DEALERS IN Stocks and Bonds. r^LOANS NEGOTIATED. Chicago ’Change. * Chicago, Oct. 8.—The wheat market was treated to quite a great deal of strength today, and prices at one time during the session were 1 above the close of yesterday, but not all of the recovery was maintained. The action of Liverpool ami Paris in ad vanclng regardless of American losses of yesterday, as received in the early cables stiffened up the curb, ami the strength was carried into the regular market. Luter in the session, when it was heard that securi ties in London were declining, owing to the present complications over the Turk ish-Armenian troubles, prices showed up another cent without a pause. The market settled into a itutet state subsequently, and a portion of the advance was dropped. De cember wheat opened from 5iiy2c to 5994c, advanced to declined to and closed at 50%c higher than yesterday. Casli wheat was lc per bushel higher. Corn was still incapable of attracting in terest or attention. The range speaks for the business, 94c being the limit within which fluctuations took place. The strength which marked the trading in wheat affected corn to a slight extent and served as a sus taining influence. Liverpool cables were dull and easy. May com opened at 28%‘S) 2i)c, advanced to 2>.l(!j29Hc, closing at 29c, be ing 'jo higher than yesterday. Cash corn was steady to firm, with very little, if any, change in prices. There was no diversion of any kind in oats. The market was of the same kind that lias existed every day for over a month. Prices held Arm because of the feeling in other markets. May oats closed higher than yesterday. Casli oats were firm at unchanged prices. Provisions—The condition of the produce market may be judged from the fact that It wa» fully ten minutes after the bell had tapped at the opening before tf single trans action took place. The balance of the ses sion presented nothing different from this as regards activity. A fairly steady feeling ruled, the strength of wheat extending a helping hand. The hog market was un changed.

Exports up to last night were 187,390 bales, against 343,330 bales in the same time last year. Today’s features: It was a ijioderate speculation, with moderate fluctuations. General rains were reported at the south, and cooler weather was predicted In most sections, with light frosts in Alabama, Mis sissippi and Tennessee. The general ex pectation Is, moreover, that the bureau re port will be bullish. .New Orleans sent sup* porting orders', and there was more or less local buying for both sides of the account. On th^ other hand, the receipts were heavy. Liverpool closed weaker. There were ru mors of political complications in Europe, and the linal prices here were slightly lower. In the main, however, it is a waiting mar ket. Neither bulls nor bears arc disposed to take the aggressive at the moment. General Cotton Markets. Cities. Galveston ... Norfolk. Baltimore. Boston.
