The Chicago IHter-O Ocean OF Wednesday does
not speak in a c~onsOlatory manner TO holders
of corn. II says; Corn was in good de-
mand for shipment, dull on speculative ac-
count. Prices were weak and declining,
touching a lower point to-day than for some
years past, with the tendency still in favor Of
The buyer.our large stock and liberal arrivals,
backed by the fact that we are on the eve OF
gaTnering the most prolific crop Of corn grown
In the West for a few years past, all tending to
create the impression among operatives that
corn must go lower, though as with
the other cereals, corn Is undoubtedly cheap.
Planting was rather late in the spring, and
the chronic croakers were struck with the
short crop idea, but the season has been
" truly q corn-growing season." and beyond
peradventure-the crop, in the aggregate, be-
ing SAFE from injury by frOst-the yield this
will rival the best season of the past. The
decline to-day aggregates fully "A half cent
per bushel, and the market closes weak"
The st. Louis Times Of Thursday reports:
Business on Change yesterday was dull.
Freights steady at the advance. Wheat was
in only moderate Offering, under an exceed
ingly tight money market; mtllers bought
only lightly. To the East freightS are too
high 70 allow this grain to be forwarded to
that section with any show OF a pront, while
the order demand from the southwest and in
terror Of this State which has been quite fair,
was only light. Holders, in the face OF the
above facts, granted concessions of two to
five cents all round to winter, with few takers
at the decline. Flour was dun, but buyers
continue firm in their views. Corn sold only
IN C small way, principally on local account. !
Oats We're steady at Mondays reduction, and
quite a fair trade was had, there being some |
little inquiry for shipments South. Hay is
stdtu quo. Prime and choice was firm and in /
moderate request. Common and damaged not
wanted. Provisions quiet, but firm. Little |
done outside Of filling orders. Lard stiff"
The New Orleans LsCs re says OF flour: |
to the expectations Of many, The |
value OF wheat and -four lave not materi- !
ally declined since the break of the Chicago |
corner. When the news OF that great col
lapse spread over the country, the future 81
wheat seemed very blue. Confidence was !
soon restored, EOWest-, and of late we find
the markets OF the country have an upward
tendency. Miilers in st. Louis are ordering
their hours held here for better prices, and are
shipping sparingly. Receipts o. both wheat
and -four at the lake ports and at ST. Louis,
since August lSt, snow a decrease compared
with last year, which may be due either 10 the
OF farmers in better prices ruling
in the future, or to the real deficiency in the /
yield, which is claimed by some very good au-
thorities, who impute the falling off princi-
pally to the damage inflicted by heavy rains
after harvest and before the grain could be
tackled. The Western farmer is very indie
IS worth q certain price, he is able 10 hold il
as long as he may choose to do so. HIS nnan-
cial standing enables him 10 often strengthen
the market by causing a scarcity"
Casks and the Southern Market.
The st. Louis Republican says:
Louisville and Cincinnati are said 10 hold
advantage over st. Louis in the trade in
meats South, in the circumstance that in
those markets half casks are sold ut the same
Is whole ones, and that In this market,
from the alleged prOportiOnate increased cost
Of half over whole casks, q relative charge
must be made. Half casks OF meats are said
to be more desirable by the southern trade, as
they are more easily handled, and that il a re-
taller or a planter wants, say five hundred
pounds Of meat, which Is about the net Of a
half cask, the amount can be supplied with
out the necessity OF breaking a whole, while 4
haul IL home in better shape and condition
IL loaded loose in the wagon. 1t would
appear s~elf-eVident that half packages would
in every sense be preferable for the Southern
