Chicago, Oct. 31.—Wheat opened strong aud higher with more general lntcrst. Min neapolis ran up Immediately after tho nneulng to %r above lust night's close. Snorts evidently nervous. Corn opened steady to a shade easier for May aud* a shade tinner for December. Weather prospects are for fair weather for several days. Chicago Record llerabl: “Wheat trade conditions are sound nml healthy, although In the main quite unsatisfactory to the speculative element. There Is n steady ex port trade In all grades of wheat, larger tluiii nny of the export houses will ad mit. except In confidence, aud the exjiort trade in flour Is liberal, not only from win ter wheat mills, but from the spring wheat millers*on Imth sides of. the Canadian Hue. Ouc of the proinlneut exporters of the coun try, whose ninny years of experience enablp him to tnlk with Intelligence, points out the plain common sense view thnt Is crJdently basis of about 80c per bushel free on board vessel at the seaboard. With prctvut mod erate ocean freight, this gives a lower* priced foo*l supply than the consuming countries hnvc Wen accustomed to, nnd they are, therefore, steady buyers. Thus far In the crop year. America has shipped about 32.000,000 bushels more wheat than during the corresponding period Inst year. Russia meanwhile has shipped al»out 30,* .ushels loss, nod the Danube and Ar- luring Husain 000,008 f ;ent!im togexncr nrw anon, uuuui inshels more. India nnd other shipping tut tries show trifling gains. Evidence of broadening speculative trade In coin bus been accumulating all week. It has ovMeutj ly been born largely of the light supply of contract com—less than 500,000 bushels In public elevators—shd-the rough weather which promised to interfere x/OU. ilie curing of the corn to a, merchantable condition. Supplies of old <4>rn also have run light during the week, despite the nrc- vailing premiums. The rather Inrge short * • December has n good portion contracts. The shipping trade Improved a little toward the end of the week, but the car shortage made a large trade Impossible, ns well ns Interfering with the innrektlngs from tho West. There Is i widening popular belief thnt corn nt nrrent figures Is good value. The presetit level has been nbont low point for several years.
