CHICAGO, Oct. 8-The tendency in wheat
was downward again to-day and, in the latest
trading, prices were at the lowest point current
since the present decline began. 1t was reported
that there WAS some buying on foreign account,
but. if 3d. it had very little bearing on the
course OF prices. The market closed in the
latest trading &c lower than yesterday.
The offerings of corn were very large, and the
market broke off to the lowest prices prevailing
for several years. and the closing prices were
about the lowest of the day.
Oats were again weaker land prices again
lower the speculative offerings being large.
Prices ruled a03c lower.
There nervous and uncertain feeling in
the market for hog products, and only moder-
ate speculative trade occurred. The strike of
the packing-hous employees made operators
cautious in their dealings. Mess pork opened
507ac lower rallied 150 17ac, receded l00l23c.
and closed quiet at o'clock. On the afternoon
board prices fell off 5010c additional Lard
was quiet and weaker, and closed 5@7ac lower
than yesterday.
Flour was dull and unchanged.
