Chicago. aug. 10.-Everything on change
showed great strength to-day and closed at
an advance Wheat is lc. better Corn and
oats Notwithstanding reports shat the big
drought is broken, retained &c. gain each.
Provisions, despite yellow fever at Pensacola,
had very few soft spots and closed zoe higher
for lard, l5c. for pork and 100 for ribs. A
large source of the strength was dispatch
from New York saying only ls00O0)O of
clearing house certificates issued
have really been used, and
that this amount can easily be retired by gold
coming from Europe or by the additional eur
rency now being taken out by the banks.
Wheat at the opening was about &c. higher
than yesterday closing figures, declined q
q. &c. then became frmer again and prices
were advanced sc. held fairly steady and the
closing was about "a lc higher than yester-
day, The break of q an &c. was caused by
the Nashville failures and on large offerings,
influenced by an easy feeling In corn,
attributed to reports of rains in the
west Later the market was very
strong again on good buying and only small
offerings. English cables were little more
encouraging. There were reports OF consid-
cradle more gold coming to America. Some
operators looked for some Improvement In
the government crop reports, and, therefore,
a lower condition. II is still very dificult to
sell exchange and this intcrfcTes somewhat
with shipping operations. Corn at the open
ing showed sc advance, and soon reacted on
reports that IL was raining in several parts of
the cotton belt, principally at Omaha and
Sioux City, and the prospects were for rain
becoming general at many other points. The
price worked back full cent from the opening
figure, afterwards rallying sc, changed some
and at the close gained fraction. Receivers
were more inclined TO sell, evidently 6ntici-
patug increased offers from the country
should the rain reported become general. The
government. il was thought by many, would
not show much If any, lower conditions, as
the damage by'drought has occurred since the
statement was made up. Oats opened A0h&C.
higher In sympathy with corn. The advance
induced liberal selling and prices receded at
BD%c. rallied NC, but closed quiet az about
the same prices as yesterday. Receipts OF hogs
were again small and packing in the west for
the week amounted only &c. 120, 900 head against
200 900 for the corresponding week last year
Much of to-days strength in the products,
however, had its basis In good cash demand
for lard. and that In turn was induced by an
advance of two shillings per hundred weight
in Liverpool. A good many sales aggregat-
ing about 1000 tierces, were effected at about
the September prices. Business in ribs and
pork was light The estimated receipts for
tomorrow arc: Wheat 50 ears; corn 250 cars;
oats 200 cars; hogs 5000 head
