CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET.
CHICAGO. September 1.-The sentiment
IN wheat to-day was quite the reverse
OF what II was yesterday. Values yielded
to selling, rather than to buying, lower
quotations being established. Local ope-
ratlOns were the only ones OF any volume,
and they were by no means excessive.
One professional scalped in moderate
siNed quantities, but the average OF the
transactions was extremely light. Wheat
opened at from 563s to So 7-sc. declined
70 IS l-ic.. and closed al IS 1-4u5S 3-Sc.-s4c.
under yesterday. Corn traders were UNI
able to evolve from the situation any
thing in the shape OF an argument for
higher prices. and. finding wheat less
strong than yesterday. were naturally
induced 20 try the selling side but only
moderately, there being but few on hand
May corn opened at "a 5-sc.. sold at
2iAc., and declined 10 and closed at
"A 3-oc.-3-oa52c. under yesterday. Cash
corn was easy and lac. per bushel lower.
The situation In corn. from a business
standpoint. was reproduced in oats, aud
the tone was likewise very similar. The
undertone was extremely weak, however,
oat traders expressing confidence in the
ultimate recovery OF prices.
Provisions-Product pursued a down.
ward course. disregarding a steady hog
market I'm the adoption OF tone and
leaning rather 10 the influence coming
from grain. January pork closed 1Oc.
lower; January lard 5G7izc. lower, and
January ribs 2lad5c. lower.
