chicago, Aug. H.-Reports OF further
gold engagements for export weakened
the board of trade markets today. Sep
TENDER wheat closed q cent lower, corn
Y cent lower. oats unchanged and pro-
visions at declines.
In the wheat market there was moth
ing new but an advance of I'D quoted
from Liverpool at the immediate open
ing, but that appeared liks so much OF
the bullish happenings of late. as to be
further incentive for selling. Sep
TENDER dropped at once TO 66ss and 66i2
cents and not until ten minutes later
when the weather bureaus artist had
written frost in blue chalk on the
upper left hand corner Of the signal ser
vice map did the market resent the con-
duct Of its assailants. In a few min
utes more the price OF September had
risen TO 6S1s cents and for about an
hour IL kept swinging between Sos and
66is cents. During that time New
York kept selling wheat here and rush
ing kilograms about the amount OF gold
engaged for shipment by tomorrows
steamers. At the cpd Of that time
Liverpoors second dApatch came to
hand quoting the loss Of the early I'D
advance, which, with reported gold
shipments, woke up the bears 10 fur
ther eXertions and knocked the price
down to 661s cents. Those fluctuations
all occurred in the first two hours of
the session. The market was disturb
ed again to the disadvantage of the
price when Bradstreets report of the
worlds visible supply came to hand.
The decrease for tomorrow was given
as ,3O0, 600 bushels, without taking into
account Pacific coast stocks. which are
not reported. A year ago Bradstreet's
gave the worlds supply as having in
creased 1000, 900 bushels. Chicago re-
ceipts were 81 cars. SO Of which We're

load only of the red and two car loads

half hour the price of September went
to 67& cents and It had only recovered
to 66q6612 cents at the close.
Corn made a struggle TO get up and
for about half an hour X looked as IL il
| might succeed to moderate extent
and even did so temporarily. 1t fell
later in the day. September opened
at 80 cents. ran up TO 1875 cents and
tumbled back to 37H. humping and re-
bounding little on the several steps
of the decline. The prediction OF light
frosts for tonight in the northwest help
ed the bulls early in the day, when they
attempted to grapple with the heavy
market. In the afternoon every con-
sideration but that of the big coming
crop was blotted out.
Oats were quiet and closed steady on
the near futures while October and May
fell off a cent from yesterday. The
market was slightly firmer in sympathy
with corn.
The daily drag in provisions COM
menced with the opening of the session
and continued to the close. In the end
pork had lost 121k cents. lard 1-2 cents
and ribs 10 cents for September and II
1-2 cents for January.

Roads Would Follow from Both Inclina.
ton and Necessity.
Chicago, Aug. 1.-THE western roads
put in all Of today working on their pro
posed agreement on harvest excursions
but it was not quite as much of an agree
ment as it was expected to turn out.
When a vote was taken late in the day
on the advisability of adding the GER
tificate plan OF return tickets proposed
by the committee which has for two
days been working on the matter, three
of the lines reported declared they were
not prepared to vote at today's session
as the men present did not have full au-
thority from the executive road officials
of their lines to cast a vote. This
caused a delay and the whole thing
went over until tomorrow when it is
thought all Of the lines will be ready to
cast their votes.
No matter what the outcome of this
meeting will be it is certain that all
he roads will run excursions. The Illi-
nois Central has no intention of aban-
doning it's announced excursions, and
the Burlington has said fatty that it
will have several excursions along it's
line in Nebraska, and with the example
of these two roads before them the 9TH
er roads are not likely to keep hands
off the business. The best thing the
lines as a whole can hope for is to
reach some agreement on the manner
in which the excursions shall be run.
If they fail to do this there is no telling
how deep the rates all over the terri
tory of the western lines passenger as
