CHICAGO, March 1s.-Wheat went
skyrocketi today, shooting upward
10 cents q bushel at the opening OF
the Chicago market. May wheat
touched $l.63, as compared with S1.b3
70 $1.53h at yesterdays finish A sharp
rise in values at Liverpool preceded
the advance here.
Trading was on a tremendous scale,
with fluctuations correspondfngly vfo-
lent. Within few minutes the mar
ket was down nearly cents from the
initial top, with prices at times
swinging l cent between trades.
Little Wheat for Sale.
Almost a complete famine Of offer
ings characterized the start, but buy
ing orders were at flood tide. and
frantic bidding ensued until 10 cents
a bushel had been added to prices be-
fore half of the brokers in the pit
could take their bearings. Then SELL
Ing turned loose wildly and reactions
developed
Before the backward impetus was
checked May wheat dropped to
$1.5Sh, but was still cents or more
above yesterdays close. A rally Of
almost cents came instanter. Mean
while. the Liverpool market, which
had opened at / pence to pence
decline. had mounted to 8 pence net
gain.
Heavy Fsreign Buying.
Big buying here by foreigners was
an outstanding feature. There were
also indications that liberal quanti-
ties of wheat available for immediate
delivery were being purchased by ex-
port interests. All the wheat offered
last night to transatlantic centers
was said TO have been accepted with
promptness.
European buying at Winnipeg to-
day also was reported, and had a de-
cided stimulating effect on the Chi

the welfare of the individual" de-

II am sure you have not stopped

If he were ever re-employed the people

particular, would always live in daily

He has just destroyed the designs
and models, which were the property
of the association, for the deliberate
purpose of destroying the memorial

which he would dictate.
