Southwestern offerings: Offerings of wheat continue light, on of th largest cash bouses operating In that section bought 100,000 bushels overnight.

Understand vessels now thers will load over 6,000,000 bushels of wheat. . International wheat review, Broomhall cbles: United Kingdom displays a great deal of interest In statcmenU being put forth from your side that the North American 'surplus of wheal Is practically exhausted. - We consider that" th official crop figures and the calculations of ship ments as taade each week from North America do not confirm these statements. It Is true that Argentine Is still refrain Irg from eulllng. but these sellers cannot hold their surplus of wheat Indefinitely, meanwhile supplies Of wheat in the Unit ed Kingdom and In France aro very liberal nd In addition supplies of wheat in other Importing countries are" considered as suf 'clent. i Prospects for the calendar year of U21 Indicate there will b a .full supply of wheat for Importing countries' require ments even reckoning that the jiofh American contribution from the 1921 grain crops only totals 160,000.000 bushels in the first six months of the year. Wheafc- receipts at Portland, Tacoma and Seattle for season to December 1 were 20 per cent greater than last season to date in spite of tXe fact that this yesrs cron ls only 47per cent larger.

Substantia! inquiry for transportation shares infused appreciable activity and sength into the stock market today, after an irregular opening in which several new low records for the year wrre made. Buying of rails was most marked in the dividend-paying issues at gains of 1 to 6 points, but secondary or reorganized properties , of roads traversing rich agricultural, sections of the west and southwest were not neglected. Oils, steels, equipments and mo tors displayed greater stability than fat any tune since the recent un- Heaval and various speculative spe cialties in the tobaccos food, chem ical and utility groupsXcored va riable advances. . Stronger Demand Expected Altogether the movement went far to ward confirming the Impression that mucK liquidation ot the last fortnight bad its Inception in definite purposes In estab lish tax payments for the expiring year. The day's budget of news again includ ed existing backward conditions In the In dustrial situatton, the Iron Age, for ex ample, seeing no prospects of a "buying spurt" for several weeks. It Is believed, however, that the first few months of 1921 will witness a general demand for supplies, especially railway equipment. Best prices of tha day were registered, however, in the final hour. Ralls under the guidance of Northern Pacific, over hauled all others, and drove shorts to cover In many industrial stocks, a strong tons ruling at the close. Sales amounted to 1,100,000 shares. Trading in bonds, especially the con vertible or speculative Issues, was In keep ing with the demand for stocks, but Lib erty bonds and most Irregulars were Irre gular.

Chicago Grain By The Associated Tress, v - Chicago, Dec. 29. -Bullish senti ment revived in the wheat market today, owing more or less to word that a large number of vessels had arrived at Galveston and would load out 5,000,000 bushels within the next few days. Prices closed firm, 3J4$ 4c net higher, with March $1.66j$(a 1.6614 and May $l.r311.61V4. Corn griined l2c and oats fji' ViC In provisions, the outcome va ried from 24c decline to 20c ad vance. Bears at Disadvantage. At first the wheat market Hhowed a downward tendency, largely as a rtsult tt apparent absonce of any sign of hew frxport business. Besides, fresh declines l:i th value of cotton formed an element tf depression. Later, however, liberal clearances of wheat and flour from the seaboard attracted extensive no!cc. and together with the numerous vessel arriv als at Galveston, put the bears at a dis advantage. A broader domestic milling demand for wheat was also reported, and country offerings were small, despite ao advance of 1 cent for shlpme.it to th gulf. Talk of competition ahead from Argentina failed to act as an offset , Indications of a relatively light move ment next woek helped to strengthen the corn after a weak start. There were signs, too ot a little European liuylng at both Chicago and St. Louis. Oats follow ad corn up grade. Provisions averaged higher with grain, despite lower quotations on hogs. .
