| CHICAGO. August $40 export or not
| to export is the question IN Inc Wnea i
market at the present time. The trade
| in a general way knows that the WIN
/ ter crop IS a short one. IL Is also aware
/ that the Northwest Is reaping bounttui
I harvest and that with another week or
ten days OF favorable conditions an un-
usually large yield will be assured, put
/ whether foreigners are going 10 look 20
! European markets for more than oru lill.
! quantities 10 replenish depicted STOCKS vi
not is quite another matter.
! This phase of the situation governs tne
| prices to-day. on Saturday lO,WO pu-heis
were taken at this point Tor Shipment
abroad. This had a firming effect to-day
/ but the purchases were not large enough
| 10 excite serious comment or lead 10 Il
| radical upturn. Baltimore was reported 10
! have sold twelve loads, but the statement
/ lacked confirmation.
THE opening was firm. with local traders
buying n little and commission houses
having orders on the outside. rms Is
holiday In England and, consequently
there were no Liverpool cables. The
visible supply decreased 1900 bushels
| and a report from New York stated that
| the quantity on ocean passage would snow
reduction of 100000 bushels.
September wheat opened at from 6S 20

closed at 6s b-Sd6S 3-ic.-3-4c. higher than

Prices ranged from lc. lower to lc

! Contributing could be urged with force
enough to overcome the depression con-
/ sequent upon the advent Of crop that
surpasses anything previously known
Shorts did not expect TO benefit by the
enormous yield. but, through the weak
ness Of the news OF the day. the nearby
are inclined to droop. The visible supply
decreased $4,000 bushels. and the amount
/ on ocean passage 10000 bushels. New
/ York was accountable for the large reduc-
I .loa
September corn opened at II 5-sc. sold
| between II rs and 20 l-2c.. and closed NJ
| 4lc.-J-Sn3-ic under Saturday. Cash corn
/ was weak and SAC. lower, closing firmer.
Oats-Trade was duh in oats. the decline
/ i'm corn exercising a weakening effect. The
I llttle trading that took place was on local
/ account. with no influence or impression
noticeable The visible supply decreased l.
/ 132.O)0 bushels. September oats closed SIC.
under Saturday. Cash oats were quiet ana
/ steady.
Proylsions-There was hrmness Of brief
/ duration In provisi0na at the opening
! Higher prices were quoted on hogs. and
/ that with the better feeling I'm wheat.
! acted favorably on the tone. Traders. on
reflection decided that corn had more
! important influence or product than
| wheat, upon which they tried TO dispose
| of their holdings, but We're obliged TO do
| so at a sacrifice. Pork was l-2c lower
/ than Saturday az the close; lard was
| l-2c. and ribs were 12U5c lower. Do
nestle markets were quiet and easy.
