REPORT BEARISH ON GRAIN, SAYS INTER-OCEAN CHICAGO, Sept. 10 -The Inter-Ocean*' says: "Contrary to expectation, the govern ment report showed 10.000.000 bushels less wheat than generally figured on, although the estimate of 300,000,000 bushels of spring wheat was confirmed. The trade, however, considered the report bearish. The report on other grains was also con sidered bearish, especially on corn and oats, as new records were set, and even with bad weather ther ecan not be enough loss to bring the crop under the previous high marks. In the seven corn states there is an increase of 240,000,000 bushels over last year, which Is regarded as bear ish by most traders, but technically the situation in regard to eash corn makes bears slow about selling the near futures.
