REPORTS SET BACK
PRICE OF WHEAT.
Chances of Opening of OAR
danelles Enlarged and
Realizing Resulted

Chicago, September 9.-Bearish con-
structons placed on the government crop
report gave setback today in the price
OF wheat and so, too. did uncertainty in
regard to war developments In the Bal
kans. The market closed unsettled, ass1

and December at 154iac; corn lost 1sa2c
and oats &c to %G1c. In provision the
outcome ranged from Soc decline to a rise
of 20c
Weakness showed itself in the wheat
market as soon as trading began and
rallies at no time allowed the bears to
assume more than temporary control.
1t was contended by many dealers that
the government crop figures did not
fully confirm extreme low estimates
which had been made by some of the
leading crop specialties. Besides no adj
vices we're at hand telling OF any fresh
progress by the Bulgarians against the
Rumanians and there was a consequent
disposition to believe that chances of a
reopening of the Dardanelles were some-
what enlarged. Realizing sales by hold
ers increased as the session wore on and
resulted during the last Is minutes In
the sharpest price break of the day.
Objection to carrying open risks over
until Monday was emphasized at the
finish by reports from Winnipeg that
threshing returns in Canada we're turning
out much better than had been expected.
Temporary rallies in the wheat market
were based chiefly on assertions that the
substantial failure of the spring crop in
the Dakotas and Minnesota left three
states only 2S,0o0,0OO bushels surplus as
against 22O00,000 bushels last year. No
such situation, it was said, was ever
known before in the northwest and
seemed to imply likelihood that Min
nea polls millers would require more than
70, 100000 bushels from unusual sources.
1t was added that country millers in the
three states named would also require
equally large amount from outside.
Corn was depressed mainly by the rela-
lively bearsh showing Of the govern
ment crop report as compared with pri-
vate forecasts.
Oats suffered too from erronerous pre-
dictions which had been current regard
ing the contents of the Washington re-
port
Provision averaged lower with hogs.
The declines were only offset In part by
the government announcement that stock
| hogs on feed we're 3.S per cent less nu-
merous than year ago.

been decidedly lower. In the last hall
