| CHICAGO, Aug. while wheat was weak and
strong by turns to-day, the tendency was
| downward. Bulls were deceived into selling
| lot of long stuff early, and after the rally,
| which took prices up very near to the closing
| points on Monday, they fought the second de-
cline vigorously. Cables were not in harmony,
but on the whole gave conditions as little i'm
proved in France and Germany The crowd
discovered that the bulge ut the close yesterday
| was manipulated, and September opened &c
| lower with a crowd of sellers, which took
| prices down to S316c, or 11sc under last night.
| When the furry was over good buying feel
| ing was created. and on the news of cold, wet
| weather in the Northwest and fair export clear
| anceS, the price was advanced 1c from the bot
tom point. The last two hours of the session
| found September between $3.50 and S414c and
| stubborn. Wheat closed PC under last night
| and sc over bottom prices, with September at
S316c. Corn sold with Ac range early but to-
| ward che close the changes very small
| and at the close September was but 1sc under
| the closing prices yesterday Receipts were
| very liberal-075 cars-and this, together with
| the most fourshing crop reports from some
| quarters, made the market weak, and prices
| opened 16c under ana uScDneu a rev points.
September sold at 4jlac, down to 4514QI4j@sc.
Then the shorts began buying freely, and the
price was put up to 45c and the close was 4514c.
Oats attracted only moderate degree of at
| tenton, and with fair volume of trade and
steady 10 firm feeling, a fair business was
transacted in provisions, but it was of an in
and-out character. Some of the largest traders,
who bought freely early, changed and sold be-
| fore the close. Arrivals of hogs were fair, and
| prices 56l10c higher This had Strengthening
| effect on traders of hog products early, and
| pork after drop of SC, advanced 15c, but re-
ceded SC and closed at Sl4 42Is, a gain of 10c
over yesterday. Armour & Co. were the prin-
| cipal sellers. Buying was scattered. Lard
closed 21sc lower. Short RIBS were traded in
| freely, and closing sales showed an advance
| of sc.
