CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Features of the Trading and Closing
Prices on board of Trade.

CHICAGO. Dec. SO-Prospects that the
Suez canal would become part of the
war zone had much TO do today with
causing higher prices in the wheat mar
ket here. The close was bouyant at l%c
to 29sQD21c net advance, with May N.NA
and July sl.1Shs. Other leading staples
too, all showed gains--corn, Bqlci oats,
NC TO st@1tc and provisions 22zscq66c;
Wheat traders In general assumed that
as a result OF the increasing war risk
which had caused the trebling of insur-
ance rates on vessels routed by way of
Suez any active competition from Aus
tralia or India would be largely shut
off. The outcome was an immediate adj
vance in prices here. Reports that the
Canadian government had been selling
setbacks. but denials followed, and the
market developed greater strength than
before and specially when word came
that cargo quotations at Liverpool had
gone sharply higher.
Decreased receipts in the American
northwest cut considerable figure In
spreading bullish sentiment as to wheat.
Despite liberal selling on account OF
favorable weather corn rose with wheat.
Receipts We're disappointing to the bears.
oats hardened with other grain. II was
said there would be liberal movement
of oats from here as soon as the embargo
against shipments to the seaboard was
removed.
buying on the part of grain houses. A
substantial upturn in the price of hogs
gave decided help in lifting provisions.
