PRICE OF WHEAT IS
 GENERALLY LOWER Better Crop Reports Are Cause of the Weakness
  MARKET RULES HEAVY Corn Is Quiet Owing to Holiday Feel
 
MARKET RULES HEAVY
Corn Is Quiet Owing to Holiday Feel ing While Traders Expect Decline. Oats Close Lower and Pro-
 visions Are Unchanged

Chicago, September 3.-Aecording to an expert estimate here today the total crop of wheat in the United States Is 100000 bushels larger than the government indi- cated in the August report. Influenced by the new figures, the market closed with a weak tone at net decline of 9sd1hc to 5sc. The end of trading left corn at last nights levels at ss01ac be- low; oats unchanged to 1s9A down, and provisions at the same prices as "A hours previous, or varying to 15c gain.
 Large spectators in wheat attempted to stampede shorts because of the holi- day Monday, but the moveable short interest had apparently covered rather freely yesterday and was more disposed to sell today. Features of weakness aside from the bearish forecast as to the gov ernment report were prospects of larger receipts northwest next week, heavy worlds shipments threatening and the fact that purchases In Oklahoma and Texas the last two days were said to be the most extensive this season.
 Barring little show of strength which appeared at the start and was due to light deliveries the market ruled heavy all day and closed easy at nearly the bottom figures reached. December ranged from $1os1l to s1.OS% and fin- ished ssG1kc to ssc off at s1. osA to s1 1osA9 1.O33s.
 Corn traders were looking forward to a liberal run of arriving car lots next week. Demand was slim, especially from the east. December kept between 57%c and Esac and closed unchanged to a shade lower at 571s015S9sc. The cash mar ket was weak. No. yellow closed at 59kc.
 Primary receipts of oats for the week showed big falling off. They were still far ahead of last year. The market was inclined to be easy with other grains December fuctuated from 36Ssc to Sssbc and closed a shade to B@Ac down at s69sd361kc.
 Packers bought provisions, though in limited way, chiefly lard and ribs. In consequence pork wound up unchanged to 15c dearer; lard at 714c to 15c advance and ribs unchanged to a gain of 7hc to 10c

Dry Goods

New York. September 3.-Many of the large cotton goods houses in the dry goods market were closed during the day so that the market presented holiday appearance. A number of firms, how ever, opened their doors for business and these procured good amount of orders through the malls. The house trade was good with the jobbers The demand for linen is strong. Ordets are coming in for fall and spring delivery. Burlaps values were firmer on the producing markets and holders of spot goods did fairly good volume of business.

From the London Times.
 .'At only one village had I any diff culty We were marching late in the dark and I had sent my groom on ahead to find me an inn, as he had often done before. He entered the village and find- ing the large inn door closed he called out to the people to open it. But his Pekin speech is not easily understood in Kansu and no one answered him. Then he knocked, and, to his dismay. the crazy door fell down. Immediately there was a row. The innkeeper and his vociferous spouse shouted out their wrongs. Every one came into the street to hear; the whole village was reused. When I ar rived 1t seemed like a demonstration in my honor As Is the custom, dozen people together told me what had hap pened. I soon satisfied everyone by first examining the damage and then paying compensation in full. I paid 100 cash (rather more than two-pence), and my generosity was approved. The structure thus damaged reminded one of the jerry built houses familiar to students in Edin- burgh, where 1t is on record that lodger once complained to his landlord that the ceiling in his room had fallen down. But how do you account for thatY asked ths landlord. Somebody in the next flat sneezed,' replied the lodger."
