CHICAGO, Sept 24. The net result of a
quiet session of the wheat market today
was a slight decline. He for December.
Corn and oats) gained Vifc-o and provisions,
2itJU7fcc.
The volume of wheat which changed
hands today was small, and the range of
prices narrow, never getting far below
or above last night's prices. The news
of the day was not exciting. Export mles
were placed? at 87 loads. Snow and rain
prevailed In parts of North Dakota and
northwestern Minnesota, and Atchison,
Kan., reported the first rain In that section
In seventy-five days. Monday's receipts at
Minneapolis and Duluth were expected to
be heavy. December was closed c under
yesterday at I1.0H4, Seaboard clearances
In wheat and flour were equal to 686,000
bushels. Primary receipts. 1,916,000 buehels,
compared with 978,0u0 bushels a year ago.
Local carlots were 46 cars, six of contract
grade. Total receipts at Minneapolis, Du
luth and Chicago were 1,394 cars, against
1,843 last week and 746 a year ago.
Corn was dull, easy early, but firm
later. Support was good because of pre
diction of frost. Local receipts numbered
194 cars, 67 of contract grade. The ship
ping demand was fair.
After a few early sales there was no pres
sure on the oats market, and prices were
maintained with little effort In the stag
nant condition of trade. Cash oats steady
Local receipts were 217 cars.
Save for the selling of October lard the
provisions market was neither interesting
nor active today. Closing prices, H4y7Ho
over yesterday, were Indicative rather of
lack of pressure than support.
Estimated receipts for Monday: Wheat.

CATTLR Receipts of cattle this week
have been liberal as compared with recent
weeks, with the exception of last week,
when the receipts were exceptionally large,
being heavier than thin week by 13,600 head.
The arrivals have consisted almost entirely
of rangers, with only a slight sprinkling
of cornfeds.
The market for range steers has been ln
very satisfactory condition all the week.
The trade earjy was a little slow occa
sionally, but as the week advanced and as
It became apparent that receipts were not
going to be overly large prices firmed up
quite rapidly, so that the trade took- on a
good healthy and fairly active condition
toward the last. At the close of the week
It Is safe to quote the market 25c higher
than at the low point on Thursday of
lost week. Cornfed steers, on the other
hand, have been very unsatisfactory sell
ers. The situation will be readily under
stood by anyone who will stop to consider
for a moment. With range gross steers
of good quality ln liberal supply and any
where from $1 to $2 cheaper than cornfeds
It will be readily understood that packers
give the preference to the cheaper rattle,
it Is only when they have special, orders to
fill that they are good buyers of cornfeds.
Henco the market Is very uneven and er
ratic, It being very hard work to move
cornfeds on some days and a very easy
matter on other days when packers happen
to need a few and are willing to bid up on
them.
The market on cows and heifers has
moved along on lines about parallel wtlh
the steer market and at the close of the
week cattle of that description are gen
erally quoted about 25c higher than . lost
week.
Quod weighty feeders have been- very
fair sellers all the week and at the close
are safely strong to 10c higher tnan a week
ago. On the other hand, all kinds of Block
ers and trashy feeders have been very
slow, and It has been hard work to move
them from day to day. In fact on some
days the trade might be sold to have been
demoralized. At the close of the week
there are still tn the hands of speculators
at least a good many cattle of that de
scription unsold. The reason for this state
of affair la to be found In the wide pre
vailing drouth that has dried up pastures
and made farmers reluctant to buy any
thing for fall feeding on grass. Reports of
rains at the close of tho week from various
sections of the state may be expected to
put a little better face on the market for
ine coming week.

HOGS The best hogs this morning sold
around 6c lower, with other kinds on down
to as much as 10c lower. The trade was
very uneven, as has been the case every
day for some time back. There Is such a
wide range In quality at the present time
that prices aro spread far apart. While
buyers seemed to want the better loads, the
trade on the common kinds was very slow,
and some hogs which for some reason or
other did not happen to appeel especially to
buyers, were hard to unload.
For the week the receipts foot up 23,714
head, as against 24,074 head for the previous
week and 84,209 head for the same week a
year ago. The tendency of the market this
week has been downward, although at the
ou'.set there was a little advance. At the
close hogs are generally selling anywhere
from steady to 10015c lower. This means
that the decline has been principally on the
common to pretty decent kind of bogs, while
the best klnda have shown little change.
It will be readily understood from this
that the spread In prices hss been con
siderably widened as to what It was a week
ago.

SHEEP Sheep receipts this week have
been the heaviest of the year, 122,733 head
being reported In the yards. The corre
sponding week of last year witnessed the
heaviest run for any one day ln the his
tory of the yards, but. still, the total for the
week fell short of this week's record by
14.700 head.
I'nder the Influence of the very heavy
receipts, both sheep and lambs broke
sharply and the trade at the beginning of
the week was duller- than usual at this
point. Later on In the week, as the coun
try became aware of the large receipts,
feeders buyers flocked lu and the market
took on very much more activity. NsiurwlW,
prices firmed up and part of the loss, was
rer-overed. At the close sheep are generally
quoted around loay. lower than last week's
close. This would be true of both killers
and feeders.
Fweder -lembs constituted the great big
bulk of the week s receipts, and they,
naturally, brokn the worst, a good nHnv
iHrnbs selling the middle of the week a
good 60r lower. As the market' became
more arthe. a reaction set In. snd at the
close prices show only about I'xfiSfcc loss, as
ton; pared with Inst week's clivse. Fat
Is mbs. while In very moderate supply, broke
down along with feeder.
An InterewMng foalure of the week's run
of sheep and lambs Is the fart that Omaha
snd Chh-ngn received In round n um hers
Identically the same number during the
first five dnvs of the week, namely 122,noo
head. This shows more plslnly than any
thing else the shifting of the shepitrd
westward In Omaha, due to the fact flint
this Is the center of the sheep feeding dis
trict and that the stork naturally comes to
the point where the demand Is the best.
