THEY ARE SORE,
Railroad Men Asking Why They

what they have done that they sould

PANICKY DECLINE IN CORN,
PROFESSIONAL DEALINGS
FAST AND FIERCE.
Wheat and Oats Fell Oh Under Corr
nfuenee-Provisions Closed Weak
and Lower.

Chicago August s.--Corn was hammered
by the bears fast and 1ercey today. The
growing crop was ripening too rapidly un-
der the influences Of perfect weather 10 suit
the holders. In the general alarm there
was panicky drop Of "a, a decline Of 41a
since yesterdays highest price, and over
~ iu n week. The pit and countryside
were both bearish Deliveries Of wheat
also were too heavy for prices and in sym
pathy everything turned very sick and
heavy. Even the fortunate shorts would
not cover enough accounts to relieve the
slump. At the close September corn was
2A02% depressed, September wheat NOS
down, and September oats y lower. Pro.
visions had inherent strength, but closed
unchanged to So lower on the grain inhu-
cnce.
The corn pit was filled with bears from
the sound Of the gong. The country was
selling and the professionals took an ac-
tive part on the bear side For the past
two or three months corn has been bulled
to death. Today the outlook for crops
could not have been better. Hay and oats,
as we'll as corn, promised abundant yields.
Even with the wheat market weakening
on the prolific season the general opinion
was that the coarse grains were still far
out Of the nntural range with wheat. The
opening sales today Indicate n henviness
In corn, but II was some time until tle
avalanche Of selling orders struck the pit
and resulted In the break of pa. Corn
came from all quarters, both from longs
and shorts, Stop loss orders Cnine ont and
then millers dumped hong stun freely.
Shorts became light buyers hut the de
mand for covering did not equal the desire
on the part of the longs to sell out. Sep
tOmber wheat sod early AT 53Nm53L9 and
tioundercd to JOJs There was n little ce-
action late, but the close was very weak,
An3s lower for September at Ola. On the
decline December touched Boy and May
3S5S Bulls were simply terror stricken.
One story that went the rounds was that
the influential bull interests had closed
ont their holdings. Receipts thirty -seven
cars.
Wheat was influenced to a great extent
by the weakness In corn Big commission
houses were sellers freely on the 9ne
weatner, big deliveries and bearish crop
adviccs. There was moderate carly Duy-
ing by shorts which steadied prices for n
time against lower cables and other bear
ish Influences. When the corn break came
wheat went off In all options, Clearau'cs
were poor and augmented the decline.
Cash business was Mt n good premium, as
high as 4 cents but the selling pressure
persisted and most options closed 1 lover.
