CHICAGO, Doc. 6. Wheat roso in prtoo
here today, helped by advancing: Quota
tions at Liverpool and by reports that
Italv waa Dtirchaaing on a large scale In
Argentina. The market closed firm, 1&o
to He above last nigni. v;orn nnianea
unchanged to 1-18 down, oats .unchanged
to c up and, provisions at VMUha to 1W$

Reports of increased speculative buy-
1. - . T I ir.,ru...l whlh mtmm will (A llHVA
accompanied a material upturn there int
th price of wheat, had a tenaency 10
draw rather more attention that usual to
the foreign outlook. Assertions in re
gard to the Italian government having
contracted to take one-third of the es
timated surplus of the Argentine crop
added to bullish sentiment, although not
by any means given full orVoonoa. On
the contrary, a majority of traders here
seeme.d to lean, for the time, being, to
the Idea that hlarh ocean freights ana
war risks would prove an effectual bar
rier to heavy Argentine shipments, and
that the United States would not have
any burdensome competition during the
next two months.
Profit-taking sales on th part of lead
ing holders of wheat checked to a notice
able extent the upward swing of th mar
ket. The fact, however, that receipts
were decreasing In all quarters and that
Argentine weather had again become ad
vert for the harvest operated to pro
vent any Important reaction to th bear
sidi
Corn, at first, hardened with wheat,
' and as a result of rrJn and of active de
mand for feeding. The bulla were handi
capped, though, by knowledge that re
ceipts for the week had been about the
largest on record at this time of the year.
Oats kept to a narrow range. Country
offerings were llKht and the seaboard
demand fair. Predictions of generous re
ceipts of hogs next week more than wiped
out early gains in the provision market

Sunday. HoUday.
CATTLU There were no cattle In sight
this morning, at loast none of any con
sequence, ror the week receipts have
been larger than for several week back
and slightly larger than for the corre
sponding week a year ago. Owing to the
large receipts and demoralised condition
of the market at Chicago during the first
half of the week prices here on all kinds
of killing cattlo broke sharply. Corn-fed
steers were quoted as 36nbOo lower the
middle or the week, but during the latter
half prices strengthened up so that at
the close of the week the market is not
over 150'.'5c lower than a week ago. Range
beef steers, owing, to th fact that they
kill out a better percentage than half-fat
corn-feds, have been given the prefer
ence, as usual at thia time of th year,
and they have remained about steady
all the week.
Cows and heifers experienced about the
same decline as beet steers during the
first half of the week, but later on
firmed up and are at the cloae only
about 15i'25c lower than last week.
Feeder have been in good deman'l and
very moderate supply all the week and
are at the close Lvdi'io higher than a
week ago. On the other hand stock calves
have been in large supply, and in conse
quence are 2,'iQ&Go lower than a week ago.
It would be well for shippers to thor
oughly understand that the break In
cattle this week at Missouri river points
nas been due entirely to the folly of
jnippers In flooding th Chicago market.
In conscquenc of the large receipts at
the Chicago market pricea broke badly
and forced wssvern markets down. Th
best thing that could happen to the mar
ket would be a falling off In receipts at
Chicago for a few days.
Another thing thai shippers should
bear In mind Is that stockers and feeders
from states reoently under quarantine
cannot be sold In any market for res hi p-
ment to the country. In other words, all
th stock under present govemmoni reg
ulations shipped to market from terri
tory recently under quarantine can b
sold only for Immediate slaughter. On
the other hand, feeders from territory
not recently under quarantine can be
shipped from th South Omaha market
Into any territory not actually under quar
antine at the time of shipment.

HOGS The total supply was hardly as
heavy a on Friday, there being some
thing like seventy-four cars, or b.jJO head,
received. As twenty, cars of these came
direct, however, the actual offerings
amounted to about he same as yesterday.
For the week receipts total 60, (wo bead,
being 23.000 larger than last week snd
16,000 heavier than last year. The week's

they accounted for a fair share of the run.
Packera ' firat uia were Loauy 10 irons,

they failed to show much change, so that
in the end th bulk of the offerings
moved on a steady to strong basis. As
was noted yerferVkJr. there were two dis

and another for strictly killers. Condition;

shippers brought a premium of from iho

bunches of real light stuff weighing
around 140 to 1 pounds her and as
