Wheat-There has been a continued
underlying feeling Of strength in the
wheat market, with advances going
forward in a somewhat nervous and
cratic market, but with a consistent
upward trend. The improvement in
the shipping situation is indicated by
the fact that one cargo has already
been cleared during the present week,
while two steamships are loading for
immediate dispatch. This gives an
element of stability to the export sit
uation, and club is up &c to orc, with
forty-fold csc, and red Russian, 96c.
With bluestem, however, the market
is governed entirely by special re-
! quirements, and, while it would not
be accepted at $1.10 for export, mills
having special offers to fill might pay
up as high as $1.25 for small lots, hold
ers failing to offer under present con-
ditions.
Despit the present movement, there
is a decided element of uncertainty
involved in the situation, with no as
surance of sustained demands from
abroad, and the situation being COM
plicated by possibilities of seizure,
which have not yet been tested out,
while the holding back for higher
prices adds to the uncertainty of the
situation. Local wheat receipts for
last week were 1877. cars, and for the
month of August the total mounted up
to 1927 cars, as compared with 1850
cars for Portland and $50 cars for Sc
attic, record total for the month.
Flour-There have been two ad.
vances in patents, which are now job
bling at $500, during the week Elk
port is up to 1925 for club straights
and $40 for cutoffs, with no definite
basis of values owing to rapid rise in
wheat prices.
