the session, opinion being sharply divid-
ed for a while as to whether the extra
ordinary jump in prices on Saturday
would be followed by. still greater
rise or whether reaction would ensue
Possibility Of a huge shortage of wheat
here throughout the approaching period
for the settlement Of May contracts re-
NAMED an acute problem. 1t soon be-
came evident, however, that price up
most daily would for the time being
induce holders to let go of plenty of
wheat to supply all immediate wants
Holiday slowness of exports demand
counted somewhat as a factor in easing
the strain on the wheat mraket, par
ticularly near the end of the day. Talk
Of curtailment of purchasing for domes-
tic millers and OF lack of inquiry for
flour tended further to bring about de-
clines at the last. A good sized decrease
in the United States visible supply was
announced, but the effect on the market
here was more or less offset by some
additions to wheat in store here. and by
shipments to Chicago in prospect at
Omaha and elsewhere.
Corn and oats were ruled by the
action of wheat. Adverse weather con-

means have been tried to overcome this
difficulty and now a pressure pump is
to be installed. This may enable Man

through the formation now reached and
where there is a very favorable show

given all concerned as much encourage

considerable oil in the present sand is
