CHICAGO, Sept. 16.-The average
trader in wheat at Chicago, as well
as the markets Of the Northwest and
Southwest, is now figuring or q larger
run Of that grain. This was demon
strated by the liberal sales OF the De.
cember future in the markets of this
country today. The fact that the Sep

raj, as the cash wheat offering vas
grabbed up eagerly by shorts and exi
portcrs and 1t was hurriedly taken OF
the market. With the month Of Sep.
TENDER out of the way, conditions sur
rounding the wheat market will show
a change for the better. 1t will open
a road 10 more liberal speculation and
the price will be governed largely by
the law Of supply and demand.
The wheat market presented a
strong front carly and 1t looked as II.
the day would prove one in favor Of

unsettled and there was some wheat
