SHEEP-Receipts were liberal again this
morning, slXty-nine fresh cars being re-
ported in. This makes the total for the
four days this week BLOOD head. or about
5000 head less than last week. While
these figures look large, they are as a mat

ceipts for the corresponding four days OF
last year.
The fact that feeder buyers cleaned up
such a large proportion of yesterdays re-
good deal of stuff that might have gone

morning. As a result they were free
buyers Of all desirable killers at good,
steady prices. Pretty much everything
that looked good for killing purposes
changed hands quite early in the fore
noon.
Feeder buyers, although they bought very
freely yesterday, cleaning up, everything In
sight, were just as anxious for fresh sup
plies this morning, paying strong prices,

very active, everything offered being

CHICAGO, sept. 23.-Wheat prices de-
clined still lower today under liberal realIz-
ing sales by leading holders. At the close
he net losses were IA sc to l&C. Corn
aud oats followed wheat IN It's
course, but provisions held steady.
Wheat was weak, Several OF the leading
longs sold freely all day, the tOlal sales
of one of the most prominent of them being
estimated at i,UUU,UU bu. Foreign and 40
nestle news was almost entirety in FAVOR
of the bears. The weakness aproad was
due to reports from Australia, asserting
The wheat crop Of that country would be
the largest and OF the best quality ever
harvested. The range for September was
between SL0Sts and SlU5h and lor December
from ~ySsso9SNac to $3.50, At the close prices
were only a trifle ABOVE the lowest point,
September being at SlV5es and December
at eS7sga9e.
Corn was subjected to general selling
pressure all day, owing To the failure of
killipg frostS 10 maIerialize in -the corn
belt. The market closed almost at the
bottom, with prices down 1sqStc compared
with yesterday,
Oats were bearishly affected. September
was relatively firmer than the deferred
months, owing to covering by shorts. Prices
at the close were unchanged to hdssc
lower.
Provisions weakened In sympathy with
the break in grain. At the close prices
were &c lower to 20c higher.
