CHICAGO, Oct. H.-Another severe break in
prices occurred to-day in cereal trading on
Change, wheat declinining to an extremely
low point amid great excitement; advices re-
ported dull and easy feeling, and the re-
ceipts here were considerably larger; these
causes, supplemented by the break in stocks
made tlmid holders unload, and the market
sank under its own weight; on the afternoon
board the market was at its weakest, closing
at 1890 for October, 741sc for November, 1917
(g763sc for December. 771s(g7714c for January
and SAC for May. The corn market was
almost demoralized under heavy selling, and
the break in prices caused an army of small
holders to let go, and for November prices
dropped 14(g4c; after selling off 23zc the mar
ket steddled and closed a shade better on the
regular board, but broke in the afternoon
again l5sc, and closed at 1870; October closed
at 5lssc, all the year at 1920 and May at 1910;
the impression was very strong that the par
ties who had been holding the market up had
unlOaded. aud the excitement during the early
decline was very great and became most in
| tense the offerings became heavy. Oats
ruled weak with the other markets, closing at
| 251ac for October, 253Ac for November. 2516c
for all the year and Sc for Nav. Pork was
weak at $l6 10 for October, $ll 9215 for all the
year and $12 0712 for January. Lard was
