-CHICAGO, Oct. 23. World crop shortage,
estimated at 23 per cent as compared with
the yield In 1915. sent wheat prices higher
and higher today as much at times as 5o
a bushel. The close was unsettled at 1.74
for December and Lb4&1.84 for May.
with the market as a whole showing gatna
of lc to 4 So net. Other leading staples,
roo, all scored an advance, corn lo to
2c, oats 2 to IE 4c and provisions 15c to
XI. 10.
Whest traders were confronted right at
the outset with ths startling figures in
regard to the world's shortage in supplies.
In this connection suthoritles were quoted
to show that the United states had already
sold to Europe aa much wheat as could
be comfortable spared and that a prospec
tive dearth was becoming mors apparent
dally.
Attempts to foiee a setback from ths
day's top level la wbee prices were vigor
ously pressed late In the session on the
ground that there had been aa advance of
more than 18 cents a bushel last week, but
buying orders around 11.74 wars altogether
too numerous to permit sales below that
value In this respect the bull side of ths
market was helped by tha fact that the
domestlo vlstble supply enlargement was
only about half as much aa we&s the case
a year ago. Transactions for the day were
said to have been morsthan double ths
usual volume.
Corn rose to the highest prices sines the
Civil War. No. 2 yellow for immediate de
livery touching S1.01 a bushel. Trading in
futures was on a hi g scale, with shorts pur
chsslng freely, influenced to a considerable
extent by bullish crop newa from Argentlaa
and by sympathy with the bulge in wheat.
Oata. like corn and wheat, were notably
active and at times excited. The upward
movement of prices was stimulated by as
sertions that export sales of oats for ths
dsy amounted to the hugs total of fully
2,000,000 bushels.
Provisions advanced' with grain to ths
hlgiivst prices yet this season. Lard, which
apparently is in snarp demand for Europs.
