Chicago, July 26.-Another low record
broken was the tale Of wheat to-day. Heavy
receipts and favorable crop news were the
cause, helped along by news from foreign
markets September wheat opened from 525i
to 523sc, sold between 52ls and A24c closing
at 5212C-56 of cent under yesterday. Cash
&c.
Corn had an additional cause for an ad-
vance in the report or damage to the Russian
and Danublan crops. Prices declined after
the opening on indications Of rain in the corn
belt, but the belief was general that a cOnsid-
cradle portion OF the harm was irreparable.
The close was strong, at an advance over yes
terday of lac. September opened from Az to
43sc, sold between Al and 43Rc, closing at
43A &c. Cash corn was strong at yesterdays
prices
Oats held strong within narrow limits. the
tone being transmitted from the corn market.
The close on september oats was nc higher
than Yesterday. Cash oats we're steady.
ProvlsiOnS-There was an awakening for
brief spell in this market to-day but there
was not enough vim to the trade to carry the
activity through the entire session but such
as 1t was was a welcome relief from the bull
monopoly that dates back long time. Two

ball rolling by beginning to buy, at which the
shorts began to evince some uueasiuess and

Ihe strength IN corn and the good cash de-
mand for product had some effect on the
trade, as did also the strong market for hogs.

were called, and OF the wit and spirit OF
its habitues. and sought admittance to its
meetings, which was at hrst granted as a

massive rafters. To set off the somberness

Upon one panel hundreds OF black cats
race over the ocean, in another they are
waltzing with naiads In the woods and I'm
another are whirling through space over
women, gendarmes and bouevardiers in
hot pursuit. And in every other part OF
the cafe the black cat appears as fire.
