Chicago Grain and Provisions.

CHICAGO, Oct. 9.-Dulness again pervaded Board of Trade markets today. Early prices were lower but frmness developed later in the day, December wheat closing 1ac higher December corn %Gkc higher and oats Ac higher. January provisions closed from shade to 71sc higher.
 Wheat started weak on favorable weather in the Northwest and Southwest. There was fair commission house buying throughout the en- in outside markets and small local receipts and the close was strong. December opened a shade to hc lower at 6sAaes% to SeS, sold at t & osA at 6e%@7o. the high point of the day. Clear ances of wheat and flour were equal to 43I. 900 bushels. Primary receipts were I,o89. 900 bushels, compared with l,I7o, 900 bushels a year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth reported re- ceipts of 745 cars. which with local receipts of e3 cars, of contract grade, made total receipts for the three points of S38 cars. against eo4 cars last week and i,o53 cars a year ago.
 Corn opened easier influenced by lower ca bles and good weather throughout the West The Missouri crop report claimed this year crop would be the largest in the history of the State and some selling developed as a result of this announcement. Good cash demand and builsh sentiment among local traders, how ever, more than counterbalanced these depress- ing factors and there was good buying through out the day Trading on the whole was new ertheless more restricted than of late. Heavy buying of May by local long late in the day caused a strong close. December opened bU Ac to h99sc lower at 4slsa4sH After sell ing at 48c the market took an upward turn and the latter part of the session was strong. The close was at the top at 4s%, a gain of A@19c Local receipts were 60 cars, with 6 of contract grade.
 Oats again featureess with some sell ing early due to reports of excellent weather. After easy opening some strength developed on local buying and the close was firm. De- cember opened h lower at 321sc,. and sold be tween 32b and 3214, closed at the high point with a gain of Ac. Local receipts. l III cars
 Provisions were easy. influenced largely by further declines in the price of hogs Trade was dull.

THIRTY BODIES FOUND.
Louisville Police Investigating Med
 ical College Methods.

Louisville, Ky, Oct. 8.-Thirty dead bodies were found tonight in a cold stor- age plant located in the rear of an ice cream factory on Eighth Street. The same pipes which were used in congealing the ice cream for table use were con nected up with a small plant in shed in the rear where they kept the bodies cool.
 It was at first thought that the cadav- CTS had been brought here from Indian apolis. but the heads of the several col leges interested in the establishment asserted tonight that the bodies were obtained legitimately by them from the penitentiaries insane asylums and other institutions of the State of Kentucky.
 This morning Chief of Police Gunthec received a letter from the Chief of Po- lice of Indianapolis. inclosing a letter from a woman in Louisville who said she had lived at the place in question and that some of the bodies stolen at Indianapolis had been shipped here and were stored in the shed. Chief Gunther sent two policemen to the scene. They reported that they could not get in the shed without breaking it open. While the Chief of Police was trying to get the per mission of the court to open the building, those having charge of the place sent word to police headquarters that the building was open and the investigation was made.
 The building is a small one and pro- vided with numerous thermometers for the proper observation of the tempera- ture. The bodies were found in box es and most of them were in good state of preservation.
 The establishment is maintained by several Louisville medical colleges. The

 The building is on Eighth Street but he entrance to the place where the bodies were found Is from an alley.

 NEW ORLEANS, Oct S.-Liverpool was very disappointing. but market neverthe- less only opened 263 points lower and subse- quently eased off 495 points additional when 1t was ascertained that Mir Buston had ca bled Liverpool that the crop prospects in the Atlantics were very good Later it was ru- mored that Mir. Buston had issued a bullish estimate and improvement of 5l6 points from the bottom was established This, how ever was denied by those in a position to know, as they say Mir Buston has not yet his estimate will not be given out until he does. The market notwithstanding ruled steady at the decline, closing with a net loss of 3n ( points the day. Fair weather and rising Temperature continue throughout the belt and advices from the interior indicate a marked Improvement in the crop outlook. It is claimed that if killing frost is delayed until the latter paft of this month the second growth will add materially to the outturn. The character of these advioes, as well as. the report that Mr. Buston had found the crop in the Allan belief in an unusually small crop and the tendency is to increase estimates Much i'm portance is attached to Mir. Buston's views. because his estimates for the three preceding seasons have been practically correct Ills regular estimate. though, will proba bly, not be issued before the latter part of the r5nth 1t ts no doubt due to more favorable crop accounts that European spinners exhibit no Anxiety and continue a-athstic. The con strained condition of finances also unfa- vorabie features. While it Is true all of these factors may succeed in depressing values fur fher still we think well of buying decided breaks with view of realizing on strong Teriods.

THEODORE H. PRICE ON COTTON
He Warns Southern Holders Against
 Estimates.

NEW YORK. Oct. S.-An effort has been made to depress the cotton market today by the circulation of a report that MT A. J, makes an annual trip to the South. will short ly publish estimate of the crop which, it was rumored. was in the neighborhood of l2,- GOO, 900 bales.
 I desire to warn Southern holders of cot ton aga'nst being affected by MT. Buston s estimate. I mean no disparagement of the gentleman himself but it is proper that the trade should understand that he represents a Liverpool clientage. Liverpool has to buy American cotton and it naturally wants to buy it cheaply possible. Whether Mir Bus tons estimate is 10 ooo 900 900, ooc bales will not alter the facts of the case. which are as follows:
 Exports of the season to date are 334, ooo bales larger than during the same period last year Shipments to Northern mills and talk ings of Southern mills are about 200, 900 bales larger than during the same period last year, that notwithstanding an excess in the early receipts of about 56o 900 bales this excess being indicative of a drought, has shortened the crop. The total stocks of cotton at the United States ports and at thirteen of the most important interior towns are only about 20 900 bales in excess of what they were last year.
 This shows that the world needs the cotton and is taking it. They must, in my opinion continue to take 1t, and wiu probably buy more eagerly at cents per pound than at present

 Closed Steady.

NEW YORK, Oct. S.-The cotton market opened barely steady at decline of 25i4 points. Later business increased the decline % o@6 points after which there rally 2 q 4Q8 points on the more active positions with the market finally steady at a net loss of <105 points.
 The early weakness was due to liquidation, Following weak cables, generally fine weather reports and the still unsettled state of af- Fairs in the coal strike region. There was con- siderable buying at the decline on light esti mates as to tomorrows receipts with cover- Ing of short contracts the principal feature on the ground that the market had wthstood an unusual combination of bearish influences bet ter than expected.
 In the afternoon there considerable buying on the reaction theory. There was some Further selling for short account, however, on . belief that bad weather in the cotton belt had been retarding the movement.
 Private weather reports reaching this point It present have a somewhat bullish average. which gave the local situation steady under Some towards the close of the session.
