Show GRAINS WKE IN the CHicra Market CHICAGO, Aug. 30. All gTains advanced ad-vanced today, liberal buying In. anticipation antici-pation of the two-day holiday Sunday and Monday (Labor day) creating a strong and active market. Cora, the most active of the grain pits, made a net gain of ic to fi3c; wheat rose iic to i?c, and oats finished with an upturn of gfi?lc to gc; provisions closed Irregular, Irregu-lar, 12515c lower to 15c advance. In addition to buying of corn by shorts, the market was strengthened by higher cables, by estimates that the year's crop would show a shortage of 4SS.000.000 bushels as compared with last year's output, out-put, and by the fact that offerings were comparatively limited. September quickly quick-ly advanced to 73c and December to 69c. Both options showed firmness and, except ex-cept for a few small reactions, following follow-ing profit-taking sales, values hold up finely all day, closing at or very near the top. Firmness of cash corn also helped futures. Some experts predicted that corn prices next winter and spring will break all records. Wheat was helped by firmness of corn after a rather easy opening on weaker cables and forecast for good weather. A feature of wheat trading was changing of large holdings of September to De-comber. De-comber. This helped support prices for the deferred months and yet it did not materially depress the near option, as there was renewed talk of considerable export business in prospect. Primary arrivals ar-rivals of wheat are beginning to show the effect of decreased sales by farmers, who are holding for better prices, Oats were helped by firmness of other grain, but trade was not large. Provisions were dull and lower except In pork, which scored a 15c advance In the September delivery on heavy covering cover-ing by shorts. RANGE OF THE LCADING FUTURES. Wheat Opon. High. Low.
