CHICAGO, Jan. 13.-Wheat-The
wheat market today was typical OF
weekend trading, with evening up the
main feature. The net change for the
day was negligible, Cash news is bull
ish. but the temper Of the local trade
and much Of that outside Is bearish,
because some indefinite political de-
velopment is expected to occur at any
moment to give sharp break. 1t does
not appear, however that there is a
sufficient long interest to warrant
q decided drop in values, especially
since the cash situation has so much
strength in it. While there was no bus
mess to the seaboard published yes
terday. it developed this morning that
both Chicago and st. Louis had sold
wheat to the eastern seaboard yester-
day and that the same interests were
bidding again today. Old crop Chi
cago wheat was reported as selling in
the east at fancy premiums over our
May. There is every indication of
gradually Strengthening cash market.
Corn-Corn was firm throughout the
day and little influenced by the fire.
Quent short setbacks in wheat Buy
AhS ~ SdSll lAtOICSlS dlO SuOItS WAS
the feature. Further export sales are
reporting from Omaha and the persist
ent bids from export sources point to
well sustained demand from abroad.
The selling side on breaks Is too pop
ular and should be avoided.
Oats-Within narrow range oats
were steady. being helped by pur-
chases by cash interests, liberal clear
ances and prospects Of the latter be-
Ing well maintained. There are no
new Developments. but the steady
drain of home consumption and ex-
port loadings cannot continue without
enhancing values.
