DOWN WITH A RUSH.
Wheat Falls Almost 8 Cents Today
A Rush to Sell.

Chicago. oct. 22.-Almost cents a
bushel was clipped OF the price of
wheat today. December, which closed
yesterday at 751sc finished today at
7O1kc It is not often the price has such
a sensational sudden collapse
Stop loss orders were in the hands OF
every commission man who had Gus
toners long on wheat and when a de-
cline came early today it caught the
most Of these. It was practically inn
possible to follow exactly the stop loss
orders at any given figure and the re-
suit was an almost unanimous rush to
sell.
The closing fifteen minutes on change
We're marked by scenes of almost IN
paralleled excitement In that brief
period the price of December option,
which had been tumbling around 1910
1880, in an uncertain fashion for some
time fell to 7OHc, the low point of the
day. Most of the late decline occurred
within a space of five minutes.
Liquidation had been going on on
large scale all day. The fact that Ar
mOur was Offering large lots OF cash
wheat was construed as meaning that
there was no immediate prospect OF
an Improvement in the money market
About I o'clock Cudahy's wheat began
to go over. 1t was the last straw. In
a. minute the wheat pit which had been
lively enough before, was in a perfect
pandemonium.
Wheat was thrown on the market in
a. perfect deIuge. From 70 cents to Y,
which drop occurred IN almost less
time than it takes to chronicle it, it
was impossible to sell a bushel. Down
the price went until 71Ac had been
reached. Then a short breathing spell
occurred. The market quoted down for
an instant and the price rallied to a
quarter of cent though no support
was given in the meantime. But it was
the calm before the storm.
Away it went again and in the clos
ing minutes the market was in a per
feet panic. No one wanted to buy. ev-
cry one wanted to sell and a minute be
fore the closing December was offered
