Corn receipts are still small and stock
Receipts of oats are under tho estimate.
The threshing of oats will continue for

up 1-64^6-Sc, and outs were l-44j>5-8c
higher. Provisions were unsettled at
the outset on disappointing cables,
better' weather In the northwest than
expected, and somewhat larger world’s
shipment. The market for wheat
showed great strength. The tone was
of a steadily hardening sort, due to tpe
persistent commission buying of all
small lots rather than of the rapidly
gaining oort. Continental markets were
all up. The gain at Berlin was «c and
4 I-2c on rye. There was an excellent
coast demand for wheat, but the firm-
ne*9 of holders restricted the move
ment. Thera were deliveries of 3.-

the Immediate Influence In today’s
dealings. Prices under, thlg lead open.
<d higher, and after a certain amount
of hesitation rose with an appearance
of greater strength than was revealed
at any time last week. From a specu
lative standpoint, the postponement
until Thursday of the Standard Oil
dissolution case wan a favorable fac

selves to active traders for several
days. It was also a matter of some
relief for similar reasons that the Al
ton rebate decision, which was to have
been handed down In Chicago today,
wna postponed for another two weeks.
But the main consideration was the
practical proof afforded by the day’s
dealings that short covering has not
been the only power behind the buy
ing. but that an Important outside ac
cumulation of stocks has been In prog,
