review says: Futures opened with an uucer-
tain appearance, presently declined further,
closing quiet and steady at a decline of II points
on August and points other months from
yesterdays closing prices. The market was
without supporting influence to-day and values
lost portion of the recent advance receding
IN fact, more than they improved yesterday
The Liverpool market remained closed, and the
weather at the south was so much more favor
able TO crop prospects that some selling orders
came from that direction. In fact, it began to
be considered that tle late rains had inflicted
no serious injury. In the last hour there was
less pressure to sell, but no urgency of buy
ing

CHICAGO. Aug. 4.-The wheat market was
strong and weak by turns to-day and the close
was about Nc lower than on yesterday. The
market was chiefly governed by outside advices,
and as these were more or less contradictory
the market was kept Seesawing around the
ing. Later it was said to be weak and lower.
Liverpool, which had been enjoying a couple of
holidays, was frst quoted Cd higher, and then
IL was said that buyers were holding of. There
was suspicion that reports were being ma
nipulated. Nearly all of the later private ad-
vices were weak, but the Board of Trades cable
quoted Paris IS confines higher, Antwerp %
centimes higher and Berlin marks higher on
