Whether It's because the crop Is running
that way or because farmers are selling
their beat wheat flrst, I cannot say, but
I believe It's the latter. Market Is still
influenced by tUe weather.
George A. Adams Grain Co John Inglls
writes from Norfolk, Neb., September 15:
"Norfolk, fifty mile north from Columbus,
fields more uneven. While apparently well
eared, there Is a very heavy shuck, points
of ears riot filled; also a large percentage
of Imperfectly filled nubbins. Yield will be
smaller than percentage of condition indi
cates. No frost this morning, but very cold;
fires on train, also In hotels,"
Edwards, Wood & Co-'a advices say:
The milling demand for wheat was quiet
and prices averaged about the aame as
Wednesduy, abound 11.17 for No. 2 red. No.
I hard sold at 31.16. At Kansas City the
cuab. market was ateady at 31.16 to 31,18
for No. 2 hard. Southwest receipts are
falling off and it la difficult for outsldors
to buy. It must be plain to any one by
this time who has followed the primary
. movement mostly that winter who l re
ceipts are on the decline, and unltms there
is a sharp increase in spring wheat at
Minneapolis that lias been talked of so
much ttia situation will become critical.
Wheat to arrive was wanted at 6c over
December. It would be hard to Imagine
freater inducements for a northwestern
armer to make delivery of his wheat.
Minneapolis says the activity of the millers
in the caah market suggests that there is
going to be a bard fight among users of
wheat. The flour trade has begun to pick
up and from now on there Is every reaaon
to believe that the situation will reaemble
that of other years. Until a few days
ago flour buyers were very scarce, but
stocks of flour muet be kept up, and man
ufacturers aro confident business will in
crease until it reaches a normal stage
and buyers must pay the price caused by
tit poor crop and the corresponding higher
prices of wheat.

Prleea Beard of Trade.
CHICAGO. Sept. M. A break of cents
occurred In wheat prices here today as a
reeult of heavy Uqnldatlon. due to warmer
weather end to lower prices In foreign
grain markets. The market cloned almost
yt the lowent point. Corn n down Kc
l'c. Oats were a shade higher end pro
vlFlons unchanged to 6t7c lower.
From start to finish the whent market
wa chnrar-tTlsed by extreme weakness. A
belief that the present bull campaign had
reached Its zenith apparently prevailed
quite generally In the pit and as a result
the murkot was subjected to heavy realis
ing sales throughout the entire session,
warmer weather In the west and north
west wss perhaps the most Influential fac
tor affecting the market. The Initial sales
Were made 'at a considerable decline from
yesterdny'a closing quotations, December
being down ,Vc to 'ac at 31.14
lli'4. May opened 4'&c to c lower at
31W;1.1. A slight rally occurred soon
after the opening on covering by shorts,
the May option advancing to t1.1K. The
rally was nnly momentary, however, the
market soon weakening again under free
offerings. Before the declining tendency
wns checked prices were fully 2 cents below
the high point of the dav. December sold
off to 31.13 and Mny to 31.14. Final quo
tations on December were at 31.1SV(il l3.
May closed at 3114'61.16. Clearances of
wheat and flour were equal to 46 600 bushels.
Exports for the week, according to Urad
streefs, were equal to 9W.OO0 bushels. Pri
mary receipts were 952.6HO bushels, corn
fared with 1,057.1) bushels a year ago.
Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported
receipts of 674 cars, against 420 last week
and 7!9 a year ago.
Prospects of better weather, continued
large primary receipts and the slump In
wheat were the factors that accounted for
a break of 1 cent In the price of corn.
Longs were liberal sellers throughout the
entire day. Decemher opened f3VC to Vi
c lower at 61fi52c. sold between 60c
and 62M,e and closd at Blc. Local receipts
were 605 care, with 88 of contract grade.
In spite of weakness of corn and wheat
the onts market held steady. The volume
of business was light, trailing being con
fined mainly to local traders. December
opened c lower at S2V(i32Sc. sold up to
22c and closed at the top. Local receipts
were 112 cars
Influenced by the weakness of corn and
by the continued liquidation of October
holdings, the provision market had an
easier undertone. Trading waa quiet. At
the close January pork fcvas down 2fjBc at
312.75. Lard was off 5-7c at 37.107.12.
Ribs were unchanged atf3.86i.67.
Estimated receipts far tomorrow: Wheat,
84 cars; corn, 608 cara; oats. 139 cars; hogs,
11.000 head.

