Chicago, ILL.,, Oct. Wheat: The
market opened fractionally lower and
has ruled heavy throughout the ses-
sion. Local professionals. who have
been endeavoring to advance prices
during the past few days. finding that
they were getting no outside help,
were unloading. The buying was
largely on resting orders in the hands
of commission houses. The seaboard
sent very discouraging advices regard
ing the outlook for export business and
said they were resellers of many car
goes at a fun cent below the cost of
replacing. European conditions seem
to grow more bearish this week, and
we do not believe that home condi-
tions warrant present prices.

Chicago Gossip.

Chicago, Oct. 2S.-Gossip among
wheat traders last night was that there
had been advance enough for the pres

the outside trader was not following
the bulge and the legitimate situation
was unchanged so far as the bears
could see. Even the bulls said they
saw nothing but scalping market.
The Bartlett Frazier buying was said
to be short stuff as was also that by
Darrell and the other commission
houses. 1t was noticeable, however,
that the stock has been taken out of
the pit and a few traders said they
saw evidence of accumulation of May.
