WHEAT SCORES
FRESH ADVANCE
New Estimate on Argentine
Surplus Furnishes Basis for
More New High Marks.

CHICAGO, Feb. 25.-wheat opened
Il. to 1 cent lower due to a decline
of LAND in Liverpool and prospects
for more rain n the Southwest. There
was considerable selling by commits
sion houses and local traders at the
start but the offerings were readily
absorbed. a private Argentine cable
estimating the exportable surplus of
the old and new crop at 100000 900
bushels or 100000 bushels less
than recently and suggesting the pos
sibility Of exports being prohibited
around July bringing in free buying
which carried the May up over s1.46
compared with s1.44 at the opening.
On the advance there was some profit
taking by longs but the undertone
was strong. Messages from the South
west indicated smaller receipts, but
the general run Of crop news from
that section was more favorable, al
though as yet Western Kansas and
Oklahoma has received practically no
moisture. Sentiment in wheat is
somewhat more mixed than of late.
