CHICAGO , Sept. 26. The expected de
crease In the visible supply nnd rumors of
Jurso seaboard engagements turned a weak
wheat market today Into a decidedly
strong one. December closed at Uc advance
after Belling C-Sc below Saturday's closing
llgures. Corn was helped by wheat and
largo export Bales and closed Uf/3-Sc /
higher. Oats closed a shade higher. Provisions -
visions advanced Hharply on good packing
uupport , pork closing 13c higher , and lard
und ribs 7'ic ' higher.
Wheat showed considerable weakness at
the start. Jioth foreign and domestic news
WHS of u bearish nature. Liverpool showed
SiMl 1-SU declines and I'arls was off 15
centimes. Receipts here were 31 ? cars , of
which 33 cars were of contract grade. Be
sides this about 200,000 bushels contract
wheat was received by lake and out of
private houses. Minneapolis and Duluth re
ported 1.CC3 cars against 1,993 cnrs last
week and 1.427 a year ago. Ileforo the mar
ket had fairly Blurted , weakness began to
develop In cash wheat In the northwest
which had Its effect hero. Opening trades
In December were made nt 03 l-Sft63 > ic ,
compared with Saturday's closing priceof
K35-SC. The market touched U3 3-8c for u
moment , but selling pressure was too
much for the very moderate1 demand and
prices slowly sagged off. For the llrst
Iiour or so nothing occurred to check tht
boarlshness except an Indication that the
visible supply statement might show a de
crease Instead of showing 1,000.000 bushels
Increase us expected. Liquidation became
less urgent after that and the market ral
lied to fi3',4c. ' No moro fluctuations of note
occurred until after the visible supply
Htatcmcnt came out. This was a surprise ,
showing a decrease of SSO.OOO bushels and
an Instant change. In the. tone of the mar
ket was noticed. Professional shorts and
early Kellers rushed for cover and found
considerabledllllctilty In satisfying their
demands. Another feature In the strength
was rumors of heavy export engagements
and the statement that 1UO loads had been
llsposcel of Saturday night and today.
These figures were disputed by shippers ,
but had their effect nevertheless. J'rimary
receipts amounted to 1,732,000 bushels.
Amount on ocean passage Increased 2,180-
000 bushels. The market became very
strong toward the close , trading Increas
ing greatly In volume nnd an Increase In
prices took place. December advanced to
Id 1-Sc and closed at that price.
Corn was strong until near the close ,
when It developed considerable strength.
Receipts were Cut cnrs. Estimates for to
morrow were heavy. This nnd the early
weakness of wheat made corn rather
weak lit llrst. Demand Improved when the
fraboard reported nil excellent foreign de-
maiyl with fair sales. The visible Increase
wan small. Cables were lower. Country
offerings were moderate. December ranged
from 2 7-85T30e to 29tSiJ)29 ; ) 5-Sc nnd closed
' .ic higher at 297-Sft30c.
Oats were dull and uninteresting till
near the close , when In sympathy with
wheat and corn , the market became fairly
lie-five and llrm. A feature was the- good
demand for September from shorts. Re-
fdpts were 491 cars. The visible Increased
fBO.OOO bushels. May ranged from ± ! } | Q >
" 27-So to 226-Se and closed a shade higher
at 22if227-Sc.
Provisions were fairly active. Yellow
fever news and liberal hog receipts was n
- iue for weakness at the opening and
lower prices prevailed for some time. The
demand from packers and shorts became
fairly heavy later and offerings falling oft
prices advanced rapidly. At this close Jan
uary pork was l ! > c higher nt J9.27H. Jnnii-
n. y lard I've higher at J5.C0 , and January
ribs 7'fec higher at * t.S004.82Vi.
Estimated receipts for Tuesday : Wheat ,
MO cars ; corn , 1,025 cars ; oats , COO cars ;

