OHICAOO, Nov. 11— Near the cloire today
reporu of heavy export eng-a gemenu and a
r ry in foreign markets caused wheat to
become suddenly active and strong. May
elo ed at an advance of _c. Com and oau
clos«d a shade higher. Provisions are un- J
chsnged to 2%c higher.
Th* opening trao.s in wheat showed de
clines of Hvlttc. May atsrtlng at from 65_
The market began to mend shortly
after tbe opening, and though tbe advance !
was very slow for two hours It was sure. !
Minneapolis and liulut:i reported 1,840 cars,
eermpa.-'d with 1 "42 last week and 821 a year *
ago. Chicago receipts, however, were light,
189 cars, though 01 good quality, 48 being ,
of contract grade. Short*' considered It ad- .
vlaable to take the proflts on yesterday's de
cline and the buying soon sent the May price
sp to 85Sc. Por a long time the market hung
between that figure and 6_V_c After 12
o'clock the tone of the seaboard and foreign

tor a time, but the steadiness of New V* rk
oonvlnced rpeojlators that a good bualne.-s ,
was bet tig done. New York finally claimed :
as high as 120 loads, taken at a_ poInU :
The cash demand here and at Northwest
poinU showed improvement. There was soms !
talk of a po.alble squeeze ln December at '
New York, and tbls had an effect on local
aborts Who covert d freely. As the session '
progressed the demands from rhorU gradu- •

In eplte of the violent activity of the mar

stocks wa* fully equal to the deanand. Room
traders detected eviden.. of realising hy large
ln-er-ets and c___t__ ce< i to -e n xhe market
with quite * marked effect on the grangers.
Th- haA , Ihe ettect of checkln* activity, and
the market fell into dullness until It re
ceived renewed Impetus from the strength o!
special stocks. The shorts In Sugar became
nervous as a result of the high loaning rate
for the stocks and covered some heavy lines,
ralsdnjr the price 2_. Union PaelUc preferred
pushed ud to 6.14, Brook'yn Transit above 69
and People's Gas above 17. Prices generally
ro*e to near the best again, ln sympathy with
this movement, and Invited renewed buying
for outside account through commission
nouses. But the k»vel wa* not maintained In
i the la*t hour, when call money was marked
j up t 024 per cent, and prices fell away
j throughout the list. Earlier gains were
practically wiped out ln the grangers, the
j Paciflee except Union Paciflc preferred, the
j Southern stocks and many specialties, inc!ud
• lag Federal Steel. Atchison preferred, which
I was again the leader of the market, shewed
: more substantial opposition to the decline
than many other Bto-_ks. Dealing ln all of the
Atchison securities was on an enormoqs
scale, and It was accompanied by reports of
the early entry into the directory of a finan
cial interest largely dctninant In _ock- Island.
There waa an unexplained advance of 2-_
points in Central Pacific, which was not Im
probably connected with the coincident
strength of Union Paciflc preferred. Pacific
Mail also advanced notably on account of
Increased earnings. The decline of the la_t
hour waa accompanied by Increased activity,
indicating a disposition towards liquidation.
The bond market wa* again phenomlnally
active and embraced a great variety of Is
sues. The Atchison adjustment 4s were, how
ever, easily the leaders, with total sales of
a par value of nearly 5_.000,000. This bond
advanced 2 per cent, to 73"_, *nd reacted 14
In the late dealings. The Atchison general 4s
were also largely taken. Prices are generally
\ higher than yesterday, though the highest of
the dcv were not maintained Total sales,
I 85.235.008. United Stata. 6s declined _ In

Post A Flagg wire us: 'The market today
w:is the most acitve that we have had teg j
many months, dealings ln both nocks and
bonds being on a huge scale. The big pro
f* scions! operators took advantage of the ac
tive outside demand to sell Urge Mocks of
long Mocks, but these were well taken, and
not nntll just at tbe close did the market i
show any signs of feeling these sales. In the
last hour Wall street waa flooded with talk |
of * implications with Spain and an appeal '
by that nation to the powers of Europe
against our demand*, which, they claim, .
are arbitrary and unreasonable. There were
nine stories of mere rate cutting and predic
tions that tomorrow's b*nk statement would
be a very bad one. Al! this, or at least a
great portion of it. we believe wa* given out
tn make a reaction, and came from those
who have sold their long stocks. That the
market should react somewhat Is very nat
ural sfter such a sensational advance, but j
we don't believe we w!ll get very much of a
set back, and If such a thing should occur '■
we would advise purchases ln libera!
amounts, as we believe the market Is bound
to go htgher. and that, too, In the near fu
