CHICAGO, Sept 19-The wheat market
kept the crowd guessing to-day. The open
ing was trifle under last night with Bros
seau. Jones Kenneth, Baker. Rumsey and
Chandler sellers. December started at 79lac
and SOLD at 1850. This was the bottom for
the day. Hutchinson became a buyer and
by taking 100 600 bu turned the market up
ward September went to 717Sc and Decem-
Der TO 79$4e, or Ise over the top price yes
terdav, The crowd again fought the price
down. and there were selling orders from
New York and st. Louis. December touched
792s6l79i2c, and there was a fight around
this point. Hutchinson again bought heaV-
lily and later when the cars for tomorrow
were posted at ouly l3j, others also bought.
September went above 7Se and December to
79s4G795sc, another fraction higher. There
was a third drop to 19lac about noon,
followed by the best buying OF the
day, which carried September 10 ISAc.
December TO soc, with a yell from the bulls
and May TO slice. Up TO IL o'clock Decem-
Der held between 1859 and soc. There was
no very important cable news. Cables were
firm, with an advancing tendency, while
clearances were very mall. New York
cleared no wheat and the three Atlantic ports
only $1,000 bu, with an aggregate OF little
more than 200, 900 bU for the four days of
the week. William Dunn IL Co worked some
cash wheat here and al Duluth for Liverpool.
The inspection here was very poor, including
but six cars of contract wheat A few min
utes before the close wheat became even
stronger than at 1 O'Clock, and December
touched SJIse, and May 93ssc. Receipts
were 156 cars winter wheat u cars spring,
5S4 cars corn and IS5 cars oats by
rail, and $4,000 bu corn and 5000
bu oats by canal Withdrawals from store
were 4I8 bu spring wheat, 515,739 bu corn
and AZ. 600 bu oats, There was nothing from
the outside TO affect the corn market and the
trade made their own prices First prices
were steady or a shade lower all around. and
Hutchinson sold every thing from September
TO May. Prices yielded easily. The shorts
saw a chance to buy and did so, helping the
market up little before the close. Oats
were dull and unchanged. The provision
market was very slow during the entire ses-
sion, and prices of all products were about
the same as last night at the close.
