The Chicago Rccord-Ilerald: “At the present moment It looks os though the public was speculating In wheat oil the Inapt rat Ion ^furnished by sales of cash wheat made at lower prices rather than on any thing that Is developing now,” said Presi dent James Pettit, of the Peavey Grain Company. ”1 do lint argue from this that wheat will sell lower, as I expect to tee It range pretty high for some time. It has been the recent experience, however, that our sales of wheat abroad have beenon the weak spots nnd not ou the bulges.” Harvesting of wheat has made favorable progress tu most l*art* of the Northwest during tho week, says The Northwestern, Miller advance proofs, its wired to Logan- Bryan.

Corn wna up 7-8#l l-4c, but o^fts slumped 3-8® 5-8c. Provisions were about steady. Free profit taking s^les caused nil the markets to weaken late. James Carruthers, the Montreal exporter, who la doubtless long a big line of wheat futures at Chicago, as well as of cash In the Canadian market, left a message saying that frost Is predicted In west ern Canada for Saturday night and Sunday night by the Winnipeg weath er bureau. This message was the cause of a general stampede of shorts to cover, and the offerings being held rather tightly, those wanting It were obliged to bid up for It, and prices soared upward In a lively manner. Tho Kentucky September report, as wired by C. A. King & Co., of Toledo, Ohio, ninkes the corn condition 91 against 89 In August and 100 last September, when the crop was 5,000.000 bushels. Oats yield 18 bushels per acre, against 21 a year ago In Kentucky. Corn held strong on cooler weather and unfavorable reports, but Investors ns well as shorts made liberal pur chases of the entire list, Oats refused to stand up under tree profit •taking by longs, and a break in the September was sharp from the highest prices reached. Provisions were dull and prices nar row. WEATHER REPORT. . WEATHER CONDiTlONS.

Good railroad stocks are still cheap, and we can not become bearish at these figures on the Hills nnd Hardmans, St. Paul, Atchison, Heading. Baltimore, Delx/.vare and Hudson, Northwestern, Illinois Central, Louisville and Atlantic Coast Line. We ltdnk, however, that these stocks are all purchasable, In all like lihood, at more attractive levels next week, as a reaction is to be looked for in view of the advance of 5 to 10 points from recent levels. Amalgamated does not act very well, and New York Cen tral, for fear ot a dividend reduction, lags behind other rails, and bearish pressure Is to be leaked for In these stocks. We can see no Inducement on the long side of cotton at these figures and would advlst watting for a good reac tion before going long for a turn.
