Chicago, Sept. 3O.-After a session In
which fortune favored the bears, wheat
in the final half-hour suddenly became
strong and advanced, traversing the en-
tire previous range of prices and going 15c
De9Ouu, nut lludlly CLOSING at a recession
from the outside, with a net gain of PC
for the day. The action was nervous at
most times, the crowd appearing to be
considerably mixed on the situation The
news was, as a rule, bullish. The talk
of manipulating the market is still discuss
ed, and the theory obtains new adherents
every day. December wheat opened from
631sa6319c, sold between 621sc and 64c, clos
ing at 6312c-with the gain already nell
toned. Cash wheat was easy, whilst
trading was in progress, but the nominaf
close was strong with the futures
Corn was dull and heavy. The weak
ness of wheat apparently acted as a drag
on prices, but the improvement in thar
grain failed to perform any good The
trade was in a decidedly lethargic state
no business that could be classed as large
or important being transacted May corn
opened at 295sc. sold between 293lc and
29l4Q29ssc, closing at 291zG295sc-jhc un-
der Saturday. Cash corn was AJ1sc per
bushel lower.
The weakness of the other grains fur
nished sufficient motive for a declining
tendency on the part of oats The late
recovery of wheat did not avail anything
toward causing a rally, the close being
with loss of Ac from Saturday Cash
oats were AQ1ac per bushe lower
ProVisions-BetWeen the weakness of
grain and the firmness of hogs il was
difficult for product to decide A middle
course was finally adopted, prices ruling
fairly steady and closing PIC lower for
January pork, PIC higher for January
lard and unchanged for January ribs
Leading futures ranged as follows:
Opening. Highest. Lowest. Closing.
