! CHICAGO, August 81. - Prices on the

the feeling was still feverish. In the wheat
pit the bulls made several attempts to score

with deluge of wheat from the longs, who
found the opportunity for realizing TOO
| tempting TO be resisted. Great export
clearances, strong cables and rumors OF a
probable removal Of German duties were
| the news advices of Importance. Wheat
opened strong and higher on receipt OF
! higher cables In the afternoon private
cables reported drop Of I'd in Liverpool,
which caused a big selling movement. In
| the last hour Of the session wheat got
strong again on heavy exports but was
unable TO hold il and the market weakened,
