Northern pfd 155 | —— ! - 65 J CHICAGO, Oct. 14.—There a general dis- = & | position manifested among wheat traders to sell out long lines and an absence of any news that might be construed as of a bullisn character the market developed a weak under- tone. Opening prices were easier rather indifferent cables, favorable weather for the movement and larger receipts, December being 5@ X ¢ lower at T94@70%c. Trading was dull in the early part of the session and prices fluc- tuated within a narrow range. The tendency was toward a lower level, though, influenced by the smaller demand for cash and lower prices in Minneapolis. Later a fair rally oceurred on buying by traders who had sold short early, which sent December up gradually to T9%c. A slight rally at Minncapolis and a stronger mar- ket at St. Louis were causes for the covering. During the last hour of the session there was selling on the advance credited to a prominent bull operator and with an absence of support the market again weakened.

Hay rules weak, owing to the recent large receipts, and Alfalfa Is being sold lower by some dealers. i The circular of Somers & Co. says of Ha: “‘During the latter part of last week receipts of Hay were very light, but this week has opened with rather heavy shipments again. The total for the week ending to-day amounts to 3200 tons, an increase over the week pre- ceding of 700 tons. Shipments by water have been quite heavy the pest few days. but witn the exception of Monday's record shipments by rail have been quite light. Quite a portion of the water shipments have been Alfalfa. Most of the Grain Hay ning by boat was shipped from Stockton, which district alone has quite a bit of Hay out of doors. What Is arriving by cars has been taken from the warehouses, and owing to the expense of storag®and insurance | very little profit has been realized on the sale | of same, even with the recent advance in prices. |.Because of Monday's heavy arrivals there was a decided weakening in prices, although very | few sales were made. H | Tpe general tendency of the market will be | ; toward higher prices, for as practically all the | Hay is in second hands there will be a natural effort to make some profit on what has been | purchased. The market will probably be a very sensitive one, however, and prices will be Shipping and Brewing, | $1 20G1 45 for. fair to heavy. 1 hoice Wheat Hay holds its own better than the other grades, for there is a certain daily demand for this kind of Hay, and as a rule very light stocks of the choicest Hay are carried by the various dealers.

The top quotation for Apples enberg or the King variety, $1 being an ex- treme figure for all other varieties.

A slight change appears in Sheepskins and there is %c decline in Buckskins. Tallow is also quoted somewhat lower. Hops rule easy at the decline mentioned, and the demand at the moment is slack. » A local house says of Wool: ‘“An unac- countable dullness has developed in the Wool market. and in the absence of any wholesale trading the prevailing prices are purely nom- inal. The Marysville sales held last Saturday were extremely disappointing to growers, who were forced to accept from S@lCc a pound for their stock, although they had expected a: least 10G13c, the same rates that tained at the recént Red Bluff sales. A qui tone is also prevalling in the Eastern centers. In conmection with the current weakness in Hops advices from New York say: A point is being made by some of the trade that with | Hops at their present cost, the question of finance is an important one with many dealers, it taking any considerable quantity of Hops. and the condition of money makes it necessary to pay h rates of Interest to obtain fund: MENIDES AND SKINS-—Culls und brands sell about 1%c under quotations.
