CHICAGO , Oct. 2.9Specinl Telegram to
the IKK. ] The first Impulse of the wheat
timrkot thl morning was slightly upward
nnd there was plenty of business , but the
promise of the first hour was not fulfilled
mid the greater part of the session saw a dull
and spiritless market , with prices dropping
( fulte steadily , the prlneal cause therefor beIng -
Ing the usual Saturday "ovcnlng-up" pro
cess on the port of local traders , coupled
with n dearth of business from the outside.
The o ) > cnfiig was a little below the closing
prices of yesterday afternoon , with Decem
ber at 73Jfc nnd May nt 79 > c. Early trading
was In quite largo volume , with buying
largely concentrated In a fuw houses , among
which exporters were protnlneuts , although
the biggest blocks were taken by local specu
lators. Tlio Belling was scattered and much
of it by smaller room traders , who wcro dls-
lioslng of long wheat In quantities that were
not largo for each Individual , but wcro con
Rldorablo in the aggregate. From the open
Ing wheat sold up to 7lJ ! < c for December auij
to 71 X@79J c for May , then gradually de
clined to 78 , ' @ 73Jc for Daccmhof , which
closed t that figure , nnd to 79o for May ,
Which closed at 7li@7U > c.
Com traders had a very quiet day , with
comparatively small business , slight fluctua
tlons and but little news affecting the mar
ket. The tcmo was rather weak , but with
only Jfc decline for December , j < @Kc ?
May nnd j o for November , the last
named delivery suffering the most on account
uf the free selling of Hutchinson and Baker.
Foreign news was unfavorable , but was not
much talked about and could hardly bo said
to have any Influence on the market. The
trading was chiolly local. Shipments of corn
from Chicago were 847,000 bushels and vessel
room was taken to-day for 183,000 bushels.
Receipts continue rather light , 277 cars being
the arrivals to-day and 275 cars being the es
timate for Monday. Reports received here
by commission men would Indicate that this
market will not bo Hooded with corn from
Nebraska , at least , shippers in that state
llndlng It morn profitable to send their corn
to Kansas. Buyers from parts of Kansas
where a good crop was anticipated are said
to bo buying in Nebraska and Kansas cattle
nro being sent to Nebraska to feed. Novem
ber corn opened attljfc , sold down to 4l ! c ,
and closed ut4lU@41u. December opened
ut 41 } u , sold down to 41 ! c and closed there.
May opened at 45K < i4."iVo ; sold nt 45c , and
45W45&C nnd closed at 4r > J < c.
In the oats mrket it wa.s the same old
story over again of high speculation and
little or no fluctuation in prices. Trrding in
May , the leading future was at 29sC ? at the
oponlng and at 29)4@29Xo ) on the split , with
iiOXc the market at the close. October was
quotable at 25o early off to 25-fo } and De
cember was salable at i5j ! o , which was a
shade stronger.
Provisions suffered something of n re
action , the shorts having been driven to
cover on yesterday's sharp and unexpected
advance. The market sadly missed sustain
ing support and with professional speculators
Hellers sank under the weight of offerings.
Trading opened at prices only a little under
last night's closing prices , but the receding
movement hot in early and continued up to
the very close , when the lowest prices of the
day were established. The actual decline
suffered was IBe , on October lard , lOc on De
cember and January lard nnd October nnd
January short ribs , 7 o on November nnd
May lard and 22) o on January pork. Jan
uary , which was the leading speculative
month , sold from ? 12.W ( < early down to
$12.40 , lard from $0.40 down to $ fl.20 nnd
short ribs from J.4l(2 ) ( < i.42 > on the split
down to $0.30. For this month the closings

ceipts consisted of rangers and tcxans.
There was not n suflluient number of natives
among the offerings to make a market and

the Br.K.1 STOCKS The stock market the
past week has been dull with a decidedly
f vacillating character and fluctuations cover
ing a wldo range. It has , however , been
mainly a professional market , with the bulls
and bears about evenly matched. Both side :
at times had their innings. The bears hue
the last innings , but failed to secure matcrla' '
declines. The best stocks have been fulrlj
well supported , while the non-dividends ant
riff-raffs wcro used as a club to hammer tin
good ones. The bears sold . freely and tin
short interest is placed at 150,000 shares
The appointment of a receiver for the Chosu
peako i Ohio and the rumors that the Mis
ftouri , Kansas Si Texas and other weak road !
' wcro about to follow , were the chief depress
Ing factors. Tbo latter 1 * leased to the Mis
sonri Pacific , which I obliged to pay * U In
terest charges. Jay Gould , iaaaa Interflow ,
nays the attack on the Missouri , Kansas tc
Texas property the other day was 'wholly
unjustifiable. The company has no floating
debt and it has money enough In the treasury
now to pay nil its approaching interest
charges. The loss on the price of the stock
is duo , of course , to the Atchlson pcopla nnd
the St. Louis & San Francisco company par
alleling some of the Missouri , Kansas &
Texas lines by building through the Indian
territory. The market to-day opened weak
and nervous. London quotations came in

ing , Northwestern , Lake Shore , Missouri
Pacific and Union Pacific were offered freely
by the bear leaders and they weakened frac
tionally. The bank statement was a favor
able ono , showing an Increase in the reserve
of $3,593,950. This had n stimulating effect ,
the buying increased , a short rally followed ,
and out of thirty-eight stocks , twenty-one

Hum Corn or Freeze.
There is n great scarcity of coal in the
western portion of Nebraska where con
sumers depend upon Wyoming and Colorado
for their supply. The Union Pacific , on
account of its increased business , has not
boon able to furnish either the coal or the
cars to haul it. At some points of output , as
at Carbon , Wyo. , the company has been using
every ton of coal that could bo got out , this
creating a shortage which the consumers nro
beginning to feel quite seriously. It begins
to look as if someone would have to burn
corn or go without n lire this winter.
