WHEAT LOST IN PRICE
NEWS AT CHICAGO SATURDAY FA-
VoRED BEAR SPECTATORS.
Sawed and Finally Closed n
Few Fractions Lower.

CHICAGO. Sept. 19.-The late steady adj
vance of wheat eliminated to-day in such
a general rush for profits that December
closed a shade lower in spite of conditions
that ordinarily would have caused a sub
stantial rise in prices. Corn was similarly
affected, but closed unchanged, as did oats.
Provisions closed from unchanged to &c
higher
Wheat opened strong and again sold ut
SIC for December before the session had
progressed very far, or a full half cent
above yesterdays close. The continuation
of the strength of the market was chiefly
because of higher quotations from Liver
pool. However, New York wired that yes
terdays cabled offers of wheat to the
United Kingdom and continent were not
generally accepted. Another disagreeable
fly in the ointment was the Minneapolis
and Duluth receipts which numbered LBS
cars compared with 1,166 week ago and
1,176 on the corresponding week of last year.
December dropped to 61Ad618c shortly
after the opening, which was at 6l4 611sc.
Then followed the advance to &c under the
influence of strong cables. Beerbohms re-
port on the wheat stocks of the United
Kingdom was a surprise, showing about
35.000,0 900 bushels less than at this time last
year. ms gave new StlinuluS " tie
bull sentiment. But the partial halt IN the
foreign demand ana the OlQ-tlfne theory
that after a sc bulge a reaction was in or
der, and the fact that the longs had hand
some profits to their credit started active
realizing and short selling. After the re-
action from &c to slice the price rose once
more to 617sc and then kept within the
range of 6l1aM61%c until within half an
hour of the close. when it got down to 6l$sc
and could not again be lifted. The closing
price was 61A0613sc.
Corn rather firm and at one time
the leading speculative future sold up &c,
but lost most of it later. The early
strength in wheat helped corn, but it also
followed it somewhat on the down grade.
Frost predictions also had some strength
ening offset. The cash demand continues
fair May opened sc higher. at 25c. adj
vanced TO 251sc, then eased off to and closed
steady at 247sc.
In oats the early market was quiet, but
1t improved later and the aggregate bust
ness was good. There a good demand
both for cash and futures. May opened 1sc
higher at 1880, but eased off later, closing
steady at 191sM1914c.
Provisions We're decidedly inactive. The
influence of steady live stock market was
noticeable, and a slight advance was made
on limited trading. January pork closed &C
higher, at $751;: January lard Csc higher,
at 3.SI12c; January ribs unchanged at 3 45c.
Estimated receipts for Monday: Wheat
200 cars; corn, $50 cars; oats, 290 cars; hogs,
81. 600 head.
The leading futures ranged as follows.

LOCAL GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
A Good Weeks Trade. with Steady
Prices Ruling.

To say that the trade of the week was one of
the largest in volume of any week in the last
six months would be exaggeration, but to say
that it large it is usually on State
fair week would be overstating the matter
There changes in values. Slight adj
vances in prices of dry goods made. Lem
ons, peaches and Irish potatoes and eggs
higher Saturday than in the early part of the
week. Coffees, roasted grades off 1c poul-
try &c and closed weak. Some descriptions of
provisions were a shade lower. but in all
the changes slight, and to speak of the
range of prices being exceedingly low covers
the situation. There are some indications Of
better prices fruits and vegetables in the near
future. receipts are falling of and the market
is more nearly cleared of its daily arrivals each
night than has been the case for some time past.
The quality of apples and OF Irish potatoes com
