CHICAGO, Jan. 18. — War .news was not t needed to make a firm market In wheat. Di minishing euppiies were striking enough for I that purpose. In addition, the ' big bull.oper-; ator was an active buyer throughout the se&- ; slon. May opened %@*%c lower to a shade , higher at 8S%eSS9ic, and after touching 8STic ! the -price receded to 88%c. Buying by brokers ; supposed to be for the account of the big long [ was the means of checking the early declining I 1 tendency. Local traders were disposed to sell, I but the demand from the prominent holder dis- > couraged euch action. Later in the day a buying movement developed on world's ship ments, a decreased amount on passage and the flour situation in the Northwest. The leader of the longs was an open buyer during the last hour and the market became strong. May ad vanced to W.«c but lost part of the gain on profit taking. The close was strong, with May at £S%c. There was a strong tone In the corn market and higher prices were realized. May ranged 1 between 4S T »c and 40%c and closed at 49V4Q> 49%c. ' ' . ' ' Oats were firm except for a brief period of 1 business in sympathy with the leading grains J early In the day. May sold between 41c and ! 42c. closing at 41%c. Provisions suffered a little early weakness on ! receipts of hogs, but later the market became [ firm in sympathy with the strength in grains. ; Closing prices Ehowed slight gains.

Butter, Cheese and Eggs. The Cheese market Is in a bad way. Every dealer is loaded to the guards and nobobdy is able to find an outlet for it. The recent high prices led many Butter makers to abandon Butter for Cheese, and the result la an over stocked and unmanageable market. Oregon and Washington nre also loaded down and arc ship ping large lines into this market. So great has this influx from the north become that San Francieco dealers have lately notified their northern correspondents not to send any 1 more Cheese here, even on consignment, but I they are chipping Just the tame. Prices con tinue to decline. Eutter Is bnrely steady at the recent advance, j Stocks* arc still li$ht. but as dealers generally believe that the top has, been reached buyers are not purchasing except to supply their dally wants and the market is therefore quiet. Prices are unchanged. j Eggs continue weak, with a further shading I of the Inside quotations. ..
