Omaha, Fntareer Market,
The Argentine altuation la still regarded
a very bullish, but th Blackening of the
export demand waa inclined to give
bearish tendency to the wheat market. .
The total amount of wheat workeds for
export etn.ee the eloe of the market ye'
terday waa about 1,400,000 bushela, but only
a amall part of thta amount waa aold In
th local pit.
Several of th tonga who have expected
wheat to aell around the $1.10 mark have
apparently been aa tin fled to . take their
profit, and thta prof)t-taklng waa In aoine
degree th cauae of lower prices.
Th altuation on corn la firm, and while
the December opened a trifle lower the
export demand for thla article wa rather
brisk and the market remained ateady dur
inar the entire aeulon.
December oat opened a trifle lower, but
showed a gain of about o over the opening
quotations.
Th traae in corn ana oat waa not very
active and waa confined mostly lo the pit
element, there being vary few outsider In
the market ,
Uaal range of optional
Art
gave a fresh touch of confidence to the bulls
In th final dealings, but came none too
aoon, aa the market had for aome time pre
viously been inclined to waver, owing to
doubt that the foreign demand would con
tinue. Including the 1,000,000 bushels aold
today, the total export bualnee of the laat
twenty-four hours waa figured thla evening
at 1,760,000.
Corn rallied owing to the iatefttrengta In
wheat. During most of the day, though, the
corn market wa weak as a result of large
consignment from the country and .because
heavy marketing or live stock waa ex
pected to reduce fedelng.
uat swayed confident y with otner cere
als. Considerable selling was Induced by the
huge proportion of the visible supply.
AlthouBh Drovlslon showed weakenss
early, with hog and grain, the finish was In
general at a net advance. The basis of the.
upturn appeared to be the rally In corn and
