- IOHe mas prevailed To-Day, ana August
was pretty well preserved all day, the market
closing steady at an advance of points. The
gains appeared to be ma lily due to covering Of
short sales which were made during the past
week, under the conclusion that the upward
movement had eliminated. We understand
there is 4 shipment of 400 bales cotton of low
! grades, which can't be delivered on contract in
| Liverpool, and is now on its way from Liverpool
| back to New York Little interest has been
manifested in the fluctuations of new crop
| months Some disposition shown to hold
| September at Saturdays values, while the re
m|lnder OF the list freely offered have declined
| lG2 points. Spot cotton is held firmly. Sales
last week not before reported 3,i0) bales for

| CHICAGO, July 23.-The crowd was inclined to
| be bearish in wheat to-day, and no amount of
| bull news or figures had any effect more than
| to keep prices about steady. Where very large
| drops we're expected at st. Louis, they FELL far
! below the estimates. Where there was much
| talk and some show OF a slight increase in the
| visible supply for the week, there came de
crease o; 5000 bushels 1t was after the
| figures were posted that August wheat sold
| back to 79c. August sold early at 50M0s09sc,
| and back shortly before the close to 1910
| September sold early at 1870 and then off NC
| with August, There was race between n
| heavy operator and the crowd to sell wheat Just
| before the closes WHICH caused n sharp decline
| of few fractions August closed at ,93Ac, or
| NC lower than on Saturday September ~ &c.
| IL was with corn as with wheat Prices were
| held fairly steady early, what weakness was
| noticeable being credited TO large receipts.
| which were rs cars more than estimated of 4s5
| cars for Tuesday, causing free selling There
| was also disposition to pound the market on
| the part Of half n dozen local houses and it was
not difficult with these receipts, to bring prices
| down July declined from 47c to 4G1sc. August
! sold from 4635c to 46Ac down to 1870. up TO
! 46I4c, down at the close to 461sc Sept 'mber
| touched 454c, closing at 455Ac. Oats opened
| easy and ruled weak all the way through The
estimate of receipts for tomorrow we're more
| liberal and placed at 175 cars. In addition to
this feature the demand from July shorts which
was so marked last Saturday, was not present
to such extent to-day. This month opened
about steady, but later sold off nc to 3OAc. A
moderate call existed for August and Septem-
Der, which were 1s8Ac lower, while long
futures we're dull, with slight demand for May
at 4 corresponding decline. A decidedly strong
tone pcrvaded the provision market and prices
averaged higher. Last sales showed A net gain
over Saturday Of 15c on short ribs, Eve on
lard and NC on pork Trading was large, but
mainly of local character shorts being the
den ed less of n disposition TO sell and forced
buyers TO bid up To secure il. English houses
bought lard and a few outside buying orders
were received for short ribs. The opening sales
We're the lowest and the closing nearly at the
highest.
