FLOUR PU8CWISES LM1EE IVIIKAT HAS SHARP ADVANCE IX CHICAGO MARKET. all of the so-called distressed flour has been cleaned up for export and although there was no evidence of foreign buying of wheat today It Is expected that some governmental orders are to be placed very shortly.. In analyzing the prospective sit uation, the possibility of a tremendous flour demand for domestic consumption should receive more consideration than any other factor. We believe the buying of wheat to fill these sales will soon as sert Itself In the market. Corn The market was a strong one throughout the session with buying some what more aggressive and hedging sales readily absorbed. Receipts of 375 cars met a good demand at advance of about one half cent compared with the futures. With hogs holding well above the $3 level, there Is little incentive to sell corn. Oats Trade was of moderate propor tions, but the market was strong, with sentiment Inclined to the constructive side. The cash demand and spot basis were fractionally higher. Shipping sales of B0.04M) bushels were reported. We recom mend Investment purchases at present prices. Rye Leading- elevator Interests were conspicuous on the buying side and this market gave a good account of Itself. There was little doing in the cash de partment, but No. 2 rye was firm at 5 cents under May. , Leading1 futures ranged as follows: - WHEAT. Open. High. Low. Close.

CHICAGO, Jan. 11. Wheat scored a material advance in price today, helped by gossip that foreigners were purchasing fu ture aenveries ana that a large export buslnes in flour was under way. Wheat closed strong. lc to 2Vc net higher, with May $1.10 to $1.10-J, and July c to $1. Corn gained c to -)c. oats He to c and provisions 10c to 1.1c. Strength In wheat at first was based to a considerable extent on the fact that no confirmation had been obtained for yes terday's reports that several French banks were In trouble. Higher prices for wheat and some broadening of the market was also ascribed to talk that Germany had taken 7.000.000 bushels of Argentine wheat In the last two weeks and that Japan had taken more than 1,000,000 bushels of Pacific coast wheat. Including Canadian, on the recent break. Closing prices were at the day's top level. Corn and oats were 71rmer In sympathy with wheat and as a result of continued active buying of corn. Provisions followed upturns In the value of grain and hogs. The Chicago grain letter received vester- day by the Overbeck A Cooke company of Portland follows: Wheat Sellers of yesterday were the best Duyers today and It was quite appar ent that many in the trade who have lately maintained bearish ideas were In clined to alter their position because of the change in the general tone of impor tant news items. The bugaboo for the past few days has been the bearish for eign advices which we have persistently claimed must sooner or later be sup planted by domestic conditions. Judging from the action of the market today and the numerous mesages received telling at a broadened flour demand, that time Is now at hand.
