obstacles to tho circulation Of mir

the narrow, sunless canyons Of New

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE
Fufure Grain and prnri.ion.

CHICAGO, Oct. 10.-Dry weather talk ap-
parently supplanted the war scare as mar
ket factor in the wheat pit today, and brought
out an active general demand, which resulted
in a strong market the greater part of the day
The market opened easy, with prices H@1sc
lower, owing TO an advance in the price Of con
soils and TO moderate decline in the price of
wheat at Liverpool. Before the end of the first
half hour the market had recovered on buying
by some of the leading traders who it is said
were alarmed by the continued absence of rain
in the winter wheat section. As trading pro-
gressed prices made additional advances De-
cember touched $1.01s and May sl.O45s an
advance of more than cent from the low point
The market closed strong and near the best
marks for the day.
The market was generally quiet, but
firm. owing to the strength of wheat, which
offset the favorable weather conditions for the
maturing of the crop. The market closed
firm at about the best of the day.
Extreme sdullness prevailed in the oats pit
but the market was firm in sympathy with
wheat and At the close prices were Il
lower to u s@Ac higher.
An advance of Sl.65 per barrel In the price of
October pork was the feature of an otherwise
dull market in provisions. The close in general
was Off 12h@1715c

At no time during the week Just ended was
there any marked scarcity OF anything in the
egg or dairy produce line. business being dull
and Hstless during the whole six days, with
retail tradesmen refusing to take any more
than was absolutely necessary to supply their
customers. The consumption OF fresh eggs was
greatly curtailcd by the high cost of the up
per grades. while liberal Withdrawals from
age goods. There more than enough fresh
butter hand to meet all requirements, and
receivers who had been cleaning up their
floors every day week or so back were carrying
more or less of surplus. New California
cheese showed some frmness for while, but
were irregular. The only noteworthy change in
the quotations yesterday was an advance of
1c a dozen in fresh first eggs, and the only
transaction under the call on the exchange
was sale of 10 of fresh extra butter
at the quotation
Receipts were 20, 900 lbs butter, Sc 700 lbs
