Besides, port re ceipts exceeded tne estimate tor me week and Liverpool made no response to tne advance here yesterday, ana there vv some local long selling, some raiding, however, by prominent operators »eanj contributed to tne depreasion. m* aecttrr was cot great, however, mere was ut tics for this port are as follows: Total salesof the week... mto Trado takings.

Wheat started sort and stumpy on me Urge receipts m the northwest, indincr- ent cables, and the .act that tne receipts In Chicago overran the estimates. as heretofore, the weakness in com nad its effect on weak traders, but wnue selling by conmlsshm houses were quite general. It seemed to be in entirely small lots] there being no conspicuous trading. Trad ing was rather light all day, tne market fluctuating, within a very narrow range. The pouting or large estimator receipts for tomorrow tended still Turtner to weak en the market, but towards tne close, 11 ruled fairly steady at tne; decline. De cember wheat opened at 6*fcaw&; soia oe- tween 5€%a56*4; closing 66*-%c. unaer yesterday. Cash wheat was quiet; pnees were VsA lower with the option*.

The principal ructor] however, was the receipts, whten was very large, overrunning me estimates oy 39 car*. This caused a weaker feeling ana discouraged holders, with me result mat the market opened %a%c. lower man it closed yesterday. Free selling by commie- 4ion houses, who hod been prominent buyers' for some days past,' tended to •till further weaken the market, it neia fairly steady at the decline until tne large estimated receipts for tomorr were posted, when it broke to 63%—tne bottom figure or the day.

Special Wire to Lyons & James. ‘ Chicago, Sept. 14.—with a tmek near sen tlment prevailing, trade principally local, the wheat market opened with a decline of % to %c. from yesterdays close, wui: considerable dumping by tne scalping ele ment, the shorts guinea an additional %c at which point there was some fair buy ing, but the market being devoid of snap and sympathy with depression witn corn was too weak to recover, caused by mt fear of a further depression by primary receipt*, light ekport and Increase in tit visible supply caused considerable selling by those who have heretofore displayed a friendly feeling toward this cereal, do long as receipts at primary points are so much in excess of domestic milling and foreign demand, as to cause a weekly in crease of 1,000,oot> to 2,WU,W0 bushels, we can see nothing but ti beansn market ahead at least to the extent ot carrying charges. Corn—It Is evident that a case or tne last straw breaking of the camel's back. Thotnan comes in-this morning Witn a 1,627,000,000 corn crop, and tne last vestige of faith In the government's figures sunk Into oblivion, the market opening % to %c. under the ciose of yesterday, me large local receipts, 463 cars, nad a very depressing effect and persistent liquidation declined prices % to %c. towards tno mid dle of the session, a littio strengtn was displayed on predictions or trost and cold weather, but was not sustained, tn« the raiding tactics ot certain speculators proving too successful, and later tne post, ins of 659 cars for tomorrow proved seom* what of a puzzle to the May option ana touched 63%, a decline or i%e. rrom tne closing quotations or yesterday. Oats-With a fairly active opening, though at a shade lower m price, oats were firm, considering the weaknecs in the other cereals, tho sentiment, however, of local operators was of tne same order as prevailed In the other markets, ana regardless* or every %c. decline, tne mar ket rallied heavy and depressed, prices at tho close “showing a-loss of %c. Provisions opened, baraiy steaay at a shado lower; prices suffered a break ot 25 to 30c. In January pork, which caugnt many stop orders on tho way down, me trading has not been neavy and principal* ly at n local character. Hogs at the yards were aboat ns expected' and ruled nrm and active with best gradas 6 cents nigner, others 5 to 10 cents lower; poor demand for caah^ product. . — y Northeastern railroad indorsed 6 per cent, bonds.
