6 THE COMMERCIAL RECORD. On the Chicago Board of Trade Wheat Bolls Suffered a Set Back. the Feeling Was Unsettled Rather Than Weak Throughout the Session. transactions in the Financial Circles of Wall Street— Gen eral Quotations. Special to the Globe. Chicago, Sept. 28.—There was less snap and sparkle to wheat to-day and quite a boom In corn. Wheat started down, but the de cline was checked by the sharp advance in porn. The Farmers Review's estimate that the corn crop would be 1,300,000,000 bu started the buying fever, and the crowd be came exceedingly bullish. . Everybody was buying for themselves and customers. Hutch inson was the great prime mover in corn, lie bought on the Farmers Review's esti mates and kept right on buying up to 46c for May and 42% c for October and November. Up to noon there was huge trading, but the tizz departed as suddenly as a candle is snuffed out, and for the last hour was tame. May left off at 4">V. although corn was the most sensational deal on 'cnange there was not much to it from a news point of view. Old Hutch did most of the whooping up. He made the rounds of the brokers' offices, buying at and above the market, and his brokers were active on the floor. Wheat cables were bullish and that proved quite a prop to the local market, but the crowd seemed anxious to work off a por tion of its long wheat. As there was a dearth of sustaining orders the market assumed an appearance of softness. There was good buying at times, however, and the pit was thronged with active traders. For the past three or four days nothing but bull talk has been heard. Now everybody is looking for a reaction. The expression is frequently heard, "I am very friendly to wheat, but expect to see lower prices before the permanent improvement sets in. The equiuoxtial storms are now about over, and villi clearing weather receipts at primary points are expected to show an increase in the near future. The local leaders were nearly all sellers to-day. Those who had closed out their trades put out new lines, and those who had stood pat on wheat sold ■'■ 3c lower increased their lines as a rule. A good deal of long wheat was dumped, Henry Clews & Company getting rid of a large quantity through their Chicago brokers. Oats developed strength and activity, closing higher. The boom in corn put speculative life into provisions. All products advanced, but the improvement was not sustained in anything but libs, though the market closed strong. Estimated receipts to-morrow: 74 cars wheat. 292 cars corn, 14S cars oats, and 17,000 head of hogs. THE ROUTINE REPORT. CnicAGO, Sept. 28.—The wheat bulls suf fered a set back to-day. One weakening feature was the increase"of the amount ou ocean passage by about 400.000 bushels. This, however, was counteracted by the ca bles, which made spot and futures"firm and in fair demand at Liverpool. There was nothing unusual in the wheat movement on this side. Heavy receipts were reported at Minneapolis and Duluth. and fair receipts at other primary points. Trading was active, but the feeling was unsettled, and consider ing, the strength of corn was rather weak most of the session. There was good buying but at the same time the longs rather ex ceeded the demands, there being realizing again. Shorts evidently were pretty well covered for the near futures. The selling was chiefly for May. October opened at 71 %C, sold'up to 71 sic. reacted to 711/2 C, ad vanced to 71%(g,71%c and closed at 70T>77,71c the weakness be iug especially marked towards the close. "May opened at 79*4 c, ranged from 7914 cto 78'->c, closing at 7S','2C This was a decided bull day iv corn. They were not a tew who expected a reaction and decline with the clearing weather. Many hastily con cluded that corn had already advanced to a dangerous point for investment on the bull side. Others contended that the advance was but the reaction following the break of Sept. 16. and that corn had returned to the figures of that date. Wheat was from 2to 3 cents higher than at the middle of the month. At any rate, the combination of causes were on the bull side this morning, and corn went up before noon from 1,2 to lc per bushel, and May touched atone time 46c. The causes seemed to be these: A good de mand by exporters; the estimate of the crop of the year down to 1,310,000,000 declin ing local receipts which were to-day for the first time in three weeks less than 400 cars: a demand for cash corn which caused September to sell at one moment *4c over Oc tober. That month opened 41 "fee, sold stead ily up to 42% c and reacted slightly. Novem ber opened with October at 41 %c, and also reached its best figures at 42% c. May was the center of interest and opened at 45 Vac lost one point and then went straight up to -10c. after selling %c under. The half hour before 1 p. m. brought a weaker feeling, probably on account of a desire to realize. Closing figures were from ti®%e under the highest point of the day. Oats had no par ticular strength of their own, but they sold higher on the strength shown by corn." Near futures were in good demand, with but meager offerings, and prices ruled firm and higher. By 1 p. m. September, salable at %c. advanced with offerings; October ranged s,»(T' lac higher, and November improved 14c. May was more active, but only about %c bet *—tar—At the late afternoon session, however, there was a decline of about 14c all around. Provisions were stronger, and a better busi ness transpired at a higher range of prices. Receipts of hogs were fair, but not up to the expectations of many operators. Prices were well maintained and had a decided effect upon holders of products, making them slow about selling. There was better buying of January pork and ribs than during any of the preceding days of this week. Shorts, who nave been selling freely of late, became nervous and covered and helped put prices up. January opened at §12.321,2, sold to 512.55, receded to 512.421.2, again advanced to §12.52%. the closing price, which is 22% c over yesterday's final figures. Lard received fair attention, and sold at §6.40@6.50 Octo ber closing at SO. 1 / 50. October short ribs were comparatively quiet, but advanced from §7.00 to $7.771,2. ;. - THE QUOTATIONS.

Special to the Globe. * Duluth, Minn, Sept. 28.-The market opened lower .to-day, but held firm until the last of the long session when it broke half a cent or more. The weakness was caused by lower values at Chicago and free selling here together with some increase in receipts from first hand. 3 The decline is but a natural reac tion from the recent sharp advance and is as much the result of - brokers;.. taking in their profits from the bulge in advance.

The business in the stock market to-day was somewhat restricted by the absence of the Jewish element and was but slightly larger than that of yesterday. The tone of the dealings, however, was firm to strong throughout most of the day, principally upon clique buying. The news of the day was not of much influence, but what there was of it was of a favorable nature and the rumors circulated were of the same character. Con siderable influence was exerted by the con ference of the secretary of the treasury and the leading - bankers of the city and it undoubtedly stimulated buying. The announcement of the advance in rates by St. Paul was of much benefit to the Grangers and the improved as pect of the coal trade made the coal stocks the leaders of the market during the fore noon, but the Vauderbilts displaced them to ward the close. The buying of the latter was stimulated by reports of the unusually good earnings. Richmond and West Point was notably weak in the afternoon, but had little effect upon the general list. The opening was generally heavy on the offerings by the traders at declines of from Va to % per cent from yesterday's final figures. Trading was dull but soon became more animated and the market was firm to strong from the opening. Jersey Central, Missouri Pacific, New En gland, Reading and Richmond & West Point were notably strong at the time. The market quieted aown later when Jersey Central made a further gain. There were some few slight declines in the afternoon, but the general list crept slowly up and the Vanderbilts assumed tbt lead. There was no further change In the market and the close - was quiet but strong at the best prices of the day.