wltn the rest ot the market. Tne market
waa much quieter than yesterday or on any

a further depression. Amalgamated Copper
rose In face of the general declining tern

sharp rise In copper prices In London. A
reduction In the rate of dividend distribu

effect on the stock.
Gross earnings for the first week of
September made a favorable comparison
with the corresponding week of last year,
the ratio of Increase for roads reporting
reaching 4.18 per cent. The rising rate for
money seemed to disturb apeculaX've senti

during the dHy. The currency movement
up to Thursday night shows a loss In cash
by the banks of upward of $6.niO.,mo. the
loss to the subtreaiury alone accounting for

CATTLE There was a very moderate run
of cattle In sight today at all points, aid
tirlces on most clasaes of cattle showed
,ut little chunge from yesterday. Trading
was fairly active on anything at nil desir
able, so that a good clearance wua made at
a reasonably early hour.
There were Just a few bunches of corn
fed steers In tne yards this morning, and
no quotable change in the market took
place. Receipts liuve been light all the
week, so that In reality a good test of the
market has scarcely been made. As com
pared with a week ago, it is safe to say,
however, that desirable grades are fully
steady, while common and warmed-up cat
tle are more or less neglected, the same
as usual at this season of the year, when
the western rangers are available.
The market for western grass beef steers
was quite active and steady with yesterday.
There were some good cattle on sale from
Wyoming that brought $4.40. That was the
top price for some little time past, and the
cattle weighed 1323 pounds. Aa compared
with a week ago, the general market on
grass beef steers Is a little higher, the de
mand at this point apparently being In ex
cess of the supply.
The better grades of cows were somewhat
neglected this morning, and sold at rather
uneven prices. In some cases they sold
about steady, and in others they were a lit
tle lower. Packers still feel that grass cows
are selling high, as compared with steers,
and consequently they want to buy their
cows for less money. Canners and cutters
were In good demand, the same they have
been all the week, and prices held steudy
with yesterday. For the week they are
about 15c to 25c higher, while the better
grndes ure not much different. '
Bulls, veal calves and stags sold at Just
about steady prices.
The stocker and feeder market was rather
slow, the sit me as is generally the case on a
Friday. Good heavy cattle or 'prime year
lings were in good demand at steady prices,
but no one seemed to want light stockers,
particularly if they were a little lacking In
quality. Such kinds are almost unsalable
at any price, and have been accumulating
in the yards for several days. Representa
tive sales:

HOGS There was a very small rurl of
hogs here this morning for a Friday, but
reports from other points were unfavorable
to the selling Interests, and as a result the
market eased oft a trifle, aa compared with
yesterday morning. As compared with yes
terday's close, however, the market was a
little stronger. The average today also
showed a small loss from yesterday. The
market was a little slow In opening, but
after buyers and sellers got together It did
not take long (or everything in sight to
change hands. Heavy hogs sold largely
from $5. 4600.56, with some common heavy
packing grades from $5.45 down. Medium
and mixed loads sold largely from $5 65 to
$0.60 and choice lights and butcher weights
from $560 to $5.70, with a small bunch at
$5.75. There was not much change In the
market from start to finish, and a good
clearance was made by the middle of tha
forenoon. Representative sales:

SHEEP There were only about ten cars
of sheep and lambs here this morning, and
as all the buyers were looking for a few
fresh supplies, the market ruled quite ac
tive and fully steady on desirable grades. It
took only a comparatively short time for
everything In sight to change hands. As
compared with a week ago, good stuff Is
about steady In the case of both sheep and
lambs, with the demand active. Some of
the part fat sheep may be a trifle lower,
and part fat lambs In some cases may be ns
much ns 10(&j16o lower, but the more de
sirable grades are selling In very much the
same notches they did a week ago.
The demand for feeders was equal to the
supply today, and prices held steady. For
the week the market on both feeder sheep
and lambs can safely be quoted active and
fully steady, and some of the better grades
have sold a trifle higher.
