WHEAT is LITTLE
CHANGED AT CLOSE
OF DAYS TRADING
Prices Fractionally Higher
Despite Late Realiz-
ing Sales.

Copyright by The San Antonio Light
Chicago, Sept. 6.-Wbeat support
was sufficient to absorb the late real
izing sales. Cash interests believe
that deliveries on September contracts
from now on will be light because it
will be more profitable for elevators
to take September and carry it to
December. Local cash sales were
100000 bushels of wheat, $4,000
bushels of corn and $1,000 bushels
of oats.
The wheat market closed Is to
IA cent higher.
Oats were Is to IA cent higher.
Lard was II to II IL cents higher
and ribs II Il cents higher.
Corn closed is cent lower to 81
cents higher.
There was little change in wheat
prices today. Business was largely
local and sentiment seemed to lean to
the bull side.
The news was mainly bearisb. but
this failed 10 ,attract any selling.
Most of the news was from Canada,
telling of heavy country deliveries,
better quality Of the current deliver
les and the abandonment OF many
large pooling arrangements. Mother
well, Canadian minister of agricul-
ture, is credited with the statement
that the western provinces have raised
a record wheat crop and should ag-
gregate over 401,0O0000 bushels.
Torn was quiet. September showed
little change with longs inclined to
supply the demand. New crop
months were stronger. There was a
better commission house demand in
evidence based on the excessive rains
in parts of the corn belt. which is
preventing the new crop from drying
out.

The japanese have adopted the

The available supply Of rice hera
is comparatively small for relief pur-
poses, but the California barley crop
is the largest in years and will be
amply sufficient to make up for the
