| OMAHA. Oct. l6, 1912.
| Lhere will be further depression in
| wheat prices this week beyond doubt. as
the market OF late has depended much
on cable news and the Liverpool market
Is decidedly weak, Foreign advices state
| that there is less apprehension regard
ing the Balkan outlook. Grain men have
| suggested each day that the domestic
situation Is bearish, considered independ-
ent OF the foreign political news IL
| there is no fresh disturbance abroad, it
IS reasonable to expect that there will be
renewal OF bear operations I'm the wheat
traoe. The very heavy northwest move
ment is the chief factor. Cash wheat iac
| lower
Weather conditions all over the corn
belt are very fine. This will be on the
| side or sellers of the new crop months.
| Some traders advise selling pressure in
the December be limited on breaks, while
| the enormous crop figures suggest heavi-
ness and lower prices in the end. The
action of the market will depend largely
on the character of the offerings by corn
| raisers and prospect of the railroads abil-
ity to move the corn to market. Cash
corn, 1ec to 1kc lower.
The stubbornness in the oats trade Is
surprising in view of the record breaking
! crop and large receipts. Receivers say
shipping points must move oats to make
| room for corn. Cash oats, unchanged.
