CHICAGO, Oct 16.-The wheat market sus-
tanned severe attack of depression at one time
to-day, rallied from it, and during the afternoon
recovered somewhat of it's buoyancy and
finally closed shade higher than yesterday.
The cables came In weak, and the pit was full of
sellers at the opening, who succeeded in driving
December wheat down to 91a or lc lower than
the close last night The decline undenlably
brought out great deal of "long" wheat, and
the feeling for time was quite nervous. At
It's weakest point came news of the posting of a
large amount of wheat at New York as out of
condition. This caused great many nervous
holders to let 60 their property. and the
result was that the December future fell off to
9lsc, the lowest point of the day. Around that
Inquire very large quantities changed hands. The
buying became more general and the market ad .
under stronger buying, to 81, fell off and closed
at 91a 81 &c the regular board. In the after
noon there was an almost buoyant market, New
York taking the lead on improved export de-
mand and strong buying. December advanced
to 92sc, closing at the outside figure which is &c
higher than yesterday. The feeling strong
at the close. In corn the trading was slow, and
lower prices ruled during the regular session.

closing well up to yesterdays final quotations
