CHICAGO, Oct. S.-Surprising strength

Yesterdays sellers scrambled in competi-
tion for light offerings A prominent
miller, who has just returned from
Europe, said that prospects for seeding
abroad were poor, as a result of wire
spread Selling of farmers horses and
teed and incompetent and Inadequate
labor as well as devatation. Merchants
ana millers at Liverpool continue heavy
purchasers of wheat, and consumption
abroad continues on a heavy scale. The
shortage In some countries that are not
being supplied Is becoming acute Cash
sales were $1,000 bushels. Futures closed
2@ to cents higher.
Corn also was strong Cash sales were
55,GO bushels. Futures closed IA cents
higher. Confirmation of enormous ex-
ports of oats here, along with the fact
that there was an overextended short in
terest resulting from Yesterdays late
slump, made that cereal strong. Cash
sales were $4,000 bushels. Futures closed
IL to rs cents higher
provisions were strong Packers and

SUBWAY LOOP UNDER
LOCUST ST. WOULD
INVOLVE MILLIONS
Creation of Avenue | 80 Feet
Wide From Washington
Square to Sixteenth Street
Among Plans Considered.

The EVENING LEDGER places itself on the
firing line, as far as proper public inn
provements 60, but the creation OF a
broad avenue from Washington square
TO 18th street, by the condemnation OF
property for 100 feet north of the build
ing line. is a much more serious PROPOSE
ton than appears upon its face.
If It is determined that the subway
loop can be placed to greater advantage
under Locust street than under Walnut
street: that the conditions underground
are less encumbered by city improve
ments, in the way OF pipes, sewers, ETC.;
that underpinninB Of heavy buildings
found on Walnut street will not be met,
that the open cut method can be used-all
well, we need the subway.
II, however, the chief advantage is to
be an avenue $50 feet wide from Wash
ington Square to Broad street, to he
known as the Locust Gardens" how
ever pleasing it might be to the eye, let
us for a moment count the cost.
PROPERTY WORTH MILLIONS.
In this strip of the eastern end of the
Eighth Ward are approximately 150
properties. large and small. II the line
was run for the northern boundary ez-
actly $50 feet north Of the building line
on the north side of Locust street, as
laid out at present, three large prop
critics would be partly affected, viz:
