CHICAGO, October 1.-THE wheat trade
had a hard time of it to-day. Late in the
session the bears pressed the selling and
forced prices to the low point Of the year.
The slowness of the Senate concerning
silver continued as a weakening influence.
Charters were 227, 900 for wheat but moth
ing can prevent a large increase IN stocks
here for the week, and an enormous in
crease OF 1000, 900 bushels or more In the
visible supply. There were no cables and
practically no news from the East, nearly
all the wires being down and operators
were left somewhat at sea. This gave the
bears an excellent opportunity for raidiDg,
and they improved IL. Corn was depressed
by the action of the wheat. Oats dull and
lower. Provisions traders had a dull day.
