CHICAGO, III, Sept s-The enormous TO
ceipts which had accumulated since Saturday
was the principal reason for the drop OF 40
l4c in the price OF wheat, At the opening OF
business this morning there was heavy bust
ness done in the pit for the FIRST half hour, by
which time prices had declined to sS1sc for De-
cember, but although that was the point re-
which buyers had protection, IL did not bring
in enough of that business to lift the pr. 70
more than &c Up to about IL o'clock, and, in
fact. 1t dipped on one Of the counter reactions
10 9S1zc, and remained for some time li:eless
and around that point. Later the market
acted closing at 95tic, or &c lower than on Sat-
uTday.
Corn was nervous at the opening OF the sSs-
sion 1t was pulled tn a downward direction
by receipts since Sunday amounting to 1917 car
loads 1t was drawn upward by cool weatl =
throughout the corn belt anil reports OF the
ditiOn OF the crops Of Wisconsin and Iowa
The opening was over wide range OF prices
There were free sellers Of September at Csc, but
not buyers at over 6.14067Ii; October was Of
feTed from 80 down to IS &c.
There was quick reaction 10 59i2c when II
was seen how readily the first offerings were
absorbed Puts were palpably in fear OF the
dealings Of the clique, ana Immediately after
the brush of activity vas over the scalpers took
their cue and covered. The market had many
recurrent fits OF alternate strength and wea4
ness, selling as high as 59sac and down TO 5Sc.
but in the end it rested at 5S1zc, or at only nc
decline since Saturday.
Provisions started OF strong, end for n tirns

81 1873 to 81 27Is in a very few minutes, 7. On
longs attempted to realize, but found few buy
ers; the selling pressure rapidly Increased,
when the market weakened and soon went all
to pieces. October declined to $40 20. There
was rally TO $40 70, but the pressure was re
newed and the market again broke, going This
time to $40 %, and at the close was only 2isH
higher
