SATURDAYS BEARIsH CROP REPORT
THE LEADING INFLUENCE.
Efect-Provisions Hold Firm and
Close at Gains.

CHICAGO, Oct. 12.-Unresponsive cables
and bearish report caused weakness in
wheat to-day, and December closed at a
loss of CSC. Corn was 1c lower. Oats were
off 7sc, but provisions were firm, closing
from sc to 171sc higher.
The sentiment in the wheat pit was de-
cidedly favorable to the bears, and the news
in general had a depressing influence. For
eign markets did not respond TO the advance
here Saturday, and this fact, with the gov
ernment crop report issue Saturday show
ing a larger yield than generally expected.
caused lower prices at the start, December
being down Is@Ac to AGasc, at 7S7sc to 79c.
There was little disposition to buy, and,
with outside markets more or less depressed.
the market here showed signs of demoral-
ization, with trading spasmodic. After sell
ing at 791sc, December started downward,
and, with the exception Of slight rallies at
different times. the trend was toward a
lower level. After selling down TO 7sssQ
7sikc December closed sc lower, at 7sikq
7SSsc Clearances OF wheat and flour were
equal to 273, 900 bu. Primary receipts were
1,334, 600 bu, against 1.756,000 bu year ago.
Minneapolis and Duluth reported receipts OF
934 cars, which, with local receipts OF lbo
cars-one of contract grade-made a total OF
1,0e9 cars, against 1,2o7 last week and 1,452 a
year ago.
Corn ruled weak with wheat and partly
on the bearish crop report There was
heavy selling at the outset, with provisions
interest leading. Later the market steadied
on a fair commission-house demand, but
toward the end of the session support was
lacking and prices again declined. After
selling between 44ikc and 45ssc, December
closed 1c lower, at 4issQ44s4c. Receipts were
351 cars. 22 of contract grade.
Oats declined with other grains. with sell
ing by commission houses and local longs
the main feature. One of the causes for the
selling pressure was the bearish crop re-
port but the weakness in other grains was
| the main influence. December ranged De-
tween 37m311sc and 3Sc, closing with a loss
of &c. at 37i4c. Receipts were 25i cars.
Smaller receipts of hogs with higher prices
| at the yards were factors in creating hrm
| tone In provisions, and although the weak
ness in corn had some effect, prices were
we'll maintained. Trading was quiet
| throughout the day. The close was firm,
with January pork 1212c higher, at sl207la,
| lard up 171ec, at 1856, and ribs 54f1.c higher,
at Sc. 40. -
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
175 cars; corn. 400; oats, 225; hogs. 13,VO head

of Markets Elsewhere.

UNION STOCKYARDs, INDIANAPOLIS, Oct.
2-Cattle-Receipts. 50o shipments small. The
receipts of cattle to-day were fully equal to the
average on Monday, and a much better class
of stock was represented than usual at this time
in the week; in fact, there were good
some time past. AS indicated in the conditions
at the close OF last week there very salts
factory demand for good fat cattle. and all that
answered that description sold rather promptly
at fully steady prices compared with those pre-
vailing for equal kinds at the close of last week.
There were very few dealers who would admit
that there was any quotable improvement in
prices for any class OF stock, but il was eyi-
dent that all were very well satisfied with the
sales. The best demand for choice steers
weighing from 1,20o to 1900 lbs, and they can
be sold to little better advantage than heavier
or lighter cattle. Sales to-day included 1880
to 131O-lb steers at So 30G5 s5 and several loads
weighing between l. $50 and 1900 lbs sold at S. %
There were hardly enough female butcher cattle
on the market to establish the actual conditions
existing by representative sales, but it was gem
orally believed that the best COWS and heifers
would have sold at least at steady prices IL was
observed that there was very little demand for
heavy cattle in any department., and il is ex-
lected there will be slow outlet for the class
of stock not thick enough for butchers and not
receipts in certain other markets to-day were
not quite up TO the estimate, and this bv some
is considered favorable feature. Quotations:

RICE WILL CASE.
Albert Il. Patrick Seeking to Reverse
Probate of One Document.

ALBANY, n. Y, Oct. 12-Argument was
made in the Court of Appeals to-day I'm the
matter of the will of William Marsh Rice
and the probate of which Albert T. Patrick,
convicted of the murder of Rice is fighting
to reverse. The respondent is John d. Bar
tine, one of the executors of the probated
will, who represents more particularly the
William M. Rice Institute for the Advance
ment OF Literature, Science and Art, of
Houston. Tex, a proposed memorial to Mr..
Rice to which he bequeathed the bulk of his
estate. Mr.. Bartine was represented to-day
by William B. Hornblower while Patrick,
the appellant, was represented by John G..
Tomlinson, Max j. Kohler and Edgar J..
Kohler.
The appeal is from the decision of the APP
pellate division of the Supreme Court, sus-
tanning that of Surrogate Fitzgerald i'm rec
ognizing the will bearing the date of Sept.
26. 1896. and repudiating as transparent
forgery the instrument dated June 80, 1900,
put forward by Patrick. Rice died on Sept.
%. 1900, aged eighty-four. leaving an estate
estimated at 100000. In the Patrick will
but s250OO0 was bequeathed TO the proposed
Rice Institute. and the bulk of the rest OF
the estate to Patrick, who declared that he
held a certain secret trust from Mr. Rice.

H0gs-Receipts, 200: shipments. loo The
receipts OF hogs, although not liberal show a
very good increase over week ago and a year
ago. The quality generally was satisfactory on
account of weight. In fact. practically ali the
hogs here averaged from lf0 TO 20J lbs and there
fore there no occasion for a wide spread i'm
prices The market opened with quite good
demand from shippers and. although there was
really strong competition from local packers
the supply too large. and with rather
favorable reports from other places the market
was active at a general advance OF at least I0c
in prices those prevailing at the close of
last week In fact. IL Is possible that certain
sales were around i5c higher than equa! kinds
sold last Saturday Whatever the advance might
have been there was healthy feeling in the
market and il did not take long to exhaust the
supply Sales included ls7 to 2ss-lb hogs at s5S5,
and l56 TO 1fo-lb kinds at S5.S2ix. Most nf the
hogs here averaged from i59 to 1Se lbs, and sold
at $3.50. A few sales were reported at s5.77Iz.
and loads of hogs were reported below that
price. On account of the uniform weight and
quality however allowance should be made for
less desirable hogs, which doubt would have
sold lower than any prices reported to-day. Re-.
ceipts in nearly al markets to-day are below ex-
pectations and this il said TO indicate that
