WHEAT MARKET
TAKES A SWIFT
UPWARD SWING
EJROPE'S BITTER NEED OF
BREAD CAUSES NEW
WAR PRICES
E BUSHEL
OFFERED SOLD
United States Virtually the Only
Big Exporting Nation in the
World.

CHICAGO, Jan. 4.-Europe's bitter
need Of bread resulted today in spec
tacular buying of wheat anu caused
new war prices here In earnest. It
was pointed out, however, that tho
tiptop quotation attained today,
$1.34 ga for May delivery. was still
roundly SO cents a bushel under the
$1.85 force.i here in 1898 by Joseph
Letter during a worldwide peace.
Notwithstanding that wheat today
at n time showed q rise Of 3 ga
cents v e Saturday night. the upturn
apparently had little If any effect on
farmers. Country offerings were de-
cidedly meagre as they have been for
some time past.
Although the prime impetus for
high prices today came from seeming
ly unlimited export demand, the homie
demand was general and especially
SO in the last hour Of the session.
Millers, too, were said to be anxious
buyers, fearing that the :. smendous
export call would leave them short
OF supplies. Roughly, the total salts;
to Europe today in the United States
were estimated at three million bush
els. or this aggregate, 10000 BUSH
els were definitely known to be for
the relief Of the starving people of
Belgium.
Experienced observers failed to
notice eny usual excitement, despite
the swift upward swing Of the mar
ket. The n striking fact was the
steady absorption Of every bushel of
wheat offered fog sale.
Talk among brokers conferred al
most wholly or the iota that for the
time being. the United States was vir-
tually n only big exporting nation
n the world. Nobody seemed to
look for an immediate opening OF the
Dardanelles and It seemed to be tax
en- as a certainty that owing to pro-
hibittve vessel rates, Argentina would
pe maple TO take care even OF con-
tracts already made, especially with
Italy. where embarrassment will be
serious II large amounts expected
prior to March I from Argentina are
not received as bargained for.
