CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Features of the Trading and Closing
Prices on Board of Trade.

Prtce9 on Bobru Oh EAuts
CHICAGO. Nov. 9-Ldberal primary re-
ceipts offset the higher prices for wheat
at European grain centers and caused a
steady tone in the local market at the close
final quotations being Unchanged to Ssg1sc
higher. Corn and provisions were weak
The wheat market was nervous all day
and the volume of trade was not large.
There was a little firmness manifested at
the start, owing to the strength of the
European markets., but selling by elevator
interests soon caused moderate declines.
This selling was largely due to a heavy
movement, especially In the northwest and
and to an absence of any export demand
except for Durum and Manitoba wheat.
The market, however, at no time showed
any great weakness, support by several
of the leadine balls having a, tendency, to
check any general selling. Continued dry
weather in the Ohio valley and other sec
lions of the Writer wheat belt inspired con-
siderable buying. The market rallied from
the low point late in the day on covering
by shorts and prices at the close were un-
changed to Ssahc higher, with December
at SI.Ol% and May at A.O6h41.0Sh. Clear
ences Of wheat and flour were equal to $685.
600 bushels. The amount OF bread stuff on
ocean passage decreased 1,2l6,OoO bushels.
Corn prices declined more than cent To-
ment report, Which estimated this years
crop to be 50.000.000 bushels In excess OF
that last year, and which placed the quail
ity of the crop at S,9 compared with BIS
for fhS same time on the previous crop.
The market closed easy, at net losses or
LG%c to %Ghc. Final quotations on De-
cember were at 6i%c and on May at 6l%e.
Oats were firm nearly all day. Cash
oats at the sample tables were steady TO
&c higher. The market closed firm with
prices up VIC to as. with December at 4SAc
and Nav nj f50MM50Nc.
The proyision market was weak all day
and at the close. prices were a shade to

AGAINST THE RAILROADS.
Two Sweeping Decisions Are Given m
 St. Louis.

St. Louis August 24.-Two sweeping opinions. noteworthy in that the de- cisions in the lower courts were re- versed in full in each instance, were handed down by the United States court of appeals here today sustaining the position of the government against the railroads in the matter of the safety appliance law of Congress. The cases decided were those of the government against the Atch ison, Topeka and Santa Fe company and of the government against the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad company. By tn ese decisions the court of appeals abrogates the com mon law rules of reasonable care that have heretofore governed, and behind which the railroads sought helter, and upholds in full the acts of Congress, which, the opinoins hold. now totally supplant the common law rules. 1t is believed the decisions will have wide effect on railroad suits at law in the future.

BOIL WEEVlL DISCUSSION.
Farmers Learn That the Cotton Pest
 Is Here To Stay.

Natehez Miss. August 24.-Three ses- sions of the Mississippl-Louisiana Farm CTS institute were held today attended by merchants, bankers and planters of the two states. The Mexican cotton boil weevil was discussed at great length, and while it was conceded the insect was here to stay, for an indefinite period, ev- cry speaker expressed the opinion, based on practical study and experiments in Texas and Louisiana that intensive farm ing and early maturing cotton under thorough and persistent cultivation would overcome the destructive pest and insure a greater yield to the acre than is ob- tained under present methods.
 Among those who participated in the discussion were Governor Noel of this state, H. E. Blakeslee, commissioner of agriculture of Mississippi and J. E. Evans of the United States department 6 agriculture. The institute will con- tinue tomorrow.
