The cotton review of tue sun says: FUTURES
advanced 235 points, closing point lower for
August and l point higher for October with
other options as last night. The rise was due
to an active and higher market in Liverpool,
and pretty good buying of August here, partl y
on foreign account. Crop advicss are generally
favorable, though in parts OF Mississippi dry
weather is needed. Cotton spot was firm. -

CHICAGO, Aug. THE undertone of wheat
was strong and buoyant to-day. and although
the bears made q stubborn fight over every
inch Of ground, the market averaged and closed
somewhat over the best prices of yesterday.
The strongest feature of the market was the
non-delivery of any wheat this morning and
the fact that what went around yesterday after
the close of change landed with prominent
operator who was supposed to be manipulating
july. The reported decrease for July in Liver
pool stocks of wheat also had a stimulating
feet The movement of grain showed an in
crease to-day. Late cables reported spot wheat
crate sellers of wheat here. Prices. though
fluctuating narrowly, closed small fractions
higher than yesterday for leading futures
Corn was fair Y active early and higher The
better feeling was due largely to the active
de nand for cash, which is selling about NC pre-
MUM over August. Deliveries on August were
next to nothing. Operators that usually trade
in wheat were giving corn more attention, and
q good many were noticed in the pit to-day
and their purchases had considerable to do with
the early activity The market opened shade
better was firm and advanced SIC, eased off
some ruled firm and closed 14036c higher than
Yesterday Oats were fairly active but weaker
Mess pork was moderately active; opening "a
n1Oc higher, a reduction of l0012I5c was
quickly submitted to. Toward the close prices
rallied 15mI715c and closed steady. Lard was
frmer and sales were made at 5GQ718c advance
which was moderately we'll supported Short
stron er. Early i'll the day sales were made at
56a71bc advance, but partially receded about
the middle of the session; towards the close
ra Ilied again and closed steady.
