THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. An Increase in the Visible Forces ‘Wheat Prices Down. CORN ACTIVE AND FIRMER EARLY, Heavy Receipts Indicated for the Future Cause a KReaction—Pro« vision Interest Conflned to Pork—Hogs Lower, CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Cnrcaco, Sept. 8. to Tur Bee.]—Wheat opened up strong at Ji@lgc advance from last night's closing price on anticipation of a decrease in the visible supply. The final returns showed an increase of 90,000 bushels. Small increase was, it created a_change of senti- ment in the trading crowd and the keavy offerings speedily forced prices down. The decline was small measured by the actual fractions, but as indicative of a change in tendency the depreciation can not be said to be altogether important. Initial trading was on a basis of 78ifc for September, 70'c for December and 8814 for May. December sold ' at 70%c and May at 88%c. This was the top. The more impor- tant subsequent fluctuations in December were from 70%c¢ down to 70%@i9%gc, up to T9%@795¢c, down to 793¢, up to 79%c, down 10 70¢, up to 190, the closing being 79'4c. May ranged at 833%(@84'¢c and closed at 83'gc. September sold down from 78!¢c to 77%c and closed at i7)¢e. Operations were on a fairly liberul scale throughout the session, no ex- citing news was aflout, and the day’s busi- ness was undisturbad by sensational episodes of any description. Tke commission houses with New York and northwestern connec- tions were good buyers during the carly part of the session, and. indeed, most of the day on softspots. New York sent bearish ad- vices, Nighteneale, as usual, heading the list of bear chroniclers. His telegraphic tolls to Chicago must have been $30 or 830 to-day, which is considerable money to spend in the gratuitous distmbution of opinion in quarters where no return s ever made. Nightengule's intense interest in the market at this juncture is explained by Chi- cigo people on the theory that he is heavily short to foreigners and is vherefore desirous of getting his wheat to ship as chuap as pos- sible. The market here has about ceased to be influenced by bearish New York reports emanatiug from distinctly interested sources. The northwest 18 bearish on crop news, but prices do not square with bulletins of weak- ish tenor. Minneapolis millers aro openly and almost unammously bearish for the con- fessod reason that thoy want to lay in sup plies as low down as prices can be forced, but uo sooner is wheat beginning to slip past them than they advance their buying limits. Simultancously comes the news that there is an active demand for wheat at Minneapolis at 3¢ advance over yesterday's prices. The corn market early was firmer and active. The weather was still cool in the far west, but the corn belt was enjoying weather suited to the maturing of grain, The Liver- pool market was quoted strong and advanc- ing, but clearances yesterday from the At- lantic seuboard were lizht, There was an active inguiry for cash corn, but a good deal of the offerings of No. 2 were bought on the account of a heavy local speculator, who paid more money than the regular shippers were inclined to give, A heavy increase in the visible supply, amounting to 2,270,000 bushels, was a weakening feature and brought about a reaction from the opening firmness, the temper of the local speculative element being in fuvor of the beur view of future values, The opening figures on Sep- tember and October were 33l¢c and 83%c, respectively, being }g¢ better than Monday’s closing figures. but after advancing about ¢c & more weaker feeling prevailed and rought about a drop of }{c, October closing finally at 83%@383¢c and September at 335¢c. Oats were quiet within @ narrow rauge, May remaining fully steady, while near fu- tures ruled J@!c lower. There was no pressure to sell May, though it is believed on some sides that the short interest in that month is nearly led, as considerable covering has been done in the past few days and there is on undertone of mild weakness. Oats for this and pext month were offered with_considerable freedom by headers and the buying support was light, with Septem- ber sagging to 19}gc and Ootober at J@ic premium, No. 2 o0ats to go to store sol chiefly at 193c, of e lower. for September sold at 213¢c. In the provision pit almost all the interest developed was contined to pork. Hutchinson removed the mystery surrounding the Octo- ber deal and assumed control. His brokers were 1n the market and the **Old Man' was, during & good portion of the day, within con* venient distance of the pit, declaring his con- tempt_for the construction placed upon the rule by Judge Smith — the board’s attorney—governing the delivery of pork made in October on contracts. Judge Smith, it appears, has had the question under consi ion and has decided the point as follo “Pork packed in barrels on and after October 1 and placed in ap- proved ice storuge and prepared and packed as required by the regulations relating to barreled mess pork, is regular and aeliver- able on contracts, and it is not necessary that such Jorx sball remain on ico storage for thirty 8 or any number of days before it can be delvered.” Judge Smith's solu- tion of the knotty point met of course with the approval of the Octcber shorts, but in the general trade a good wany sided with Hutchinson. The latter declared that the attorney of the board was biased in his views, and that unmerchantable property—property not suitable for use or shipment—could not be considered proper and legal delivery. At all events, the in- terest taken in ‘the matter overshadowed everything connected with the trade, Specu- lation was generally u little slow, and even in pork the operations made a rather poor showing. Traders were inclined to desert the near deliveries, and if the wrangle over the delivery of October-made pork is main- tained January promises to become the favorite mooth, The outstanding short in- terest in October pork is unquestionably large and the settlements of the same are likely to be awtended with more or less trouble. In to-day's market prices showed wide and irregular ohauges. Hased on yes- terday’s final quotations the closings indi- cated an advance of 15¢ on September vork, 76“»“ on September short ribs aud 10¢ on ctober pork. September lard suffered a decline of 23¢c, October lard of 7i§c, January hr&:( b0 und Junuary pork and short ribs ) No. 2 white CHICAGO LIVE BTOCK.

OMAHA LIVE STOCK. Catrle. Tuesday, Sept. ‘With over 2,000 fresh receipts of catt he buyers were able to be a little bearish, A few of the best native beeves sold at about yesterday’s prices, but aside from them_ the buyers were genorally talkiog lower from the start. Instead of getting better if any- thing it got worse, and it would be safe to quote the market 5@10c lower, In somo in- stances buyers asserted that they got u re- duction of 10c on some pretty fair natives. The prices paid for native beeves ranged from £3.70 to $4.35. A good many salesmen thought that butchers' stock was selling lower, but the buyers claimed that they were getting a more common grade of cows. Some little heifers brought $1.55@1.75, and a good shure of the cows went at $1.40@1.75, Some good cows and heifers brouwht §1.80@2.10. A few western cows changed hands at §1.50@ 1.05. There is a good demand for bulls for distillery feeding and avything suitable for that purpose is selling mostly at $L.50@2.00. A few head of range bulls sold ut $1.15@1.50. There were not many fresh stock cattle or feeders in the yards, but there wus a good deal of inquiry for cattla of that description and there were severa. heavy buyers. The prices paid were avout steady with yester- day. A few loads of western feeders sold at 5 and some natives at $2.00. " Hogs. The market went In the buyers' direction again to-duy sud a 10c decline was recorded. The receipts were the heaviest of any day since July 9, when over 7,000 Logs were ro- ceived. 'That fact, together with the heavy run and lower markets at eastern points, en- abled the buyers to gain a very considerable concession. The light hog men were uble to buy light sorts at £1.85 which sold at §3. 4.00 ou yesterday, but as high as $3.4: paid for & very choice light load. Good heavy hogs sold largely at £5.70@375, but it wus hard work to et over &.65 for some of the late arrivals. The pieces of loads and heavy ends sold at $3.50@3 60, Sheep.
