Chicago, Sept. WHEAT-Although
we had a weak and lower opening in
wheat today, the close shows decided
advance and holders still continue strong
in their views. The northwest situation
is still the factor. Continued rains with
decreases made daily in estimates on their
crop The foreign markets, while not
showing the strength that our home mar
kets do, are expected to pick up very
quickly. AcceptanceS over night from
abroad were large and our firm closing
will undoubtedly be reflected there.
Toward the close of the session the north
west became large buyers in this mar
ket. advancing prices into new ground on
this upturn. The situation warrants still
higher values.
CORN-Corn has shown easier tend
ency with a, small volume of business
The cash demand for immediate ship
ment was good while anything beyond
was unworkable. Sales footed up to 200
600 bu. Country acceptances have grown
little larger past few days.
QATS-Oats were slow: Trade very
light with small fluctuations. Cash de-
mand has been small.
PROVISIONS-The provision trade has
been light and seemingly concentrated in
the demand from shorts. more especially
for October lard. which shows an adj
vance of 1712c today. Hog receipts were
light, $4,000 We still think there is large
outstanding short interest in this product.

Ac to 7sc lower at 1880 to 761kc today,
longs being inclined to take profits be-
cause Liverpool showed no response to the
advance here yesterday. Another cause
was the fact that the weather in the
northwest failed to live up to the signal
service prediction of rain Northwest
markets were strong, however, and this
offset other conditions to such an extent
that October rallied to 777zc Local re-
ceipts were $50 cars, 20 of contract grade.
Bradstreet's report of an increase in the
worlds visible of 5,118000 bu. caused con-
siderable selling, but the offerings were
well taken. When the attempt was made

rose sharply. October touched 77slc and
