CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET
CHICAGO. August 27-Prices showed n
slight gain over yesterdays closing al
one time, the main reasons for which
were the reported importation OF gold
ceptance, ana firm stock market az
New York. The dread OF the September
deliveries soon overshadowed every other
consideration, however, values SETTLING
back until The feeling changed to one OF
fear. About two hours after the openinV
a. drive was made at corn by q local
professional that markets weakness es-
tending 10 wheat. December wheat opened
at from ~ Is TO 6Oc.. declined TO SEC. and
closed at 80 l-4d59 3-sc -iac. unde- vesfar-
day. Cash wheat was weak and lie. per
bushel lower.
Corn-Dulness. attended with weakness

corn opened at 254c., declined 10 2sIl
% l-sc., and closed at rs 3-sc.-s-sc under
yesterday. Cash corn was weak and &c.
per bushel lower. ~
me weakness OF the surrounding mar
kets did not seriously AFFECT oats. Earlier
IN the year, oats were sold short very
freely. and. as the crop will fully realize
previous .anticipations, this short" in
terest takes advantage OF every oppor-
tunity TO cover. The strength OF oats
Is easily traceable to this condition. May
oats closed lac. under yesterday. Cash
oats were steady to lac. per bushel lower.
