WAGNER'S REVIEW
Morning Grain Letter.

Chicago, Oct. 2.-Newspaper senti-
ment is not hopeful as TO permanent
bulges in the grains. Some bear SEN
timent is present at the decline.
II the wheat receipts keep up Deem
Der has a chance TO duplicate its last
low of of 1913. The fiat domestic cash
demand for the grains is evidently
based on the 10 TO 10 per cent reduced
value of United States business due TO
war During the past week a search
light would fail 10 find any war hys-
terra in the pits. The desertion has
been complete. Current factors in
clude high money rates, large grain
receipts, fancy corn prices. high wheat
prices. an overstayed oats market and
a quieter foreign demand.
We believe the next upturn in wheat
will run to 10 cents. II December
wheat gets near 1O4 the market is
liable to see an influential change. On
the other hand. as wheat conditions
are easier now than two or four weeks
