CHICAGO eRAIN MARNET.

Chicago, Oct 1S.--ActNe buying which appeared to be largely for seaboard ac- counts had much to do today with bringing about higher prices for wheat The market closed firm at 1-4c to T. net advance with December l.09 5-8 to 1.e9 S-4 and May l.10 5-S to 1.10 S-4 Corn gained 1c to 1 3-s and oats S49 7-8 to l 1-S. In provisions there was a net decline of 2 to 25e.
 Wheat trading opened with spirited bidding and few offers, bullish sentiment having been generated by upturns in Liverpool qcotations and by continued transportation difficulties rendering de- mand urgent for grain that was likely to get through at all promptly to the seahoard, corn in particular. On ltI1e ensuing upturn in wheat prices, there was heavy selling to realize profits, ana 8 reaction followed, but then an enor- nous amount of wheat was taken out ot the pit, staioilizing tho market durin: the remainder of the day.
 Gossip that 1,50e, 900 bushels of Cana dian wheat and considerable United States wheat had been purchased for Europe did a good deal to uphold values in the later trading. Another bullish factor as to wheat was the Independent strength which the corn market showed from the outset. Bears took the posi- tio nthat a setback in wheat valces was becoming overdue but this view proved at least temporarily to be unattractive to the majority of dealers.
 Corn and oats were traded in on a broad scale, with some new high price records for the season being attained One decided stimulus to buyers was ar estimate that Argentina had only SO,, eoe,eoo bushels of corn left for export whereas five months must eIapse before the ne werop is available.
 Provisions went lower with hogs.

 Resumption of dividends on Southern Railway preferred stock, which had been suspended for year and a half was indicative of the improved business situation in the cotton belt. That stock gained 2 points while advances of a point or more were registered by Read Ing, New York Central, Lackawanna and Northern Pacific. Central of New Jer- sey gained 1-2 on 8 small turnover.
