The advance of lOo a barrel this morning by a local miller followed a similar movement of an out-of-town maker yesterday afternoon. The ad vance had been expected for some time and has been freuuentlv Dredlcted in this report. Although today's ad vance Is quoted by one of the larger millers of the coast, some of the In-1 terlor millers did not change their val ues. They did not pull down their quotations when th local concern took 16c a barrel off prices and are there- lore still 60 a barrel above the local people despite today's advance.

There was a somewhat firmer tone in the local wheat market today, fol lowing an improved tone in Chicago and Liverpool with higher prices else where. While there was no change In local, cash values, the market showed a better buying demand and former prices held well. On the board of trade, October and December options were un changed from yesterday, but there was an advance of c a bushel In November delivery. Oats futures wer weaker on the I board of trade today and the cash situa tion Is somewhat duller although prices are practically the same as yesterday. An easier demand Is the rule. There were no quotations on October today but the bid on November is 2c a cen tal under yesterday.' The bid on De cember Is unchanged but the asked price ha been moved up 2c to $1.A0. Cash barley Is quiet and the pries bid today on November delivery was shaded 2o a, cental. Other options showed no change for the day. Board of trade prices today: CLUB WHEAT. Open. Close.
