CHICAGO. October 24.-Uncertainty
| regarding the railroad strike outlook
had tendency today to prevent any
decided movement of prices in the
wheat market. Sellers were somewhat
| in a majority at the start, but this
condition was later reversed. the view
being more generally taken that bear
! ish factors had been discounted
enough for at least the time being:
Trade as a whole, however, lacked
| volume. Opening quotations. which
varied from unchanged figures to
lower. with December 1.05a1.05h and
May 1.1ok ka1.10k. we're followed by
! a rally to all around above Saturday s
finish and then by something Of
| setback.
Corn and oats fiuctuated in line
with wheat. After opening unchanged,
December 4615 a46s, corn hardened a
little and then underwent a slight sag
Oats started unchanged to Il on,
December 32A, and kept within mar
row limits.
Potatoes-weak: receipts. 159 cars;
on track, 55S: total United States
shipments. 1907: Minnesota and
per handredweight. 1.75a1.S5; Wis
consin and Minnesota sacked white,
t1.65a1.90; bulk, 1.70a1.90; Dakota
white, bulk, l.65a1.S0.
Later the wheat market scored a
material advance. owing more or less
to an unexpected falling off in the
visible supply total and to increased
! talk of the railroad strike being
averted. Prices closed unsettled. 1 IS
to 2A net higher. with december
Lo7S to Los. and May. 1.12% to
1.12k
Smallness of corn receipts counted
subsequently as bullish influence.
The close was nervous, IN to IL
| net higher, with December AN to 49,
