offered At less than SOC for the first time since
April OF the present year. The first decline
brought out some large blocks of ''long''
wheat, which helped the downward tendency.
After the market had touched SIC, the de-
mand became more pronounced, and prices
rallied lc, fell OF &c, huctuated, and closed
on the regular board nc under Yesterday.
There was another sharp rally Ia the after
noon, and the market finally closed nc under

BALTIMORE, Aug. ls.-The wheat market
IL in a very depressed condition here, and an
opportunity has been afforded to those VINO
have to make future deliveries to make
handsome profit. On Aug. ] 93c was bid for
spot and 1890 for October. To-day the bid for
spot was Ssl4c, or a decline OF 4lsc. aud CSC for
October, decline Of sac per bushel A like
decline in Southern wheat has occurred. ant.
there is good deal OF apprehension for the
result. Every possible effort has been made
to MAINTAIN prices, but almost an entire alb
sence of foreign demand has broken the
market, though there are plenty OF bottoms
ready to engage TO take it TO Liverpool for Id
per bushel. Sales are quite large, but the pur-
chasers are those who have cold at an adj
vance, and will fill their contracts at large
profit.
