Chicago. Aug. 22-There was a great fly
ing change from a bull standpoint in the
wheat market this morning, the opening
trades being made at ssQhac higher than
last nights close. The improved tone was
caused by reported rains throughout por
lions of the northwest, cables not as weak
as was expected and free coverings by
shorts After the shorts were well COW
cred there seemed to be an absolute lack
of any out side demand, and early pit
buyers turned sellers, with the result that
the market was weakened and fell OF
cent. The large arrivals in the northwest
and the belief that much larg-
er arrivals may be expected
IN the near IuluF6 was also a
weakening factor. Buying against puts
steadied the market a the decline, Sep
TENDER wheat opened at 63tsc to 63hc, adj
vanced to 63A96334c, declined to 6l%n6lA,
and closed at 62hc-3sc under yesterday.
Cash wheat was weak and 1c per bushel
lower
The improved feeling in the wheat mar
ket was reflected In corn, which opened
steady at unchanged prices. The lighter
receipts than expected and the rather bull
ish Cincinnau Price current summary
also assisted in maintaining steady prices.
The Price Current reported a considera-
BILE quantity of corn IN the central re-
gions irreparably injured by insufficient
moisture, and that an important lowering
of the average promise seemed certain.
Later the market weakened in sympathy
with wheat, and, under acute pressure
from warehousemer and receiving houses,
who reported larger from the west. The
larger estimated receipts for Tomorrow
also assisted materially in depressing
prices. September opened az S6S4c, adj
vanced to SIC, declined to 33tzc, and closed
at 35stQ557sc-1c to 1c under yesterday
The cash market was weak and nc to ic
per bushel lower.
oats were quiet but steady The mar
ket was practically featureless. Trading
pally for May oats. Near the close the
market became weaker in response TO
the weaker tone of wheat and corn. Sep
tember oats were lower than yesterday.
Cash oats were easy and 1ze lower.
Provisions easy, rather free selling by
longs A weaker hog market At the yards
assisted in keeping prices lower. Trading
was light Prices partially recovered ON
buying Of September ribs by Armour, but
later the market weakened, IN sympathy
with the lower grain market. At the
close September pork was 22lec under yes
terday and September lard and September
ribs 10e lower than yesterday
Leading futures ranged as follows:
