Dec. 20
Wheat-Basing ideas upon the number
OF people seen in retail stores here, 1t
would seem that we are about to expe-
rience a broadening OF demand for com
modlties. This condition seems to be
developing in wheat, there being a mum
Der OF items from the Southwest telling
or improved nour sales and milling de-
mand. 1t was also noticeable that In
diana and Ohio millers were buying
wheat in the Chicago market Further
than this the continuation Of export
business during the holidays Is attracting
considerable attention because II Is out
Of the ordinary. II the milling demand
broadens. Is now indicated, the mar
ket will respond readily as the accumu-
letion now IN sight are thought to be
owned by exporters.
Corn-Foreign demand for corn has
again appeared, st. Louis reporting "a 900
sold. Inquiries were In this market, but
no business closed, or at least none made
public. The foundation OF export de-
mand and the reluctant selling by the
producer, should within n moderate time
induce a broader demand from the dis
tributing trade and result in higher
prices.
Oats--The comparatively small response
TO strength In corn made by oats, Is &C
counted for by the lack OF interest In the
market not by any underlying weakness.
Some adyices are creeping In from the
country TO the extent that reserves or
oats are not as large as commonly ex-
pected.

Yesterday we had market sufricienuy
steady to encourage the markets friends
and attract new ones. II has been the
hest market We have had in some time
with improvement noticeable in every de-
partment. but particularly In the rails,
where we have been favored with an IL
vestncnt demand that promises to con-
tsnue and there is every reason why this
should be so.
The present reaction in business, as
has been stated. is enabling railroad
management TO create efficiency and econ
Omy that will in the end be productive
of more profits.
In the industriaIs, liquidation appears

counted q more serious and 4 more pro
