Ordinarily the consumption of our local
mills are about 20,000 per annum bales,
but owing to half time for several months
and the entire stoppage for a short Inter
val, the consumption hos reduced for the
season 1893-94.

New York, Sept. 1.—The New York Cot

176,030 boles; Interior towns, 42,000 against
243,000 and 61,000 respectively last year—a
deficit of 96,00-0 bales. The amount on

than a year ago. The total visible sup.
ply In this country and Europe Is 2,006,000

two crops have since been made, aggre
gating 14,20X000 bales. The present visi

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Chicago, Sept. 1.—The start and the fin
ish on wheat today were weak, but there
was a stronger tone during the balance
of the session, the firmer action being
gocerned by tho strength of corn. De
liveries of wheat were quite; large for Sep
tember >, the foot being uppermost in
their minds when the market opened.
The alarm exhibited by corn shorts ban
ished every other consideration from the
thoughts of wheat traders and a prompt
change in the sentiment was experienced.
Those ‘who sold endeavored to buy back
the wheat they had parted with, und
those who were short in expectation that
the bottom was to fall on the market, ex
hibited uneasiness. After prices had ad
vanced, moderately, and phen it became
apparent that tho worst was over in corn,
the offerlnirs of wheat became free, a drop
taking place as a natural result. Decem
ber wheat opened from 66% to t>/; tfadng
at 5UH. Cash wheat was % lower than
yesterday.
, Corn—The bulls in corn were sorely dl*;
appointed at the Inglorious manner (n
which the market fl2aled>out today. For
that ‘matter, the shorts were chagrined
to think that they had allowed themselves
to be frightened Into the state of send-
panic that prevailed at theopening, when
the.price of September lifted almost 2c.
above where it cloeed yesterday. The
other options advanced in sympathy, but
did not participate to the full extent In
the grain for the current month. After
the demand from shorts had been satis
fied, and when it was apparent that there
were no new buying orders, offerings be
came larger, and as the half session was
nearing the end, corn became a drug,
and values .lost all the enchantment, and
la addlalon, declined below the final fig
urea "of yesterday. May opened at 631,4
sold between 64 and 53; closing at 63H.
September closed %c. undefr yesterday.
Cash corn was very Irrsgula-r, the open
ing waa to 2 cents hlgner; prices de-
clinig 1 tent and closing at the bottom.
Oats—The demand at the opening came
from the shorts, who emulating the action
of their brethren In com. The offering in
creased later, and there was less anxiety
to buy so that a decline took pie."a. The
close was He. under yesterday for May.
Cash oats were firm early, but ater were
easy, *4c. under yesterday.
Provisions—Packers offered liberally
with '.ess Interest being token in the mar
ket. The close was 12Hc. higher than
yesterday for January pork; 6c. higher for
January lord and unchanged for January
ribs. (
The leading ranged as follows:

LAMSON’S GRAIN LETTER.
Special Wire to Lyons & James.
Chicago, Sept. 1.—Wheat—A synopsis of
the past week's doings in the grain mar
kets does not disclose any great gain to
either contingent, though if anything,
the bear* have had the best of it, influ
ences in general belr.g of the character
thups intensifying that sentimeqt. The
flood of the northwestern receipts has been
one of tho principal factors, wnile tho
situation abroad 1st not encouraging. If
the Vienna figures are to be relied upon
France will have an exportable^surplus
of 33,000,000 bushels, while there Is fear on
that side of a much larger exportable* sur
plus from here than estimated, which,
firlghens buyers, who are asj holding off
in anticipation of the Argentine shipments
from the crop during the past week farm
ers deliveries of English wheat have ag
gregated about 143,200 bushels against hti,.
400 bushels the previous week, while prices
are about 3Hc. lower. A significant fact
that we can't very well avoid is that
there Is nbout 30,000,000 bushels of wheat
in public and private elevators In store
In Chicago, and if the price remains the
same until next Tuesday as It is today,
there will be a loss of $20,000 to holders in
the shape of carrying charges. It Is true
Chat there has been several spasmodic at
tempts at recovery by holders, „ut it bar
principally emanated from the sympathy
with corn, It being apparently Impossible
to put this cereal down through the talk
of wheat feeding, because the total avail
able wheat for stock feed would not go
far to supply the deflcrteacy In corn, where
as should this feeding become general,
It W4>uld take but a very short time to
consume our entire surplus and thus en
hance the value. The relative values at
present being decidedly In favor of an
economical ubc of corn and a liberal con
sumption of wheat. Trading the entire
week hat at no time been heavy and prin
cipally of a local character. Exports,
8.489,000 bushels art slightly better than
the previous week, but not to be com
pared with last year. The market today
showed some strength earfy, mostly on
covering by shorts. TOe estimate, how
ever, of 560 cars of com for Tuesioy, and
the the possibility of further increase In
the new receipts by that time,'bad x de
pressing effect and the market became
heavy, closing at about the lowest point
of the day.
Provisions have been fair and active
the entireweek, a fair speculative trade
lias been tranaxeted and prices have ruled
at u higher range, showing at the ciose of
the sessiontoday a gain of 29 to 86c. for
hollers for the week. Hogs have been
fairly active and the tight receipts have
ted better prices.
