GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

DETROIT. Sept 24-Close: Bulls
are not satisfied with the way the
wheat market is acting and the bears
are correspondingly confident Dne
trouble is the lack OF outside specula-
ton. which always has bearish In
fiuence. Stocks and the movement OF
wheat are very -heavy-The- American
visible supply is large. and so IS the
worlds visible, while exports from
Russia and the Danube are very heavy.
At home the primary movement is
large although northwestern receipts
are much less than year ago. Absence
OF export demand is a most bearlsh
feature. Liverpool had some realizing
sales on Saturday and closed with a
decline.
All week the market has been filled
with bullish news, but II mas mad little
for an advance on which to do some
selling for another decline.
