CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET.
CHICAGO, September 2j-The last ten
minutes OF to-day's trade in wheat Wit
messed the only animation OF the day,
prices during that period reaching the low
est point Of the session. the selling, which
was instrumental In forcing a mild slump
coming from the local scalpers and mode
rate traders, who had bought during the
carly hours There was hardly an order
from the outside all day, and until the
closing hour even the inside business was
Of the most unimportant and restricted
character. Nothing Ot Importance ap-
pedred until the closing break occurred
the low point that was then made marking
new record for low prices. December
wheat opened at dr1a6iSsc., sold between

day. The tone. however. was derived
largely from the wheat and corn pits. the
final transactions being at 4 decline of i2c.
from those Of yesterday for May. Cash
oats averaged l2c better than yesterday.
Provisions Brokers' selling worked a
hole in prices Of product after frm early
tone to-day. The sales were presumably
for Armour. whilst the buying AZ and
around the opening was for the account OF
Swift < Co and other packers. The hog
market was weak for heavy grades and
higher for others. The effect Of this ir-
regularity was therefore doubtful The
close was 39c lower than yesterday for
January pork. l7i9c lower for January
lard. and Sc lower for January ribs.
The Fading futures ranged as follows:
