good inquiry for spot wheat was noted
from the first this morning and while buyers
talked lower they kept buying steady right
along. When the depression i'll futuers was
greatest they tried to work figuers down on

upturn of " was reached for December. AL
though receipts wer larger the tables were
less crowded with samples than some days
with smaller arrivals The samples had
among them all sorts of wheat and consider
able OF 1t faulty in one or other respects.
One elevator concern picked up
large number of cars No. and many
of other lots that were competent to
be improved by good handling. Carriers Of
straight No northern found the millers
paying above them most of the time. Ship
