GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, Feb. Surprising strength
was manifested in the wheat pit through
out the entire session and at the close
prices were at the top notch of the day.
Despite the bearish tone of weekly sta
tistics the market opened firm and con-
tinued to gain strength as trading pro-
crossed. Worlds shipments for the week
were liberal at l.. S.. 600 bushels, with Rus
STA contributing more than 100000 BUSH
els of that amount The amount on pas
sage increased 6,4s010 bushels and La
Plata offerings of wheat in Liverpool
were reported cheaper. These bearish in
fiGences, however, were apparently ig-
Ecred.
A brisk demand for cash wheat at all
the principal markets in this country and
a decrease Of 3164.000 bushels in the Wis
ibie supply in the United States and Can
ada. compared with decrease of sos 600
bushels for the corresponding week year
ago, were the principal factors response
bic for the buying by shorts and bull
leaders that aused the strong upturn.
The May delivery displayed the great
est strength and ranged between on and
.o9ls. closing at the top point. July closed
at 9Siz.
Light local receipts and limited offer
ings in the pit created bullish sentiment
in the corn market The market closed

High Line.

The Burlington is considering the plan
Of improving its line from Holdrere to
Cheyenne to make the second through
line frpu Omaha to ronpert With the
Northern Pacific at Billings. The line
has been built for 20 years and has .
splendid low grade all the way from
Holdrege west and would make good
road for heavy hauling.
The Burlington has been buying land
in Cheyenne to make connection be-
tween the Burlington and Colorado
Southern. Land within the heart Of
Cheyenne has been bought at consid-
erable expense.
BY using the Holdrege- Cheyenne line
the Burlington would have a route $40
miles long between Omaha and Chey-
enne while the Union Pacific Ia a little
shorter. with $50 miles The Burling-
ton has been making every effort to es-
