GRAINS LOWER ON
CHICAGO MARKETS
Staples Close at Loss After
Early Rally - Provisions
Down with Hogs.

Chicago, Oct. 6.--Notwith standing
that wheat at one time to-day showed
substantial upturn, the bears had
the advantage during most Of the ses-
sion. Prices closed weak, &c to sc
under last night. Other leading staples,
too, all suffered net decline-corn sc
to q lc, oats l20 sc to sc, and pro-
visions DC to SOC.
Domestic and Canadian stocks Of
wheat were figured as amounting to
nearly full l00,000,000 bushels, which
is more than 100000 bushels in ex-
cess of the corresponding figure a year
ago. 1t was after the announcement of
this fact that the market took de-
cided downward slant, from which
there was no important reaction. Dis
appointment in regard to fresh export
business counted also against the bulls.
II was asserted that the demand from
Great Britain and france had been
well satisfied for the time being, and
that only Italy and Holland were active
as transatlantic bidders.
Mills northwest of here we're said to
have offers for immense quantities Of
flour, including single lot of 100000
barrels. 1t was noticed, however, that
later OIL there were numerous orders
here from the Northwest TO sell wheat.
Corn gave way under predictions
that the government report tomorrow
would indicate an increase of 50,000,00O
bushels in the yield this season In
oats. as in other grain, sentiment was
chiefly adverse to the bulls. Export call
was lighter than for several days.
Lower prices for hogs carried down
provisions. A contributing influence
was the slowness of the cash demand
for meats.
Range OF prices:
