On the Chicago market wheat
opened weak but buyers entered the
pits on renewed advices Of damage
to the winter crop and indications OF
reduced seeding in the spring wheat
areas. One estimate was that less
than 70 100000 acres of spring wheat
will warrant harvesting.
The upswing carried December fu-
lures to IS 7-8 cents, the highest
price paid here since early in 1881
After the market closed, however, a
carload of No. 2 red wheat sold at

Prices at the close were slightly
lower than the best because of profit
taking but the finish was from ia
to / 3-8 cents bushel above Mon
days close and almost two cents
above the low recorded in Tuesday
mornings reaction. Corn and other
grains turned upward with wheat.
There was little trading at Win
nipeg but prices there also were up
about two cents bushel, based on
gains in the United States.
The stock market also got away to
q poor start but rallied strongly be-
fore the close. Rails led the way and
lifted other shares with them.
