Wheat closed toilny tit n decline of l',4c. The news wns not especially bearish , biu heavy Iliiultliitloi ) , which has been characteristic of the mar ket for several days past , again forced prices down. All the other market * suf- fcroil from the same case , corn declining He , otita Uo nnd provisions from " ! 4o to t ! 4c. Tlio controlling power In the whpnt trnilo was thoroughly established In command to day. Liquidation , which linn lifon moro or leas prominent for several days past , reached largo proportions during the progress of the session. The news wns of the most part bearish , litlt the market acted as If all that has recently heon heard about deficient crops In the world had all been authoritatively and olllclally contradicted and abundance re-established. Liverpool opened rather weak at % d decline for spot wheat , and unchanged for futures. Hut shortly after the opening here , private cablegrams quoted it Id advance In De cember wheat , resulting In buying und sub- Btantlal advances. Opening prices for De cember were from 7710 to 77ic , ns com pared with yesterday's close of 7S'le. After Belling at 77'4c for nn Instant , the private cables referred to caused an advance to from 77tHi ! to 7c. ! ? Those Liverpool cables were a delusion and a snare , for direct cables showed a di-cllno at Liverpool of Md from the opening , and early buyers HOOII regretted their confidence. North western receipts showed a big falling off from last year's. Minneapolis und Duluth reported K1S cars , as compared with l.CSO cars last year. A local news collecting agency announced that the world's visible supply had Increased 7.SSO.OOO bu. last week. That was a'not Inconsiderable faelor near the opening In starting the selling' , which became so very heavy during the fore noon. Uradslreet's figures on the Visible supply reported a total Increase of C.S.VI.OOO bu. In the world's visible , but the smallness - ness of these Ilgurcs , as compared with the earlier announcement , had little effect. After the advance to 7Sc , there were Ir regular declines until about forty-five" min utes from the close 7G } c had been reached. The- closing was characterized by u little moro llrmncss. December gradually ad vanced to from "G-'Ue to "OTie bid , where It closed. Corn was again dull , and decidedly weak , the Influences being the weakness of wheat and more liberal offering ! ! of new wheat. Liquidation was active all day , and prices were lower from the start. May opened a shade lower at 2SVlc , declined to 27ic and closed easy at 27T4c. - There was a good business transacted In oats. The opening , though lower , was fairly steady , nnd offerings were readily taken. Later , mainly In sympathy with wheat , the market fell off , and liquidation bcciimo free. May started about Vie lower nt from 22'4o to 22c. declined to l'2c , and closed easy at from 22'i < p to 22'ic. ' Provisions were weak from the start , nnd the only feature developed was the general liquidation In all products. The opening was tit a considerable decline , In svmpathy with the weak hog market. Pressure of offerings decreased prices ; closing prices being about the lowest of the day.

CATTLE It was another day of liberal cattle receipts , though there was u fulling oil from yesterday's record of over n thousand bead. The packers were heavy receivers , and after their cattle were taken out barely 2,000 head were loft on saltso that the actual cattle available on the mar ket were not particularly numerous. The market as a whole , viewed from u sellers' standpoint , was In fairly good condition nnd as a rule satisfactory. He-ef steers , both grnstscrs and cornfcd natives , were In good request on the part of local packers and offers generally found ready takers. Desirable grades sold at fully steady prices , the sales showing up as well as yesterday on the same kind of cat tle. Common or half fat cattle , perhaps , wcro not quite so strong , the demand cer tainly was not so brisk on that kind. Hatchers' stock , such as desirable cows and heifers , sold freely and In just about the same notch as yesterday. If th'-rij. was any change In values- was so sugnt as not to be worth quoting. Stackers and feeders were also fully steady and oven strong on desirable kinds. The demand was brisit and there wrro a good many buyers in the yards , their com bined wants being fully equal to or In ex cess of the supply. The cattle Were all sold In good season.

A life insurance policy will do it , and the cost to you is only the annual premium paid to the company. * It is like pay ing a little extra interest on your mortgage to insure its re lease if you die. The resources of the Mutual Life of New York exceed the combined capital of all the na tional banks of New York City , Chicago , Boston , Philadelphia , St. Louis , Cincinnati and Balti more.
