would be averted led to higher prices for

Corn gained nc to | Nc, oats Nc to 1c

Aside OF a little sinking spell at the out
set and another weak spot Just before mid.
day, the wheat market showed con-
tinuous gain. Houses with eastern connec-
tions were the chief buyers. and It was said
that one Arm alone purchased 5000, 900
bushels. Almost from the outset tho as
sumption was general that the railway
strike outlook was less ominous and as the
day wore on II was more and more evident
that optimism In regard to favorable out
come OF the strike conference had become
pronounced. Meanwhile bullish crop re-
ports from southwestern Kansas acted as
decided handicap on the bears. Accord
wheat In that section had not terminated at
all, and much that did terminate was dead.

twcnty-four hours amounted to 1900 900
bushels helped to LIT the wheat market

In the and. however. trade consisted for
the most part OF evening up transactions by
shorts who were eager to anticipate pos
sible harmonious outcome Of the difficulty

Corn rose with wheat. Lightness OF re-
ceipts tended to prevent any sharp setback.
Oats displayed no independence Of other
cereals. Sales OF 100000 bushels Of oats
for shipment at the opening of lake naviga-
tion were made, total Of 775,ooo bushels
