CHICAGO DAILY
MARKET NOTES

Export sales of wheat at the sea-
board were 100000 blu hard wheat to
the Italian government. There We're ex
port orders for oats late In the day
which are expected to be filled today
Sales Of wheat at Chicago were 100000
bu red and hard wheat and 100000 blu
corn at outside points No sales OF
corn or oats for export here.
Cash wheat at Chicago advanced 1@
Sc yesterday, the latter on contract
grades at the close. No. 2 hard and
red on track was 1@1hc over May.
For thirty days shipments bids were
1c over May Spring wheat was 3@6c
higher. In outside winter wheat mar
ket prices were 2@3c higher, following
the futures. Minneapolis was strong
and sc over May for No. northern.
Corn was stronger and A@hc high
err early but lost part Of it. Offerings
were ample for all requirements and
shipping and export business small,
only $4,000 bu here. ST. Louis advanced
h@1kc, Kansas City k@Ac and 9TH
er markets " ole higher.
Oats were generally held higher than
exporters were disposed to pay and
business was light. At Chicago shipping
sales were 100000 blu. Prices here were
kets "a ole higher, with offerings not
large.
1t was the general comment of the
grain trade yesterday that the bread
stuff situation is not one Of price but
of supplies as regards the foreign gov
ernments. They appear to be after all
the wheat there is in the leading export
countries, and are buying it as fast as
it is obtainable.
There has been more than doubling
of values on wheat since last summer.
In fact few operators of today have
ever witnessed an advance Of over
SSAc in wheat values, as has been
war started. The May wheat has be-
come fancy deal, owing to the ex-
haustion Of stocks here and to limited
offerings There was practically no
wheat on the market yesterday and the
price jumped about 1c minute at
times.
With May wheat congested traders
are turning their attention to July,
which was 22c under May and safer to
trade in. The May is regarded as an
evening up market and the price is ex-
pected to be governed by the supply
and demand. The advance to $1.50 in
parts of Oklahoma and Kansas yester-.
day brought out increased offerings
from the farmers.
Corn trade was mixed The bears
said the market showed small re-
Spouse to the furry in wheat, as it adj
vanced &c while wheat jumped SC. Buy
ing yesterday was scattered. The bulls
believe that foreign buying Of corn will
start soon, as wheat will be so high
that they will be afraid to trade in it.

They also expect to see general specu-
lation In corn carry prices much high
er, as wheat at $1.65 and corn at. s3c
seems out Of line. They say it is a war
market and the regular conditions are
lost sight Of.
There is more corn in Chicago now
than there has been IN the visible sup
ply at this time in over twenty years.
The price is also the highest for this
season. But the bulls regard this as
showing that there is plenty Of it for all
the demand that may come. Should
wheat break sharply the trade looks
for recessions in all grains. Many
traders regarded the markets as strain
ed at the close yesterday and advised
taking profits.

BRITISH CAPTURE u. S. SHIP
Claim Kankakee, Seized Off South
American Coast, Is Owned by
German Capital.

Montevideo, Dec. 3.-The American
steamer Kankakee, belonging to the
Transatlantic company, was captured
Oct. 81 by the British auxiliary cruis-
er Macedonia, off the mouth of the
River Platte. The captain and two
members of the crew were held by
the British as witnesses in any pro-
ceedings that might be brought. Six
teen sailors have been landed here in
the care of the American consul.
The reason for the capture of the
Nankakee was the assertion that she
s owned by German capital. This was
the same reason given for the recent
capture of the Argentine steamer Pres
dent Mitre.
