CHICAGO. Sept. 29.-A break of 3'Jo ' took
place In September wheat today. The
wcakncs * In the cash article affected fu
tures , December closing nt lo decline.
Weak outsldo cash markets , heavy primary
receipts nnd reselling of wheat here by
New York all counted against the price ,
f.'orn declined 3-SQ c nnd oats U573-8c.
Provisions were weak early , but closed
eteudy nt small ndvnnccs
The opening In wheat rather Indicated a
tiull market , although It was dlllluult to
llnd any explanation of the apparent de
cline among traders beyond the fact that
Ijlvcrpool did not show the decllno nut-
wrully looked for after yesterday's break
liero. Thcro were numerous fair-sized buy
ing orders nt the start , with a scarcity of
offerings , the result being that December
opened nt C3iG63 7-Sc , yesterday's closing
jirlce , with 6lo offered almost immediately.
Hut the tone of the market soon changed.
Northwest receipts were liberal. Minneap
olis und Duluth reuortlng 1,190 cnrs , com-
liared with 931 last week nnd 1,019 a year
tigo. Chicago receipts were 29S car. * , con
siderably overrunning estimates. Of this
Jimnber nineteen were of contract grade.
Itecclvers said the Country was responding
moro readily to bids and Indications fa
vored a freer movement of wheat. This
nort of news weakened the confidence of
buyers and resulted In a corresponding In-
rrcaso of prices , under which prlc s de
clined. December getting down to 63Hc
nbout nn hour from the start. In the
Jnenntlmo September had begun to show
radical weakness. Cash demand was re
ported poor and primary receipts 1,659.000
iin. wheat , were 400,000 1m. larger than n
year ngo. This was partly offset by heavy
clinrnnccs , which were put nt 925,000 bu. , and
cumplalntfl of the Russian wheat yield. Hut
i-xtremc weakness of outside cash marketc.
notably Now York , nnd attempts by deal-
rs In that city to resell wheat recentlv
liought here , but not yet shipped , started
liquidation that brought the prlco down
with a. rush , all classes of pollcrs came
Into the market , the rapidity of the decllnp
bringing out stop orders both In September
nnd December. The latter option had ral
lied to 63io on the heavy clearances , but
the selling which the slump in September
Blnrtcd brought the prlco down to 63c. The
jnnrket grew very heavy toward the close.
Helling pressure was removed In a degree ,
iiut the weak cash situation was very ef
fectual In keeping buyers away , nnd prices
kept declining to the ond. At the close
December was bringing C2462 7-Bc , practl-
onlly bottom figures for the day. Septem
ber showed nt one. time n break of 3VC.
helling down to 64 ic from 68c , the opening
lirlco. It closed nt ISc.
Corn waa weak all day. liquidation mostly
from elevator people nnd receivers keeping
prices on the down grade. Cash Inquiry
was fair , but not much business was done.
Hecclpts were IlberaI-785 cars. Seaboard
reported thirty-eight loads for export. The
jnarket was weakest In the afternoon when
Hympathy with when ! caused general sell
ing. December ranged from 29 7-Sc to 29 3-8c
nnd closed 3-SJJHo lower at 29 3-isc.
The market for oats was easy , prices be
ing Influenced by wheat nnd corn. Sep
tember holders sold September nnd bought
December In limited quantities. Trade ns
11 whole was light. Receipts were 3i\5 cars.
Clearances were light. May ranged from
227-So to 22'XiC und clotted ' , i < 33-8c lower at
C2Hc.
Provisions , In view of the weakness of
the groin markets , were surprisingly
Hteady. Liberal hog receipts caused
idlghtly lower prices nt the opening. There
was moro or less short selling In expecta
tion that thn break In grain would affect
prices , but all offerings were taken and the
rteadlncss the market displayed caused
general covering later. At the close Jnnu-
ry pork was 7'ic higher , at J9.12H ; January
lard Zlfcc higher nt 54.90 and January ribs
unchanged at J4.72U.

llurlliiKl * ' 'H AiiKiint Stiitoincnt Curry
NEW YORK , Sept. 29.-Tho Burlington
August statement lurnlshed a loser today
to curry prices upward , and this develop
ment was the only factor of conseiiucncJ
bearing upon the general situation. It Is !
true that the Industrials' , to u considerable
extent , dominated the market , but spec
ulation showed u tendency to ignore nuc-
tuatlutis In this group. This circumstance
caused some favorable comment , as did nl o
the fuel that the general list lapsed into
steadiness when concerted attacks on the ,
specialties were made . London quotations
Indicated a more favorable disposition
toward Americans abroad , which was re-
llected In good Imylng here throughout the
day. Opcr.uions by the bear faction weru
renewed In various directions , with Man
hattan looming to the frnnt. Tobacco , ut
course , wus the most vulnerable point
and soon yielded to 123. Covering of shorts
put tho' price back to 12S's and Interme
diate fluctuations between that und the
close , at 12S't , were accompanied by violent
lent dips. Tne stock , generally speaking ,
showed a better tone and ended for the
llrst time this week with a net advantage.
An analysis of thu Burlington llgures
proved that the. fears concerning It en
tertained jtsterday were groundless nnd
tluro waa a brisk movement to cover ,
which advanced the prlco almost 2 points.
The gross Increase wus realized solely
from the passenger trnlllc , the freight
earnings continuing low , owing to tno
light grain movement. The mauuijemont
pursued the policy adopted by other Im
portant lines of expending a largo per-
oentago of Income In betterments charged
to operating expenses and this division

BOSTON , Sept. 29. The American Wool
and Cotton Reporter says ;
So far ns local trading Is concerned , the
market shows no chiinire worthy of men-
i tlou. The money market Is favorable and
1 prices of wool are well maintained. We
do not hear of any striking concessions.
There seems to bo nothing for any one
to do except wait for developments.
In the matter of exporting wool our
dealers feel that there Is possibly room
for considerable activity. The wools that
re being exported are of course wools
In bond on which the duty has not b ° en
paid. These are mostly direct Importations
from Australia , although they Include
some wools bought at the London sales

good selection of merlnoa , principally
Queensland , which rul ° d llrm to slightly
below the highest price secured nt this
series nnd were largely taken by the con
tinental buyers. Fine cross-breds showed

drawn on nccount of the seller's prlco not

NEW YORK , Sept. 29. The market for
dry goods was a quiet one today. ThTO
was little or no store trading at first hands
and few buyers In the city. Mall orders
were also light In nearly nil divisions of
the market. The week has not rnlllnd from
the conditions resulting from the ceUhrn-
tlon of the Jewish holiday of Monday. Thorp
\vero Fomc changes In the market , but they
i w.ro not of vital Importance. Thus in the
I division of woolens nnd worsteds for men'n
wear there was slightly more activity in
i moro lines due to the arrival In the market
] of large manufacturers of clothing who
i med d to replenish the stocks behind their
machines. But their opnratlons have b - n
by no means heavy. In direct contradiction
to this the market for dre-s goods contin
ues uniformly slow in all grades , evm the
moro btaplc lines being utterly without
feature. In cottons there Is equally as
much dullness. Print cloths were quoted at
2c for extras.

CATTLE There was a great falling
off In the receipts , as will be noted
from the figures at the head of
column , and still the arlvals for
the four days are for In excess of what
they were for the same period last week
and the week before. In suite of the
large receipts the market has been in re
markably good shape and shippers have
been pleased with sales.
Today both Chicago and Kansas City re
ported a weak opening , and thnt fact
would naturally have a tendency to depress
the market at this point. Still there \\as
no great number of cattle here , and for
that reason the market as a whole did not
chow much change.
There was a fair demand for cornfed
steers , and though buyers would have
liked to have gotten them a little lower ,
there was not much chance to bear thp
market when there were hardly enough
cattle to go the rounds. The result vas
In some Instances salesmen complained that
that they paid about steady prices , though
the trade was slow. Desirable crass cattle
tlo good enough for killers sold also In
about the same notches AS yesterday.
Cows and heifers were not materially
changed In the matter of values , though
early buyers showed come Inclination to
ask for concessions , but In the end they
cleared the yards at about the same prices
as they paid yesterday.
A good many feeders and stock cattle
were shipped out Into the country , but
there was still a largo number In the
hands of regular yard buyers. BO that the
demand for the fresh arrivals was notes
os brisk as It might have been under
different coudltions. In some Instances
where sellers happened to have something
choice they called the trade strong , and
there were cases where cattle carried over
brought more money than was offered yes
terday. At the same time It was rather
hard work to unload some of the arrivals ,
not because of anv difference In values ,
but on account of the accumulation of cat
tle having tuado buyers a little cautious.
As values arc considerably lower than a
week ago It would seem to be a good time
for the country to buy. Moreover , the
offerings being large , buyers would stand
a very good chance of securing just the
kind wanted. Representative sales :

IIOC1S Light receipts and n Rood de

this morning , but ns against that came re
ports nt liberal receipts and lower prices
nt both Kansas City and Chlongo. At the
opening the bear Influences teemed to be
In the ascendency nnd buyers' bids were
generally n little easier. In other words ,
the market opened weak. It did not long
remain In thnt condition , however , as buy
ers all wanted IIORS nnd the trade soon be
came active nnd the market closed strong.
Taking the market as a whole ItMIS just
about steady with yesterday. The hops sold
at ? 3.60JT3.72Vi. with the long string nt
? R.C21Si73.65 ( , the same ns yesterday. It
will be noted from the table of average
prices nt head of column that the market
Is now just about lOc lower than It was ono
week ngo. The decllno In values this week
Is doubtless resnonslble for the moderate re
