Withdrawn from store yesterday for city
consumption 1854 bu 1hoat 2,1l4 bu corn,
2,378 bu oats, 1889 bu rye, 97s bu barley.
Tho following grain haB baen inspected into
atoro this morning, up to 10 O'clock: 204 cars
whcnt $685. ears corn ; 1920 bu No. do,
aud 5000 bu roiccted do, by cana1; II cars
oats 4,400 bu rejected do, by canal; CT cara
ryo. Total (62l cars), 265, 600 bu.
It waa rumored to-day that Mr. Parker, tho
First Assistant Inspector Of Grain, had rcs1gnod
his position On account Of i'll health. Tho only
foundation for tho rumor was tho fact that son
Of Dir. Parker has resigned place on tho
: O., 3. 4 Q. track for bottor ono.
Tho Chicago, Dnnville .S VincenneB olovator Is
now finished, and ready to receive grain. It is
situated near the Rolling Milla, On tho South
Branch Of tho Chicago River.
A resolution was introduced On 'Ohango to-
day, to DO acted on tomorrow, to the effect that
whom tho Board Of Trade ndtourns on Thursday
It DO till Monday morning. Tho applause whlch
follow cd tho reading indicated that tho rosolu-
ton viii be adopted. Tho idea is good ono,
especially II thezo bo NO moro hot corn sprung
upon the men1bors dd interim.
THE CONDITION OF CORN.
It Ia very hard to find out anything definite
with regard to the condition OF the corn now In
: elevator, whether posted or unposted; but thoro
is little room to doubt that good deal OF It has
boen kept cool only by dint Of hard work, and
como discretion, on tho part of honorable ware-
houBome1,. II the rulo had required that No. 3
what is now called No. 2hcre would havo boon
graded o. rejected; and II tho rulos had specified
9 distinction between new corn and No. corn,
our grim dealor would probably haro beon
spared their present trouble. As it is, much Of
tho corn now hore must DO dealt with az II it
were No. corn, which it il not.
From all that We can learn Of tho condition Of
the grnin, thore will be no necessity for posting
any moro corn aa hot for (aay) couple Of weets
to come. The requirements Of tho situation
then viii largely depond upon whnt is dono in
the meantime. 1t Is Thought probable that our
receipts this month will pot DO so large as in
juno, owing to tho change in the rates of trans-
portation which goes Into eiroct today. II this
bo 80, then It will bo comparatively easy to ooct
q material reduction Of stouks nnd it il undoubt-
edly to the intcrost Of corn holders to work to-
gothor for that end. If they do not want to Bhip
It themselves, thoy soil It to others who will
II they insst On holding, thoy must risk the con-
eoquonccs.
No repeat our corn may DO all right, but it is
tho part Of wisdom to ship 1t ont while it is MI
right, and make room for moro to come in.
There is really no uao in holding it here cxcopt
! to bet on 1t, which is ono Of the poorest usoB
| which corn Gun De put TO.
| TIE MARKETS
Tho loading produce markets wero rather quiet
