GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago. Sept 7.-Official predictions OF
frost in the Canadian northwest was the
chief stimuant in the wheat market to-
day. At the close December wheat was
5sG%c higher. Corn was up CSC to &c.
Oats were sc lower Provisions were I'M
changed to 2ikc higher.
A steady feeling prevailed at the open
ing of the wheat market. The market at
Liverpool failed to reflect the full ad-
vance made on the local board yesterday,
but offerings here were few and the de-
mand good.
American seaboard advices to the eff
feet that foreign acceptances were light,
while Montreal declared that everything
offered there had been snapped up. The
market strengthened rapidly on the pre-
dictiOn of the frost in the northwest and
prices ruled firm throughout the re-
mainder of the day. Trade was not heavy
and many operators seemed disposed TO
December wheat opened unchanged to &c
higher at S1.001s to S1.O0S4; sold between
81 O0L and $1017s, and closed strong at
s.. O11sd1.01A.
Clearances of wheat and flour were
equal TO $4,000 bushels Primary re
ceipts were $50 900 bushels against 715,000
bushels on the same day last year. Min
ceipts OF $50 cars against 329 cars last
week and 5.265 cars one year ago.
The strength of wheat and unfavor-
able crop reports from Iowa Nebraska
and Kansas made a strong corn market
throughout the day. The demand for
cash corn was good and the offerings
were light. Late bullish influences af-
fecting the market were predictions of
frost in Canada, and the Iowa state crop
report, which estimates the crop this
year at Is. 500. 900 bushels against $4,000. 900

CLOSE.

New York, Sept. THE speculative
movement in stocks was disposed to mark
time today Prices moved suggishly and

London was partly responsible for the
dullness. The financial district was IN
clined to wait the outcome of the New

natural tendency to realize profits on the

DAYS. The official denial of yesterdays
Tumors of an intended distribution of

terday's speculative enthusiasm, as these
rumors were main incentive to the

The bank statement also failed to show
the expected gain in cash, the decrease

estimates of a gain Of 100000. Loans
also showed small expansion, the net
result being TO reduce the surplus re
