CHICAGO, July 9-Some unusual conditions
presented themselves in the wheat market
to-day, but in spite of such depressing Influences
as thrust themselves in, the ma9ket bore up
with good deal Of irmness and ruled firm
rather than weak. possible exception to this
statement would be the situation on the curb
prior to the regular opening, when some big
lines of long wheat, previously bought on orders
from a trader. were sold for his account the
deals being unprotected by sufficient margins.
OF this wheat, there was probably little over
one million bushels and the dumping process
broke August down from 1870, where 1T closed
last night to 7o3c. where il opened this morning.
After that time the Dwyer wheat ceased entirely
to cut any figure in the market, and buying by
strong local parties contributed more or less
strength. Within an hour after the opening
wheat sold at 79sc. The first reac-
ton carried the market back to 7Sac
during which downward movement there was
more or less long wheat brought out, and sales
made to realize. After noon August picked up
to solo, and remained very steady at that figure.
Pork to-day showed spasmodc strength and
weakness. The September option sold from
So. So down to So 81, then up to So 72a. and of
to So. GIL. The trade in hog products was not
large nor very active. Small grains generally
followed the lead set by wheat, put We're with
