CHICAGO, July 19-Renewed buying
strengthened the wheat market in the final
dealings today after II had declined below
yesterdays close, following a stronger start.
There was quite rush Of buying by COM
mission houses in the early dealings, based
on an advance in Liverpool, continued warm
weather in the Northwest and prospects of
light shipments for the week from Aus
tralla and Argentina.
Exports from the latter country were
estimated at not in excess of 100000
bushels 1t is still difficult to get tonnage
everywhere. Profit-taling on a liberal
scale followed with reports regarding
black rust in the Northwest less sensational
Some of the houses that recently were most
active in disseminating the bad news
liquldated
A leading firm in the Northwest declared
that while reports about black rust from
North and South Dakota had caused consid-
erable anxiety, and admitting there may be
ual damage had yet occurred. Other ad-
vices from the spring wheat belt declared
that the outlook for the. yield was excellent
and that the outturn might be S0o,O00,000
bushels.
Omltting Rumanla and Russia, Broomhall
estimated that the total surplus OF other
exporting countries would be 64S,000,000
bushels, against 592,000,000 bushels last
year.
Corn finished higher after receding fol-
lowing an advance at the outset. There
was some good selling pressure, largely on
the new crop, but quite line of December
was picked up, presumably for Eastern
account.
The market at Liverpool was dull but
firm There was talk of reduction in the
area in Argentina. Shipments from that
country for the week were estimated at
only $4,000 bushels.
oats were irregular following firmncss.
July and December ended n little lower,
while September closed unchanged. Ad-
vices regarding the crop in Europe are un-
favorable the result of unseasonably cold
weather.
