Chicago, June 22.-Wheat displayed very
little recuperatiVe power to-day, holders
finding the matter of selling rather dis
spiriting question The demand was nelth-
er forceful nor urgent and had 1t not been
for the buying of shorts, prices would
doubtless have suffered more than they
did. September wheat opened from 59AI
573sc, sold between 58HM584sc and JI#sc,
closing at 57iac-1Isc under Saturday. Cash
wheat was weak ard 1c per bushel lower.
Corn-There was nothing in the situa-
ton of the grain markets to impart either
strength or activity. The leadership OF
wheat was followed, which fact, of course,
argued weakness and the trade of slow,
Indifferent sort. September corn opened at
29Ikc. sold between 295sGt295lc and 287xI29c,
closing at % cents, &c under Saturday.
Cash corn was easy and 4 of cent per
bushel lower.
Oats-Nothing of an extraordinary char
acter in the trade in this grain was noted
to-day. But slight interest was taken spec
ulatiyely and alterations in quotations
came through the firmness or weakness
conveyed by wheat September oats closed
A03sc lower than Saturday. Cash oats
were easy and nc lower
transformations in abundance arrived
at the yards this morning, and conditions
at that place were reported weak yerg-
ing on Generalization. This could have
but one effect on product, and naturally
prices weakened, and declined Business
was not exceedingly active, however, and
the session, was, at best, an ordinary one.
September pork and ribs. each closed SC
lower; September lard 56D7ikc lower
The leading futures ranged as follows:
Opening. Highest. Lowest. Closing.
