CHICAGO, Ill, Aug.r5,-The wheat specula-
tive market was again decidedly lacking in snap
to-day, local interest being of Indifferent sort,
with outside buyers as scarce as ever. The
general situation was, in fact, without a single
new or interesting feature IN corn moderate
degree OF speculative activity was manifested IN
the market early, but as the session advanced
the pit became quiet and hfeless. Trading in
pork was only moderate. a fair trade was re-
ported in lard early. Local shorts were pur-
chased in moderate quantities, and, offerings
being somewhat light, prices We're sdvanceal
5G nc. Later the feeling was easier and pTtees
settled back again 10 ~ 05c, closing steadgE' A
light trade was done in ribs. sSf
