Chicago, Sept. 12.-Just a fash Of
strength showed itself today in wheat
Then the market gave way under SELL
ing by large concerns and private wire
houses. The early upturn resulted from
higher ca bles from Liverpool. Rains
that had put the soil in good condition
for fall blowing in the United States
furnished the incentive for most OF
the selling. The opening was unchanged

Active inquiry by exporters led af-

Chicago, Sept. 12.-Wheat-For the
first time in several weeks wheat has
acted independently of corn, advancing
hill
There was little pressure on the market
at any time and on an early break cash
houses took the offerings. Cash de-
mand has been very good. Sales of
$50, 900 bushels, mainly to exporters,
were reported.
Corn-The average loss for corn to-
day was about u cents for the day.
The selling was INDUCED in quite freely
at the opening on account of the better
rains ttruout the southwest and large
portions Of the corn belt. While there
was some reaction from this free SELL
ing, the market was not at any time
strong and there seemed to be a dispo-
sition on bulges for holders with good
profits to take them. The best sellers
Of yesterday, however, covered on the
decline and the market is left without
that strengthening influence. Primary
receipts are heavier than a year ago
and shipments are lighter. Country
points advise that shipments are linn
tied to some extent by the car supply,
but the country shows disposition to
sell corn at present levels. Cash de-
mand continues good. Prices today are
about X cent lower than yesterday.
Outside markets ranged lower and SEN
tinent except on the part Of leading
bulls is considerably less excited than
for some time.
Oats-The fear Of depressing inhu-
ence from Canadian oats was alayed
today by a statement showing that
Canada was never a free exporter Of
oats and that this year was likely to
prove no exception. The market was
steady altio largely Of local character
and price changes were slow. Premiums
OF cash oats advanced about Il cent
with demand good. Local arrivals are
not heavy for this season of the year,
being about one-h half or two-thirds as
large as last year.
ProvisionS-A further decline in the
hog market brought a lower opening in
provisions and decline from the OPEN
ing price was caused by selling of
houses with foreign connections. Com
mission houses Were fair buyers and the
closing was steady at some reaction
from the low.
