GRAIN VALUES CLOSE HIGHER Increase in Export Demand Causes Upturns. CHICAGO, Aug 13.—Increase of export demand for wheat and other bullish factois caused grain prices to advance on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Trading was dull at the opening and after starting out steady most quotations eased off. Later, however, when seaboard buyers began getting into the market prices advanced. Oats was fairly weak, due to heavy receipts Provisions were higher. September wheat opened at $1.23%, unchanged and closed up %c. December wheat opened unchanged at $1.24% and closed up %c. September corn opened off %e at 56%c and closed up %c. December corn opened off %c at 55c and closed up %c. September oats opened unchanged at 36c and closed off %c. December oats opened unchanged nr 39%c and closed up %c. (By Thoms* n & McKinnon.) —Aug. 13— Wffeat—There was but limited action in the grain market today. Chicago's wheat shipments this week totaled 4.600,000 bushels and sixteen vessels are booked to load wheat next week. Canadian and Northwest were not so favorable. There has been too much, rain and some light fro*ts. Premiums for cash wheat were strong, with gulf bids up another cent today, being 13c over Chicago September price for gulf ports Minneapolis was again a wheat west. The quietness of speculation is giving cash interests a 6plended oppur tuulty to consummate large export business in all grains and, later, huge clearances and smaller receipts will possibly give the market the proper tonic to Induce an Improvement in values that is due. Coarse Grains—The market was lower with very favorable weather and good receipts. Country offerings of corn were considered liberal, while oat offering? were slight. Lack of speculation demand, however, was strongly tn evidence. Provisions—Higher hogs again gave stability to this market. It is reported that good export sales were put through on the recent break. There is quite an increase in the Southern trade for the cheaper class of product. CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE —Aug 13— WHEATOpen. High. Lo.r ( lose.
