$500 p. m.-The mark cts to-day opened quiet
but stronger; prices soon eased of, however.
owing TO reports of Larger receipts Of wheat
in st. Louis and to a rumOr that a dry goods
house in that city had failed. Corn was strong,
advancing from yesterdays closing figures;
Hutchinson X Hobbs and COmstock were re-
ported TO be large buyers of corn, while Adj
ans was the leading seller; the strength in
this market was attributed to a reduction in
the supply in sight, and the fact that there is
not great deal of the speculative grade in
the country to come forward. Wheat was duh
but tOlerably steady during the first hour, in
sympathy with corn. oats were quiet but
drmer. Provisions opened quiet and declined
sharply near the close. meats falling of 35c
per cwt from the highest price of the day, but
closing steadier; the break was due to a ru-
NOR that yellow fever had appeared in New

port, wheat closing at the lowest figures Of the
