CHICAGO, Aug. 2S The weakness again was
a feature on the Board of Trade TO day aud
everything closed lower, wheat going below the
dollar mark. Trading in cereals was light, but
provisions was fairly active. Wheat opened
weak and lower, but there we're plenty Of buy
ing orders around 81 90 for Dece noer and their
execution caused a temporary upward move
ment December started at 81 coal 00N, but
soon advanced to 81 005s. Then came a lot of
selling orders chiefly from New York, and
renewed weakness was tae result, the price
quickly dropping to 81 co. Here some stop loss
orders were reached and the price was made ST
$3.50 with one or two sales at 9914c. Buying
ordeaS at 81 90 again came into p ay and the
crowd. starting to take the profits the earlier
sales made at over that price soon put the
market up again. The advance was again
checked when 81 OILS had been reached. An
other slump to 81 90 followed, but the buyers
at that price were upon this occasion over
whelmed by the vim of the sellers. who, with
things going their way, pressed their va1taSe
and crowded the price down to 99j5c about ten
minutes from the close. The resting price was
at 999Bc. The news was all bearish. The for
elgn markets readily acc liesced in conce sslons
in the prices offered fro.n this side, and cable
grams received this morning reflected the weak
est sort of feeling, mOr3 especially at Liverpool
The northwest continued to send in dispatches
DENYING any serious damage to wheat from the
recent trOStS. The chief influencing factor to-
ward the end of the session was evidence being
furnished ythe estimated receipts for Monday
t1at the movement of winter wheat was not
likely to let UP in volume at present, $40 cars
being the probable inspection returns for the
first day of next week. The corn market was
parallel to wheat in irregularity of the opening
hnr sold Mt frnTt Ia va r,rft,
cipaly. however, around the lover quotation.
There was heavy business done for about ten
minutes near the opening, but it Quoted down
after that time and only subjecie ed during
the remainder of the session % occasional spurts
al activity. nervous feeling prevailed. and
the movements of the clique brokers were
watched very closely. Receipts were much
heavier than had been looked for, 9]6 cars,
against the estimates made yesterday OF $50
cars, and for Monday 1,02 cars were the pre-
dicted receipts. Later the weakness in wheat
was reflected in the corn pit, and October, after
having touched 571bc when wheat reached its
highest figure, broke to 5526c, but rallied some
and closed at 5516c. The heaviest business
in oats was done early in the day. The market
was fairly active, but weak. Heavy receipts
free selling and slump in the other cereals
were the influences that governed the mlrket.
There was temporary steadiGeSS in the mar
ket for hog products at the opening, due to the
receipts of hogs being oaly $500, compared
with 5000 estimated yesterday. and an active
demand for them being reported from the
yards. Inc weakness IN corn and wheat caused
q stop to any general desire to buy hogs. as
small receipts at the yards had started, and the
steadiness gave place to weakness, which was
the character of the business during the greater
part OF the session The closing prices were
from nc TO l2lec lower for pork and 2IkGa5c
lower for lard and ribs
