iw Heavy Buying of Wheat Sends Up Prices Sharply Foreign News Comes More Bullish and Persistent Sup port Given Throughout Day in Market. Hy f IIARI.ES J, ERYDAX, Inlversul Service Stuff Correspondent. Chicago. Pec. 26.—Heavy buying of wheat today, considerable of which was « i'.’fitted to shorts, lifted prices sharply to new tops for the season. May wheat dosed at $1.81 Vs at the outside, the best 1 \el n( the year. Foreign news came more bullish, and with Winnipeg relia lively firm compared with Chicago, per fistent .support was given throughout i ha day. Wheat closed 3%c to 4%c higher. Corn v.us lHc to 2Tic higher; oats were lftc io 2c up, and rye ruled lVic to 2 Sc higher. Wire service was still deficient and out sidn trade was limited as a result, but the local element was unusually active. ! Above $1.78*4 for the May delivery right, up to the close profit sales were enor-i Yunus, but the ever-increasing demand proved more than offsetting strength. Kxport sales were of holiday character. There were bids, however, and the sea board confirmed 300.000 bushels. Liver pool was closed today, but will be open tomorrow. News on corn was not especially Im pressive. but tho market was strong and registered best levels of the day at the • lose. At the close corn was firmer, all or which whs reflected in the December. No. 2 yellow corn sold here at $1.32. Pri mary receipts were 1,174.000 bushels, against 1.427,000 bushels a year ago. Commission house* were active buyers of oats throughout the session, and prices registered a good advance. This grain, It is claimed, is headed for much higher levels. Rye met with considerable realizing on the advances, but the undertone was strong. Provisions reacted under commission house realizing, but attracted good sup port Inter in sympathy with the action «* f the grains. Lard was 15c to 20c higher and ribs were 27tyc advanced. Pit Notes. Chicago. Dec. 26.—The cable from George M. Lecount, in the Argentine, stat ing that the southern hemisphere wheat crop is made, and estimating an export ube surplus of 1 12,000,000 bushels, was the basis for much of *the early buying of wheat. Lecount has been in the Argen tine for <iver a month, and has traveled extensively throughout that country. His report wa* given no little credence by the trade. A surplus of 112,000,000 bush els compared with 175,000,000 bushels last season. The Department of Agriculture was credited with a report estimating the world wheat crop at 2,298,679,000 bush els. nirlnst 3,742.545.000 bushels last year, allowing for a loss of 60,000.000 bushels In the Argentine and 200,000,000 bushels in t'anada. Broomhall states that foreign ers are relying on the Argentine and Australia for large suplies the next four or five months, but believes that North America will have to ship plenty of grain sIso to satisfy requirements. Swiss interests are reported in Canada negotiating for the shipment of wheat to milling concerns in Switzerland after tno first of the year. The government mo nopoly. it is said, will expire January 1. Supplies of wheat in Hungary are report ed inadequate for requirements. It looks as though reports of a worldwide demand for cosh wheat existing at this time are true. Actual pressure of wheat, speculative or cash, has been practically non-exist ent. The selling is largely by longs tak ing profits, wtih new buyers taking the offerings of leading bulls adding to their line9. Tho wfyeat market recently has shown great apparent strength, which to tite grain trader* has been very remark aide. When one consider* the probable v beat supplies left In this country, and v hat the southern hemisphere crops will l»e. quite a sizable amount of surplus grain has been figured on for the next four or five months. But there is no reason to believe, however, world con ditions considered, that buyer* will not have to pay still higher price* for their want*. CHICAGO PRICES. By Updike Grain company, Atlantic <312.

Big, Broad Bull Market Develops, Advance Is Great Large Gains in Considerable Number of Issues; Steels Strong; Equipments in Demand. By RICHARD HNI.UM. Universal Service Financial Editor. New York, Dec. 26.—About the only people who seem to guuge this market | accurately at the present are the nonpro fessionals. Wall street opinion generally was that the dealings between Christmas and New Year's would be largely profes sional. There was nothing to it Rt pres ent from a hull viewpoint, and there would not be until after a sharp reac tion. which they looked for early in January. But In spite of professional opinion there was a good size volume of buying of stocks today. A big. broad bull mar ket under which there whs the greatest average advance of the year developed. There were large advances in a consid erable number of issues, but the striking feature was that In nearly ail instances the large gains were in stocks that are good dividend payers now and have pros pects of inc reasing their dividends In the new year, or In securities that give every reasonable promise of being dividend payers. The steels were strong. United States Steel went to 119*4—the highest in seven years.- As usual, it slipped back a hit aftpr making a record. Various of the Independent steels were strong. The coo pers had a big day. Boston reported tne metal selling in substantial quantity there at lBc a pound. A few months ago copper was selling around 12He. Equipments were in demand and so were various of the merchandisers. Pool operators were busy in special storks, like Cast Iron Pipe. Crucible, American Can. Worthington Pump. etc. The volume of business was reduced considerably from the hectic days when more than 2,000,000 shares in a day was common, but it was a good, healthy total at that. Wire trouble, no doubt, con tracted It somewhat. Foreign exchange firm. Money rates unchanged. Coffee, dull and strong, 59 to 19 points up. Sugar, dull. 1 to 4 points down Wheat went on a rampage, soaring to |1.K0%. the highest price of the year, and carrying the other grains with it. What stirred It to action was not clear. Market Information was scant owing to continuation of wire trouble, and little i Mine through from Chicago except quota tions. Winnipeg was fully as bullish as fhi engo. Cotton was helped by the strength of storks and the grains. Liverpool was enjoying a holiday and will be closed until Monday. f New York Quotations _ New York stock exchange quotation* furnished by J. 8. Bache A Co., Omaha National Bank building. Wed. High.

Dec. 2*.—Resumption of trading In tha bond markat after the Christmas holiday waa marked by a fresh advance In pricea. under the leadership of the copper liens. Net gains, ranging from 1 to 4% points In the active issues, carried a number of convertible bonds to new high pricea for the year. Holiday influences, however, were reflected in the smaller volume of business. Magma Copper 7s led the upward move ment In the copper shares, spurting 4% points to a 1924 top price at 130. Small er gains by Chile 6a and Anaconda 7§ were In line with the general buoyancy of copper stocks, based upon the riae In the price of the red metal to the highest figure of the year and the optimism engendered by Anaconda's resumption of dividend pavments earlier In the week. Railroad bonds displayed a firm tone, with trading featured by a riae of 3% points In Norfolk A Western convertible •Is to a new high level at 133%. Among • he other issues which gained a point or so were “Katy” adjustment 5s. Erie con vertible 4s "D.” Chesapeake A Ohio con vertible 5s and New York Central 6s. Sugar company liens also gave a good demonstration of group strength. Warner refunding 7s Punta Alegre 7a and East ern Cuba 7%a moving up 1 to 1% points, were the leaders. Tha holiday interruption forced a lull fn new financing, although bankers were at work on a number of new offerings scheduled for ne*t week.
