CHICAGO, Feb. 10. Difficulties of Setting wheat from the producers had a good deal to do today with bringing about a sharp advance in prices. The market closed strong, 3c to 5 He net higher, with March, at to $1.67 and May at $1.55 to $1.66. Corn gained c-to -1 14 -Oats were H4o lower.

The outcome In provisions was 6e to 15o lower. Bulls in the wheat market made many converts to an assumption that from this time forward the chief factor in establishing values would be domestic lnsteady of export conditions. It was especially pointed out that Wstftes the evident mvwtrrlngnesr which grower displayed toward selling at current prices, the majority of country roads were in such bad shape from soft weather that a free movement of grain at present was out of the question. Moreover, the greenbug pent, a danger- to crops, was noted today in Missouri and Oklahoma, as well as in Texas. Announcement of large export sales of flour, with a prospect of more, added somewhat to the strength of the market during; the last part of the session.

Corn and oats reflected the wheat bulge, and were also influenced-hy ex port- business in corn and by predictions of continued unseasonable weather. Provisions were inclined to weakness, owing to sympathy with downturns which at times took place in the hog market. CJaslrdtiotatlona. Wheat No. 2 hard, S1.77; No.
