CHICAGO MARKET
The Days Transactions on the Board OF
Trade.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2S.-The Liverpool mar
ket was once again surprise to the trad
| ers here, who looked for it's being quoted
very weak after yesterdays very en-
phatic slump. But on the contrary prices
| from there showed a asd advance by the
| time the session opened. That set Decem-
| Der going at an advance of 4. The first
transactions in that option were made at
from 50 to 69N and inside of half an hour
| the price had risen to 695s. The Northwest
ern receipts were again so heavy that they
| weighed at times on the minds of the
traders like Banquos ghost at the BAN
| Quet on the imagination of Macbeth. Min
neapolis and Duluth reported 1908 carloads
received compared with 965 a week ago
and with 1928 on the corresponding day
| of the year before. To counteract there
| were advices from the northwest that the
| farmers deliveries are rapidly falling off.

that the premium of December over cash
wheat in that market, which few days
ago. was four cents, was down to one
ment was held somewhat in check during
the morning hours by the weak London
and continental cables, by the fact that
New York cleared no wheat and by the
continued closeness of the money market.
But little before noon steady advance
set in. December climbing to 7oN. This
opment of buying orders supposed to come
from Cudahy, whose selling was held to
be in a large measure responsible for yes
terday's break. That he now should turn
buyer was an unexpected development and
caused a sharp rally. The northwest was
also bullish with prices advancing sharply
end making nearly 2 cents advance and
there was good buying here for northwest
account. During the last fifteen minutes
messages from San Francisco of the sale
of three cargoes to Australia started buy
ing anew. December advanced to TN, but
reacted somewhat before the close, final
figures being 707sQ7l cents. Corn was
quiet but firm, being helped good deal by
the stronger feeling in wheat. Oats were
quiet. A firm feeling existed and prices
were higher influenced by the action of
wheat and corn. Provisions were heavy

ON CHANGE
Business Transacted and Prices Paid al
Home and Abroad

NEW YORK, Oct 2S.-The volume Of
business today was only about one-half as
large as on Tuesday, but the market dis
played nervousness thro lghout rejecting
the after effect of yesterdays SCOOP"
The trend of prices was toward a lower
level with fitful and short lived rallies in
tervening. The trading was purely pro-
fessional and the governing influence con-
sisted of pronounced monetary stringency.
Call loans touched IL per cent and al
though per cent rate was subsequently
established, the bulk of loans were at to
Q per cent. The rallies were almost in
every instance attributable 10 covering of
shorts. The severest declines were made
in the forenoon operations and apathy
characterized the afternoon session, al
though prices settled back to the lowest
points at the close. Although the market
fairly well distributed. There was practi-
oally no news having a general bearing up
on prices. Sugar made a slight recovery
from the lowest on an advance of II cent
by the American Sugar Refinery company
in all grades of refined sugars, succeeding
an equal advance earlier In the day in do
general market was helped slightly, SYM
pathetically by the rally in wheat but fell
again on renewed realizations and bear
pressure. Bond prices sagged slightly on
limited offerings The sales We're 5000 900.
Governments were active and generally
firm on transactions of 900. Silver GER
$25 900.
Wheat bulls We're aroused today and
with little effort ran prices up over 2 cents
a bushel December sold at 1875 against 76
last night and May advanced from 70 to
Sl1s The advance was due to light offer
ings, better cables than expected, bullish
crop news and the reports that several
cargoes had been taken in San Francisco
for Australia and Cape Town. There was
extensive buying reported in Chicago for
both north and southwestern account as
well as by foreign houses. This, with the
exceptionally strong cash situation in
Minneapolis and the prediction of light
spring wheat receipts encouraged local
long account purchases. There was some
hesitation but the close was strong. Total
transactions for the day were 4,725,O0O
bushels.
