CHICAGO, Aug. l0-Fine weather and a
lack Of bullish influences resulted in an opening
for the wheat market to-day &c lower than the
close OF Friday. There were plenty of buyers,
however, and the opening quotations were the
lowest of the day. The improved tone of foreign
markets had strengthening effect here. though
the demand for no article on the grain list was
sufficiently active to result in more than ordi-
nary heavy days business The splendid pros
poets for the new corn crop prevented anything
like boom in that article, still receipts being
only fair, the market could hardly be called
weak, being dull and heavy at a slight decline
