CHICAGO , Sept. 2S.-Wlth the excep
tion of u short period of weakness early
In the session wheat was strong today
and closed nt % frlc advance for Decem
ber and I'/fcc for September. The strength
of corn , a small visible Increase , and a
recovery In cables , helped , but the
BtrcnRth was mainly In Increased trade
and timidity of the bear crowd , Corn
xvaa strong and advanced % c. Oats ad
vanced V40Uc and provisions closed un
changed to 7'/ic higher.
The opening In wheat was weak with
no especial Important trade. Both local
professionals and outsiders were sellers
In a moderate way and for a short tlmo
prices showed a drooping tendency and
ranged slightly below Saturday's clone.
The weakness was mainly on account of
u. decline at Liverpool , though this was
expected to follow Saturday's decline
hero. Receipts nt most western primary
points were heavy , though they aid not
reach Inst year's total. This fact , how
ever , was lost sight of for the time be
ing. The narrowness of trade at Drat
rendered the market susceptible to the
trivial factors , but later cables showed a
complete recovery from the opening de
cline , with u slight advance In some
futures. This was a cue for locaal trad
ers and prices Immediately felt the effect
on the Increased buying. As the ness-Ion
jirogresed trading became much broader
and moro general. Heavy buying orders
came from the southwest , St. Louts send
ing bullsh dispatches concerning demand
from country millers and falling supplies ,
Scarcity of cars was reported In the
Duluth region with a heavy Hour busi
ness , Thu visible , which was expected to
thow a heavy Increase , fell short of ex
pectations by a long ways , the Inoroaso
being but 4UO.OOO bu. The gradual nd-
vance In prices brought early sellers Into
the market but little wheat was offered
for sale , the bear crowd bcltifj appar
ently timid about sellng In the present
condition of the market and the prices
were bid up sharply before offcrlngH be
came liberal enough to supply the de
mand. The market finally got well nbovo
calls and Helling against those privileges
checked the udviinco for a time , but near
the close oC the session shorts again bid
prices up sharply and the close was
Htrong nt close to top figures. Minneapolis
und Duluth receipts were 1.301 cars
against 1,452 last week nnd 1,663 a year
ngo. Chicago receipts wore 232 cars , two
of contract grade. . Total primary re
ceipts were 1,591,000 bu , , compared with
3,792,000 bu. last year. Atlantic port
clearances of wheat and Hour aggregated -
gated 776,000 bu. The seaboard reported
only nineteen loads engaged for export ,
but was a good buyer In this market.
World's shipments were 7,500,000 bu. , or
about 1,000,000 bu. over estimated weekly
requirements , December wheat opened
% ® ! io lower at 72lc. It sold at 72 > , &c ,
then advanced to 73c. A reaction to 72c
was followed by a steady advance to
731c , the market closing at 73sc. . Septem
ber closed lc higher nt 71sc. A feature
of the late advance was the strength
of corn. Nervousness over September
corn shorts had considerable Influence on
wheat speculators.
Corn was active and strong after a
short period of easiness at the opening.
The weakness was mostly In sympathy
with wheat. Receipts were heavy and
local stocks Increased 1,069,000 bu. , but this
did not affect prices. Shorts In Septem
ber were evidently apprehensive of a
corner , and were active bidders all day.
The price reached 35c , where there was
plenty for sale , and the advance was
checked. Deferred futures were strong In
eympathy and good advances were scored
nil around. Receipts were 1.C57 cars.
September ranged from 34c to 35c and
closed % c higher nt 35c. December
ranged from 29ic to 30 < 5 and closed % c
higher nt 30V4c. . . . _ .
Not much was done IP oats. The mar
ket was easy early following other grain
markets , but later grew firmer and
closed at a slight advance. Trading was
exceedingly narrow all day nnd mostly ot
a scalping order. The cash demand was
only fair. Receipts were 4C2. December
ranged from 22c to 22ig23c , and closed
HSB' c higher nt 22c.
Provisions were quiet but steady. The
market showed uneasiness with grain at
the start , but another good advance In
meats at Liverpool nnd the later strength
of grain markets resulted In a recovery
of the slight declines nnd small ad
vances were scored In some products.
There was moderate sellng of January
product by packers. At the close January
pork was GQ7Ac } higher nt $9.80 : January
inrd unchanged at K.52',4 and January
ribs , 2 4f 5c higher , at J5.12W.

