The Argentine situation is being regarded aa very serious and was in a large measure the cause of the present advance, Light rains were reported in some of the Argentine districts, but in the places where raln was badly needed the weather has continued dry, The amount of wheat estimated for ex- port is much less than any previous esti- mates and Broomhall reports an increased BEuropean demand. The local Interest in corn was not very active, but the market was fairly strong during the early part of the sesslon, ‘The trade in oats was very slow, Decem- ber opening at 47c and May at 48%ec.

Scarcity of Offerings Causes Wheat to Go to High Mark of Season, Chicago, Sept. 20.—After wheat In some cases today had touched the highest prices this season, heavy profit-taking by holders led to a decided setback. The chief bullish Influence continued to be the lack of raln In Argentina. Closing prices here, how- ever, were weak, §¢ (o 1c net lower, with December at $1.64% and May at $1.53%. Corn finished Xo off to %o up, oats at Ko decline to ¢ advance, and provisions unchanged to 26c down. Throughout most of the sesslon wheat showed unmistakable strength. Indeed until the last thirty minutes of trading quota- tions were well above yesterday's finish. The contin drouth in Argentina had flurried the shorts, espocially In rogard to the Septembs delivery. B , gossip was current that forelgners were purchasing futures here, influenced apparently by the pessimistic crop outlook In Argentina and by the difficuity of obtaining supplies from India or Australla. Another bullish factor was a statement by a trading authority that in less than thres months the United States already had shipped nearly half of the yoar's export surplus, Prominent speculators who for some time have been conspicuous on the buying side of wheat were the chief sellers after the September option had ascended to $1.57%, a new high record for 1916. Aside from |the lberal profit-taking by holders, there |seemed to be no development te account for the late weakness. In the end, how- ever, the selling attained such volume that in & Mteral sense the pit scemed to be full of wheat. Corn largely paralleled the action of wheat. Unfavorable crop news from Ar- gontina was virtually offset by heavy selling on the part of owners here, Oats merely roflected on a small scale the course of other cereals, Trading was not especlally wotive at any time Provislons averaged lower with hogs.
