WHEAT MARKET
 IS WITHOUT TOP
Price for July Delivery Goes to
 New High Record
GRAIN IN ACTIVE DEMAND
Trade In Corn Is Dull, Although the Close Is Firm at Net Gains for the Day-oats Close and
 Provisions Strong.

Chicago. April 12.-Wheat prices on the breaking advance today, all deferred fu- lures rising to new high marks for the season, while the May delivery equalled the previous best mark. At the top July sold at $1.16% and September at $1O5. Corn closed firm, oats steady and provi- sions strong.
 It was fierce speculative market in wheat during the greater part of the day, and prices moved over a range of 1 cent to 2ss cents Interest again centered around the more deferred futures and trade in the May delivery was very light. De- spite beneficial rains in the southwc est, sentiment regarding the new crow months was extremely bullish and prices were easily forced more than 1 cent above the previous high point for the season.
 The market opened irregular, with prices Sc higher to ssc lower, compared with Saturdays close, July being $1.14A to $1.15, and September at $1.07MQ1. 071h There was considerable selling based on the wet weather in the winter wheat ter ritory and early in the session July
 
 of the first half hour, however, leading bulls began to buy and prices advanced rapidly. There was also a big investment demand from outsiders. The market was bullishly affected by an active demand for the cash grain, locals sales aggregat- ing 215,000 bushels. The top for July was reached at s1.16% and for September at s1.09 During the day May sold between $1.25ss and s1.26as. Trade quieted down considerably during the final half hour of the session and prices reacted firm at net gains for the day of s to 114Q1ss. with July at s116N and September at $1.0Sss@l .OS5k. May closed at $125A.
 Trade in the corn market was dull and sentiment in the pit was quite heavy at times, although the close was firm at net gains of 1sc to ssc, compared with Sat urday's final quotations. hTe bulke in wheat had a bullish effect. There was some selling at the start, owing to local receipts which were considerably more than had been estimated. May ranged between 6e1sc and 66A@1s1S6sc, and closed at e6%c.
 The feature of trade in the oats pit was neaVy selling or the May oeHVery Dy commission houses in general. The new crop months were in fairly good demand by shorts and country trade/s. The close was somewhat irregular, the May delivery being easy while the new crop months | were firm. May closed at 54ssc 1 Provisions were strong throughout the entire day because of liberal purchases by g. local packer and by one of the lead ing bulls in the wheat pit. The annua | government report relating to animals ] on farms was considered somewhat | bullish. The market was also influenced | by a 5-cent to 10-cent advance in live hogs. At the close prices were 21k@5c tc 171ac higher than Saturdays final quota l tions.

New Orleans April 12.-Spot cotton firm, 1-16c higher; mddling, 95sc. Sales on the spot, 1600 bales; to arrive, 1400.
 Futures opened steady, 4 to 5 points up on the old crop months and 6 to 8 up on the new. This initial rise was entirely due to an accumulation of buy ing orders from outsiders over the holi- days. Statistics for the week just end ed were bearsh and the drouth In Texas was reported broken, rain having fallen recently in 10 counties. In spite of these two features buying was heavy. Leading bulls sought to check the advance be- cause they thought the market was be- ing rushed up too fast. Cotton, they threw overheard, however. was quickly grabbed up and the active months around the middle of the day were 1T to is points up In the old crop, and 20 to 22 up in the new. The market closed steady with the old crops at a net advance of 12 points and the new crops at an ad- vance of 16 to r points.

was improved in sympathy. The statis- tics of surplus cars compiled fornightiy by the American Railway assoclation made a less favorable exhibit of trade conditions. the number of idle freight cars having increased again for the half month ending March s1 to the number of 51s2. This was in spite of reduction of upward of 14.000 in idle coal cars, n wing to the rush to stock up coal in face of a possible miners strike. The falling off in the general merchandise movement and other traffic, therefore. must have been considerable Some or the days reports from the crop regions were disliked in connection with the con tinued firmness of the wheat market The tone of the market developed consid- erable irregularity in the late dealings, but many substantial gains were left for the days showing.
 Bonds were active and strong. Total sales, par value, $, S,250,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call.
