Chicago, Aug 29.-The bulls in wheat
had an agreeable surprise this morning.
The market opening from 1sQ3sc over yes
terdays close. The firm opening was caus-
ed by Steadier cables, rainy weather west,
and the Cincinnati Price Current, which
reported the grain movement retarded by
moisture in various western regions. Pro-
fessionals, however, were skeptical as to
the advance holding and sold freely.
People who had bought carly turned sell
lers, and prices rapidly declined, but rail-
leo on a report from New 1OTk tnat Tor
eignerss had bought considerable wheat.
The feeling continued firm throughout the
remainder of the day The fact that do
nestle markets were all higher had con-
siderable to do with the bulltsh feeling
that prevailed. The close was strong at
outside prices. December wheat opened
at 62hc to 625sc. sold between 63%c and
621sc. closing at 63%c-11sc higher than yes
terday. Cash wheat was firmer and ] cent
per bushel higher.
Coma firm feeling prevailed In corn
early this morning on the enormous with
drawals from store. 59S. GA bushels, the
moderate arrivals, 2S7 cars and the bullish
Cincinnati Price Current report which sta
ted that the corn crop would be much
short of earlier calculations, and that the
1900, 100000 bushels-about 10000, 900 bushels
less than estimated. The market eased off
on the rather free offerings at the adj
vance, but rallied in sympathy with the
strength of wheat. Prices weakened on
heavy short selling, by a commission
house, but rallied later, in sympathy with
the strength in wheat. May corn opened
at BIZ to 307kc sold between 311sM31Ac and
30S+c, closing at 31kc-Hc higher than yes
terday. Cash corn was firm and nc
higher.
Oats were steady, in sympathy with the
strength in corn and wheat. The raiding
was fairly active, shorts" doing consid-
cradle covering in September. Receipts
were III cars. May oats closed &c higher
than yesterday. Cash oats were firm and
A0J5c higher.
Provisions were weak on rather free IL
Quidating by the longs and on lower prices
for hogs Trading still continues to con-
sist mainly of changing. At the close Sep
7izlT1Oc lower, and September ribs 10c lower
than yesterday. Domestic markets were
quiet and easier.
Leading futures ranged as follows:
