BULLS WERE CAUGHT NAPPING Lively Klnlih to a Stagnant Market -Xewn and Goimly of the Da*' , L- Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, Oct. 1. —Wheat traders are discouraged over the dullness In the speculative market. A quiet period at this time is not unusual, and is ratter expected, nevertheless the present Stagnant market has been long drawn out, and at the moment there is nothing In sight to indicate increased activity for the Imme diate future. Few care to go short, fearing the turn following the breaking of the dull ness will be upward, and the constitutional bulls are ready to take hold as soon as they can discern anything on which to base bull •uthusiasin. Meanwhile neither force is ac tive and the market sticks around 67^4c >r December. May wheat was relatively weaker to-day, and sold off a little to Tu^o. Reoeipts at Minneapolis and Duluth were 1,337 cars, compared with 461 last year. Chi cago opened a fraction lower on the tame cables and heavy receipts northwest.

With the market all but asleep and the pit nearly deserted, a heavy line of wheat was offered in Chicago. That market broke and in the decline that followed here stop loss orders were uncovered.

I.—Whisky, $1.30, Waldorf gossip to Watson: The market is said to be extremely discouraging to both speculators and the large commission houses. It is understood that the former had hoped to make a turn In the market by following large interests, which, it was believed, would advance prices several points, with the pur pose of selling their own stocks at favorable figures. The speculators are quoted as saying now, however, that apparently the large in terests have damaged the program and that they are liquidating their pool holdings grad ually at the best figures they can secure in this declining market.
