merly of Keokuk, claiming damages in
the sum of $4,000. Whiteside &
Rutherford of Kahoka and Hughes &

Daily Grain Letter,

CHICAGO, H., Oct 13.-Wheat-
The statistical situation in wheat is
bearish beyond doubt, with an i'm
mense crop of 725,O0O,0OO bushels,
which offers a considerable amount
for export and only small part of it
Is being taken. Russian shipments,
which continue large, show no signs
OF falling off, and in another three
months the new Argentine crop will
be available. Receipts here today 81
cars, year ago 126. Liverpool closed
sd lower to sd higher. Clear and
cold weather in all directions this
morning, no rain in the southwest
where it is needed, and Complaints
have been coming from there. North
west markets NC to sc higher, over
the holiday. Bullish sentiment pre-
walls in all quarters among speculat
ors and this offsets the bearish sta
tistical situation. There was big
scattered trade in wheat at the open
ing. Valentine was said to have
bought over 100000 bushels Decem.
Der wheat this morning. RankiD
bought 100000 Bradstreets worlds
visible increased 6,SOO,0o0, against an
increase last year of S,492,000. Man
ipulation is possible in December de-
livery, the situation is very mixed,
but there seems little reason to take
the bull side of May wheat, and the
foreign and domestic statistical stu
alton certainly justifies the short sales
of this delivery. We look for scalp
ing market for the present.
Corn-Liverpool close unchanged
to sd higher. Receipts here today
352 cars, against277 last year. Every
thing in the immediate situation is
bearish on corn. Clear cold wealth
er all over the belt favors the crop
situation, with prospect of very
early movement. The volume of corn
moving to market is heavy and likely
to be a depressing factor. Contract
stocks $4,000, decrease of 100000.
We still feel bearish on corn and look
for materially lower prices. We would
sell both December and May on all
hard spots.
Oats-Receipts here today S12, cars
year ago, sos. Weather still favor
able for marketing. No marked in
crease in the movement can be ex-
pected for some months Contract
stocks are in strong hands and are
slowly decreasing. Neither the deal
er or the farmers are disposed to sell
at the present time. The December
delivery is strongly held, and with a
light movement and we'll manipulated,
we believe the big bulls will be able
to bring about materially higher
level for the December, while on the
other hand there is nothing to bull
the May option on.

The police have descriptions of them
