CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-The wheat market was
excited, unsettled and feverlsh throughout
the entire session TODAY, nuctuating widely
at times but with general tendency toward
a lower range Of prices. The estimate OF an
increase of 1900, 600 bushels in the visible sup
ply OF wheat, according TO Chicago figures,
was considerably larger than had been gem
orally expected apparently, although the New
lork figures showed an increase OF only
100000 bushels. The principal increase oc-
CURED at Minneapolis and Duluth, which
points are not included in the New York
statement. Cables quoted foreign markets
easier, and the opening here was weak IN
consequence, starting &c lower ana sold OIL
&c additional 10 S934c for December before
any general buying set in. To steady
market under fair buying the price advanced
sc to 9O5sc, fell on again 10 sage, rose to O19c,
bat Just before the close Of the regular board
the pressure TO sell became very great, and
the market fell back to inside figures, finish
ing at S9s4 lgS9Isc for December. The temper
was again very weak IN the afternoon, De-
cember breaking of 20 Ss3sc, the lowest
figures in vogue for several weeks, and closed
AT the inside. Receipts continue quite large,
ana export cearlngs continue light. There
was very little support given the market IN
the afternoon, and the rush to sell was very
great, although at the lowest some very large
iOts changed hands. The corn market showed
more life and prices ruled lower, Influenced
by large receipts and cooler weather. Prices
declined $sG34c for near futures, and closed
at about the inside figures Oats are d9ll
and easy, but prices exhibited only slight
changes. Provisions in fair demand aud
ruled generally a shade frmer.
