T@day'@ Market Quotations
WHEAT ADVANCES
ON LIGHT START
,iter Weak Opening Prices Rallied
and Good Gains Were Record.
ed in General.

chicago. Jan. 25.--Wheat rallied to-
,.v after a weak start and went 10 the
highest price yet this season. Cable
s,snatches which were construed as
,nIl;sh led TO free selling at first, but
N. buying on the break proved I'M
rsuallv active and the market made a
o,ick rebound. Prospective larger
sh;nments from Argentina and Aus
,ralia formed only a temporary check
IN the bulls. Opening prices, which
,ansed from 4 to 11sc lower, with
Nav at 1.3SG1.331a, and July at 1.24l5
61s4A. were followed by a further
decline and then an upturn to we'll
above Yesterdays finish for May.
subsequently, fresh export buying
and the chances that the blizzard pre-
vsiling In the northwest would cut
down receipts led to further advance
IN prices here. Fears were expressed
that cold weather would catch the
crop in the southwest unprepared.
The close was firm, at B91 to 2A@
asc higher with May, 1.3691361s and
July at 1.261561265s.
Corn reflected the action of wheat,
Trade was relatively light. After
opening Is to 1a@9sc down and sag
ging a little more, the market scored
a complete recovery.
orvs,y lie
later against the bears. The close was
steady at Il to sc net advance.
Oats showed comparative firmness.
Changes were narrow.
Higher prices on hogs lifted provis-
ions. Most of the business, however
was in small lots.

Seven years ago Frank Wheeler,
stone mason, bought on credit l6O
acres of poor land Il miles from
Cushing, Okla, to make a home for
himself and wife and nine children,
eight of whom were girls. BY hard
work he might have made living on
the farm, but he gave only part OF
his time to farming, depending large
ly on small jobs at building for his
cash income. Times were hard there
In those days. Wheeler was desperate
ly poor, and the merchants would not
sell him a dollars worth of grocer
les on credit, so he had hard battle
with starvation. But Frank Wheelock
was not one of the many whom the
gods seem TO frown upon always. One
night three years ago, man knocked
at Wheeler's door and asked for
lodging and the farmer-stone-mason
took him in. The stranger was can
vssing the neighborhood for oil leases
and came upon Wheeler's home by
accident. What happened later meant
much to Cushing and Wheeler ana
to many others of that locality. The
particulars are furnished by the Lit
erary Digest.
The traveller was Thomas d. Slick.
he was known in the oil country far.
tner to the east as Mad Tom Slick
because he would not. listen to ad
wise, and had habit of drilling a hole
IN the most unpromising places when
ever he could raise enough money 10
DO so.
When Slick drove away from
Hneeler's place next morning he had
an oil lease on it. and if ever oil
could be found there Wheeler would
get one-eighth of its value, but the
cnance that even a we'll would ever
De drilled there seemed remote.
Slick went to Gushing, called Il
meeting Of the business men and laiG
us proposition before them. He told
hem Of the indications he had found
~ the Tiger well and that he be-
aefed there was a pool of oil under
"e Wheeler farm. He asked them to
Isise $4,000 for the we'll, and in re-
urn he would give them one-half in
'sfest in all his leases.
The business men listened TO him
and declined.
u chicago lived c. B. Schaffer,
.eh who had made millions in oil in
s pennsylvania fields in the old days.
ne borrowed 500 and went to Chi
20 and laid his plan before Schaffer.

STEEL TRADING
IS MOST ACTIVE
Turnover Made by Feature Stock Was
Greater Than Combined Deals
I'm Other Issues.

New York, Jan. 25.-Trading in
steel during the first hour of stock ex-
change today was larger than the
combined output in all other active is
sues, approximating $4,000 shares.
Steels rise was met by some profit
taking, the stock reacting a substan-
tai fraction, with heaviness in such
specialties as Industrial Alcohol, Bald
win Locomotive, the oils and a few
isolated issues. Later fresh buying
of Steel, the Pacific and other repre-
sentative stocks impaired renewed
strength to the general list but deal
ings fell away to nominal proper
tons. At midday the market was
stagnant.
Bonds were steady.
The significant feature of today's
early trading on the stock exchange
was the strength and activity of Unit
ed States Steel, whose directors meet
after the close Of today's session. Steel
opened with a block of 1000 shares
at S4S, as against yesterdays closing
price of S312, as against yesterdays
closing price of S315. This was fol-
lower by numerous other lots of 1000
to 1000 shares up to So.
There were gains in specialties and
war issues, while Baltimore and Ohio
and New York Central were substan-
TALLY higher These advances were
counterbalanced, however, by de-
clines in Fries, Southern railway pre-
ferred and oils. Industrial Alcohol,
after advancing points, fell back s.
