CHICAGO, Aug. 24.-The war feeling dis
appeared very largely from the wheat market
to day. The cables were very pacific in tone
and British consols were quoted higher.
People who had purchased quantities of wheat
in Europe were anxious to dispose of their
holdings. The starting sales for October de-
livery ranged anywhere from S0asgtSlc. cut
the market gradually fell off to SosHc, rallied
to SO5sc, sank to 1890, rallied trihe and
closed at so slice. Prospects of large re-
ceipts of spring served to aid the de-
cline. In corn there was good buyipg in
small lots most of the day. Values remained
steady all day. Oats were quiet and I'M
changed. Provisions were inclined 70 be
weak. Pork lost about 1Oc per hbl for tho
October option. The receipt in the pit OF an
ORDER to sell 1000 tierces of october lard
broke the market 15c before the order could
be filed Trading in all kinds of hog product
was remarkably light. and its own weight,
coupled with the weaker feeling at the yards,
were the only causes TO be ascrlbed Tor the
weakness of the market. Flour WAS quiet
and unchanged. Wheat weaker, closing 1c

DULUTH, Mimi, Aug. 24.-Wheat dropped
BACK 4 good Dig pace To-Day, closing 1c DelcW
last night. The shorts evidently had control
of the market most of the day, and made use
or the opportunity to put values down.
Everything was bearish most OF the tirae.
The bulls seemed to have crawled into their
holes for the time being. Heavy receipts
OF spring wheat here and at other
markets undoubtedly had considerable
to do with the weakness. Wheat receipts
here for the week are already well on to SOC
cars and at least 100000 bushels greater than
the shipments, which do not promise to be
large at any time this week, while receipts
will doubtless keep up and probably reach
Loco cara, against about SIS cars last week
The movement is almost entirely Oh the Man
itoba road. New wheat does not yet make its
appearance in any quantity, but is begin.
