Chicago, Sept. 6.—Wheat market Is Inclined to be little eteadler. Ranklln Is about the best buyer of December wheat, with scattered selling of May by commission houses. Minneapolis atocks of wheat de crease 600,000 bushels for five days. A little buying of wheat, notably by a couple parties who gold at the close yesterday. Market tone barely steady. Situation continues heavy owing to the buying power not being lufflclent to absorb hedging sales, and wheat will probably drag lower yet. Langston started to sell December and the crowd wilted. Trade quiet. Logan hoa Just sold 100 May corn at 43 3-8c. Oats opened steady, with local par ties selling May. Buying mostly by commission house*. Trade rather light. Light offerings In provisions. Mod' erato buying of nearby options of lard by shippers. This would indicate bet ter demand for. cash lard. Trade light The general crop report September 10 la to be Issued at 4 p. m. and will show the condition September 1 of corn, buckwheat tobacco and pota toes, and the condition, when harvest ed, of spring wheat, oata, barley and rye. The Minneapolis flour output last week Increased 20,175 barrels, the quantity turned out being 237,175 bar rels. Thts week tho figures promise to be even smaller. Hot only were all the mills Idle on Monday for Labor day, but one or two less are In opera tion than a peek ago. The output Is likely to approximate 260.000 barrels. About all the mills found trade in flour last week lesa favorable. Sales were smaller than In the preceding week and those made .were usually in small lots. Private Wire to Glbert & Clay. Chicago, Sept. 6.—Can see nothing In the situation to warrant changing our views on either grain or provisions. The market Is heavy, due to absence of outside trade and fear of heavy run of spring wheat which, we believe, la hardly probable, as the prevailing price Is practically below the price of production. Would buy wheat now and moro on every aoft apot. This Is the third day of the break In wheat, and on gerterat principle we ought to have a rally. The Record-Herald aays: “By a vote of (21 to 177 the Chicago board of trade voted down the proposition to reduce commission chargss. “Sales cash grain In Chicago were 275,000 wheat, 100,000 corn and 190.000 oats.

By Private tensed Wire. Chicago, Sept. 6.—Wheat bulls were a happy lot because of the reported takings of sixty boat loads, 480,000 bushels, for export. This caused the market to become firmer late, driving some of xhe shorts to cover. The close showed price* at l-80>l-4 cent oft with reactions of S-8c from the bottom. Corn Was tame as a pet fawn and It closed l-4c up to l-8fl91-4c off. Oats un changed to l-S91-4e lower. Provisions were mainly easlor. Primary receipts of wheat for the day, 608,000 bushels, .end corn 672,000 bushels, compared with 761,000 bushels and 930,000 bushels, respectively, a year ago. Clearances from the seaboard were 375,000 bushels wheat, 11,190 bushels corn and 69,000 bushels outs. Winnipeg receipts of new wheat were liberal and the grading most excel lent. Argentine shipments for the week are estimated by Broorohall at 800,000 bushels wheat and 2,000,000 bushels corn. .Today's sales were 5,000 bushels No. 1 Northern wheat and 100,000 bushels corn; 60 loads wheat at seaboard.

However thnt inajr be, there was more disposition to sell than there wna to buy, not ouly among American, but Southern, operators. It looks very much like n purely traders’ market, and ns though anybody who tnkes It for anything more than that will be making a miscalculation which may turn out to be more or less expensive, Ths consensus Is that unless the crop receives more,of a setback than It hns ns yet, tho drift of prices will he downward, with occnslounl upturns at the expense of a con gested short Interest. In the meantime, many are holding aloof, swotting tbe gov ernment reports on the condition of the crop and the ginning up to September 1, which will appenr on Monday, • Henteml»er 10. at 1 p. m. and 2 p. m., respectively."— (llbert & Clay. „ New Orleans, Sept.

New York, Sept. 6.—Tho professional traders eaw fit to consider Secretary Shaw's action in facilitating gold im ports disappointing, and when the mar ket opened at advances over last night's close, they sold stocks In sufficient vol ume to cause some recessions in the first half hour of the trading. Here and there, however, there were some fairly aggressive buying by bull cliques, notably in the case of Amalgamated Copper nnd one or two other active stocks which tended to impart a rather strong tone to the general list, though the advances were not up to London’s Higher range. When the first call loan was made at 20 per cent, and then fell a few points, a fresh buying movement started, nnd led by Brooklyn Rapid Transit, thero were numerous recov eries In prices. Heading soon became the lender, scoring ji sharp advance which held the list On the whole, the market while active and in the main strong, showed a narrower distribution of business, always a symptom of the outside Interest In speculation. Sen • tlment was mixed, the money market continuing to be the principal deterrent to extensive committments on the bull vide. At tho same time, the stock mar ket gave every Indication that with a decline in the lntertst rates, tho pools nnd cliques would not find it difficult to mark up prices and stimulate out- sidu trading. The stock market opened generally high- reuterday ranging up to Louisville nnd Nashville V _ LittOI %.
