Chicago. July 13-The prime influences
in wheat trading to-day were the visible
supply report. The falling off in stocks
at New York and the weather indica-
tions for the northwest, which indicated
dry and hot temper in the spring wheat
belt. On the opening prices firmed, but
later sagged. September wheat opened at
5612G565sc, sold between 567s and 559sc,
closing at 559sq5594c-l4q2s lower than
Saturday.
Corn-The early advance in wheat had
its effect in the corn pit, but the trading
was comparatively light The strength
was mainly due to the fact that an ex-
pected reduction in rates to the east
would greatly increase the movement Of
that cereal and the correct consumption.
September corn opened at 275sG271ac, sold
between 2Sc and 27lsG27l4c, closed a Hi4c
Saturdays price.
The oats market was dun and steady
in it's early stages, but later on an at
tempt to cover the outsiders found
weakened market and the prices broke
&c. September oats closed at Saturdays
prices. Cash oats were about steady.
Provisions were dull and spiritless. and
showed small sympathy with the advance
in wheat. There was little or no bust
ness transacted, Notwithstanding it was
hoped that a post-convention inertia
would assert itself. September pork
closed 10d15c lower than Saturday, as did
lard. September ribs were 5G7lsc lower.
Leading futures ranged as follows:
Opening. Highest. Lowest. Closing.
