CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, Sept. 6.-Wheat held very steady
during the first hour. although the conditions
were regarded as bearish. Some of the early
transactions were at hc more above the
close Saturday The strength in corn was an
influence to wheat, and besides there was a
good deal of profit taking by shorts. Offerings
were small with the competition sharp and
prices held firm for time. The enormous re-
ceipts in the Northwest were regarded as dis
couraging. The strength with which the mar
ket opened was fairly well maintained until
the visible supply statement was completed.
which showed !, 220, coo bushels increase, COM
pared with 656. 900 bushels decrease the year
before That increase somewhat heavier
than expected and prices dropped on It's re-
ceipt to Nc below the highest point previously
made for December and &c below the top
for September. At the close September was &c
lower and December 1sQAc higher than Sat
urday.
Lower temperatures and reports of killing
frosts in districts strengthened corn
early. The fear that the Government report,
due this week. might not show any deteriora-
ton since August l. however. acted as a par
tial counterweight to the general bulish sur
roundings of the corn pit. December left off
&c higher
Oats followed corn, but did not display as
much strength as did the latter. The close
is unchanged TO &c up for May
The feeling in provisions was very unsettled
house interests sold freely and the market
ruled heavy throughout with the lowest point
of considerable decline current at the close.
Pork declined 121c, lard 22hc and ribs lost
171ec.
The leading futures ranged as follows:
