Chicago, Aug 13.-The vague feeling of
uneasiness and dread Overhanging the
wheat market was the most potent factor
in the trade In that grain for the first
half Of tO-day's session and under that in
huence break occurred which had the CT
tect OF shaking out many of the smaller
holders. The prospects that deliveries in
september would be heavy was not a
promising outlook and tended to render the
feeling very pronounced. Relative to these
deliveries prominent operator said:
There is about 100000 bushels of con-
tract wheat in regular houses in Chicago
but over half of II is in houses made reg
ular in July, and the receipts being dat
ed previous to that time, are not regular
for delivery now and will probably not be
changed to an important extent for Sep
TENDER contracts" This situation dawned
on the minds of the traders later in the
session effecting a more confident tone
and with the treasured feeling a prompt
recovery was inaugurated. prices event
ually rising above last nights closing
prices. September wheat opened at 5424c,
sold at 53%c, closing at 55iz d553sc, A6p7sc
easy early, but closed firm.
Corn-The Cincinnati Price Current sum
mary on corn reported some apprehension
regarding the crop in Kansas. Probably
portion of the opening firmness of the
market for this grain might be ascribed TO
l that. but evidently the initial strength of
wheat was the more important influence.
With the weakness in wheat later, corn
| yielded TO moderate offerings and declined.
| With the recovery in wheat subsequently
corn also rallied. but not in full. Septem-
/ Der corn opened 23lsc, declined to 223sc
| closing at 227sc-1sc under yesterday. Cash
| corn was rather weak early, but became
| frmer towards the close, final prices being
/ nominally unchanged from yesterday.
| Oats-The Oat market displayed more
| frmness than either OF its important neigh
| bors. This was credited to the influence of
| the Cincinnati Price Current which said
/ the oats crop is even more unfavorably
/ reported than previously. Prices eventually
| exhibited weakness, but did not break as
/ radically as those of wheat and corn. Sep
| TENDER closed nc higher than yesterday
| Cash oats sold at steady prices.
| ProVisions-The rally Of wheat at the
| opening of that market acted as stimu-
| liant to values in product, notwithstanding
/ a weak hog market. With the alteration
| in grain later the sustaining force was
| Withdrawn and the strength disappeared.
| Towards the close, a recovery occurred
| the rally in wheat influencing It. Septem-
| Der pork closed 17l2c higher so September
| lard and ribs each 7i2c higher.
| Leading futures ranged as follows:
| Opening Highest. Lowest. Closing
