Chloago, Oct 17. Sbnsattonal advances In the value of wheat resulted today from wild rushes to buy which accompanied a big broadening out of export business. The mar ket closed excited at nearly the topmost figures reached. Net gains were 6c to 7c a bushel, with Doeember 91.12 to 9113. and May 1. to 91. 14. Corn finished lc to l01e higher, and oats up lc to 1 c. In provisions the final range tarled from 9c decline to a rise of lie. Persistent buying; on the part of for eigners tended to carry the wheat market upward from the start, but It was not until the last hour of the session that orlces went skyrocketing in good earnest. Estimates after the close Indicated that since yester day Europeans had acquired more than 2, 600.000 bushels of wheat from the relatively n.eager supply In the United States. In this connection reports were current that the tin ui n government oorcea vessel rates on the Atlantic down from 28c a bushel to 10c and was bending all. energies to lessen the cost otherwise of handling wheat shipment from this country. Such reports put shorts and other purchasers into a turmoil that was but little It any abated when the aona cleared the pit ' Bmarmtnff or Argentine wheat crop esti mates as a result of drouth seemed to have much to do with the Increased European de mand, having reached a point today which made the exportable surplus of Argentina seem so Incredibly low that the foreigners were withheld pending verification. The ef fect on the trade, however, was nevertheless radically bullish and waa rendered more so, by news of, heavy snowstorms In Canada wnere inreening, oniy nail completed, waa said to have been brought to a standstill. There also were Indications that both French ana iianan import needs would be greater tnan was me case last year. .Besides, war news was not of a sort to ncourin hone of an early peace, especially advices Just be fcre the close of the day's trading that the Russians had suffered a severe defeat In Guilds. Corn waa lifted by enlarged export de mand. One house alone was said to have olHpoHcd of about 410,000 bushels to Europe. Oats, although strong and active, seemed to be merely paralleling the action of other cereals. Higher quotation on hogs and grain car ried provisions up grade throughout nearly the entire! list. October lard went to new top figures for the season. Cash Prices Wheat: No. 1 red, 91.19 01.aft; No. 1 red, 91.17 011: No. 1 hard, 91.1201.14; No. 1 hard, 91.ll01.61.

The present issue of $3,000,000 has been underwritten and this provides ample funds to enable the . Company to push its plans into effect rapidly. EARNINGS The Southern Oil A Transport Corporation plans to increase its production to 25,000 bbls. of oil a day and market it The estimated cost of oil delivered at Atlantic ports by its own ships is 49.07 cents per bbt. Estimated annual profits, basing ales of the fuel oil at $1 per bbt; at Atlantic ports and relatively low prices for refined products are! 3,650,000 bble. fuel oil, 50.95 cento per bbl. profit. .$1,858,945 $6,053,948 This would equal M 0 per cent on the $11,650,000 of Issued capital. To allow for contingencies, however, the management estimate, profits when the present plans are fully completed eq lal to 40 per cent. . .These profits are not based on the present highly favorable prices for fuel oil $2.10 per bbl. but at $1 per bbl., a price . that may be termed basic, as at that level it will displace coal at 13 a ton and this means a stable market practically without limit Messrs. Johnson Huntley state that they believe this company will hare no difficulty in maintaining a production of 25,000 bbls. of oil a day. - ' ' Books to receire applications for shares at $8 per share will bo opened MONDAY, OCTOBER 16th, 1916, x at the offices of the undersigned and will bo closed without notice.
