Butter, Cheese and Eggs.

Another advance in Butter is noted. but deal
ers rather expect a decline later on, as the
recent advance has diverted much OF the de-
mand to picked descriptions. The same may
be said OF Eggs. which have risen to such a
point that buyers are beginning to run East
as far possible. Cheese rules firm. and
stocks are lower than for some time.

Chicago Gram Market.

CHICAGO. Aug. 26.-wheat opened weak at
from 1sc to &c decline. Most of the trading
was in December but September was given
considerable attention and developed full as
much weakness as the latter month. Beyond
a decline at Liverpool and ideal harvesting
weather in the Northwest there was nothing at
first to influence selling. Nevertheless. the in
clinatlon 10 liquidate was quite general, and
but little support was given the market except
from shorts, who early in the day bought in
considerable quantities. The Northwest was
even weaker than the local market, ana TINS
soon became a prominent factor heavy selling
orders coming from that section. which induced
liquidation by local longs and also brought
selling orders through commission houses the
result was a steady decline, the market get
ting under puts and even then receiving no
substantial support. The cash market was
badly out of line bids being generally less
than u cent over September for No. ] North
ern which shippers would not accept. Later
It was reported that several loads had been
advices from the Northwest that much heavier
receipts were expected next week. This
discounted by shorts, who sold heavily, and
in the last hour of the short Saturday session
the bottom apparently dropped out of the
market September wheat opened AQSsc lower
at 71%c declined to 701zc and reacted to
lower at 739sG7S14c declined to 1850 and closed
at 721ac asked.
Corn was decidedly weak for September and
easy for other futures. Heavy receipts caused
selling September closed $sGtAc lower.
Oats considering the weakness of other
grain markets, were steady. September closed
is4Lc lower.
Provisions were dull and weak. influenced a
little by the decline in grain markets. There
was scattered liquidation by outsiders and
scapng longs sold a little. AT the decline
hackers were fair buyers of all products, and
the market was steady at the close. The cash
demand for meats was good. At the close
September pork was cents lower. lard cents
lower and ribs TIC lower.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

yielding per cent or better IN loans, the
holding of stocks and bonds on the high level
of prices becomes somewhat precarious. This
is shown in gilt-edge railroad bonds and on
Government bonds. both here and abroad
That money is likely to continue firm at least
the present level is the evident expecta-
ton of the world financial authorities, as ev1-
denced by the precautionary and Strengthening
policy of the banks OF England, France ana
Germany, which is continued even after the
considerable accumulation of reserves already
effected. The same policy is in force by New
York Clearing house banks. Whatever present
ease is. apparent in the money market is OBJ
vlously due to the quietness of speculation anc
the considerable liquidation already induced by
contraction of loans. In this condition of af-
fairs il is natural that spectators should have
turned back to middle and low grade issues
which have prospects of early entering upon
the dividend list or of an increased rate q.
distribution on account of largely increased
earnings. The most promising field of opera
lions has been among comparatively obscure
stocks, the chances of which for increased re-
turns have not been already discounted by
previous active speculation.
Activity has increased in the bond market
but gains have been confined to speculative
issues.
