CHICAGo-wheat was excessively
dull to-day and because OF that more
than any news closed at about kG%c
decline. The large visible supply In

weak on the new crop futures, but
steady for September. the latter clos
Ing shade higher, while December
declined h@Ac. Oats closed unchang-
ed. Provisions closed without signlA-
cant change.
The most prominent feature Of wheat
TRACING throughout the entire session
was Its exceeding dizziness. Interest in
trading, never very great during the
hot summer months. In the wind led to
insignificant proportions to-day and the
sum total first transactions was hardly
as great as has frequently been seen
during n lively half hour. Variations
in the price were confined to n range OF
sc in September and but shade over
that In the more distant futures. Main
ly because OF this dullness the market
showed more or less weakness. Sep
TENDER opened kGAc lower ut 69hc.
Weather In the spring wheat belt was
favorable and this caused u little Ian
guild selling at first, enough to put the
price at 69c. The favorable weather
was IN n measure Offset by reports OF
disappointing yields from various
points and by bad crop reports from
European countries. a moderate COW
eTing movement ensued. carrying Sep
TENDER to 69kc. Up to noon hour the
price kept close to that figure, but after
that time the neglected market devel-
oped more weakness, September getting
back to soc again. This was put price,
and several little rallies occurred on
buying against these privileges, but the
support was unsubstantlal and the
market invariably worked back to the
lower figure. The cash demand was
small. Primary receipts continued
large the total being 10000 bushels,
Minneapolis and Duluth receipts were
ga cars against SOS last week and 1875

cars, IS OF contract grade. Bulls de-
rived some announcement from the
fact that the arrivals of new wheat
were still comparatively small. The
visible supply showed an Increase Of
$40, 900 bushels, compared with de-
crease last year Of $4,000 bushels. This
was perhaps the most significant bear
circumstance. and II resulted In an al
most total disappearance OF buyers late
in the session. Worlds shipments of

BIG HUMP DEAL,
San Francisco Group Sold for One
Hundred Thousand.

One of the most Important sale
of Hump property since tn
Big Buffalo deal, took place Satur
day. w. II. Wright of Spokane
representing an English company
effected the purchase of the Sar
Francisco group of claims for the
sum of 100000.
The San Francisco group includ.
cs claims among the first to be 10.
Gated after the Rigley and Rob
bins discovery. The group com
prises the Baby Louise, Monte Car
10 and San Francisco, three dis
tinct lodges lying almost parallel
with each other south of the Hob.
sons Choice.
Four parties were equally inter-
ested in the group, namely, w. H.
Doris, j. p. Letter, G. I. Flock
and d. G. Jarron.
The first payment, it is under
stood, was not very large one,
but sufficient to act as an option
and guarantee until the snow goes
off and work can be done. The
members of the English Company
represented by Mr.. Wright, have
no intention of floating stock, but
intend working and developing the
mine themselves.
The original owners have a firm
faith in the value of the group, and
were willing to court the fullest
test of the productiveness of tn
three claims. This may account
for the comparatively small first
aayment. At the same time the
balance of this large sum is to be
paid within twelve months.
One of the original owners speak
ing of the group this afternoon
said that feature which made
these claims very valuable was the
fact that d tunnel cut for 500 feet
in westerly direction starting
from the Baby Louise would tap
all three lodges. No development
work of any character save the
first assessment work has been
done on any Of the claims.
