CHICAGO GRAIN.

CHICAGO, September 11.-Sharp up
turns that wet weather caused in the
wheat market today were followed by
a decided reaction due to talk of i'm
ports from Canada. Prices closed heavy
at the same as last night to l higher
with September at 99A, and December
at 95. Corn finished 5sa24 off to IS up,
oats unchanged to y higher and pro-
visions varying from 3 decline to a

Waves. of buying which swept over
the wheat market during the first half
of the session carried prices to the
highest level reached in more than d
fortnight. Predictions of continued
storms over almost the entire domestic
belt were chiefly what stimulated the
rush to the bull side of the market. Ad-
ditional delays to the movement Of the
crop appeared to be certain and to
make increasingly difficult any effort to
accumulate supplies in store. Higher
quotations at Liverpool counted also
against the bears, especially as world
shipments for the week promised to
show a notabl falling off.
In the last half of the day rumors of
tentative ARRANGEMENTS to bring Ca
madam wheat to Minneapolis acted as
a wet blanket on buyers here. The
relative cheapness of the corn product
was said to have tempted millers to
consider carefully the outlook for
bringing liberal quantities across the
border. Speculative sentiment seemed
thereafter to change radically, and
selling became the popular course.
Before the pit was cleared one firm
alone had thrown overheard fully
1000 900 bushels.
Reports of exceptionally plentiful
forage largely outweighed other in
fluences in the corn market This

COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, September 1.-THE cot.
ton market recovered good part OF
yesterdays reaction during today's
early trading, but again encountered
heavy realizing. and prices gradually
eased off, with December selling down
1859 to 1915, and with the general list
closing steady net points lower to 2
points higher.
Relatively firm cables, reports that
the firmer tone of raw material had
the demand for cotton goods
and yarns and the continued firmness
of southern spot markets late yeSter-
day probably accounted for renewal
of active Wall street and commission
tions' of a prominent southwestern
operator that prices would ultimately
sell much higher may also have en-
couraged scattering demand, while In
some quarters there appeared dlspo-
sition to eliminate questions of interna-
tional politics from calculations as to
the course of the market. First prices
were firm at an advance of 10 to II
points, and the active months soon sold
13 to IA points net higher, with october
1917. Buying orders seemed to be
pretty well supplied on this bulge. how
ever, and the market later turned
easier under weekend realizing, Whlch

able weather in the south and the usual
tendency toward reaction after such
advances as the market has experience
ed during the past week.
