CHICAGO. ILL. October 2-Wheat re-
gained some of Yesterdays loss to-day.
Appearances did not augur favorably for
the bull element during the morning, but
about the middle of the session things
underwent a change, and where nothing
but weakness had reigned there arose
better and firmer zone. New YORK was
firm, and led this market in the advance.
Orders from that city TO buy were hume.

been on the mend for time reports
that private advices from France stated
that seeding was delayed by drought
were circulated. Damage to the Argen-
tine crop was also talked OF. New YORK
