CHICAGO, June 22,—(By The As- sociated Press)—Owing largely to an unexpected advance in wheat quo- tations at Liverpool the wheat mar- ket here took an early upward sewing today. Further reports of black rust in wheat fields in South Dakota were received. There also were ad- vices at hand telling of too much rainfall.in some sections where har- vesting of winter wheat is in prog- ress, especially parts of the south- west and of the Ohio valley. Opening prices %4c to 1%c higher, July $1.54% to $1.64% and September at $1.53 to $1.53% were fallowed by something of a reaction and then bya rise to $1.55% for July and $1.53% for September. Subsequently reports of black rust in Manitoba and Saskatchewan, Can- ada, led to an additional sharp up turn in prices, There were also re- ports of actual damage by black rust,near Amenia, N. D. The close was unsettled 1% to 2c net higher, July $1.55% to $1.55% and ‘Septem- ber $1.54 to 1.54%, Corn. and oats sympathized with wheat strength. Opening unchanged to 1%c higher, September $1.06% to $1.06%, the corn market later ad- vanced all around, September touch- ing $1.07%. Reports of large sales of corn at Omaha to go to the Pacific and other far away sections attracted considerable notice, but profit tak- ing eased the market at the last. The close was steady, at the same as yesterday's finish to %c ‘higher, September $1.0575. Oats started at Yc to Sc gain, September 48%c. Later additional up- turns took place.
