OMAHA Sept u. 1914
An enormous increase for the week IN
tho visible supply OF wheat, both In this
country and Canada, was shown yestcr-
day and the trade was somewhat taken
aback A total Increase OF i.lG9, 000
bushels for North America caused large
QuGntity OF wheat TO be dumped upon the
market yesterday and broke prices
sharply from the high points. The move
meht OF wheat promises TO let down, how
ever according TO all Indications in fact,
receipts at primary markets yesterday
were materially lighter than for the cor
responding day last week. Farmers are
lnclined TO hold for better prices and the
showery weather that prevailed in sec
items OF the northwest yesterday IL not
conducive To free marketing. However
wheat stocks at Minneapolis already show
an increase OF 100000 bushels since Fri
day last, compared with an increase OF
'S1oVo bushels for the corresponding
period last year
The wheat market mere yesterday was
a nervous affair, featured by rapid price
fluctuation. Resting spots for the active
futures wero i4c higher than Saturday.
tlnal, while the September delivery closed
NC better There was good buying early
based largely on the theory that the war
gave every indication Of lasting for a
prolonged period, and this was further
stimulated by the strong spot wheat
situation at Liverpool
torsigners were good buyers OF cash
wheat yesterday and export sales from
mere were reported az 10000 bushels,
while 10000 bushels went out via the
gulf and some business was reported
done at the eastern seaboard Local
milling sales were around 5000 bushels
southwest sales of flour for export were
reported as liberal but news from the
northwest was more conservative and II
was stated that several OF the Minneapolis
mlIls would close down in the near future.
Ihere was much irregularity in price
movements Tor corn here yesterday and
much OF the nervousness in wheat was
rejected in this pit.
Oats trading was active but the same
ieenng or uncertainty was noted here as
IN other pits: Resting spots for the day
were nc higher than Saturday
Lack OF activity in the cash provision
trade caused many OF the longs TO
lquidate their holdings yesterday and
prices ruled sharply lower.
Wheat was 1c to &c lower
Corn was unchanged
Oats were Nc lower
These sales were reported today
