The cash busineu was reported around
100000 bushels. Crop prospects were
very favorable and cables lower and
the market broke steadily when wheat
showed extreme weakness, prices for all
options declining. Receipts were 487
cars. September ranger from 36ssc to

Oats were dull speculatively within
narrow range of the prices. Prices
in the main tended toward lower ley

Provisions were fairly active and weak.
There was extensive September liqui-
dation, mostly by longs, while October
ribs were sold heavily. The demand
was largely from shorts and buying
from that class of traders caused some
reaction from the bottom. At the close

PRODUCE.

CHICAGO, August 15.-Weak cab
les, absence of cash demand and good
spring wheat crop prospects broke
wheat badly to-day, sending the Sep
TENDER price down 15sc from yester-
day while deferred futures were even
weaker Coarse grains were weak
with wheat, corn declining Ac and
oats s@Ac. Provisions declined SO
71ac.
Wheat opened at sharp decline,
September at 71B@71Ac, compared
with yesterdays closing price of
717sc A further small decline took
place in the next hour, but selling,
though continuous was not especially
heavy during the morning and inter
mittent covering sufficed to cause a
number of small rallies. The main
factor was the weakness of Liverpool.
That market not only ignored the ad-
vance here yesterday but showed an
early decline of Is pence which was in
creased to Y pence before the day
was over. A good many bad thresh-
ing reports we're received from the
northwest, but notwithstanding, esti-
mates on the spring wheat crop put
the total at 197,O00,00O bushels for the
three big wheat States. AS the gov
10 hut nA0 0G1
bushels, this had a good deal of eff
feet. Fine weather was also reported
in the wheat belt and this made SELL
ers of the northwest crowd. The de-
cline was rendered the more easy
from the fact that during the recent
advance shorts had generally covered
and bulls loaded up, and in conse-
quence attempts to liquidate were at
tended with some difficulty This fact,
however, was not driven home on the
big holders until late in the afternoon
The price meanwhile gradually de-
clined to 70Ssc. Late in the session
new bear factors presented themselves
in the shape of poor cash demand
here and an equally poor export de-
mand at the eaboard. The continued
apathy of foreigners is having more
and more effect on the local market.
An aggressive bear movement was
started which clipped fractions off the
price rapidly until 701sc for September
had been reached, when liquidation
dropped off to considerable extent.
Bradstreet's reporc showed a visible de-
crease on $4,000 bushels, but even
these large figures had little effect.
Minneapolis and Duluth reported re-
ceipts of 20S cars, compared with 1879
last week. and 245 a year ago. Chicago
receipts were 95 cars, four of contract
grade. Total primary receipts amount
ed to $4,000 bushels, against e55, 900
bushels. Atlantic port clearances Of
wheat and -four amounted to 265. 900
bushels. There was some selling BY
room traders on expectation of lower
cables tomorrow, September rallied to
70Ac and Closed with sellers at that
figure.
Corn showed some steadiness early,
though opening lower with wheat. i
