CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET.
CHICAGO, June 26.-The wheat market
| continues dull Prices lower, with the
average tone far from strong, more from
encouragement on the part Of the holders
than from any new developments I'm the
situation. September wheat opened az
from J5la0B 3-Sc., sold between j6-s and
So l-4q56 3-Sc. and closed at the inside
3-SNi2c. under yesterday. Cash wheat
was steady. closing easy.
Corn fluctuations practically represented
the variations I'm the tone OF the wheat
any ground for hope OF better prices, the
buying being principally by shorts, and
the nrmness, which at times came from
demand was OF unsatisfactory sort Sep
TENDER corn opened at Is LARS 3-Sc., sold
between % Is and Is 3-8c., and closed at
Is l-ic.-l-Sc. under yesterday. Cash corn
was duh but steady, closing prices being
a shade lower.
oats presented no reason for gratihca-
ton 20 holders or buyers, but, on the
contrary. were decidedly disappointing.
Even the most sanguine bulls profess 10
see nothing in the situation from this
grain OH which 10 found a promise OF
improvement I'm values. September oats
closed lie lower. Cash oats were steady
and easy
The tone Of the provision market was
easy all the morning, but so iltle business
slow and without feature OF Importance.
As the sess ion proceeded prices sagged
from lack OF support. The close was
2l5c under yesterday for September pork
and ribs, and lOc. lower for September
lard
The leading futures ranged as follows:
