CHICAGO MARE ETs


Chicago, Aug. a.-Liverpool. before the
opening here, showed declines in wheat of
nd for September and I'D for December.
which was sufficient 10 account for lower
prices at the start. More confidence was
expressed by the traders. however. when
they observed how little wheat was for
sale at the reduction and how much APP
peared to be wanted.
The Northwestern receipts were sufi-
GENTLY liberal to keep bullishness from
taking a very firm hold NJ the crowd. but
there were fewer expressions OF bearish-
ness to be heard.
New York reported early In the after
noon that foreign demand there for wheat
for shipment was more active than for
some time previous. II was partly because
OF the improved export demand, but per
haps more on account OF the early bullish-
ness OF corn that September and Decem-
Der wheat at Chicago quickly recovered

wheat was easy at about i2alc decline for

dency in corn having been checked. wheat
turned weak and prices gradually worked
lower. September closed iau9sC lower and
December lost AuSsc.
The growing conviction OF a prospective
short crop being at present clinched into
an assurance of a poor yield by the con-
tinued high temperature strengthened
corn. Prominent bulls bought heavily and
the efforts of the shorts to cover were
hardly less active. There was some reces-
sion from the top near the closing. caused
by realizing and liberal estimates for to-
morrow. September closed hgAc higher
than yesterday.
Oats acted Independently OF either
wheat or corn and prices ruled steady
within a narrow range. The most of the
trading done was changing from Septem-
Der to December. September closed un-
changed TO NC lower.
Large receipts of hogs and lower prices

New York. Aug. a.-To-day's stock mar
ket was quite as remarkable for the list
l~essness and heaviness Of the standard
securities as it was for the animation and
strength Of a number of specialties. The
grangers, Union Pscinos, Atchison pre-
ferred. Brooklyn Transit, Sugar and most
OF the railway shares were semi-stagnant
all day, and most of thsm closed at small
net losses and with outside fluctuations
for the day OF only small fractions. The
great combination of iron and steel COM
panies was one of the notable influences
which caused activity and strength in a
number OF stocks. Those already known
TO be in the combine showed strength all
day and the common and preferred stocks
of the American Steel and Wire company
advanced 3 and Ss respectively on rumors
that it was to be included in the CONSOLE
dalton.
The movement In Northern Pacific was
a special one and was caused by a report
that a reserve surplus to insure the pre-
ferred dividend was in contemplation.
Peoples Gas was very largely dealt in
and gained 2s net, closing at the top. on
the belief that conflicting interests had
been adjusted. The buoyancy Of this
stock at the close did not save the balance
Of the list from a sinking tendency.
There were conspicuous movements In
a number OF other stocks of less prOmi-

ness all day and lost 2 points at one time.
