CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Heavy Buying by Houses with Eastern Con.
nectinns Sends Wheat LnMnrd

Chicago, Feb. 1o-Wheat prices ran W
swiftly today. Influenced TO large extent
by reports that the British government had
Communicated numerous South American
Line steamships and would undertake TO con
voy from United States ports to Europe as
many cargoes Of foodstuffs might b.
required. After an extreme advance of b&t

Broadening out of wheat trade was espe'
cially notable In the last hour, when tht
prospects of a revival OF export business
looked better than had been the Gaze any
time before IN over week. Right from th'
outset, however. the market was on the up
grade. and there was active buying on the
part of houses with seaboard connections
Predictions were circulated that a decided

current of a big merchant fleet that th'
entente allies had assembled off the Wiz
ginia Capes. Highest prices OF the session
though, were not attained until word cam,
that Great Britain was bringing north virtu
ally all the available freight vessels in thu
Atlantic from below the equator.
Crop damage complaints from the south
west tended throughout the day to handicap
the wheat bears. On the other hand, SOM
holders were uneasy In regard TO the un
holiday and were inclined to make realizing
sales, but such offerings failed TO become
plentiful enough to alter the bullish posi-
ton.
Lightness Of offerings had a buiIIsh etfec
on corn. II was said country owners dis
played signs Of growing belief that eY
port demand shortly would be much en-
iaryed. Seaboard clearances for the da,
were Immense, about 1850 900 bushel Is
Strength of oats was due TO a considersbI

The future wheat situation was strong
today and the rise In wheat was followed
| by good gains in corn and oats. There was
| practically 10 important news on wheat ex-
cept the political situation, but 1t had little
! effect on today's market. the bulge today
| being more the result of short covering.
The Argentine crop situation was the
governing factor In corn and was regarded
as very bullish.
Oats made comparative gains with wheat
