THE CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
Weakness in Wheat n Result of the
stock Panic.

CHICAGO, May 9-The panic in the
stock market extended to wheat and a
decline of almost cents resulted. That
there was not further loss is due prob
ably to the light holdings, as speculation
in it has been exceedingly small for some
time. There was fairly good recovery
in the last hour on shorts covering. Liv-
erpool was comparatively steady, ls@tA
lower; Paris was weak, 1@2 centimes
lower, and the private cables report the
damage as exaggerated. Primary receipts
We're considerably less than last year.
Cash sales here, 10000 bushels. Duluth

Corn held surprisingly strong in face of
the weakness in whest. There was scat
tered LIQUIDATION by commission houses
and free selling by local traders in an
ticipation of break in sympathy with
wheat and stocks, but the bull interest
gave the market its support, buying July
and September literally. The May is
held firm by a scattered short interest.
The position of the July delivery is un-
changed. The cash demand was slow.
Oats were active and strong There was
a slight easiness with other grains, but
the market quickly recovered and closed
higher than yesterday. The trade is large
and increasing; the sentiment is bulish

Provisions were affected by the weak
