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.

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: FUTURE QUOTATIONS. WHEAT— Open High Low 7.72H 7.72H 7.1TH CASH QUOTATIONS. Flour was quiet and Inactive. Prices were steady. No. 2 spring wheat 63H to 54H. No. 2 red &3H. No. 2 com 66%. No. 2 oats. 29Ua%.

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. Lunsoh, Bros. & Co. Charleston, Sept. 1.—Turpentine ffrm at 2jH^. Receipts. 6 casks.
