CHICAGO, July 31.-About the usual
Saturday market prevailed to-day, which
is equivalent to statement that prices
were easier and averaged rather lower, as
in general way the wheat crowd. the
same as corn traders, are long" more or
less stuff. which they do not feel disposed,
under the circumstances, to carry over
Sunday. In corn the situation would have
been more bullsh if there had not been a
little rain recently. This has weakened
holders little and induced the belief
that the backbone of the drouth
may be broken. Reports to-day, however,
agree that no rain in any great quantity has
fallen in the corn belt since yesterday.
The top of today'S corn market was at the
opening of the session. On the open board
it is said to have sold between 443sc and
44Tc. The curb was 445Sc. The regular
market was opened at 44S4c. Some sold
at 45c. Counselman was taking i'll about
all the corn he could get early in the day.
Crosby, Norton. Worthington, Leslie,
Pickering, and others gave him lots vary
ing in size from 10000 to 45, 900.
WHEN THE MARKET REACTED
to 4415c, again strengthened and sold at
4514c then broke to 4436c. and during the
latter part OF the session ruled rather slow
and featureless. Receipts here were 3S4
cars, which was considered heavy. At
times wheat showed moderate strength, but
it came from the outside rather than from
any friendship shown the market in a local
way. Milmine, Bodman & Crittenden
and other houses having Eastern connec-
tions did the bulk of the bulling, presume
bly, on New York account. September
opened at 775sc, saged down to II sc, and
was then forced up to 7Sc sellers,
but from that point went straight
off to 761sc. and toward the
close hung doggedly around nc.
Receipts here 232 cars. There was little
afioat iii the way of news, the market fol-
lowing about the course laid down by corn
and took the direction i'll which it was
forced by purely local influence. Early
buyers were free sellers toward 1 o'clock,
crowding September down to 76%c, but it
recovered little and closed easy at 76%c.
Ten boat loads were reported taken at New
York. Provisions of all kinds were firm,
though not keeping up the whole advance.
September pork sold up to $10.25, but re-
acted to $10.1215.
