CIIICAQO, Oct. 6. Fear of a shortage of

Ho hisher, but provision were easier, the
-anuaiy prutiueta closing fiom aki ''t'-J
lower. A uetter unuertone prevailed .11 tne
wheat pit auil at tiineii tne market was
quite stiong Vltb. trading of a more active
character than ot lale. Opening prices
were llrm notwithstanding tne lower lor
elgn markets, December being up 1-3.
at Vfi'vw '"'a- rJcalpr were liberal buyer
of December but the May delivery wan
quiet generally neglected. There was Very
little of the nearby options tor Bale, ami
as the session advanced prlci 8 fcrariua lly
went higher until 77;C was reacheu. Mul Isn
crop reports fiom Missouri and Ohio wlch
strengtn In outslue markets were early
bull tactora W'nen Hradatreei's figures
were Issued showing an Increase in the
world's visible supply of over 12,oo0.ij0
bushels, considerable selling developeu,
and the market suffered a decline, De
cember slumping off to 7Gc. During the
lust hour, however, prices agfiln rallied on
a good cash demand for mills for No
2 red and on reports of a big export busi
ness done via the gulf, it being claimed
Wi or 70 boat londs had been sola for Ship
ment bv southwest houses. The close wai
llrm with December tyac higher at Tl'
77"4. Clearances of wheai and Hour weie
equal to Ins, ft 13 bushels. Primary receipts
were 1.5S,0iJ bushels, against 1.771,00 bush
els a year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth
reported receipts of 1,(1X1 cars, which with
local receipts of 113 curs none of contract
grade made total receipts for the three
Klnts of 1,194 cars, against 1,233 cars last
week and 1,45 cars a year ago.
Corn was on the bull tack, and more thin
made up the ground it lost on the previous
session. Buying was of an Influential char
acter, provisions Interests taking the in
itiative on that side of the market. Conn
try offerings were light and there was no
special pressure to sell until toward the
noon hour when the reaction In wheat led
to freer offerings from the local crowd.
Then in bull factors of the session were the
prospects of more favorable weather, bet
ter cash balance and reports from Illinois
of damage by cold. After pelting at 44V'o.
cember closed g fic higher at 445 S
Receipts were 6Gb cars with 12 of
contract grade.
Trading In oats was of a moderate vol
ume, local traders buying early and caus
ing a small advance which was lost later
when wheat declined. Weather was favor
able for the movement. Closing prices were
steady, December being up H at 36To, after
ranging between XiH and 3t Vs. Local re
ceipts were 296 cars.
There "was very little trading In provis
ions and the market was without feature,
firices were fairly steady early due to buy
ng of October lard which was credited to
packers, but as the session advanced prices
eased off on general dullness and on the
lower hog market. The close showed slight
declines, January pork being oft 10c at
112.36; January lard was down 2c a ti.27Vi
and ribs were also off 2V4 at (6.66. Estimated
ceipts fiyr tomorrow: Wheat, So
cars; corn, 266 cars; oats, 136 cars; hogs, 22,

nr. rtw ti.A pnmmnn stock dividend. This
action had not been decided tip to the close
f the market and the depressing innuence
of the suspense, accordingly, was not re
moved. Dealings were the 'smallest for
many weeks and small as they were a
large proportion or tne wnoie wan mwnmi
by the I'nlted States Steel securities, which
were the onlv stocks In which the unner
i.imv nver the dividend action was made
the occasion for speculative price move

to the fact that the financial worm nn.i
been in great doubt over whnt the effect
m-,,i,l Ho nt lha dividend action. Whether
the passing or reduction of the dividend
could result In any further fall in the
price of the company's securities has been
much questioned. The conservation of a
surplus, it is now believed, would have
held the manter price 01 me -. o m r

