rv,1rtro Oct. wheat was influenced
,,ora or less as is usual on Monday. by the
Fisible supply figures, which looked hrst pear
lsb then bullish. An estimate of 100000
hu increase was wired from Milwaukee early,
and later that city sent 1,O0O,O0O as the
probabIe increase. The official figures, COM
piled by Secretary Stone. Of the board et
trade. gave an increase of 100000 bu. or loss
than the lowest amount made Saturday OF
this morning. The first influence OF the
morning was the published cable giving spol
wheat lad dearer and futures tending up
ward On this first prices were little hlgheF'
ut S3I2c for December and S0FSc 1or
NAV But the receipts here were - cars

eluded 80 cars of contract wheat Re
reipts in the Northwest proved the
bear influence of the morning. Minneapolis
received rs cars and Duluth 33I cars.
There was a drop in prices to 93c for Decem-
Der and S5ssc for May. An hour later, when
II became evident that the big estimate made
in the supply was sure TO prove disappoint-
ing, there was decided bulge to s3a4c for
December, and SEC for May. The market did
not hold at these figures, and under heavy
selling by Jones -Kennett. Baxter and
Schwartz-Dupee prices yielded TO 93lse for
December and s5lac for May. There was
but little recovery from these figures up to l
O'Clock. The estimate of 2ST cars for Tues
