THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. Inorease in the Visible Supply Causes Wheat to Decline. CORN WEAK AND DEPRESSED. A Welcome Loosening Up Takes Place in the Oat Deal—iiog Business Brisk With Saturday’s Prices Prevailing. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Cnicaco, Sep'. 80.—(Special Telegram to Tup Bee]—December wheat sold down from 821 10 82¢ this morning becuuse there was going to be an increase of over 1,000,000 bushels in the visible supply. Minneapolis helped the thing along by numercus dis- patches relating to a big movement of wheat, present and prospective. A lot of little fel- lows went short on the theory that the mar- ket was goiug to pot. On the last i{c decline thero was an absorption of property on n huge scale and the market advanced with startling vigor. Long beforo the visiblo supply fleures were posted it became evident from the details at hand that thore was dis- appointment in store for the believers in a big increase. New York increased about one hundred thousand bushels, but M apolis only morensed 143,000 bushels and Du- Tuth also showed a decrease of 83,000 bushels, Chicago - showed a small decrease, and it was plain to be scea that the large quantity of wheat that was naturally ex- pected to appear in the visible had been mys terionsly swallowed up. The footings made the total increase only 656,000 bushels, When the fiunl returns were posted December was solling around 82)4e, having laboriously re- coverod 3c of the previous decline. The advanced sharply under the spur of the *‘covering” by shorts and the receiot of stronger French cablos, based on disappoint- ing harvester returns in western Burop ‘The market kept right on going up until De- cember ot to $3%e. It reacted to S3@s8lge, but the tone was strong and property that was kicking about at 82@s2lgc was in active request around 8314c during the latter end of the session, Among the beurs keen disappointment. was felt because the bulls had not stampedel on the down turn from 84%{c to 8%, but some of the sturdicst and sirewdest among them accepted this as eviden that the strong holders were keeping large lines off the mar- ket and increasing their holdings on the breaks. ‘Lhe brars feel that their position is dangerous while stocks continue 8o light in the west, aud the bulls feel that no seri- ous decline is likely to occur 8o long as the existing stute of affairs with regard to cash wheat contiuues. When stocks get for- midabls they may change their views. Dur- ing the last hour there was & large trade in futures. The lust quotation for Decem- ber was May wheat opened at S53ge, sold from Sh3c down to SHg@s4%e carly in the day, and up to S6c in the subsequent ad wvance, closing at 8 October ranged at 80lg(@8ge, closing ut' S1%e. The net im- provement for the day was i{c in Decembe; J%e in Ma d %c o Octobe n the aggregate ~w large busi- mess in futures was done, though for an hour or wore right in the middle of the session operations were on u restricted There was life euough in the lust however, Oune of the lute items of was contained in the anuouncement that Linn aud others had bought 125 cars of No. 1 northern i Minneapolis for shipping to Chicago. Late United Kingdom cables wers weak and lower, and brought selling orders. "The corn market was weak and depressed, especially on near deliveries, the weakest on the list being the one which *expires to-d. The visible supply, showing only 271,00 ~—=Z%ihushels increase, in'a measure steadied 'the market, and it was aided likowise by the firmness of wheat, but its reciprocative bow- ers were weak, and au undertone of heavi- ness was observubly throughout. There was not much doing except in the way of chang- ing October und November into December and May,and the latter monthwas remurkably steady within a range of Jjo, Closiug prices were: October 81l@illgc, November 51 @$13ge, December sl5@dlige, and May B35 (@sizce. Uhere was u welcome loosening up of tho oat deal to-day. Price alterations were small, but considerable business was done in all deliveries. Near wonths were particu- larly firm and commanded a shade better pricos.

Octob pork opened at Saturday's pri —$1L.25—but before business fairly started a report was circulated that houses short to it were enjoining from filling themr coutracts with October-mude property. It mvas said that an_application had been made to Judge Tuley foran injunction and thay the same would be issued during the day. ‘These reports created considerable stir, und though there wus no confirmation while the session lasted of the story that the clique had applied for an injunction” or had taken steps 1o do 80, the market was affected materially Some of the weak-kneed shorts were fright encd into covering, and under their buyin supplemented by light offerings, October pork was worked up to $11.45. 1t sold b twaen the opening aud adjournm @145 and closed at §11 higher than last week’s lust In the general trade theroe was no decided activity. Large receipts of hogs made the opening heavy, but the weakness developed was short-lived. Advices from the stock s were mere satistactory as regards the nund and rubing prices” than were ex- ected, and the product promptly changed The market became, in fact, quite strong, and price fluctuations were kept within a small range. Still the closings showed but little change from Satucday’s quotations. September short ribs were ad- vanced 100, November and January ribs and November pork 2ige, October lard and ribs and January ribs declined 2ige.
