Prices on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, Dec. 29.-Because of a cold
wave predicted for exposed winter crop
states and on account of Manitoba export
rumors, wheat today developed decided
strength. The close was firm at the top
prices Of the session, with a net advance
of ic to TAG. Latest sales of corn showed
n gain OF MONO, as compared with last
night; oats a rise Of &c to 9sg1sc, and pro-
visions varying from 21hd5c decline. to an
increased cost OF 71kd10c.
There was big buying of both wheat and
corn by the leading bulls. Primary re-
ceipts were small notably in the north
west, and there was reason for belief that
sales OF cash wheat here were larger than
reported. Talk OF reduced estimates on the
Argentina crop had considerable effect and
80 also did mention of better demand in
European centers. Statements that thirty
boat loads of Manitoba wheat had been
worked for export had n tonic effect. Ad-
ditional buying force came through visions
of possible disaster from a sudden hard
freeze
Purchases from prominent houses took
on large proportions in the last half
of the day made the market almost buoy
ant. The may option ranged from 96k GD963sc
20 8hc, closing lac net higher at 97Ac.
Foreigners were said to be buying corn
here today In consequence OF alleged losses
10 the Argentina crop Prices for local
account reached a huge total, two houses
alone taking more than 100000 bushels.
May fluctuated between 479tc and 4SIko and
closed &c up at 4Sikc. Cash corn did not
follow the upturn in futures. No. yellow
finished at 46d4655c.
Oats made a fair response to the bulge
IN other grain. May sold from S3Ao to
Shc, and In the end was sc net higher
at 34hd34hc.
Provisions were active. but irregular.
When the day ended. pork was left the
same as last night to TIC higher lard up
2igc to 7AQl0c and ribs at 21kG5c decline,
10 nickel advance.

Rates Suspended
Commission Holds Up Advance Pro-
posed by Alton, Illinois Central
and Rock Island Lines.

WASHINGTON, Sept H.-The Interstate
Commerce commission today ordered the
suspension until January s, 1911, OF in
creased tariff schedules filed recently by
the Chicago & Alton Railroad company
the Chicago & Eastern Illinois Railroad
company, the Chicago, Rock Island & Pa
cific railway company. the Illinois Central
Railroad company and other western and
southwestern railways.
hearing on complaints against the pro-
posed tariffs will be held at n time and
place to be fixed by the commission.
The commission ordered the suspension
of the rates for the reason that from a
consideration of the character and amount
of the advances it appeared that there Is
sufficient ground for claiming that the
said advances are unlawful and that the
rates established by the new schedules
are unjust and unreasonable. The increase
involved in the order issued today were
filed within the last month
