CHICAOO , Sept. 20. Strong outsldo cash
markets and light northwest receipts were
factors In a sharp advance In wheat tdoay.
December closed IHc higher and September
lic higher. Corn and oatu were both
favorably affected by wheat nnd advanced
bbout 'Ac ' each. Provisions were weak early ,
but turned strong and closed at slight ad
vances all around.
A surprise was given traders In who.it
at the outset by the big dropping off In re
ceipts in the northwest , Minneapolis and
Dututh reporting but. S20 cars compared
with 1,093 yesterday und 1,921 n year ago.
To add to the natural bearish effect of thetv ;
figures , Liverpool cables were firm und
higher and tlicro was qulto n good demand
to cover foreign acceptances. December
started with plenty of business at G2Vii ®
C2c against yesterday's closing prlco cl
C2Uc and Inside of halt an hour the demand
had advanced the price to G2u. Septem
ber , In the meantime , showed even
moro ( strength than the later du-
llvery , opening UG'.ic hlcher at C5Uc
nnd advanced to l5 ! ic. At G2Tic for De
cember the advance waa checked. That
prlco was cloi-e to "call" figures and quite
a good deal of Helling by holders of those
privileges ensued , resulting In a slight 10-
DCtlon. A period ot dullness ensued wlli
prices varying but little until about noon ,
when the Atlantic port clearance figures
were posted , showing the surprisingly large
total of 077,000 bushels , of which Now York
contributed GOG.OOO bushels. As yesterday' *
visible supply statement gave stocks at New
York at only 18S.OOO bushels , today's bis
{ shipments were entirely unlocked for anil
us a buying flurry ensued Immediately De
cember advanced to C3c and September tc
GGlic , with the demand quite general. Brad-
etreet's figures on the world's visible sup
ply , showing an Increase of 3.G92.000 bushels ,
encouraged sellers again and caused price ?
to drop a little , December getting back tc
62 0 , but near the close the strength shown
by outsldo markets , especially for the casli
article , started buying again and th ? markel
from that tlmo on ruled very firm. Decem
ber was finally bid up to G3SC3Vjc am !
closed at GSTJC. September advanced U
G6c and cloyed at CG'Jc.
Corn was very slow , but strong , the mair
Influence being the strength ot wheat. Ca
bles wore firm nnd foreign houses took c
good many scatteied lots. Clearances wcr <
liberal , 301,000 bushels. Receipts were 911
cars. December ranged from 29 40 to 29Vi <
nnd closed He higher at 29ic.
The market for oats wa almost al
a standstill. Only a small scalp
ing buhlnoHs was don nnd price :
until late In the session ( showed scarcelj
uny variation. Trading became more acttv <
late In the session In nympathy with wheat
nnd prlci-s advanced some , the market clog.
Ing firm at the top. May ranged from 22'ii <
to 22V8e and closed at 22lS22",4c. "
Provisions started weak. Hog receipt !
were liberal and there were the usual yel'
low fever reports. The colling pressure wai
not heavy , however , and moderate buyl'if
by packers caused prices to harden later
Trade nt no tlmo was very largo. December
bor pork closed 2VjC higher at JS.27V4 ; Uo
comber lard , 2',4c higher at $4.771,4 ; Jan
uary ribs , 2V4c higher at $4.70
Estimated receipts for Wednesday : Wheat
17G cars ; corn , 450 cars ; oats , 2GO cars ; hogs

