Chicago, Sept. 10.—The tenor of the govern ment crop report was generally known before the opening on 'Change, and as it was regarded as a rather bearish document on wheat, the opening prices had a weak tone. October wheat started at 70)4c and sold almost immediately to 70@70%c. The government figures on the w heat crop were just what the crowd had exacted, and this, together with liberal selling by local houses, caused further weakness and October wheat dropped to 69%c. Scalpers dumped their w heat freely the last hour. December was sold with uuusual freedom around 73®73%c, one house letting go over 1,000,009 bushels. There were a good many limited buying orders at the inside, and they stopped further downward movement, but the market closed weak at a fraction above inside figures of the day and week and )q®%c lower than yesterday. Octo ber's final figure was 79c. Corn was quite ae tive and rather unsettled to-day. The opening was rather weak, but the government crop re port and persistent buying by a local operator caused prices to firm up somewhat and the mur ket closed steady at about yesterday’s figures. The chief activity was in May option. October corn opened at. 42)4c, sold down to 41%c ami re acted to 42%c and closed at 42%c. May started at 45%c, declined to 45%c, reacted and closed at 45Ke. Oats were comparatively quiet. October sold at 25J4<& 25%c ana closed at 25%®25%e. Provisions ruled generally quiet,with the feeling somewhat unsettled. Prices were irregular and oil an average lower on the leading articles, aud the market closed rather tame. Offerings were not very large and the demand was limited, trading being mainly in October and January deliveries. The receipts were Mir and ship ments quite large. October lard sold at $6 611® 0 62% and closed steady.

Sept. 10.—Until the crop report of the Agricultural Bureau and tbs New Orleans Cotton World were received the market was dull, with prices ruling at two points below the close. Liverpool was quiet and steadv at one point advance, and little business was and ting on the Exchange here. Tiie bureau report ivas more unfavorable than expected, and the aver age 82.8 as compared with 9J.8 for the mont h of July alarmed tne short interest, whose buying ran up some nine points. The close was steady at a slight recession, buyers having been sup plied. The course of the market depends upon tiie view taken of the report by Liverpool, and should it be believed there that a crop of 6.500,- 000 iiales is foreshadowed by this average an advance is probable, which will have its effect on our quotations. It still remains to be seen ivhat effect this report will have upon the South ern short interest, whose confident attitude so far has caused many to discredit the rumors of serious injury. We append a summary of the two reports of the Agricultural Bureau: The serious rains 011 the Atlantic coast and drought in the Gulf States have brought about much shedding of bolls. The boll worm and cater pillar have wide distribution, and have done some damage and threaten more. The States' averages are: Virginia 88. Georgia 84, Missis sippi 84. North Carolina 89, Florida 88, Louisiana 86. South Carolina 89, Alabama 81, Texas 77, Arkansas 83, Tennessee 78. The Cotton World's conditions are as above. The losses from shed ding and rust are unusual, and fruitage is disap pearing; worms have done much damage; suf ficient labor for all requirements, and picking general; average by States: Virginia 86. Ten nessee 80, North Carolina 86, Arkansas 81, South Carolina 87, Mississippi 88. Georgia 84, Louisiana 85. Florida 87. Texas 80, Alabama 83. Average for the belt 83.6; average last year 86.6.

We are now offering immense lines of New Straw Hats, Ribbons, Feathers, etc., which are now being shipped daily by onr New York buyer, and our Mr. Krouskoff, who is now North to assist in the selection of the Choicest Novelties in the Millinery Line. It is astonishing but a fact, that we sell tine Millinery cheaper than any retail store in New York. How can we do it? Cannot tell. This is our secret and our suc cess. Perhaps on account of large clearing out purchases or perhaps from direct shipments from London or Paris—but no matter so long as the ladies have all the advantages in stock and prices. We are now ready for business, and our previous large stock will be increased, and we are now offering full lines of tine Milans in White and Colors, for Ladies, Misses and Children in an endless variety of shapes RIBBONS, RIBBONS, new novelties added and our regu lar full line entirely filled out. We knock bottom out in the price of Straw Goods. We continue the sale of our Ribbons at same prices aa heretofore, although the prices have much advanced.
