S, 'T 'nt wa strong during the greater pwri ot me ncMlon, but closed a lift i lower. Th: recent change In sentiment and tha resulting coveting and buying for long account were enough to overcome the In fluence of fine .uii, weak northwestern markets and the Indifferent cable response t' the markets in thin country yesterday. The critical point In the situation abroad I the extent of the Russian shipments. September cloned at Soltc December at tiW- and May at R.)c. Corn was quiet and In the end a little easier. Receipt ran about as expected, but it Is said tha volume will fall oft soon. Tha country la selling nothing. September closed at 68H old September at 634c. De cember at vsic, old December at 45c and May at 43ic. Oats were quiet and steady. Early there wa some weakness on the heavy overrun In Chicago receipts, but thla was In a largo measure recovered. Export Inquiries con tinue good. September finished at 25'5c, December at JTc and May at 29Hc Liverpool closed unchanged to Sd lower on wheat and unchanged to Hd lower on corn.

The world s wheat shipments for Monday ire estimated at about S.(no.nipO bushels, of which quantity Europe will take about LoiO.Oiin bushels. There probably will be a lair decrease of breadstuffs on passage. Australian wheat shipments this week were 2.000 bushels, against 400,000 bushels last fear. A round lot of 10.000 tons of flour was sold It Minneapolis yesterday to go to China. ill tne leading markets reported large iaes of flour, Kansas City selling t.OoO tarrels.

CHICAGO, Sept. . near weather In the northwest was the ctnrf reasons for a somewhat t-asy lone in the wtieal market here, today. At the close wneat for Dec-ember delivery was off Vc. Corn is oft V- Oats ape practically unchanged, Pro visions are a shade lower to TSu""-' higher. The wheat market opened easier, with December off a shade to Vgc. Dry weather throughout Minnesota and the l'a koiaa was the main cause of the initial de clines. As a I'-suit of Improved weather conditions It was claimed that arrivals of new wneat at Minneapolis on Wednesday would show an enormous Increase. Coin- mission hounes later became quite active purchasers. In consequence the markcj, f or a time showed considerable firmness. De cember advanced to Mc. The principal source of strength lay In large export bus iness reported at the seaboard. Another bullish influence was continued demand from millers for cash wheat. The market Suon yielded to persistent offerings from pit traders, prices selling bark to about the opening level. The Michigan crop report wa a bearish factor In the reaction. The wheat yield of that state Is estimated at lS.orO.OOO bushels, as aralnst .0oii)0 bushels last year. The market closed easy, with December at 82Hc. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 335.000 bushels. Pri mary receipts were 91S.(i0 bushels, com pared with 91R.00O bushels a year ago. Min neapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported re ceipts of 5" cars, against 469 cars last week and 332 cars a tear ago. Sentiment In the corn pit was bearish as a result largely of the excellent weather for the maturing of the crop. Trading was very quiet. At the close prices were at the lowest point of the day. December opened unchanged to c lower at 4S'Q4.T'c. sold off to 4So and closed at the bottom. Iocal receipts were 4j9 cars, with 2o6 cars of con tract grade. A liberal Increase In local receipts caused some weakness In the oats market. Mod erate purchases of May by a prominent commission house prevented any material decline In prices. December opened MiW'mC lower to 27',fi 27c, sold up to 27c and closed at 27. Local receipts were 336 cars. Provisions were steady on a Re advance In the prices of live hogs; offerings were small. At the close October pork was up Re at 110 45. I-ard was a shade lower at $7 70 Ribs were 7WS-10C higher at U.ftv Estimated receipts for Monday: Wheat, S3 cars; corn, 617 cars; oats, 375 cars; hogs, 2Smo head.

Good weit-nnisned loads nave sold up to fu.w. While range steers were quoted a little slow and weak one day the market was stronger again, and at the close of the week it would not be an easy matter to point out any material difference -between prices now prevailing and Uione 01 a week ago. The tendency ot the market on cows and heifers has been toward a lower basis, still the changes in the market from day to day have not been very noticeable. On Monday the market was quoted as weak to lower, on Tuesday strong, on Wednesday and Thursday easier and 011 Friday steady. Taking the week as a wnoie tne market is not oyer 10.15c lower. There has been good active demand all the week for feeders having weight and good flesh and good to choice cuttle of that description have been steady to strong every day. On the other hand cattle, even if good, but lacking flesh and light and thin, as well as common stockers and feed ers have been slow sale and are 204j30o lower than a week ago.

As waa the case yesterday morning ouyers picaeu out ine light loads paying prices that looked a litliu higher dot the trade was not active and it waa slow work unloading. After the belter loads were disposed of tne market slowed dowu and became very dull and weak on heavy packing hogs. As a whole the market did nut enow much change, the hogs selling In about the same notches as yesterday. The hog market lias Deen decidedly un satisfactory this week and still the change in nrloea has been very small. On Tuesday ami Wednesday the market waa quoted generally 6c lower for each day and every other day of the week It was slow and easier. In fact dullness has been the chluf feature of the market for some days bank and still at the close of the week prices are on an average, only about 10a lower than they were at the close of last week. Heavy nacklna hots have been the hardest to sell and have been neglected to such an extent on some days that It waa almost Impossible for holders to unload. Late arrivals at the yards have been especially hard to sell as the market waa closed dull and easier al most every day and anything arriving late was almost certain to sell lower than tha early market.

Receipts of sheep have been large this week, over 50.uu0 head having arrived at the yards during the sis days, as will be noted from the table of comparative figures. In round numbers this Is a gain over last week of 12. mO head and a gain over a year ago of IO.iuO head. The market this week has not been exactly to the liking of sellers, for the very good reason that price hav ben on the down grade. The market started out on Monday steady, but on Tueaday there was a weakening all along the line. On Wednesday la market received iu black eye. After twenty-four hours of steady rain the sheep arrived thoroughly wet and In no shape t.. sell So thst the market as the ouilest and deail.-sl that It has been ai this point In a long time, In ad dition to being lower, t n Thursday and Friday values remained Just about steady t the decline. Now, st the close of the week, sheep are all of 2o lower than they were a week ago and lambs are 214400 lower. Otoer markets have s iffcred In about the same proportion, the break In prices not being confined to this point by any means Feeding sheep and lambs at the close of the week are l.n-oc lower than a week ago, the decline being due to the hresl on fat stuff. With prices on feeders so high, It Is only natural that the market should follow down the fat sheep market. While there Is a oierv large dcinnnd for feeders, buyers feel that thev are pmlng high prices and so long as they fe. that w.v they may be depended upon to take anv advantage of favorable conditions to force values to a lower level.
