CHICAGO. Sept. 1s.-In wheat trading was
fairly active and prices irregular ruling higher
at the opening, but Immediately declined and
closed 13sOl16c lower than yesterday. An I'M
usually nervous and feverish feeling existed
during the early part of the session, occasioned
by bad weather in the northwest. also in sym
pathy with the advance in corn and the failure
OF an operator who has been largely short Of
wheat at lower prices. The opening was 40
l1sc higher tnan yesterdays closing figures.
Some stop loss orders were executed, as the
reported failure of the person alluded to led to
the belief that prices would be advanced thereby
under pressure to cover. But offerings became
very heavy, and then it also became known
that the party in question, as well as others,
had covered most of their short wheat yeSter
day This left the market without any support,
and under large offerings rapid decline fol
lowed, prices receding, with only fluctuations,
about 2lSc, recovered slightly, eased of again
and closed about 1s5G0115c lover In corp SEN
Satlonal weather news was the all-abSorbing
topic this morning before the opening, and on
the tap of the bell a scene OF the widest con-
lusion occurred. The opening was the most
excited and irregular in years, prices varying
SC in different parts of the pit The cause of
the nervous feeling was due to the weather map
being covered with reports of frost throughout
the entire corn belt as far south as Kansas and
Missouri. The failure of a local house also
tended to create very uncertain feeling, and
the opening was the scene of a semi-panio.
