CHICAGO, October Fresh de-
.clines in the wheat market today re-
suited from scattered liquidation by
ton was the chief bearish factor. On
the other hand. there was gossip OF
a large foreign order for wheat at
the seaboard. Opening prices. which
varied from the same as yesterdays
finish to IN lower. with December
were followed by a material setback
all around.
Corn dropped to the lowest prices
yet for the December delivery. Large
receipts and favorable weather count
ed against the bulls. After opening at
" decline to u advance. with Decem-
Der 9lN to 92h, the market rallied a
little. but then dropped lower than be-
fore.
Oats were easier with corn, starting
u to y off, December 56h to 564
and showing but slight power to re-
cover.
Higher quotations on hogs gave
firmness to provisions.
Subsequently, heavy selling by COM
mission houses with northwestern
connections led to increased depres-
sion of wheat values. The close was
unsettled. 3Za6A net lower, with De-
cember 11ka2.11A, and March 2.07.
