Chicago, Sept 29.—The news in wb*at circles lncknei one ny and the seatl- sseht of traders the other today. The moat plauable reason for an advance, -when nothing but depressing announce ments were mode, was foun In the fact that today marked thee nd of the month as well as of the week as far as trad- hg was concerned. With the steady de cline that has taken pkice,of lat^ it Is but natur.U that a short Interest of some I'loportjioiis must have been created, ami v, love.- ihoi*e outi.t.imhn.; .> ivlly would to take place. This was the feature of the half-lioUdaV section today In addition to which the espousal of the long side oy Linn was not without its ef fect. as many traders and scalpers ‘rely on the accuracy of bla Judgment. The evening up of deals was the main busU ness of the pit, very little in toe way of new business being transacted. December wheat opened at5 3H, sold between 53HaS anl 537fe. cloeing at 63»iaT»—cents high er than yesterday. Cash wheat was in good demand and U of a cent higher. Com.—As 'was wheat, so was corn to day. The motive for the buying was found in the desire of shorts to settle ac counts for the week and month eo that they would have free foothold on Octo ber. Hollers of calls sold against their privileges freely, but the demand soon pushed the price above the limit and held it there. May com opened at 4JV4. sold between 49*4 and 60?, closing at 50*4—l cent higher than yesterday. Sales of cash corn ranged from U of a cent lower to % a cent higher, the close being strong. Oats tried io be consistent with the itne at action marked out by wheat and corn. The shorts in oats bought today. The cov ering operations were the prominent transactions of the session, prices ad vancing. Cash oats wece equally as strong os the futures, most sales being made at Vi a cent advance on yesterday. Provisions.—The buying of products which was begun yesterday was continued today, packers and commission bouses both showing Interest on that side of the market. Those who had outstanding con. tracts on the short side were disposed to buy, with the object of placing themselves even for the month of September. There wn3 an advance in live hogs which con tributed further to the strength. At the close January pork, January lord and January ribs -were each 6 cents higher than at the same time yesterday.
