GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, Sept. 14.-With the rail
strike practically settled on many
roads, wheat went downward in price
today during the early dealings. trad
ers assuming that the movement of
wheat would be facilitated. Some
such results. of the strike negotiations,
however, had of late been taken for
granted by many dealers. and the eff
feet of values had been more or less
discounted before hand. Lower no
tations at Liverpool were an addition
al bearish factor. The opening, which
varied from unchanged figures to ga
lower with December 100 IA to 100
IL and May 1.05 1-2 to LOS SIS, was
followed by a moderate setback all
around. d
Corn and pats were easier with
wheat. After opening a shade to IA
lower December Sc 3-8 to Sc 1-2. the
corn market eased down a little fur
ther. .
Oats started unchanged to 1-S off,
December "a 1-2 to "a 1-2 to 5-8 and
held near to the Initial range.
On decline December wheat sold
below 81 the first time this a and
May touched the lowest price yet for
the 1922 crop. Weakness of foreign
exchange continued to handicap bulls.
The close was unsettled ga to 1 Is
net lower, with Dec. 90 5R to 80 rs
and May 1.04 ga to 1.04 7-8.
Announcement that the number OF
stock holdings in the u. s. showed an
increase of Z per cent as compared
with last year helped to check weak
ness. The close was unsettled $50
l-2 to 7-S net lower, with Dec. Sc Is.

GRAIN.

Minneapolis, Sept. 14.-Cash wheat
still showed an unsettled one today
and average prices were weaker COM
pared with the futures. There was a
good demand for the best quality at
virtually unchanged compared prices.
Durum wheat demand averaged slow.
There was rather keen mill inquiry
for the choice stuff but the elevator
and shipper bids on dirty offerings
and poorer quality were easier. Winter
wheat averaged easier, but range Of
prices was the same compared with
futures. Z
Corn prices were unchanged and
demand was about the same. Receipts
were sufficient to take care Of re-
quirements. Mixed corn was rather
slow.
Oats demand was quiet and Offer
ings were fairly liberal. Shippers
wanted only a few ars and elevators
showed no keen interest on the re-
ceipts.
Rye demand from mills was snap
pier and the fairly good liberal run
of offerings found outlet early. \
Barley was Arm, and there was a
good demand.
Flax was steady compared with
September and demand vas strong.

GRAIN.

Duluth. Mimi, Sept. 14!-Further
weakness was shown In today's wheat
market. Bearish conditions were con-
sidered to have been intensified thru
the prospect of a heavier movement in
the nea future as a result OF. the cali
ing OFF Of the shipments strike on sew
eral railroads. Receipts Of grain in
this marketAagain fell off today but
that was regarded as only a temper
airy condition, being attributable to
inability of the railroads to spot cars
in sufficient numbers iat shipping
points.
Spot market conditions were the
same as they were yesterday. Millers
were in the market for good wheat
and durum. The market was weak at
