GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

DETROIT, Sept. 23.-Closing. Rains
In the winter wheat belt are looked
upon as bearish. because they make a
winter wheat possible for next year.
but at present they are expected to
take the attention OF farmers of the
marketing OF wheat, and any decided
reduction Ia the movement would have
bullish effect. 1t Is not believed that
receipts will fall of much. because line
elevators at country points have plenty
OF wheat TO shio in even the farmers
quit selling for the present. The De-

lost some OF the advance.
