CHICAGO. Aug 1Ss-The audience in the pub
lie galleries overlooking the trading pits was
as OVERLOOKING as on any of the three preceding
they stood to observe lacked the absorbing
features of interest which were Witnessed Sat.
urday and Monday. The close of the market
yesterday at 81 Oh for December wheat left it
denuded of sensational, addenda which the exr
element had added 10 the naturally strong con
dtion of affairs. The foreign markets had lost
a good deal of yesterdays buoyancy and trade
on this side appeared to crave rest. The princi.
pal fluctuations in December wheat up to about
ten minutes of the close the session were as fol
| lows: Opened at from 81 O3@. 03l1, then sold
at 81 o2, 81 O3, 81 0e1@ 81 os, 81 021@ 81 0tIS,
| highest point of the day was reached about IL
| o'clock and the advance which occurred then
| made the quotation 81 041k, and was caused by
| a New York dispatch, which reported that Rus
| STA had included wheat in the order prohibiting
| exports. She weakness which the market
| showed in the latter part OF the session was due
to lower quotations from foreign market. There
was a short-lived squirt from ST 02I61D1 03S6
about ten minutes from the close, but the mar
| ket quickly dropped 1411xc. December priv
| ileges for Wednesday were quoted around 99lec
and 81 on. The corn market chopped up and
| down, mostly between 63c and Csc, with ex-
| IRENE prices at 62J4c and 651kc for September.
| This future opened around 631sc, with sales at
| 63c and 6314c at the same time, then it touched
| 6234c and rose to 63ezc in short order. Then it
| sold at 631Ac and went, with the bulge in wheat
and covering of shorts, to 65c, TO 6454c to 6514c
third time before o'clock. August sold mostly
| between CSC and 66Iac. There was less action
| in late futures. White & Co. and Hutchinson
| & Co. were the leading buyers early, followed
| by shorts. Corn became very buoyant in the
| last half hour and reached the best prices of
the day. August was quoted at 67}Ac at the
|
| 6s14c over yesterday. October ranged between
| 5T34c aud 501kc. September corn puts sold at
