Chicago, Sept 11-Wheat occupied the un-
dignided position Of taller 70 corn to-day from
start TO finish. The market for the greater
part of the session was dun and uninterest-
ing, the fluctuations after the opening being
within moderate range. The government
report had been practically discounted
and orders from outside points were
conspicuous by their absence. FLUCTUATIONS
were largely a reflection of the changes
in the coarser grain. The news was
not encouraglng; cables were gen

firm in anticipation Of strong opening in
corn, but Immediately reacted when that
cereal weakened. subsequently, IL recovered

market rallied on good buying by commission

Corn was an exceedingly nervous market
after the opening to- day, II requiring Lut yery
little buying or selling TO advance or depress
prices. The market opened trm on the bull
tsh government crop report. This brought
large offerings to the front and with an insuf-
hcient demand to absorb them. 4 here teinq
practically no outside orders the market
broke sharply, declining l sc for the opening.
II subsequently, rallied on buying by shorts
and partly on confirmation from Washington
that the percentage OF condition OF corn as
given in the government report was based on
the present reduced acreage rather than on
the original acreage planted. These final
figures we're so near the expe .ted figures that
the market was left in rather a duh state
