CHICAGO, Oct. 6.—Opening prices for wheat showed a slight decline from yesterday, De- cember starting at 623@62isc. Though the early news was somewhat bullish in tone, it was evi- dent that shorts had pretty well covered their lines vesterday, for the market showed no re- sponsiveness and on the contrary showed weak- ness for some time after the opening. In haif an hour December had been sold down to 62% @623c, under rather free general selling. Liv erpool was %d higher. Northwestern receipts were considerably smaller than of late. New. York reported foreigners good bidders for spring wheat for shipment. After the first selling flurry was over the market became ex- cessively dull, and prices kept within a narrow range for some time, though a gradual im- provement in tone was noticeable. Outalde markets were all stronzer than this, Minnesota and Duluth going especially strong for cash wheat. Foreign markets also showed strength, due to the dry weather in England and on the Contlnent. The market reached its highest point shortly before the close, December get- Ung up to 62%@02%c, closing at 62@62%c, o vance over yesterday. Corn was slow all’ day with prices inclined 0 droop, .
