CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO July 7.--Fine weather and the be- lief that while the crop has suffered good deal of damage there will still be a phenom- enally large yield, started wheat weak The fact that Liverpool markets failed to respond to the strength displayed here yesterday was discouraging and led 10 liberal liquidation by longs After backing and filling for half an hour at around opening figures some sell ing orders from St. Louis gave the market a more decided trend toward still lower figures. From some items of news concerning crop prospects the general crowd had become bear ishly impressed before the St Louis selling orders came. so that the appearance of bear leader found a well prepared band Of willing followers This, together with Shows esti- mate of 700 000 900 bushels of wheat crop. led to free liuuidation and shorts selling. Sep tember dropped to 6S1sc and July lost %&c There was a slight rally near the close. For inc first time within the remembrance Of any member of the board there was not a carload of wheat received here. July left of Ssc lower and September lost 1d1Ac.

 Oats were easy at the beginning with corn, but closed firm on bullsh crop reports July closed unchanged from yesterday
