Chicago, July Sl.-There was far less
strength to wheat at the opening to-day than
marked the close yesterday The corn
market was off and as wheat took its impetus
from that grain which advancing, it quite
naturally receded in sympathy. Long"
wheat was disposed Of with as much celebrity
as possible, not considering the question Of
profit and loss. The entire session didnot in
dictate any quarter Of strength, although at
the close a moderate rally took place on buy
ing by holders of privileges. Very little en-
couragement was derived from the announce
ments, unless perhaps the export clearauceS
had some effect in steadying prices. Primary
market receipts were the largest for any
day since the Inauguration of the new crop
movement. September opened 53%c to 534c ;
sold between 54c and 52Sc closing at $3.50
q of a cent under yesterday. Cash wheat
was IN good demand at about steady prices
Corn--After glancing at the weather map
| the bulls in corn plunged into the pit at the
opening and frantically endeavored to sell
their holding. Prices started lrregularly
weak, but soon after first trades were made
| 1t became noticeable that orders to buy were
coming from the portion Of the corn belt that
| had not been favored with showers, whilst
the districts that had rain were selling. Not
great deal of rain had fallen during the
night, but, Washington predicted further
| showers, which brought out more corn
and produced weak undertone. There
was a rally during the early hours
| OF the session, which carried prices be-
| low a portion OF the opening decline

Oats-lhis market was WITHOUT independ-
| ence OF action. Longs were selling, but it was
| due only to the weak and declining wheat and
corn markets that they were doing so. Sep

light run of them and an advance In their

| ter feeling to-day than yesterday. 1t was a
| dull spirltless market, however, prices giving
| away to a slight extent before the close on
| account of the weakness in grain. Septem Der
