Future Grain and Provisions. CHICAGO, Sept. 22.—Under the influence of lower cables and favorable weather throughout the corn belt, wheat opened a trifle easier, De- cember and May both being unchanged to e lower at $108% to $100 and $1 10% to §1 10% Moderate liquidation by local traders resulted in an additienal deciine, De- L seliing off to §108% and May to $1 10%@1 10%. The decline apparently was | due more to a lack of demand than to selling. As the session advanced trading became more | brisk, prospects of rainy weather in the North- | west ‘bringing out & number of buying orders | @edited to the leader of the bull clique. The market gradually assumed a strong under- tone, which developed into decided strength lute tn the day.
