DECEMBER WHEAT SOLD BACK DOWN TO 67!/£c
Unfavorable Condition of the Presi

ulative Markets.
LIVERPOOL WAS UNRESPONSIVE
Clearance* Heavy at 1,067,000 Bn.
•-General New* of the Grain
." Market.
m
Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, Sept. 13.
—The unfavorable - news from Buffalo and
change for the worse in the condition of the
president was a factor in all speculative mar
kets this morning. Although the grain mar
kets were out of direct touch with the de
* pressing influence, there was some ■ effect
noted. Many traders who ', were buyers at
the close yesterday were inclined to be con
servative and the market met with selling
at the opening. Aside from all this there was
the fact that Liverpool failed to come up with
our advance of yesterday, but was even %d
lower at the close. Corn opened weak and
lower* After the first flurry in wheat the
market was firmer and the clearances show-
Ing wheat and flour equal to 1,067,800 bushels i
were sustaining. Northwestern receipts were
again heavy, showing 1,009 cars, against 579
last year. Duluth got over half the receipts.
December wheat opened %@%c lower at 67% c,
sold to 67% c and broke to 67% c. May wheat
opened to %c lower and lost a cent,
selling to 70%@70&c.
Argentine shipments fell to only 8,000 bush
els, coaiparsd with 144,000 last week end 496,
--000 last year. Kansas City received 95 cars,
against 183 last year, and St. Louis received
64,000 bushels against 135.00Q bushels. Liver
pool was unchanged at first, closing %d lower.
Antwerp \va3 up 12% centimes. Paris lost 5
to 10 centimes on wheat and flour.
Primary receipts were 1,469,000 bushels,
against 1,275,000 bushels last year, and ship
ments 1,116,000 bushels, against 780,000 bush
els. Minneapolis received 498 cars and Du
luth 511, against 411 and 168 last year.
The market showed momentary firmness
near the close, December going back to 67& c,
but at the end there was another break and
67VaC was struck. Closing prices were: De
cember, li7V4c; May wheat, 70%@70%c; Sep- 1
tember, 67c. Chicago closed December at
7014 c.
Cash wheat was not quite so firm as yes
terday, and the general tone was less favor
able to sellers. Prices showed no material
change as to the basis, and No. 1 northern
cold in good part at Vi©%c over December,
yet demand was less active than yesterday.
No. 2 northern sold at 66c flat for nearly
• verything offered in the grade. No. 3 wheat
ranged from 62c to 65c, the bulk of it going
at 64@64^c. In the low grades there was a
fair elevator inquiry and sales of rejected and
no grade from 58c to 63c.
THE FLOUR MARKET
Continued Fair Demand To-day, but
Lighter Shipment*.
The flour market shows no especially new
feature. Foreign demand is light and domes
tic sales are principally of small lots, yet the
aggregate business is fair.

brls for the day.

patents, $3.65@3.75; first clears, $2.80@2.85;

DECLINE IN STOCKS
Heavy Losses Result From the
President's Relapse.
ST. PAUL THE HEAVIEST LOSER
General Selling; Caniea Price* to
Give 'Way After v Partial
Rally Had to me.
New York, Sept. 13.—Conditions were ner
vous and excited in the financial districts this
morning before the stock market opened, and
the wide declines in the London market gave
an index of what might be expected at the
opening here as a result of the presidents
relapse. The first transactions showed senti
ment demoralized. Blocks of 1,000 to 6,000
shares were thrown on the market at the
opening, and further sales of equal volume (
followed each other in quick succession in
the downward grade of priceß. St. Paul,
Union Pacific, United States Steel stocks and
Amalgamated Copper were most acutely af
fected, St. Paul dropping suddenly 6 points
on a wide opening at 157*4 to 155 as the price
of the stock. * Union Pacific loss was 5-vi
within the first few minutes, and Amalgamat
ed Copper 4%, Republic Steel preferred 4%,
Atchison 3%, Brooklyn Transit 5%, Erie 3Vs.
New York Central 3^4, Rock Island 5, Ten
nessee Coal, United States Steel stocks 2%
each, and the principal active stocks as a
rule from 2 to 3 points.
There were some slight momentary rallies,
but the market continued excited and fever
ish.
Trading was highly sensitive, and although
the lowest prices were made within a few
minutes of the opening, the substantial ral
lies of from 1 to 2 points were not well held,
owing to renewed heavy liquidation. Inside
interests supported various stocks, but the
readiness with which prices gave way when
any large amount of stocks were offered dis
couraged long buying. Toward 11 o'clock the
entire list was running off again, and such
leaders as Sugar, Southern Pacific and Amal
gamated Copper fell below opening figures.
There was another rally and a decrease 'B
activity, but prices were ehifting and un
stable.
The general selling increased during the
second hour and prices gave way all round.
Low prices were made by many prominent
stocks, with the selling of Amalgamated Cop
per, the Pacifies and grangers usually large.
The United States Steel stocks were also
offered freely; the common declining beiow
41. Extreme losses extended to 6in Rock
Island and Great Northern preferred, 5 or
over in Amalgamated Copper, St. Paul, Dela
ware & Hudson, and 8& in General Electric.
Amalgamated Copper sold down to 104%,
a loss of 6%. Some other active stocks fell
lower than any forenoon price, especially
Atchison, Manhattan and the United States
Steel stocks. Covering by the short in
terests caused several recoveries before 1
o'clock and trading became quieter. Amal
gamated Copper rallied 2*4 and other promi
nent stocks a point or more.
Call money rose to 9 per cent and room
traders sold the market. Declines were not
severe and the market became dull, and
steadier again as offerings decreased. News
from Buffalo was anxiously awaited and oper
ators in stocks were disposed to do little
pending official bulletins of the president's
condition.
Liquidation was renewed in the final hour •
in fear of the outcome of the night's events. <
Some large blocks of Pacifies, St. Paul and i
Erie came out, selling these stocks lower than i
before. The market steadied again, but did {
not rally with effect. The closing was fever
ish and irregular near to the low point. ' ,
Bonds were very weak for speculative is
sues. __- .■...--.:;■

INVESTMENT GOSSIP
New York, to Watson: "Stock market
abroad was directly influenced by the changed
conditions at Buffalo reported since yester
day afternoon. Our latest private informa
tion indicates an extremely critical condition
and, under the circumstances, we will re
frain from comment at this time except to
say that the public was totally unprepared
for the crisis, and that the probabilities are
that the market will be taken care of by the
great financial heads who have most at
stake."
Logan, to Jolley: "The president's condi
tion is such that we feel stocks a sale on
every slight rally. The bankers are holding
the market, but, In case of the president's
death, we will be showered with slocks."
New York to I. G. Andrews—The bulls have
met a check in any movement for market
betterment and then the announcement that
the treasury has bought $75,000,000 bonds will
not rally it. Prices will go lower before they
go up and we advise waiting to buy at a low
er level. Don't sell short as stocks are too
strongly held. The public is not in the mar
ket and professionals are now bearish.
