lations Of weak long interests and had served
rendering the market more or less top
heavy" Nevertheless, the Wall street hull
faction met this pressure without the least

anu OalS.
Chicago, Aug. M-Prices advanced on the
lump in both grains and provisions at the
opening. The bull factor was the awaken
ing of the shorts to their perilous position in
September options. September corn had the
biggest early advance, making gain Of 2asc
in less than hour. Poor receipts, almost
nothing of contract grade coming in, and all
good stuff moving out, at good premiums over
September, started that option &c to 11sc
up at 53Ac to 54c. Cables were higher, only
forty-fve cars came to-day and of these only
fifteen were on grade. Shorts ran nervously
to find cover and prices advanced at every
bid Before the end of the first hour Septem-
Der was bringing 55Ac and still very
strong. .
Scarcity of the article with car lots easily
1c higher, kept the shorts bidding all the
morning. September jumped to 57%c, before

be the leading influencing feature this morn
ing. Further cable advices from the crop
country reported general damage to the trees
by the heavy frosts and an almost total de-
struction of August towering. Wall street
and European shorts led the demand for the
nearer positions and importers were seen to
be buying May. Soon after the call there was
a general turn for profits in which the bull
clique took the lead, followed by commission
houses, spot interests and The room. Demand
from shorts was supplied and prices eased
off quickly. Noon bids indicated net Un-
