TODAY'S MARKET REPORTS

Chicago. Oct 3.-CORN-warmer weather
and a prospect that no unreasonable cold
would be experienced for several days had
moderate bearish influence today on corn.
Virtual certainty that a big crop was now
safe and that there would be an ample sup
ply of sound matured commercial quality
seemed to be generally assumed. Estimates,
however, that the yield was 60.000.OOO bush
els less than was expected month ago led
to a rally from early weakness. Opening
quotations which ranged from Nc off to
like advance at $1.19A to $1.191A Deem
Der and $1.16ss May, were followed by a
general down turn and then a reaction
to slightly above yesterdays finish.
Subsequently other experts figured the
yield as 66OO0,O00 bushels short of the
government forecast of a month ago. As
a result, the bulls had an advantage in
the late trading. Prices closed firm, &c
to sc net higher at $1.20 December and
1.16% May.
oATS-Oats held comparatively firm.
rains counted in favor of the bulls and
there was liberal buying on the part of
cash houses.
PROVISIONS-Rea in which yester-
days chief purchasers INDUCED led to a
down turn in provisions. Strength in the
hog market was ignored
On the break, packers were said to ave
given some support, but otherwise there
was comparatively absence of buying.

At the head of the procession was
the twelve piece lodge band from Hol-

tor cars carrying delegates from every
line of nearly 800 Red Men. One of
the most attractive features of the
rade aside from the dress costumes
was the Friendship" float. On the

war colors, was shaking hands with
the white pioneer as token of the
friendship and fraternalism the Red
