LATE RALLY IN
WHEAT PINCHES
LOCAL TRADERS

Chicago. Oct 8.-Wheat sold at
. new low on the crop at the OPEN
ing of the board of trade today.
4 The start was unsettled, u cent
lower to &c higher with Decem-
Der $1-0s 20 $1-10, and May $1.131z
to s1141z- General selling of May
by commission houses and of De-
cember by northwest interests
drove prices down.
A rally resulted on evening IN
IN anticipation OF the government
report due late today but when this
Z died down there was lack of sup
port and the heavy undertone took
December to $1.09 and May TO
s113A.
Corn also made new low for
the crop with cash and commits
sion houses on the selling side. De-
cember started at 48K to 49,, and
May at 541s to 54H. At the end Of
the first hour prices were 4SA and
53% respectively.
Oats were off with other grains.
the opening was unchanged to u c
lower with December 33k to 33X
and May 37K. The sag took De-
Gambler to 1880.
Provisions were dull but firmer
in sympathy with an active and
; higher hog market at the yards.
A rapid rally at the close caused
by seaboard buying and reported
sale of two cargoes to India caught
the local professional element in
an oversold condition The final
figures were s1.09 to s109K for De
cember and $1.13A to $1.14 for
May.
The late rally in wheat pulled
corn up only Slightly. At the close
December was 475sc to 47%c, and
May 531s to 53A.

WEEKLY GRAIN AND
PROVISION REVIEW

Chicago, Oct. 8.-All grain prices
have fallen this week to a new low
record for 1921. Heavy supplies on
hand threatening to result in ser
ious congestion of elevators ap-
peared to be largely responsible.
Compared with a week ago, wheat
this morning was 10A to II cents
a bushei lower; corn off Is to 1Bc,
oats down sc to csc and provis-
ions varying from unchanged fig
ures to a decline of 80 cents.
Notwithstanding rallies at times
owing TO a decrease in the stock
of wheat afoat on the ocean and
because enlargement of the domes-
tic visible supply total was less
than in the previous week, the
downward sweep of values was
practically without any decided in
terruption. With European de-
mand very slow for United States
wheat, bears put special stress on
the big stock at Kansas City and
on the possibility of shipments be-
ing made from there to Chicago.
Sharp attention was therefore
directed to reported scarcity OF
available storage room, especially
here and in the south and south
west In this connection, talk was
current of a possible railway en-
barge against wheat shipments to
New Orleans. Meanwhile Hqulda-
ton by holders took place and no
lasting progress was achieved oy
SPECTATORS who had hoped for a
reaction in view of the severe faIl
in prices
Disappointing husking advices
tended to retard the decline IN
corn. Oats>uere little affected by
suspension of a leading firm In the
oats trade. Provisions weakened
