EXCITED SESSION
IN GRAIN MARKET
Wheat Prices Shoot Up, Only
to Collapse on Adverse Re-
port From Winnipeg.

Chicago. April 2S.-Excited trading
and general higher prices were brought
about In the wheat market today
largely as a consequence of Washing

pointed to increasing need of rushing
food supplies to the entente allies
There was a scarcity of offerings
The rise in values at Winnipeg was
even greater than here and counted
as q bullish factor. Opening prices,
which ranged from ~ to 12hc higher
with May at s2.74 to s275 and July
at s2.29 to s236, were followed by de-
cided further geins for May and
September, the latter month ascending
for the first time to s2.00.
Unexpected announcement at Winni-
peg. that no buying of Winnipeg wheat
futures had been done for the Brit
ish government or it's allies during
the last 40 cent advance and that
sufficient amounts had been bought
for present requirements, led after
ward to the sudden break in prices
tere. The market fell an extreme OF
151ac to s2.20h for July. The close
was demoralized ranging from 2ac
net lower to 7c advance with May at
1914 to $2.741A and July at S225 t.

Corn was goverened entirely by the
bullish action of wheat. Sellers were
scarce. After opening q to 1s4 &c high
