CHICAGO MARK ETS.
Prod uce,

Chicago, Aug. /. Pronounced dullness
was the feature of wheat to-day until
within three-quarters of an hour of the
close. During that time the range of
prices was but nc and for long periods the
pit was half deserted, traders going to
provisions and corn, where more activity
was apparent. The opening was rather
weak at slight decline, September start
ing &c lower at 691ad69ssc. 1t advanced
shortly after the opening to 69Ac. but soon
came back to the opening price and until
the afternoon close remained at that
price.
Little long liquidation was noticeable
during the morning and, although as a
rule this was bearsh, the absence of SELL
ing pressure prevented any material de-
cline. Gables were lower, but did not
show the decline expected. Reports from
the spring wheat country indicated large
crop and the weather was favorable for
the grain. Northwestern receipts were
light.
Bradstreet's report on the visible sup
ply. due about noon, had a tendency to
restrict trading in the morning and a
bearish report was surmiSed. The surmise
proved to be correct, the decrease being
pr. at only $50, 900 bushels, against 5,714, COO
bushels a year ago. About 1890 p. m. the
almost complete absence of cash demand,
both here and at outside points. appar-
entity impressed the bulls with the fulfil
ity of longer holding their wheat. and a
lquidating movement was started, which
grew decidedly heavy as the session drew
to a close. The weakness shown by corn
acted as a spur to the disguised longs,
and large quantities of long wheat came
out on the decline. Previous to the noon
hour the September price had touched
69B470c on a moderate amount of buying,
pril cipaly by shorts, but it declined rap
idly under the liquidation and shortly be-
fore the close it touched 69c. The close
was weak at 69lsc sellers.
Corn was weak and at times quite act
i've. Reports from the corn belt indicated
large crop. This and continued faVora-
be weather and the large receipts started
important outside liquidation. Local longs
joined the selling movement later and
prices declined steadily. September
closed FsdAc lower.
Oats were dull but steady in spite of the
weakness of other grains. There was a
fair export demand at the seaboard and
enough buyers of September to keep the
price steady most of the session. Septem-
Der lost lsc.
Provisions were irregular. The market

duce-Review OF Trade.

New York, Aug. 1.--To-days stock mar
ket began strong, but the bulish senti-
ment became exhausted and the close was
lower than last night The declines ex-
tended to a point each in Burlington and
Pennsylvania and from to points in the
leading industrials Soon after the open
ing realizing sales were made on a large
scale, operators taking advantage of
heavy commission house demand to take
the profits made on the recent rise. The
outside buying and the realizing seemed
about equally balanced for time, but
weight of the selling proved too much for
the bulls and prices of railroads gave
way.
The softness of the market moved the
professional operators to turn to the short
side after having realized, and they at
tackled values vigorously in the afternoon,
wiring out all the gains in the specialties
and carrying the railroads generally a
sharp fraction below last nights cose
There were some isolated stocks which
maintained their strength throughout the
day, notably the Chicago Great Western
issues, Colorado & Southern and Chicago
& Eastern Illinois, which rose from a
fraction to Sss. The strong June state
were without marked effect
Rates for call money to-day were mark
ed up to Az per cent. in the afternoon.
Cheap money does not appear nearer than
1t did a month ago The calling home of
these credits would, 1t seems, probably re-
suit in sales of securities rather than
shipments of gold, which the Bank of
England is still buying in the open mar
ket and from Germany.
London bought quite freely of stocks In
New York to-day and exchange bills
against future shipments continued in
large supply There has also been a sharp
fall in exchange on Paris this week and
to-day sterling exchange in Paris rose ~
ceEtimes. Banks in other cities have been
large lenders in New York and have
drown on their deposits in New York
banks for the purpose. This opera ton
reduces the possibility of a further strain
on New York through interior demand to
move the crops But for the present it
makes increased demand on them and
does not offer much relief to the local
money situation.

Easily Built.

The typical Philippine house Is a very
simple affair and in some respects a
very comfortable one. The floor SAYS
the Washington Star is raised five or
ten feet in the air, and the house must
be entered by means of ladder. There
is not nail or peg in the whole build
ing. The frame is of bamboo tied to-
gether with rattan, the sides and roof
being of nipa palm 1t nipa is very
scarce, however. bamboo can be made
to serve for the sides also.
The air in a Philippine house never
gets close, for ventilation is perfect
The floor is made of bamboo strips with
their convex sides up, and they are tied
together in such a way that wide cracks
are left between them. The windows
are provided with swinging shades
which can be propped open during the
day.
Another advantage of the Philippine
dwelling is the safety afforded by the
lightness of the material. If the house
is shaken down by an earthquake, or
blown down by a typhoon, no one gets
hurt.
In some respects such houses are too
primitive however. Often the dwelling
boasts of but one room for cooking,
eating and sleeping. The cooking is
done over an open fire built on a heap
of earth in one corner, and the house
becomes almost uninhabitable by
means of the smoke. In better dwell
ings a place is partitioned off for the
cooking, while the body of the house is
divided into two or more rooms.
