Wheat Prices Break All Records
for Seventeen Years in Chicago

Chicago, Feb. 2.-After day of SEN
sational advances which started at the
opening, May wheat closed today at
$l.65 per bushel, July wheat closed at
$143 per bushel. These were the high
est prices reached during the day.
Prices broke all records in the local
pit in II years. The price of $l.60 per
bushel to which James A. Patten Is fam
GUS corner forced wheat in 1909, was
exceeded by nalf a cent per bushel
within an hour after the market open
ed. 1t was within 241a cents of the
price reached in 1898, when Joe Letter
cornered the market and sent the grain
price to $l.S5 per bushel.
The price today at 1880 a. m. for
May wheat was $l.6O1a per bushel
Only four other times since the civil
war, when wheat sold here for $2.S5 per
bushel, and in New York for So, mas

The sensational advance continued
and at 12:45 May wheat was selling al
$1.63 3.S and July at $1.42 1-S.
Even the high mark set during the
morning was exceeded at 1890, when
May wheat went to $l.62 8 and July
wheat to $1.4l 1-S.
At p. m. May wheat had reached
$l.63 5-S; July was $l.4 rs.
May wheat closed at $l.65.

conditions and not of speculation. The

trade said today that prices were not
at all abortive in view of the enormous
demand being made on the United
States by foreign governments. Re-
ports today that one of the British
merchant ships sunk by German sub
marine in the Irish sea carried heavy
tonnage of wheat was an important
factor today in making the market very
irregular.
Many such losses, it was declared,
soon would help in exhausting complete
ly the present crop and make it neces
sary to fall back on the new crop. Still
another factor in the increase Of prices
was today's increase Of two shillings
in freight rates on grains from Ar.
gentine to Liverpool. The removal Of
import duties on wheat by Italy and
Sweden, too, was still having its effect.
Still another of the factors which tend
ed toward higher prices was lack Of
news from Canada, weather conditions
having broken down wire communica-
tions.
BY the time communication is rest0r-
ed, Canadian buyers may be desperate
ly in need Of wheat. Coupled with to.
day 5 wheat rise, flour took tne expect
ed jump Of 20 cents ON every barrel,
and bakers almost generally throughout
Chicago raised bread prices from 5 and
10 cents a loaf to and l2 cents loaf.
The bakers said that by the end of
this week rolls which heretofore have
sold at 10 cents per dozen will be raised
to IL cents per dozen.
