 Although the wheat market here open ed or the down grade in sympathy with lower quotations at Liverpool, news eS aggressiveg actions by the Turks brought about quickly a sharp upturr and throughout the. remainder of the day the bear side was at a disadvantage. The weakness at Liverpool was explained as due to large North American exports and increased Argentine offerings.
 Enlarged buying power which develop ed in the wheat market here came to. a considerable degree from houses with eastern connections 4 big cotton Specu- lator was said to have been active. in the purchasing, and a prominent Chicago trader was also credited : with having taken a liberal hand. Under such cir cumstances and with no. particular seti- ing pressure in the market, the May de livery ascended to a new high price rec ord for the season. Talk, however, about chances of a post election break in prices caused d little setback at the last. Corn and oats refiected the action of wheat despite reports that foreigners were out of the market for corn and that Argentina was underseliiTg the United States. -..
