Strength Developed in Corn In
First Fifteen Minutes.
WHEAT SUMMARY.


CHICAGO. July 16.-Decided strength in
corn prevented a decline in wheat today
July wheat left off 1ac higher and Septem-
Der 2sG12c lower. Corn gained 1ac and oats
declined 1sGAc. Pork lost 21k95c, and ribs
2igc; lard closed 212c higher.
The increasing receipts of the new crop
ana excellent weather for harvesting and
threshing. together with Disappointing cables.
started wheat weak. The decline was check
ed by the strength developed in corn dur
ing the first fifteen minutes. Every time
the wheat market attempted to start down
ward on its own account something would
happen in corn tos make it forget its trou-
bles and join the Improving fortunes of its
now lively neighbor. September wheat had
worked down to SIC about thirty minutes be-
fore the close, but just then corn made
sponded by half cent bu recovery. The
demand for car lots of cash wheat was
slow and prices were shaded.
Chicago received 70 carloads of which II
were new. Minneapolis and Duluth together
received A cars, compared with 375 the cor
responding day of the year before The days
ports were equal to 100000 bu. Beerbohm's
estimated the worlds shipments of wheat
and flour for, the week to Europe at 4.SOO, 900
July opened 14c higher at 731ac sold off
to 7Shc then rallied to 7Ss4c bid. the closing
figure. September began B@Ac lower at
674a675sc declined to &c, rose to- &c, then
reacted to 6714Q67ssc bid at the close
Bun sentiment in corn was stimulated by
luS CoAlluueu uTN weather. PriceS started
rather easier than at the close yesterday
and when September had declined to sac,
good deal was for sale on stop-loSs orders
There were plenty Of buyers, however,
around that price, and after absorbing ali
the offerings the demand was still unsatisfied
and the price had lively advance to 1910
S39sc for September. There was a reaction
later on realizing profits. but the weal,.
ness did not last long and was more than
recovered on influential buying by the bull
leaders. September started unchanged to lie
lower at 33isG333sc, declined to 327s6p33c, up
TO SSlaQ33asc, down to 332sc, recovered to
S4c and settled back to SS7sG34c asked at the
close.
Oats followed corn, but did not display
nearly as much strength as its leader There
was good buying early and September rose
TO zoe, but offerings were so liberal at this
price that the market reacted. September
started sc higher at 1934 Q197sc. advanced
to zoe. reacted to 1850. then rallied to 1890
at the close.
Higher prices for hogs at the yards and
fair cash demand over night started pro-
visions strong. The early advance was more
than lost on general selling by packers Sep
tember pork opened 21ac higher at s1O.O7ik,
declined to 1895. then rose to $40 at the
close. The range in lard and ribs was in
consequential.
Estimated receipts for Monday are: Wheat
1l0 cars; corn. 400 cars; oats. IT'S cars: hogs
$1,000 head.
The leading futures ranged as follows.

HE STOPPED HIS PAPER.

Once upon time, a Georgia edi'
tor who had more troele than
money, Has made to feel sick at
heart upon receiving the following
on postal card
"Editur: Sence You put en- yore
Ole Payper that Were Not fit to
hole Office You stop hit at met,
fur hi: air no good nohow. nIver
Told You to seend hit to Mea
nohow, an wont pay You a durn
s'nt stop hit at unct say"
The editor WAS Inundated and
disheartened, and it occurred to him
that he was a financial wreck strand
ed on the shores of uncertainty.
After perusing the heiroglyphics on
the postal tor few moments, he be-
gan to sol;loquize, and then he felt
like fleeing from that bailiwick's
rule and law, from it forms and
fashions cut loose, and migrate
where the strawberry grows on its
straw and the gooseberry grows on
its goose; where the catnip tree is
climbed by the CAT as she clutches
for her prey, the guileless and un-
suspecting rat on the rattan bush at
play. And list while the partridge
drums on its drum and the wood
chuck chucks its wood, and the dog
devours the dogwood plum in the
primitive solitude.
