Chicago, Aug. 20.--New York dictated the
course OF wheat values to-day. They were
evidently in possession of facts regarding
| foreign markets early in the day that Chicago
was ignorant OF. Not only were they buying
| wheat here, but their own market was lead
| ing every other point in the matter of
| strength. It developed later that Berlin and
| Paris were strong and higher and that all
| American offers OF wheat made Saturday
night had been accepted by tile other side
| This market opened weak and lower, but the
| New York orders TO buy came forward so
| freely that the tone quickly changed into one
| of trmness, which gathered strength as
| prices advanced. At the close a general de-
| mand sprang up and last prices were the best
of the day September wheat opened a. 5}5sc
/ sold up to and clo.el at 554c-l80pac
| higher than Saturday. Cash wheat was
| strong and lc per bushel higher.
Corn-The country scared the" shorts again
TO-DAY. Everything looked nice and easy for
| decline at the opening, but the orders TO buy
were many in number and large in amount.
| A feeling that so cents for May would bring
| out many stop-loss orders and result in a
smashing of values induced the local talent to
attempt hammering of prices at the start.
| but when they reached 81 cents, the orders to
buy predominated. and the crowd met with
disappointment. May corn'opened 81 to51D5l15,
| advanced TO 53l dropped back to 52laa525s
where II closed, showing net gain of 1l8d1A
over Saturday. Cash corn was steady at un
changed prices.
Oats attracted but little attention today
the trade merely taking the tone from corn
and wheat. The opening was easy but the
| recovery was prompt. and though bat mod
crate business was transacted there was a
steady feeling under running operations all
| through the session. The close was &c higher
than Saturday for September Cash oats
were firm early and steady later. Prices
were unchanged.
Provlslons-Product manifested great
strength to day. There was a small run OF
hogs at the yards, some of the grades were
strong and higher. and the grain markets
were advancing all OF which hal a bearing
on the provisions trade. prominent pack
ing company was bidding prices early in the
day, with greater desire. evidently. to cause
an advance than to really buy any product
Late in the day a well known comm ion
man bought freely of ribs. The close was 2Dc
higher than Saturday for January pork lOc
higher for January lard and nc higher for
January rds.
