| CHICAGO Ills, August 4.-lt was an un-
easy, feverish day in the wheat pit. Trad
! ing was scant Prices ran up and down
several times within a range Of &c and
| left off about &c lower than on the day be-
| fore. The Walker failure came too late TO
| be a factor, but it was more or less dis
counted for some time. The weaker open
| ing was due to the bank failure at ST.
| Paul. some cholera scare and rumors
of troubles in mercantile houses here.
Gables. too, were lower, which helped TO
weaken the market, but the large clear
ances and good buying orders had the ef-
| feet of changing the decline and prices
were advanced, then eased of again
on moro bank failures in the
Northwest. Operators seemed In
clined to buy, but the disquieting
runors had bad effect. Trading was
mainly of a local character. There was no
rain where most needed and no prospect
of any, making the shorts in corn alarmed at
the outlook for the crop. Corn averaged
strong and closed Nc higher. Oats, dull
