Chicago, Sept S.-Among the gos-
sip among the wheat traders last
night sentiment was bearish. They
have set their ideas on the northwes-
tern receipts and with a decline Of
cash premiums and with Duluth sell
ing cargoes at reduced prices, two
being bought to come to Chicago and
one to go to Erie, it was difficult
for them to see anything bullish in
the situation, and they were surpris~
ed at the fault Of Saturdays finish.
b The point made by the bears was
: the discount of almost 10 cents on
,durum wheat at Duluth as compared
with MOI 4 northern and the slowness
OF the demand for it from abroad.
The most bearish' feature in addi

trade and the prediction

commission houses. that business is
likely to- be dull in the speculative
trade for two months, or until the
