CHICAOO , Sept. W. ISpeclal Telegram to
the UEE.J Tlie market started on slow.
Cudahy bought a little , as did Linn , while
Fleming and Uoyden were buying October
as usual , and for a parenthesis It might bo
well to say they that have been buying a
good deal ot October lately , some of which
has been sold against December. The sellIng -
Ing wns scattered. George C.-Wlker's ilrm
iteams to be one of the freest sellers ot De
cember , but the figures-OS for October ,
were too low down to Induce much new sell
ing , so the buyers prove more numerous than
sellers , and Instead of going to pieces , as the
bears predicted It would on the lar o Increase
In tliu visible , It steadied up , advancing
fractionally with a fair volume of trade. A
little farther on , with receipts large at Min
neapolis and a large Increase In New
York's stock , offerings carried the market
back to C8Y ; , but It did not
stay there long and a new
element of strength commenced showing
Itself In the fact that the visible supply
figures began to surprise all parties by falling
to carry out the anticipated large increase
and finally developed a decrease of 159,000
bushels and October advanced to 68c , ruliue
quite firm. Cables were lower , but did .not
attract much attention. The decrease In the
1 visible supply overshadowed any other news ,
and the market strengthened from baying
on that account and closed at C8JJ@G9c ( for
October , 70o for November , 71o for De
cember and 77o for May. Freight rates by
railways were restored to tariff rates and
were hard as a rock. This means a lUc ad
vance in them from the recent cut rates.
Corn was full of the contradiction that it
was going to nothing on big receipts and the
large local deliveries made Saturday , bnt the
friends addicted to the short side and con
fident of success to-day , were discouraged to
llnd a shipment of 750,000 bushels posted on
the blackboard , and after hammering the
market a while at thoopenlnir. thought better
of it. covered what shorts they could
and with a little help from outside snorts in
the same direction , October reacted from
4UXcto41Vc. The fact that a line of cash
corn of nearly or quite a million bushels has
been held Intact and kept oil of the market
for several months has been a mystifying
thine and shippers worked under a disad
vantage from It , it being hard to get hold of
the receipts for the concentrating and easy
loading ot cargoes Saturday. This corn was
delivered out on October contracts , having
been sold for October lately around G2Xc to
lower prices , and It was expected this was
going to demoralize the market , but the ship
ping demand constantly outlined in this
paper was not only equal to It but absorbed
It and shipped it , and cried for more , but it
filled lots of orders for New England and
Canadian points and may result In a llttlo
slacker demand for a few days , thus holding
the market down , unless some incentleo like
smaller receipts should counteract its in-
lluence. ' 1 hero was a fair trade throughout
the session without much change- values ,
and a disposition was shown to make pur
chases. The principal trade was In May ,
which closed at 44Xc and October at 41c.
Ityo Is receiving motu than usual attention ,
and an advance ot ac per bushel has been ob
tained for the past week or 47c for No. 2
cash and 48c for October.
Uarley Is developing quite a corner for
September , ana on the light quantity buyers
have found it easy to name the rates and
now the prlco for this month Is about lOc
above No. 1 , and no cram coming to ( ill con
tracts. No. a cash sold at 76c , while seller
October was hardly up to COc.
Seeds are receiving more attention and
dealers In tlmotliy and flax are doing a larger
business than in all the smaller grain markets -
, kets as to quantity sold and value. Timothy
was broken off to 2.223.33 for prime cash
and tlax has steadily declined Oc per bushel
within a week , or to < l.oiK : for No. 1 cash or
seller October to-day , while clover has been
slow all fall and is now down to 54.10(34.15 (
for prime.
In provisions the week opened with a
strong market. Lighter receipts of hogs
than the trade anticipated developed a some
what bullish feeling and better prices were
the rule. Based on Saturday's closing , pork
for year delivery was advanced lOc and for
January ISc , lard for all deliveries Sc. short
ribs for September and October 15i and
Januarj 7 > c , September and October SOc
and January 7Kc. The upward turn in Sep
tember and October short ribs , which were
bought freely by the controlling house , was
the principal feature of the day. The Jan
uary product was regarded with consider
able favor In the speculation witnessed ,
which was only moderate for January. Pork
sold at $12.80(412. : , lard at 80.87K@ .40 and
short ribs at S0.25@0.27 , closing all around at

Cattle.
Tito run of cattle was unusually heavy , 274
cars having been received slum the clnsu of
the market Saturday night. There were ten
or twelve loads of corn-fed natives and nlso
a few loads of corn-fed westerns , but aside
from them the receipts were made un almost
entirely of range cattle. Corn-fed steers
were In fair request and nbout everything of
that description changed hands. A few
range and a few Texas cattle were sold to the
packers , but the number sold was vcrv small
compared with the otTcrlnus. On account of
the heavy run here nnd at eastern points the
feeling was weak and the market about lOc
lower.
Hopa.
The receipts of hogs were very light , even
for Monday. There were only six or seven
fresh loads on the market and four stale
loads. The market opened very slow nnd
only three loads wore sold In thii morning.
Just before mld-dav the buyers received their
orders nnd the remaining loads were taken.
The market was strong nt about Saturday's
prices.
Klicrp.
There were no fresh receipts and nothing
doing on the market.
