CHICAGO. September 23.-Heavy
selling of wheat took place today, and
carried prices lower. Much of the
selling appeared to. be based on opin-
ions that lull in export business was
foreshadowed. On the contrary, how
ever. foreigners were said to be
making new purchases. Opening
quotations, which ranged from y to 3
lower. with December. 2.34h to 2.34Z,
and March, 2.27 to 2.2s1s, were fol-
lowed by slight further setback,
and then something of a rally.
Lowest prices yet for the new crop
were reached in the corn market.
influence. After opening y to 4-off,
including December at 1.04 to 1.O4N,
the market underwent a further sag.
Oats reflected corn weakness,
starting unchanged to u higher, De-
cember. 59A to so, and then reacting
to well below yesterdays finish.
Provisions were depressed by down.
turns in the hog and grain markets.

Subsequently weakness of coarse
grain tended more or less to offset ex-
port wheat buying that totaled 1,000,-
900 bushels. Wheat closed unsettled, 3
cents net lower to " advance, with De-
cember 2.36A to 2.36A and March 2.27
to 2.27A.
December corn broke to under 81 for
the first time since 1917. September
