Evening Grim Letter.

Chicago, Sept. 5.-A reactionary
trend developed in wheat today which
was natural in view of the recent ad-
vance in prices. The disappointing
Liverpool cables. favorable weather
conditions northwest and in Canada,
with the easier Tone in coarse grains
were all factors aiding the bears while
the demand from the shorts was less
aggressive. Cash demand here good,
but sales were restricted owing to light
offerings. Flour trade reported good.
Latest developments are only empha-
sizing the relative c~heapness in wheat
compared to other grains and while we
look for good reactions we believe I'LL
timately prices will work materially
higher.
Corn-There has been heavy profit
taking today which has eased the mar
ket a little, although there has been
good buying on the setbacks. There is
no change in the genera situation and
the prospects for enormous feeding re-
pulrements Of all the available corn at
nigh prices are extremely good. We
advise a cOnservatively bullish posi-
ton on corn believing in higher prices
Oats followed the lead Of other
grains and worked lower. The decline
was not unexpected as prices have had
a radical advance. Sales of 1000, 900
bushels oats reported last two or three
days and with this demand continuing
believe any decline viii be TEMPORARY.
