the rise for time, but in the afternoon

Chicago. Sept. 4.-The sentiment In
wheat to-day was quite the reverse of
what It was Yesterday. Values yielded
to selling rather than to buying, lower
quotations being established. Local
operations was the only ones of any
volume and they by no means excess
sive. One professional scalped in mode
rate sized quantities. but the average
of the transactions was extremely light
Corn traders were unable to evolve
from the situation anything in the shape
of an argument for higher prices, and
finding wheat less strong than yester-
dav were. naturally. induced to try the
selling side. but only moderately, there
being but few on hand to help the mar
ket.
The situation in corn from q business
standpoint was reproduced in oats and
the tone was likewise very similar. The
nndertone was extremely weak, how
ever. oats traders expressing conf
dence coming from grain.