NEW YORK , Sept. 25. Students of Block
market cycles have observed that a violent
movement In cither direction Is certain to
overrun itself. Thus the forced liquidation
of the Inst few weeks has invited a horde
of bear followers. When the liquidation had
spent its force the short contracts of the
bears were left uncovered and the demand
from that source worked a sharp rally.
In the normal course of things a period of
dullness was then due and it arrived on
tlmo today. With money still tight no new
speculative dc and Is to bo expected im
mediately. On the other hand , speculative
accounts on the long side have been pretty
well shaken out and the bears are rather
chary of making venturesome Incursions
Into grounds that do not prove largo re
turns. But stagnation of demand means
declining prices , though the progress may
be but slow.
The conviction Is not strong that the
process of loan contraction Is completed '
entirely. A study of the detailed statement of
the clearing liouso banks revealed the fact
that the surplus Is made up from the holdIngs -
Ings of a few of the clearing house Institu
tions , while the majority of them are still
below their legal reserves. There was a
sharp reminder of this condition of affairs |
in the last hour of the trading today , when
call loans wore suddenly marked up to 12
per cent. The quickness with -which they
receded , however , to 6 per cent again gave
the higher rate the appearance of being
manipulated. Borrowers sometimes hold
off till late In the day in a hope of getting
better terms and they lind offerings largely
curtailed while their necessities are still ttn-
satlslled. The rate was down to BV4 per
cent earlier in the day. The flurry In the
lost hour caused the most active selling of
stocks of ihe day.
Those who reason that the point has been
turned toward easier moooy conditions
found little In the day's occurrences to en
courage them. The New York exchange
was heavy at practically all Important
points and shipments to Interior continue.
New York subtreasury also continues to
absorb funds from the banks. The large
supply of gold certlllcates now available
Is far from Improving conditions in Now
York and rather aggravates them , as it
simply facilitates the movement to the In- '
terlor. A firmer tone of sterling exchange
precluded hopes of an early gold movement.
Discounts In Berlin stiffened sharply and
sterling exchange there fell a fraction.
Discounts in London responded with a rise
of a fraction. ,
No marked strength was manifest In
stocks at any time during the day in spite
of the bidding up of Brooklyn Transit and
Leather preferred. The specialties show
the sharpest losses , reaching between 2
and 4 points In a number of Instances. In
the railroads the grangers were most af
fected , but a number of other railroad
stocks are down as much as a point.
Bonds were not as weak as stocks , as
there were a number of flrm spots in the
market. Total sales , par value , n.240,000.
United States 2s declined % and the old 4s ,
registered , advanced % In the bid price. |
The Commercial Advertiser's London
financial cablegram says : The markets
hero wore stagnant and drooping today In
view of the political outlook and the set- j
itlement tomorrow. Americans were dull <
till the afternoon , when they fell away in ]
the absence of New York support , finishing
at the lowest. Spanish 4s were 61V4 : tlntos ,
4654 ; Anacondas , 104. Seven thousand
pounds sterling In French coin was bought
by the bank. The bank did a little
business at 3 % . Silver was harder on the
French tender of 30,000 kilos to bo lodged
Thursday.

CATTLE Today's arrivals of cattle were
the smallest lor a Monday since the first
Monday In the month , only 213 cars being
reported In , as against 377 a week ago and
300 two weeks ago. Almost all the cattle
hero were from the range and the market
as a whole was not very much changed
from the close of last week.
Only one bunch of four loads of cornfed
steers were In the yards this morning and
they met with ready sale at $6. It was a
good bunch of very fat cattle and the price
paid looked Just steady with last veek.
From forty to sixty loads of grass steers
good enough for beef were In the
yards , but a large proportion of them
were of the kind that feeders could also
use , BO that feeder buyers and packers
were competitors on a good'many of the
cattle. There were , however , some pretty
good Montana cattle among the offerings ,
which sold at $4.7505.25. Such cattle as the
packers wanted brought prices that were
steady with the close of last week , in spite
of the fact thitt Chicago reported a large
run and lower , market.
Feeder buyers were out early and the
market at the opening- looked as If It was
going to be very brisk and possibly stronger.
It did not turn out quite , so good as sellers
anticipated early. In some cases cattle that
Just happened to please buyers may hav *
sold at a little stronger prices early , but
the general market was no more than
steady and common cattle toward the close
were decidedly sluggish.
Cows and heifers. In fact , all kinds of
butohors' stock , sold at Just about la.it
week's prices , no material change being re
ported In the market. Representative sales :

HOGS There was about the usual run
of hops at the yards today for a Monday ,
but the quality was better. Receipts were
made up largely of medium weight hops ,
with a few lightweights and a sprinkling
of heavy hogs.
The market opened about steady with Sat
urday's general market , though hardly as
good as Saturday's close. As Is apt to be
the case with a light run , packers were
not very active buyers and seemed Inclined
to discriminate against the heavy hogs.
These who had light or medium weight
hogs to sell found the early market fairly
active , but those who had heavy hogs found
it dlfHcult to get fully steady prices and In
some cases were calling the market lower.
The close of the market was slow and
draggy , but everything was finally bought
up at very near steady prices. Representa

sale.There
There were no good fat lambs among
! the offering * , at least none to speak of , nnd
i for ttiat reason salesmen -were atile , as a
i rule , to pot about steady prices for good
fat yearlings which packers could use In
place of lambs. On the other hand , mutton
wethers , under the Influence of the reported
.heavy . break In Chicago , -were selling a bout
i lOo and In extreme cases 15c lower. Sales
men were a little backward about letting
go and there was also a good deal of sortIng -
Ing up to b * done , so that It was rather
late before a clearance was effected.
The demand seemed to bo good for feeder
stock and there were a number of buyers
In the yards for the feeder lambs , which
were In larger supply than any previous
day this aeason. At the same time the re
ports from Chicago and the large local re
ceipts made buyers bearish ana as a rule
It seemed to be their aim to take off just
about lOc from last week's prices , but In the
end they paid about steady prices.
