Wednesday, Aug. ~ l9O2.
(This market letter is furnished by the
IFpdike Com. Co., Omaha, Neb)
Wheat. Wheatis comparatively dull:
the feeling is msnifestly weaker. The
disappointing showing of Englieh
cables, freer movement and better
weather predictions were the principle
influences. Exports were heavy and
the visible decreased 100000 bushels
leaving total of only 90 1884, 600 ;bush-
els, as against 26,769,OO0 bushels last
year.
Corn. Corn was moderately active,
with early tone steady; weakness de-
veloped to some extent on account of
the unusually favorable reports from
all parts of the country. The weak
ness in wheat also had its influence in
bearing the market.
There is now but 5,43S,OOO bushels
visible with a decrease of $4,000 BUSH
els for the week. Last year the total
visible was IL. $4,000 bushels on the
same date.
Oats. Oats are weaker and lower
The improvement in weather and the
break in other grains had very de-
pressing effect on it, and the prices
were considerably off.
The visible for the week decreased
2l4, 900 bushels, leaving q visible of but
!, 432O 900 bushels as against 9,546, 900
last year.
