| CHICAGO, Aug. &.-There was a badly mixed
| market on wheat to-day Prices bobDed about,
| according to the feelings of the crowd without
| any apparent good reasons for actions and re-
actions. Easy cables early caused wheat to
trade was for reaction. IN opposition to this
| element were the bulls who took hold not to let
| go. The elements waged war all day, with the
| sentiment bulliSh one hour and bearish next,
| but with prices tending gradually lower, except
| for one or two strong rallies. Shortly before
| the close prices were off Nc for September, &c
| for October, and 214c for December. There
| was more caution about selling September
| short, and it was easier to sustain. September
| sold at 6916c, up TO 9QSSc, down to 9014c, up TO
9016c, and back to 89&4c. October sold between
| S934c and 9O76c Wheat closed fairly firm at
about &c under last night. There was fair
| speculative business in corn, the feeling de-
| veloped being weaker within lower range of
| prices. Influences affecting the market were
| mainly local, chief OF which were the easier
| tone of wheat and the heavy receipts. The
| market opaned Nc under the closing prices of
| yesterday, sold or in all 1GDliSc, reacted some,
| and closed 14011sc lower the nearer flu
lures, and h(G9sc lower on the more deferred
| deliveries. Oats were easier, with some
| shrinSage in values for cash and all deliveries
| occurred. The weakness of corn was to some
| extent influential in bringing about this change,
\ but the demand for oats was also quite tame.
| There was A11fc decline in prices Fluctua-
| tions in provisions we're again within narrow
| limits and there was not much in the market
| throughout October pork closed at the top,
| Sl4 05, an advance of 216c per barrel over last
| night, and ribs at s. 40, making the same gain
Lard rested at SO 2116 for October, sc lower
| than yesterday.
