CHICAGO, August 25.-Nearly all Of
yesterdays decline in the grain pits was
recovered to-day. The bull pool made lis
strength apparent ia September wheat
and advanced that option sc per bushel,
while December advanced &c partly on &C
count Of the upward rush Of september,
but principally on account or the bulllsh-
ness Of the days news. Corn was even
more active than wheat and closed at
IL and nc advance. oats advanced &c.
! Provisions We're unusually strong and
showed advances ranging from 12l2 10 SJc
at the close.
How strong a hold the bull clique had
on September wheat was shown soon
after the opening to-day. The opening
was decidedly strong, though this was due
more TO the bullish nature OF the early
news than 10 squeezing September
, was quoted at the opening at from 93i2
10 1890, compared with yesterdays clos
ing price Of Ol%c, and touched SAC almost
. Immediately after. 1t dropped back 10
! g2i9c and then il was that spurs were
put in. Offerings of September ceased
| altogether, the bull crowd apparently
, sure of them position standing pat,
( and the price jumped and kept jumping
until about II o'clock it had reached Ole.
/ Traders in December had not been idle
in the meantime. That option started at
9lQ9rsc an advance Of &UlAc from yes
terday, touched 92c, went back to S1ac,
then went on the run to sac. There was
a slight interval of weakness about an
hour from the opening, when the New
=
cline occasioned was quickly recovered.
