CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET
| CHICAGO, August 3.--The large pyra-
mids of wheat and corn that have been
| built during the late rise In these cereals
were rudely shaken during the first Few
| minutes OF to-day'S session. In wheat
! the selling was general New York being
prominently connected with that side OF
| the market There was no particular
| change in the situation, but the fact that
the strength of corn had slmmered down
had its effect on wheat. When corn raj
| lied later there was a corresponding Ie-
covery in wheat. succeeded by another
| reaction. September wheat opened al
54lsg5IAsc.. declined TO 5Ss.c.. and closed
| at 537sc.-Ssc. under yesterday. Cash wheat
| was in good demand, with prices isc
| lower than yesterday.
Corn was nervous and irritable to-day
| The professional was VIGOROUSLY wrong
all day He bought at the top. sold al
| the bottom. went short, and covered wneil
prices advanced again. At the start the
selling was participated in by everybody,
and for time IT looked as though the
| entire framework of the advance was
| going to pieces. but after substantial
| break the market steadied, b.Aame nriNr'
and then advanced. Before the close there
was some realizing, on which soft spot
| developed The possibility OF manipula-
ton In September corn. OWING 10 the ngh,
| supply, and to the fact that one INDIVIDUAL
| owns most OF the contract STOCK, mas
driven the trade into Nav. September
corn opened at 49h di9l2c, sold al fStc.'
| and closed quiet at i9i4c. May closed &c.
under yesterday. Cash corn was strong
| at unchanged prices.
| Oats-There was good trade In this
! grain The disposition was TO follow
| corn and wheat but the buying orders
supported prices even when the more I'M
| portant markets were weak. During the
| first part OF the day a large amount of
! long stuff was sold out. september oats
closed &c. higher than yesterday Cash
oats were nc per bus5el higher, with
shippers buying.
| Provisions were strong from lack OF
| offerings and COOL demand. The higher
corn market Is beginning to extend It's
| Influence into the provision trade, with
| the effect OF deterring holders from sell
ing their product. The business was light
the principal feature being the bidding
for pork by a prominent commissions
| house. and by some of the packers. Sep
! tember pork closed 224c. higher than yes
| terlay September lard was quiet, though
| there was a good cash demand.
The leading futures ranged as follows:
