CHICAGO, August 4.-There was a firm
| feeling in wheat early in the day, with high
| er prices, but the market closed easier in
the latest transactions. The crop news from
| the Northwest was generally Of an u~nfayor-
| able tenor, and the rumor Of more fighting
on the Afghan frontier caused unessiness,
which caused the market to advance !@4c
at the opening. The market maintained
this advance during 9 good share OF the
early session, assisted some by the filling OF
buying orders on foreign account. About
IL o'clock the market eased of &c and be-
came weak, closing about &c lower than on
Saturday. Flour-Quiet and unchanged.

and rumored foreign complications, prices
