CHICAGO, Oct. lS-EOr saturday, trade on
Change was exceptionally large. Il was even
larger than for any day under the present
regime. The extremely weak stock market
appears to have not only influenced wheat
downward. but 10 have instituted an activity
among scalpers which has put money into
coed many bears pockets. November wheat
closed t0-dsy at l414c, having opened at $40
7i5sc-cheaper than yesterday close: Inc
lowest point touched to-day was f4c. wheat
was subject to several depressing influences,
among which were free receipts, weak stocks
aud an estimate by King \ Co. of Toledo,
crease OF 100000 bushels. The best prices OF
the day were current at the opening. Outside
points reported a free movement, but lndi-
Gated probably falling of in receipts. This
is especially true at St Louis where McCor-
mick & Co. report that their travellers are
unable 10 buy wheat at present prices. New

Corn ruled irregular and rather lower, with
the widest range and most weakness in DC
tober. which dropped from 5lZc down TO 1870
and later recovering to 4Sc. at which itclOsed.
Long deliveries were rather dragged down in
sympathy. The remarkable action OF the &c
t0ber option is said to have compelled the
clique TO mortgage cash stun to put up mar
gins. In this connection it is said that corn
