CHICAGO, August 3.-There was a firm
feeling in wheat early in the day, with high
er prices, but the market closed easier in
he latest transactions. The crop news from
the Northwest was generally Of an unfsvor-
able tenor, and the rumor of more fighting
on the Afghan frontier caused ~uneasiness,
which caused the market to advance 2@4c
at the opening. The market maintained
this advance during q good share of the
early session, assisted some by the filling OF
| buying orders on foreign account. About
| IL o'clock the market eased off &c and be-
came weak, closing about &c lower than on
Saturday. Flour-Quiet and unchanged.

and rumored foreign complications, prices
advanced 4@3c, but fell back on better crop
! news and lack OF support, closing &c higher
