. The New ork market will be closed to- morrow reopening for business on Sat urday, but Liverpool and New Orleans will be opened tomorrow as usual.
 Receipts at the ports today 20,0T3 bales, against 36,O03 last week and 26, 159 last year. For the week 225, 900, against 251, 633 last week and 77,752 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans 6554 bales, against SS22 last year. and at Houston 10, 4S0 bales, against 6659 last year.

MORE STRENGTH
 IN STOCK MARKET Better Tone In Foreign Mar ketS Is Cause of Activity THE ADVANCE IS LIMITED Low Grade Bonds Become More Mo- ticed In the Trading, But Activity
 ReIaxes Early and Close
 Is Barely Steady.
THE ADVANCE IS LIMITED

New York, February 1.-The dull strength in today's market was ascribed in large part to foreign influences and was an echo or the rout undergone by the bear element in the speculation on the London stock market. The situation abroad has been cleared up greatly by the international political adjustments which have been going on. end which re- move a weight of apprehension that has rested on the financial markets for many months past. Most of the business was done during the early part of the ses- sion, the activity declining after the Lon- don business hours had passed.
 Some part of the buying here was sup posed to be prompted by the action of the California legislature in reconsdering and defeating the Dill to segregate Japanese children in the public schools, although the discussion of our Japanese relations had lost it's influence as a stock mar ket influence for several days.
 The admission of directors represent ing the new control to the Chesapeake and Ohio board was made the occasfon for another demonstration of strength III that stock. The whole of the southern group of railroad stocks was marked up briskly with special explanation mere was a noticeable selection of low grade of bonds also for active market move- ments, especially amongst those Whlcn' have been deposited with protective com lnittees in the course of reorganization plans. Sterling exchange was inclined 10 move upward in spite of the buying of statistics here for London account.
 January exports of domestic produce fell s5oOQOOOO in value below the Jan uary exports of last year, but that month last year marked an absolute record in merchandise abroad for the purpose of procuring gold to relieve the after-panic money conditions in New York. The stock market sank back into lethargy in the late dealings, and the days changes proved trival in most cases. Bonds vert firm Total sales, par value, S,63O,OOO.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter.

New York, February n-(Special.)-As the weakness of yesterday was attributed to the liquidation by the largest holders, Liverpool opened sharply lower but rallied just before the close. On this rally abroad our market reacted to meet con- tnued selling, which was attributed, right ly or wrongly, to the same source. This supply closed the market at the lowest price. Investment buying of the new crop absorbed the liquidation Southern advices report little or no demand for spots even at the concession from the high point On the other hand spinners in Lancashire called cotton today on basis of 5d, and the cables say they are expected to buy more that basis.
