Chicago, Ocf. 19.—Bartlett, Frnah*r & Car
rington: The situation to pm looks ex
tremely bullish on wheat. Our foreign ad

the wenther Is too wet In Europe and un
favorable weather prevails In Argentine.
Tho demand fur corn the Inst day or two
has not been good, but we expeel receipts
to run light after the 1st of month.
The demand for cash oats was much bet
ter yesterday. We do not look for much
further decline.
Chicago Itecord-IIernld:
Popular sentiment In wheat has veered
sharply to the selling side. Tight money,
which has lieen largely Ignored In tho grain
trade until now, became a very live nud
potent factor yesterday. Au Increasing
number of western nud northwestern grain
meu, falling to get adequate accommoda
tions at their home bunks, were making pil
grimages bore. Some were supplleil but all
paid high rates. As n rule, however, the
applicant for funds was referred back to his

“Drought Is doing damage lu the south went,

there nro partly destroyed. There Is also
every prospect of this drought continuing.
A private report says thst the wenther In
India Is still cloudv, hut no rain has fallen.

Town Topics: The feeling of pes
simism la more pronounced than ever
nnd an erratic market la naturally to be
looked for today. The fact] that banks
are discriminating more •'and more
against Industrial collateral leads to the
belief that there will be much more
selling In this section of the list, and
we think lower prices will prevail. At
the same time short selling is attended
with considerable risk now and we
would advise the short side only on the
rallies and in those stocks where the
greatest amount of liquidation Is still
to be expected. The Steel shares, com
mon and preferred, as far as we are
able to learn, will be under severe
pressure of long stock, and the same
may be said of the Copper and Smelt
ing issues, while practically the only
buying of Importance going on In this
section Is by the shorts. There are
weak places still to be liquidated among
the rails, and until the selling of this
nature Is completed we do not look for
any great Improvement. The bank
statement outlook Is favorable, and a
moderate Increase In surplus reserves
Is likely, but money will be tight, at
least for the rest of the month. We
look for lower prices generally today.
Unless very unfavorable weather de
velops we would sell cotton on all
bulges.
Buy wheat only for turns on sharp
breaks.
