Chicago, Aug. 22--Ihe wheat crowd had their
choice IN the matter of cables this morning,
and after few moments indecision they &C
cepted the bearlsh ones. There was much
conflict in the advices, some quoting higher
prices and firm markets. others reporting de
clines. Prices had been hammered down &c
on the curD, ana with this loss established
the market opened The crop bulletins had
an improved tenor, and helped the weakness.
News of the Russian crop was rather dis
couraging although Indefinite, and a rally
took place when the information had due cir

however. and when the session was drawing
to close the selling by scalpers became gen
eral prices falling away to the lowest point
wheat opened at 60c, sold between 80 IaGl555sc
and 54Ac, closing at the inside figure. ease
under yesterday. Cash wheat was &c higher
early in the close, barely steady.
The price of corn did not suffer as much
as'that OF wheat, Notwithstanding the sym
patty which marked the action Of the two
grains and the similarity of the efforts of To-
cal professionals to depreSS values in both
markets. The undertone to corn was still
very strong, and although il gave away to
some extent, there was nevertheless a con
siderable degree Of hrmness at the decline
The crop reports and the government bulle-
tins were all favorable, but the country fur
nlshed enough buying orders to sustain the
market fairly well. NAV corn opened from
53llc to 53c, sold between 53Ad53%c, and 52Ec
closing at 52B05}c &c under yesterday. Cash
corn Tas steady. Prices ruled about the same
as yesterday.
The oats market was active and strong to-
day. Prices did not make any gains of ma
terial importance, but in view OF the declines
in whea. and corn, that they held their own
showed that they we're not in accord with the
weakness in the other pits. The cash market
was strong. september oats closed I'M

A0Hc higher.
Provisions-The receipts of hogs fell short
OF the estimate today and quotations showed

in consequence OF the advices from the yards
but declined later on offerings and lack
OF demand. slight rally followed some
