GRAIN AND PROVISIONS

Chicago, Oct. 10.-Wheat went up
ward a little in value Tuesday, owing
mainly to uneasiness regarding a
chance that the Turks might choose to
fight rather than accept terms which
had been offered by the allies. Clos
ing quotations were unsettled, II TO sc
net higher, with December $1O7A to
S O7% and May S1.091s to $1.09A. Corn
finished nc off to sqAc up, oats at
A0Ac decline to a like advance and
provisions unchanged at 12nc down.
Some firmness at the start was dis
played by the wheat market, apparent
" as a result of higher prices at Liv-
erpool and because the United States
government crop report concerning
wheat was construed as bullish. Be
sides, talk was current about frost IN
Argentina. Buying, however, lacked
volume throughout the morning and
the market, until after midday, showed
a tendency to sag in sympathy with
corn and oats.
ShSess IN wheat grew restless during
tbe last hour of the board of trade ses-
sion. no word having been received as
to the outcome of the allies ultinatum
to Turkey. News that export business
at the Gulf of Mexico showed a con-
tinued rise tended further to emphasize
bullish sentiment and so likewise did
reports of a better domestic milling de-
mand. The finish was at about the
top figures of the day.
The bearish aspect of the ~fent
crop report as to corn, compared with
what most traders had expected, mode
prices for corn n oats average lower.

Nev York. Oct. 10.-Heavy specula-
ton and violent fluctuations in high
priced oil shares and extensive tradfns
in steels and equipments were the out
standing developments in Tuesdays &C
tive and irregular stock market SEES
sion.
A rush of buying orders sent prices
I'D at the start, but the violence OF the
rise and a higher ruling rate FOR can
money induced heavy profit taking, es-
p~ecjaily in the Standard Oils, causing
the market to drop around the emu OF
the first hour. The rapid bldding up
of Mexican and Pan-Amerlcan petro-
lerms checked the decline II started
some prices upward again, but the
marking up of the call money rate 70 D
per cent and a rather widely held pc
lief that the extent OF the ADVANCE nad
left the market in a tecnnlGai
position, resulted in a general unsetue-
ment in final dealings.
Standard OIL of New Jersey, which
fluctuated within a range or nearN ~
points, established a new high AT ZooT2
and then closed at 233 for a bet loss OF
1917 points, the days sales approx
mating 100, 900 shares. Mexican FetTo.

points. closing at a net gain OF o%.

leum closed below Mondays final fig

reflected in a drop of ~ from the days

steels were irregular.

Ranorted by III, b. Lake & Co.

Reported by III. b. Lake u Go.
New York, Oct. 10.-That the pace of
the stock market in the last few days
especially so in some of the Standard
oil shares had been too rapid was
quite well shown in Tuesdays trading
when some severe losses were sustained
by several issues which a been most
prominent on the upside of the market
In the last few sessions.
Profit taking on a large scale was in
evidence in most departments and with
the exception OF the so-called Mexican
oil issues and a few specialties the
general list closed lower. The favor
able untitled tonnage statement of the
United States Steel corporation had a
helpful effect on sentiment but 1t had
no immediate effect on stocks. The
dealings offering increased under the
leadership of Standard Oil Of New
Jersey. Quotations receded rather
sharply.
There is but little doubt that heavy
distribution has taken place recently
and it Is thought that 1t will take
some time for the market to digest the
same. 1t Is also believed that there has
been an over indulgence on the buying
side of the oil stocks and the action of
such issues late Tuesday strangely sug-
gests a much over bought condition in
this group. A further lowering in the
stock market prices seems likely to
take place.-Logan & Bryan.
