Chicago, Sept. 2s.-In accord with. re-
ports of graver prospects Of fighting
at the Dardanelles, wheat showed a de-
cided tendency toward higher prices to-
day during the early dealings. Up
turns in Liverpool quotations. gave fur
ther emphasis to bullish sentiment. The
fact that receipts Of spring wheat In
this country and In Canada are running
about double the totals of a year age
failed to act as an offset to wal talk.
The opening which ranged from u to
4 higher, with December 1.O5h to
1.06A and May 1904 to 1904, was
followed by a slight reaction n then
by a fresh advance.