NEW YORK , Sept. 20.-Thc stock market
today presented all the characteristics of
genuine reaction. Last week's sharp re
covery eliminated the short Interests very
largely nnd the forced liquidation of profits
had been mostly completed during the pre
vious continued decline. The market was
thus freed to a general extent from tech
nical Influences and In condition to respond
tn the prospects for General business In the
country. lt failure to do so yesterday was
attributed to unsettling Influence ot the
slump ir. Sugar. The ucars were evidently
timid about continuing their campaign
further against Sugar nnd were Inclined
to cover , so that this Influence toward re
action wns removed. Nevertheless , the
market drooped heavily toward a lower
basis with one or two exceptions In the
list and closed only barely steady at u
level generally 1 per cent or more btlow
last nluhfs level. The action of the mar
ket was not different in character from
that which prevails at a tlmo when the
business outlook presents general dlncour-
UKument , contraction of activity and de
clining profits. The demand for stocks was
very small all day und prices went down
easily under comparatively light offerings.
A\onkness was particularly manifest In To
bacco , the Grangers and Pacifies.
The action of these stocks Indicated the
liquidation of a heavy Individual specula
tion on the long side. 'The sharpest brtitk
In the market was coincident of the mark-
Ine ; up of call loans to 6 per cent. This
flurry In the money market was disap
pointment to bull operators , especially in
view of the engagement of over J2OUOOOQ
In gold for Import nnd the mailing from
the Treasury department yesterday ot
checks for Interest on registered 4 per cent
bonds duo October 1 , amounting to J4.910-
000 , which are payable Immediately. Thn
HUbtrensury's debit balance at the clearing
house also ran up today to J1.261.45S , re
flecting a large Increase in government ex
penditures. The sluggishness of the gold
movement Is bomewlmt remarkable In luce
of conditions. Call money in London la
' , < per cent ngnlnst G per cent here today.
London discount Is 1 % per cent to 1 7-S ,
against 4 per cent hero Last month's trade
balance In this country's favor was J35.0UO-
WAI on top of the favorable balance for ev
ery month In the preceding year. In addi
tion , London has recently bought securities
. In this nrjricet. It Is a fact that part of
1 today s gold cnguKements was made by
bullion dealers here who are shipping silver
In response to the existing active demand
attributed to Spanish account. There la
not sufficient demand for the exchange
against the silver shipment to make u
market and there Is a better profit In Im
porting gold. Exchange Is thus clearlv
demonstrated to bo at the gold Import
point and the. question arises , What has
been done with the country's credits abroad
that they do not bring a larger gold move
ment ? The Immediate future or the local
money market is , however , clearly toward
ureater case.
Dealings In bonds were not nn a large
scale today and prices were toward a lower
level. Total sales , J1S10,000. tJnlud fctaiet
4s , old and new , were U lower In the bid
prlco today.
The Evening Post's London financial
cablegram says : The stock market here
opened steady today , but closed generally
dull on the unexpectedly large elllux ( if
gold from the Bank of England. Americans
were good at one tlmo on German orders
to buy Erie , Union Paclllc and Northern
Pacific common. A small feature Is the
I revival of speculation In nitrate shares ,
Spanish 4s were llrm on Parlsi buying , and
I Spanish exchanse on London fell sharply
to 39.SO , ngalnst 40.88 nt the opening ol
the month. I have Information from an
excellent quarter that negotiation by the
Hong Kong bank and Chinese cortrnmenl
for railway loans are proceeding most sat
isfactorily for British Interests. Consols
were lower today on the gold movement
and on an unconfirmed report that th (
Bank of England Is seeking to get con
trol of the money market by borrowing
on consols. This point , If true , would b'
most Important , but I cannot express r
definite opinion nt the time of cabling. The
total efflux of gold from the bank today
wns 742,00f , which , the official stntemfnl
'
says , Included .C397.000 In bar gold am'
215.000 In United States coin. All Is sale
to bo going to New York , but I have rfn-
son to believe that a portion of the bai
no'd ' has none to Germany.

CATTLE The receipts of cattle were
large , as win bo noted from the table ot re
ceipts above , but the most of them were
feeders , so that packers did not have a very
wldo selection. The fact , however , that of
ferings ot beef cattle were light was the
making of the market , as early advices from
other selling points all Indicated alow and
\\eak markets. The demand hero was ot
such large proportions , while the available
beef steers were In such small supply , that
there was a livery scramble among buyers
to secure as many loads as possible. The
result ) \\as that corn fed steers sold at prices
that were generally stronger than yesterday ,
good cattle bringing J5.00QC.40. It did not
take very long for buyers to clear the pens
and the thirty loads ou sale were all dis
posed of early In the morning. The demand
for western grass beef cactlo was also
and the market strong.
Cows and heifers wcro In good demand
and the market active nnd steady. Every
thing offered met with ready sale at very
satisfactory prices.
There were a good many feeders In the
yards this morning and t'ho country demand
did not appear to bo especially vigorous , but
regular yard dealers appeared to anticipate
a largo buying demand , as they all seemed
to want good cattle , nnd the market on the
best kinds of feeders was stronger in addi
tion to being active. The common and me
dium kinds did not show any Improvement ,
but on the other hand were Just as they
have been on most days of late , that Is ,
rather slow and scicky. Representative

HOGS Today's receipts ot hess wcro con
siderably larger than a week ago. and about
the same ns l\\o weeks ago , RO that It wan
a good fair run for the second day of the
week. The market opened slow nnd weak
under the Influence of very unfavorable re
ports from other markets. Buyers , how
ever , wanted the IIOKS , and the decline hero
amounted to only 2M,05c. , The market was
active at the decllno when the trade
was once under way anil the hogs
were all sold early In the morning. The re
ports from other market points all indi
cated n much larger Break In values. Ono
of the largest packers In Chicago wired that
they bought a drove lOc lower than yester
day.
day.Tho
The hogs sold hero at J3.G5@3.SO , the long
string at $3.70. Yesterday the range wns
J3.703.SO. with the bulk of the sales at
J3.72'i < ff3.7r > . It will be observed thai ) the
top for the two days Is the same , two good
light loads going at J3.80. For a while back
heavy and light hogs , If prime , sold In the
same notch , but just nt present t'here Is a
premium on choice light. Today's decllno
wipes out a portion of yesterday's gain , but
leaves the market stilt a llttlo better than
It was at the close of last week , as will bo
noted from the tnblo of average prices at
head of crflutnn. Representative sales :
SHEEP The receipts were considerably
smaller than yesterday , but at the same
tlmo there was a fair showing of muttons ,
both sheep and lambs , and a very light
sprinkling of Htockers and fe-eders. The mar
ket us a whole was In a very satisfactory
condition as regards the selling Interests.
Packers appeared to want the sheep and
the trade might bo summed up as n good
steady and active market. Most everything
sold in good season. There nothing In the
way of news to be said about the feeder
market. As was noted yesterday the demand
for that kind of stuff Is good right along
and fully equal to or In excess of the supply.
