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*.

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.

New York. 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. Negotiation*
for a $3,000,000 10-vear 7 per cent loan
to the Saar district of Germany by a syn
dicate of New York snd Frankfort bank
ers were said to be nearing completion.
