Special service to The Herald by e. r. Hut

l12 West Third street, Los Angeles.
CHICAGO, Sept. 23.-selIing OF wheat to-
day has been Of an influential sort. Follow
ing early period Of frmness the market
has turned heavy and shows a big decline
from yesterdays top price September is
off 81 from yesterdays tops, and there is
every indication that the leading longs in
this month have marketed very large portion
OF 1t. Cash premiums have been falling at
all centers. Winnipeg in particular, where an
effort has been made to sell for export. with
out avail. Southwestern receipts have been
very light. less than half of last years, but
cash premiums have also fallen off in antici-
patton of heavier receipts next week following
completion of seeding in many sections. North
western receipts closed today and there were
no official reports of receipts today. New
wheat is now being offered freely in Europe,
and the official estimate for Victoria is the
best in many years. Argentine exports for
the week were light, with 100000 bushels estl-
mated against l,O2s,ooo bushels year ago,
Corn has taken on heavy tone Sellns
orders are based on expectation of bulge
following the appearance Of frost In the corn
belt, and they have been enormous, while the
bulge has failed to show. Light frost has ap-
peared in northern Iowa and in Nebraska
heavy frost in South Dakota Several OF the
larger longs have also sold futures here today
because Of the poor shipping call,
Oats have finally weakened with the other
grains, although September quiet and
firm much Of the day. Early buyers report
distribution centers we'll filled with the de-
layed arrivals, and demand for cash oats mere
today has been very poor.

NEW YORK. Sept 2s.-New high records
were again established in the local cotton
market the whole list going above 49, csc with
tremendous enthusiasm the bull side. The
market at the start was steady at gain of
to 80 points from the previous close follow
ing firm cables and on reports of extensive
damage in the south as result of the recent
storh. During the early operations there was
some heavy liquidation and, while prices
showed an upward tendency, the advance Will
be slow Around midday heavy buying de-
veloped and in the afternoon the market went
up by leaps, showing gains of about 80 points
from the low Of the morning, Some conserVa-
tive traders seem to think that the trade SIT
uation does not Justify such high prices, but
the crop outlook is still bullish.

Wrecks the Hallway.

After the excitement had quoted down
the police entered the building. They
found that the hallway of the second
floor had been wrecked, and great hole
had been torn In the floor so that one
standing near the rent could get good
view of the rear of the barber shop
and the hallway on the first floor. AL
though the building was badly damaged,
no one had been injured.
An attempt to burn the same building
was made about two weeks ago. Oil
was poured through the hall and stairs
and streamers of oil-soaked paper ran
from the cellar to the roof The fire
was extinguisned before much damage
was done. but the police decided to keep
a sharp watch on the house.
