-No. 1, 1.12½. Daily Grain Letter THOMSON McKINNON. Chicago, Sept. WHEAT -What looked like the start of a good upturn in the early market action gave place to complete demoralization in the late trading with prices off three cents from the early high point and below any level reached since August, 3rd, the early strength was due to higher stocks and cotton markets, Arm Liverpool cables some reports of unfavorable crop conditions in Argentina and advices of the formation of a European pool to take over 50.000,000 bushel of Farm Board wheat.
A sharp break in cotton started the late selling here and the decline was accelerated by stop O1 ders which were caught in increasing volume on the way down. Primary receipts the largest in some time. Wheat accumulated during the past month is apparently in process of liquidation which may extend further but our disparity with other. markets is being rapidly corrected. COARSE GRAINS- Corn showed an excellent tone early but weakened with wheat in the late trading and shared to some extent in the demoralization.
Country selling moderate, bookings 70,000, cash steady to higher. Oats were under some hedging pressure but held fairly steady in face of the weakness In other grains. PROVISIONS- Lard held steady in face of general weakness with cash houses buving the nearby months. Hog steady, to strong early but closed weak. N.
Y. Stock Letter THOMSON McKINNON. New York. Sept. -Declining commoditv prices cut short the rally in stocks stimulated by the more encouraging trade news.
particularly concerning the steel and electrical power industries. The Industrial news, together with more favorable developments in Germany's political affairs, momentarily superceding the Maine upset, resulted in a better feeling at the outset and an extension of yesterday's late recovery in prices. The sharp break in wheat. however, later unsettled the market and led to resumption 02 belated liquidation. It 13 apparent that buying power in stocks has suffered by the severity of the readjustment.
Rallies lack the enthusiasm that accompanied the upturn prior to Labor Day. While it is encouraging to note the increased operations of steel mills and higher electrical output, we still remain at a low level of activity, which will not yield satisfactory earnings. The market, we believe will for the tims being adhere more to the fundamental business background and sustained strength from here must depend upon more improvement than has 50 far been revealed. GRAIN MARKETS Chicago, Sept. 14 -Plunging downward three cents a bushel from an early high point, wheat today made ragged Anish at almost the bottom level reache.
Attention of traders during the late dealings became focused on uncertainties regarding an address delivered by Governor Roosevelt this afternoon touching the agricultural situation. The contents of the address were not known until after grain trading had ended, and with many stop-loss selling orders disclosed the pit WAS almost bare of buying orders toward the last. Wheat closed unsteady, cents under yesterday's finish. corn down, oats unchanged to off, and provis10n5 varying from cents decline to a rise of 7 cents. Late hesitancy to purchase wheat was ascribed in various quarters to a general disposition to await definite knowledge regarding the agricultural policy sponsored by Governor Roosevelt as the Democratic presidential candidate.
Broadening of selling pressure quickly developed when it WAS apparent that the market was without any aggressive buying support. Big export sales of North American wheat, about 2.000.000 bushels, chiefly Canadian, but said to include some hard winter wheat from the United States, did good deal to lift values in the Arst halt of the day. Corn and cate mainly followed wheat. Export business in white corn for immediate shipment was noted. but as rule exports bids were 2 cents out of line.
Provisions averaged higher, responsive to action of hog values. WHEAT- Close Close Open. High. Low. Sep.14 Sep.13 Sept.Old New Dec.
