GRAIN QUOTATIONS

WAGNER'S GRAIN LETTER CHICAGO, Sept 3. - Much talk of the current six day decline may run thirty to sixty days. No change in conditions can be detected. Some believe old cash corn is headed for $1.50. Ogdon Armour's remarks, absence of

buyers, forecast for continued dull

export demand, signs. of 2,800 or over corn crop, liquidation of rye longs, and ease of irovisions are among the factors. Some think December corn should sell at $1.20. Overnight the feeling is easy. Prices are evidently coming down to stay. CHICAGO GRAIN RANGE Furnished by E. W. WAGNER & CO., 212 Union National Bank Building. Phc.2 1720. CHICAGO, Sept. 3.
