CHICAGO.
CHICAGO. ILL, September l9.-The
feeling developed in wheat to-day was
weaker. A fair business was transacted
The opening was isQhc. lower than the
closing figures OF yesterday. Prices then
ruled easy and declined %QAc.. held
steadler and the closing was iga%c lower
for December and Sc. lower for May.
The news was generally bearlsh.
Corn-The speculative trading was only
moderatively active, with the May future
attracting most attention. Business was
largely on local account. The market
opened firm AMI In some Instances sc.
was gained. offerings were quite liberal
at top prices. and there were frequent
fluctuations, the market recedlng S0t,c.
sf... 81. al, A
shown, and prices rallied lsnkc., and
clcsed quiet az about sc under Monday 4
prices.
Oats-The market was quiet and nc.
lower early. but reacted and closed steady
about the top, and was the same as on
yesterday.
There were no special features I'm pro
visions. The speculative market opened
stronger and higher on the receipts OF
hogs at the yards being under the es-
Inmates on their poor quality, and on a
prominent packing institution supporting
the market for lard. with short ribs al
vancing in sympathy. Later there was
very little doing. the offerings being light,
but the market ruled strong. and prices
advanced To a moderate extent, January
pork closing 2Tisc. higher and remaining
unchanged. October lard closed 35c. high
or. and October ribs 27lac higher.
