GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

DETROIT, Feb s.--Close: Wheat in
the Detroit market started with a
jump OF cent on Friday morning.
much TO the surprise OF bull ana Dear
eliks for the tone and outlook at the
close on Thursday were anything but
encouraging to those looking Tor
higher prices. Strength in Liverpool
was tie cause OF the upturn here.
The foreign strength was partly due
30 small exports for the week. The
Argentina movement was very light
nj 80 were exports from India, but
Australia sent afioat a fair quantity
Russia ~ not exporting much and the
prospect is that the total for the week
will b. small. There Is much disap-
pointmsnt over the slowness OF the Ar
centina movement but advices are
that exports from there will soon show
heavy Increase.
some OF the strength In wheat is
coming from the corn situation. The
long stretch OF cold weather has re-
shifted in heavy demand for feed and
dealers are having great trouble sup
plying the wants OF their customers
The northwestern wheat movement Is
larger than expected ard consumption
Is small stocks in this country are
not decreasing fast enough TO help the
bill very much Mfilers say the dour
situation IL discouraging.
The strength in Liverpool WIS cred
tied TO a spread OF tho strike OF trans
portation workers In Argentina. The
