CHICAGO. December 49, - Wheat
prices ran upward today after show
ing considerable depression at the
start. Adverse financial and indus
trial conditions were commented on.
but selling orders proved less numer-
Gus than had been expected. and the
ma jority of traders appeared willing
to accept tentatively an opinion that
bearish factors had been more than
discounted for at least the time being.
Strong commission houses led in the IN.
buying which developed. Opening
prices, which ranged from ] to 3
lower. with December 1887 and
March 1.56k to 1.5S. We're followed
by sharp advance to well above
Saturdays finish.
Corn displayed Independent strength
After o1sning u off to q advance
including May at II to 7114, the mar
ket scored material gains all around
Oats were inclined to lag, starting
4 to " lower. May. 40 to 49A. and
easing little more before beginning
to rally.
Provisions went down grade with
hogs.
Export demand counted later as a
sustaining influence, and there was also
active buying of futures on the part
of houses with country connections
Wheat prices closed firm, 2A to 3 y
cents net higher, with December 1853 "a
and March 1.61A to 1852.
Wet weather and buying for elevator
interests helped to uphold corn values
The close was firm. ! to 2h cents net
higher, with May 72A to TN.
