Chicago Change.

Chicago, H., Aug. 4.-Before the wheat market opened today much anxiety was duced by the sensational failure of Moore Brothers, of Diamond Match and New York Biscuit fame and prices on the curb drop ped a full cent from last nights closing. That confidence was unshaken is shown by the fact that buying orders were more num- covery which took place during the regular session was slow but dull. Board of trade people were short" of the securities men, tioned, and they would be benefited by any break which might occur in them. Trade in grains did not develop any unusual fea- lures, interest for the time being having been transferred to the provision pit, which was in an excited condition. September closing at 5S5s@58Ac, a shade under yester- day. Cash wheat was lower early, but eventually recovered the loss, closing. firm
 Corn--The opening of corn was weak and lower on the influence eXerted by the closing of the local stock exchange and the causes nothing panicky about the trade, however si'' and the feeling soon became confident, full recovery taking place.. September corn opened at 243sQ2f12c, advanced to 25Ssc, clos ing at 25AD25Ac Xc higher than yesterday Cash corn was steady;
 Oats displayed a sentiment similar to that prevailing in the other markets. Trade was not heavy enough to admit of any demon- stration of either weakness or strength, thp markets showing slow and indifferent ae- tion. September oats closed unchanged from yesterday. Cash oats were firm for old,
 Provisons-The story of an anticipated squeeze in September pork by Montreal peo- pie had the effect of arousing the shorts to a sense of danger today, and their purchases, with those for the account of Armour, ad- vanced prices for that commodity quite sharply. The strength was continuous, and the session was punctuated by fiurries and serambles to buy. The market was an ex- cited one from start to finish, efforts to dis credit the report being unavaung. Septem- Der pork at the close was 9Oc higher than yesterday, September lard SQ71ac higher and September ribs 10D12Ac higher
 Leading futures ranged as follows:

Cotton Letter.
 New York, Aug 4.-(Special.)-The mar ket seemed irrepressible today. Although the bears continue to discredit the crop damage in the southwest and rapidly ham mered prices down, they found it impossible to keep them down. The close was steady at about the highest prices yet touched since the advance began. January opened at 690, declined to 6.S3, advanced to 7.02 and closed at 7.0047.01. After the close, in con sequence of the unfavorable weekly wealth. CT report of the government, the bids for January were advanced to 7.0S. Everybody is anxious to see how Liverpool will respond tomorrow to our sharp improvement. Un- less Liverpool proves disappointing we shall have higher prices.

Erv Goods

New York, Aug. 1.-The Journal of Com merce ana Commercial Builetin m , US week. week There has been an increase in the number of buyers in the market during the past week. the attendance from day to day being of fair proportions, but as before business at first hands has shown few indications of this. With the jobbing trade matters have improved somewhat, but still the results are below the average for the time of the year. There has been little alteration in the gen. eral tone of the market In an occasional instance sellers have made slight conces- sions in staple cotton goods, with a confined home market but these are not by any means numerous enough to affect the gem eral run of values, and prices are as a rule fairly well maintained for both staple and fancy lines of cotton merchandise. In weolens and worsteds for mems wear the new seasons business makes but indffer- ent progress, and heavy weights are in lim- ited recorder request. Silks are quiet throughout at generally steady prices. Col lections are hardly up to the average in regularity, there being some increase in the number of complaints on this score.
