WHEAT RISE HALTS
Bids Put Out in Country Show
No Advance.
BLUEST EM SELLS AT $1.48
Trade Looks for Reaction Jn Eastern
Speculative Centers After Excite
ment or Past Week Oats
and Barley Are Strong.
The demand for wheat in the. TCorthwest
continued strong yesterday in spite of tne
unsettled close at Chicago. Bids put. out in
the country were about the same as on the
preceding day, though for good lots of any
kind buyers were ready to pay more.
At the Merchants Exchange. November
bluestem sold at $1.47 and December blue
mem at $1.43, an advance of 1 cent over
Thursday. Other bids ranged from V to
2 cents up. The following sales were posted
at the Exchange:
fonn busheds November blnestem $ 1.47
6000 bushels December bluestem......
100 tons October bran 21.00
100 tons November bran 21.00
The opinion was more or less general in
the grain trade that a reaction is due In
the speculative markets In the East, after
the excited advances of the past week, and
many looked for a break yesterday. Chicago
early In the day went 3 cents over Thurs
ny'a close, but the hot pace could not be
maintained and the net gain at the wind-up
was only cent for December. From this
it was figured that a turn in the tide has
set In and the market has reached its crest,
for the present at least.
Oats and barley scored further advances
en the local board. Oats have displayed
-much strength of late and the demand has
Increased on the theory that oats have been
too cheap In relation to barley. The oats
market is not far from the Eastern basis
and a renewal of rail shipments would oc
casion no surprise.
There was no announcement of further
change in local flour prices. There Is a
good Eastern and export demand for flour,
but with the car situation as It is now
millers cannot take much advantage of this
inquiry.
I'.radstreets estimates clearances this week
at 6. 334,000 bushels of wheat and 870,000
bushels of corn.
Terminal receipts, in cars, were reported
by the Merchants' Exchange as follows:

INSI-Et'TION AT DKLIVEBY rOIXTS
FruitBrowers Agency Mill Inaugurate Im
portant Service.
According to a telegraphic dispatch to
Paul II. 'eyrauch. president of the Fruit
growers' Agency, Inc.. the Federal office of
markets is to Inaugurate a very important
Inspection service on apples at the receiv
ing end. C. T. More, who has recently vis
ited the leading fruit districts of the North
west with this new service in view, is to
be stationed at Fort Worth and Dallas.
Texas, to supervise this Inspection service.
The office of markets, through the co
operation of shippers and railroads, plans to
inspect cars of apples which pass through
Kort Worth and Dallas. Aa these two places
are division points on a. number of leading
southern railroads, the service will cover
fruit distributed over a large territory.
Inspection serlce on fruit going to 'exas
and tributary territory is especially Import
ant because shippers have hitherto been at
the mercy of the buyer In these markets.
Texas Is so far distant from other large fruit
markets that fruit which Is rejected for any
reason by a buyer there cannot well be di
verted and hence must often be disposed of
at considerable loss.
The Fruitgrowers' Agency has been -working
for this inspection service for some time
and hopes ultimately to secure a service
which will minimize the shipper's risk with
unscrupulous buyers on declining markets.

BUYING HAS NOT BEEN CHECKED
Heavy Buying Probable as Lone m the War
Continues.
NEW YORK, Oct. 20. Tomorrow Brad
street's will say:
Trade and industry never moved at a
quicker pace than at present. While ab
normally high commodity prices counsel cau
tion lest a sudden veering of trade condi
tions msy come, demand Is so Insatiable
that buying seemingly will go on while the
European war lasts. As yet there Is no sign
of the saturation point being reached as re
gards supplies of goods, and while high
prices are complained of. there is no evl.
dence,. aside from conservatism in buying
some textiles that have advanced largely, of
the buying movement being checked.
Weekly bank clearings were $6,663,210,000.

TONE AT CLOSE UNSETTLED
Wild Hushes to Buy In 12arly Part
of Session ' Send Market t'p
3 Cents All News of
Day Is Bullish.
CHICAGO. Oct. 20. Highest prices, since
the Americsn Civil Wsr. except dune g the
Letter "corner." resulted in the wheat mar
ket today from a aeries of wild rushes
to buy and from a temporary scarcity of
offerings. On. the bulge, however-, profit
taking sales were heavy and thre was
unsettled close. Klnal nrlees with. Irem-
ber at 1.9H to S1.C9H and May a.69fc to
si.oH-. ranged from e decline to e ad
vance, as comDared with vetenrla9's close.
Corn gained lVc to 2tc and oaus Sc to
Pi:. In provisions the ougcosne was
uncnangea to 40c higher.
Urgency to acquire wheat was manifested
Chiefly In the first half of th seaaloa.
One of the main reasons appeared to be
that yesterday's export sales wvre said to
have reached the huge total of nearly
2.000,000 bushels. Other causes Included a
contln-.iance of the Argentine drought, the
i?nion mat oniy a third, instsad or hair,
of the threshing in Canada had been done.
and the fact that stocks In Grat Britain
were decreasing to a serious extttnt. Aptton
of the British government In cotmmandeer
Ing all the Manitoba wheat tlsat dealers
had contracted for tended also to stimulate
buying here, until signs begsn to appear
that foreigners had. temporarily at least,
to a considerable degTee. stopped, following
the upward movement In prices.
Corn fotures Jumped 5 cent a bushel
at one time today, and the market for
Immediate delivery reached the notably high
level of SI a bushel for No. 2 yellow.
Husking delays certain to result from the
prevailing stormy weather had a jtood deal
to do with the rise, and so. too. dirt adverse
crop reports from Argentina, but more
than half of the gains failed to hald.
Oats, although unusually active seemed
to be swayed altogether by the course of
wheat and corn.
Provisions, Influenced by grain, advanced
to new- high levels, but underwent some
reaction nt tha last, owing to thw profit
talcing. An early break In the value of
hops was altogether Ignored.