NEW YORK, Oct. .-The cotton market
opened firm at an advance of 2fi5 points on
better cables than expected and covering
but demand was light and at first showing
a little further gain on some months;
mnrket eam-d off to about yesterday s final
under liquidation and bear pressure. The
receipts tor the day held fair to fall below
last years', however, there was an Idea that
the weekly bureau report at midday would
make a bullish showing and toward noon
the market steadied up on renewed cover
ing and some outside demand, reaching a
basis about for to 8 points net higher at this
level the weekly report was read and proved
more favorable to the croo than haa been
expected and with full estimates for tomor
row receipts at leading points In connection
with further declines In the southern spot
mnrkets the list turned weak again de
clining sharply under heavy selling for
hear accounts. The close was within $ or 4
points of the lowest of the nearby months.
Salea were estimated at 5SO.0O0 bales. Port
receipts for the day footed up 63.232 bales
against 70.&S4 last year and exports amount
ed to about 15,000 bales. The weather map
reflected very favorable temperature over
the belt and the showers reported were
not thought detrimental to the furthering
of the yield.

CATTLE There was a moderate run of
cattle here this morning, which makes the
supply for the two days about 8.0U0 head
smaller han for the same days of last
week. Owing to the moderate offerings and
to the good local demand the market on all
desirable grades of cattle ruled active and
steady to strong.
Packers all eeemed to be anxious for
cornfed steers and as the supply was small,
the same as usual, the market was active
and a little stronger on the better grades.
There were some cattle of pretty good qual
ity on aale, as Is shown by the fact that
as nign as X5.3U ana w.w was paid, snort
fed stuff, of course, did not show much of
any Improvement.
The proportion of cow stuff this morning
to the total receipts was not large and as
a result the market ruled active and steady
to strong all around. The strength was
confined mostly to the better grades, which
were scarce, while the bulk of the offerings
was on the common to medium order.
Bulls, veal calves and stags met with
ready sale at fully steady prices.
The demand for stockers and feedera
from the country was fairly good for a
Monday and as a result speculators took
hold of the fresh arrivals this morning with
considerable confidence. The better grades
and- especially tne good heavy cattle sold
at strong prices. The commoner grades of
the receipts this morning consisted of feed
ers, but still a goon clearance was made.
Western grass beef steers were quite
plentiful, hut the quality of the bulk was
very Inferior. Anything at all desirable
could safely be quoted strong, while the
medium and common cattle held about
steady. Range cows were In good demand
at steady to strong prices and the same
eould be said of stockers and feeder. Rep
resentative sales:

HOG8 There was not an excessive run
of hogs lt. sight this morning, but the
tendency of prices was downward at all
points. Packers started out here bidding
a dime lower on a few hogs and some loads
sold that way, but Chicago soon came 10J
zoo lower and then the market here flat
tened out and kept getting worse until the
close. Sales were made all the way from
10 to 20c lower, but most of them were KKf
15o lower. The heavy hogs suffered the
most and sold from 85.45 to .f. Medium
weights went from $5.56 to $5.60, and lights
sold from $5.60 to $5.70. Toward the close
of the market some medium weights had to
sell down around $5.55 that were pretty
good hogs. It was a very slow draggy
market from start to finish and one which
Is very difficult to operate on successfully.
The extreme close of the market was very
dull and a flat 20c lower than yesterday. At
time of going to press indications were that
a good many would be carried over until
tomorrow In first hands. Representative
sales:

SHEEP Yesterday's sheep receipts over
run the earlier estimates and broke the
record of last Tuesday by a small margin,
there being 31,174 head on sale. The supply
this morning was more moderate, but still
for the two days thU, week there is a slight
Increase over the same days of lust week.
The quality of the offerings this morning
was exceptionally common ana in iact
packers complained that they could not
fet enough good stuff to fill their orders,
t would be safe to quote desirable mutton
grades In active demand and fully steady.
This would apply to good lambs aa well
as to good sheep. The common stuff, ow
ing to the heavy receipts of that class, are
of course, more or less neglected and rather
weak.
The big end of the receipts this morning
had to be classed as feeders and the qual
ity was common at that. The demand was
sufficient to take all the good stuff at
steady prices, but when it came to the In
ferior grades and especially to light and
common lambs the market was slow and a
little lower.
