CHICAGO. July 29-The wheat market
f1uctuated rather wildly to-day, conflicting
reports concerning the crops. The opening was
weak, September wheat selling off to $3.50, but
rose TO 90sc on reports of storms IN Dakota and
Minnesota, and serious damage to the spring
wheat crop Buying orders became more
numerous from the outside, and the temper
of the market during the middle session
became quite buoyant This ceased, how
ever, toward the close of the regular
board, and the closing in the afternoon
was shout the lowest figures of the day. The
reports from Minnesota and Dakota indicated
wide storm area and scorching weather, produc-
ing rust and causing serious damage TO the
growing grain. There were more reassuring
reports from certain sections, but the general
tenor of the advices gloomy. Foreign advices