AcOon of Mnrket nt Opening I * Dl -
leppolntlnK to tinllulln. .
NEW YORK , Sept. M.-Tho action of to
day's market at the opening was disap
pointing to the bulls and stocks purchased
Saturday on the favorable bunk statement
were speedily let GO nnd commitments made
for the short account.
The higher range of London prices en
couraged bulls and efforts were made to
advance prices to u parity with the London
figures. The rises In the foreign market In
Union Pacific showed that the forelgnern
were becoming reconciled to the dividend
notion. Opening prices hero were somewhat
mixed , but the hesitation was soon suc
ceeded by n general plunge downward
under the guidance of the specialties. Stop
loirs orders were uncovered In the lenders
anel the market for a tlnve was nt the mercy
of the dealers who searched ellllgcntly for
weak spots. Prices for Tobacco , People's
Gns and Brooklyn Transit melted away rapIdly -
Idly , but Sugar nftcr a dip downward of a
point encountered supporting orders and
ruled above Saturday's close for the re
mainder of the day. The railways mean
while fell sympathetically , but the leases
were confined to fractions and after the
first rush to sell had abated settled down tea
a level slightly above the lowest nnd re
sisted subsequent efforts at depression.
The firmness was- accounted for by the pub
lication of numerous trnfllc statements cov
ering a wide area of territory and showing
substantial Increases. The gains' In some
of the southern Illicit were especially gratify
ing In view of the slow movement of cot
ton nnd quarantine1 regulations In some FCC-
tlons. These conditions were responsible
for the marked decreases reported by the
southwestern group. Arbitrage houpes had
purchasing orders , but the action of the
market discourage * ! any extensive ventures
and only a light sprinkling of various stocks
was taken. The elimination of nn active
speculative Interest from the market owing
to the rigid observance of the Hebrew holi
day , Yom Klppur , reduced business con
siderably and the raid on Tobacco ulso
chilled the outside demand. The decline In
Tobacco was attributed principally to a de
nial of officials of the Drummoml that the
concern had been absorbed by the Ameri
can Tobacco company. The bears attacked
the stock with considerable confidence and
drove It down 8 5-S per cent to 139U , Con
siderable amounts of stock were llejuldateil
and the apparent willingness of the Insid
ers to see the ) prices lower Invited extensive
selling by the shorts. In the last hour the
stock moved upward with the general mar
ket to 41 7-S. Sugar moved up to 123 and the
railways , which had moved Inelependently
of Tobncoo throughout the day , ruled the
best. In the final dealings Tobacco slumped
badly and touched 139. The other Indus
trials also suffered from realizations , but no
appreciable declines were recorded In the
standard stocks. The > market left off un
settled , with slltrht losses generally. Call
money rates stiffened sharply later In the

CATTLE The week opened with a good
run of cattle. A very large proportion of
them wtro feeders , but there was also n
liberal showing of beef. Considering the
liberal run and the further feet that Chicago
nnd Kansas City were reporting lower mar
kets the trade here as a whole was In very
fair condition , the movement being reason
ably active and values not changed very
much.
There were about a dozen loads of corn-
fed steers , the best of which sold at fully
steady prices , as high as $5.30 being paid
for some. Buyers were reporting about six
teen loads of westerns and about double
the number of Texans good enough for kill
ers. While desirable kinds of killing cattle
were steady , with the run as large as It
was and with eastern markets lower. It
was ouly natural that buyers should dis
criminate rather closely and the holders of
cattle that did not just happen to please
buyers reported the market a little easier.
There were twenty to twenty-live loads
of cows and heifers In the yards and the
market on that kind of cattle was fully
steady , In fact buyers were reporting It as
very strong and active. Feeders were buy
ing the thin stuff , so that there was a
good demand for all kinds and the offerings
were soon cleaned up. Some good corn-fed
heifers sold at $4.65 nnd J4.85 , showing
what really good stuff would bring.
Desirable kinds of stockers and feeders
were fully steady and the demand good with
the market active. Most everything of that
description sold early. With BO many good
cattle buyers were a little slow about tak
ing the common kinds , and the market on
such would have to be auoted as weak and
dull. Representative sales :

HO(1S Receipts of hogs were the largest
for a Monday this month , though there wore
only a few over forty loads In the yards.
The market was decidedly against the jellIng -
Ing Interests , owing to the reports of lower
eastern markets. Early advices from Chicago
cage Indicated a Blow market at a decline
of do and Kansas City also came lower. The
result \\ns that the market hero opened 6c
lower than the low time on Saturday , but
moro than 5c lower than the best time Sat
urday. A few very gooel lends sold up to
J3.75 , whllo on Saturday there were several
lends at f3,12',2iT3.35. The buyers wanted
good mixed loads at J3.70 , and It was dim-
cult to Induce them to pay any moro for
anything. Sellers did not feel like making
the concession , anel the traitc was slow anel
drnggy.
The market clofcel weak nt the d ; ltne.
rough loads selling at J3.C5. Today's de
cline wiped out a good share of the ad
vance made on Friday and puts the market
where It was the middle of last week. The
hogs did not sell qulto EC.ell today , as
they did at the opening of lost week. Rep
resentative sales :
SHEEP After making allowances for
feeders and such sheep as were hardly good
enough for the packers there were only
about thirteen loads of fat sheep on sale.
That was hardly enough to go around ,
among all the packers , and as they all
wanted some the result was n very active
market at an advance of 10(8 ( > 15c. Anything
that killers wanted was soon disposed of
and the market was most satisfactory to the
sellers. As usual there were a good many
buyers on hand who wanted stockers and
feeders , nnd It was no trouble to dispose
of nil that were to bo hod at good strong
prices.
