ment of big flour sales apparently
pointing to surprising scarcity of flour
in the eastern part OF ;sle country led
to higher prices today for wheat. As
much as 100000 barrels were report
ed to have been bought overnight for
shipment east the largest business OF
the kind this year. us
Closing quotations on wheat were
firm, 1ac to p net higher, with corn
3sc to 20 &c up, oats 1sc off to an
equal advance, and provisions varying
from sc decline to a rise of &c.
Large scale eastern purchases Of
flour reported today were direct from
millers, and this circumstance was
construed here as evidence that stocks
of flour in second hands east and in
course of distribution have been un-
duly curtailed. Today's flour sales
were estimated as alone representing
1,250,000 bushels of wheat. In this
connection it was recalled that wheat
demand of late by domestic mills has
been unusually keen. Talk was also
heard thai Russia will buy wheat and
flour before long, despite official de-
malls that purchases are contemplated
Contributing to strength of the
wheat market today were reports cur
rent that considerable crop damage
has resulted from alternate freezing
and thawing weather east of the
Mississippi. Advices were also at hand
that snowfalls in some districts west
proved to be less than had been in
dicated. Other bullish factors includ-
ed word that Spain had authorized
immediate importation of 100000
bushels of wheat An opposite influ-
enoe, however, came from news that
European countries have raised 49,
100000 tons more potatoes than a
