Hubbard. Price & Co. S cotton circular saws:
There has been less pHnarnl animation. with
the cost averaging somewhat lower for August
contracts. The bull element appeared willing
to let prices run off little and then came in
to brace the position. AT the opening free
selling for foreign account depressed values for
August, but after a loss of IL points from yes
terday's close, there was recovery of points,
1t seems that the bull clique has been working
vita the evident objective idea to shake out
long interest and to create new shorts. Dealing
in new crop months is small, and prices a frac-
ton above yesterdays close. "

CHICAGO, July 31.-The tables were turned in
wheat and corn on change to-day. Wheat was
weak and closed 214c lower than yesterday.
Corn sold 1c higher early without apparent rea-
son and closed NC higher. The wheat m .rket
was fl kle one. 1t was not until the price by
successive dips and rallies worked its way down
&c under the closing price of yesterday that
many Of the enthusiastic bulls could see that
the bulge was a thing of the past and that the
market was not weak, but heavy. Curb infiu-
ences were given undue force and there was
great disappointment, both here and at New
York, when prices opened 1c lower for leadicg
futures, with others dragging. Export clear
ances of wheat and -four from Atlantic ports
were $4,000 bushels, and the bulls began to fear
that the export buying reported did not mean
much. There is talk of quiet selling by leaders
