WHEAT SCORES
BIG ADVANCES
ON DUMA VOTE

CHICAGO, Dec. 16.-Big advances
in the Value of wheat were scored
today with a swiftness equal to that
with which prices of late had dropped.
On wild rush to the buying side, the
market went soaring 10kc bushel
before the rise was checked. General
reversal of, opinion as to the chances
of quick stop to the war formed the
sole reason for the advance. Judg-
ments of the situation seemed to be
largely based on assertions that no
comment or suggestion from the
United States government would go
forward with the German peace pro-
posal to Great Britain and her allies.
The course of the Russian duma in
as decided bullish influence. Open
ing prices, which ranged from 31s to
10kc higher, were followed by many
rapid changes within the initial limits,
and then a comparative pause at about
to &c above yesterdays finish.
First Quotations.
First quotations of May and July
wheat, the pricipal options. were re-
spectively $3.50 to $1.54k and $1.3S to
$1.40.
Corn sympathized with the strength
of wheat. Upturns, however, were
only moderate, and trading not heavy.
After opening IN to 2 7-Sc higher, the
market hardened little further, and
then sagged about 1c.
Oats duplicated the action Of corn.
