QUIET DAY in THE PITS
SEPTEMBER WHEAT CLOSED LOWER
AND CORN AND OATS OFF. =
Wheat Advanced Early in the Day
but Gain Was Lost Later-PrO-
vision Market.

CHICAGO, Aug 3.-Trading I'm the grain
pits was rather quiet to-day and lower
prices ruled, September wheat closing 5sc
lower. September corn was off &c and oats
went down hc, while provisions closed from
21kc lower to 715e higher.
Wheat prices were rather erratc, good
advances being made early in the day, but
during the last half of the session all the
gain was lost. The opening was firm on a
sharp advance at Paris and on further rains
in the Northwest. September being Bc lower
to Ac higher at SOAc to SO5sc. On general
bullish news good demand developed
from spectators and shorts and under this
influence the market become quite strong,
September selling up to s07sc. Later in the
day there was heavy selling pressure due
to a Sharp falling off in prices at Minnea-
polls and prices here broke severely, Sep
tember declining to 1880 The close was
weak and near the bottom, September being
off Sc at 79s4c. Clearances of wheat and
flour were equal to $4,000 bu. The amount
on passage decreased 10000 bu, while the
visible supply increased AGA, 600 bu. Primary
receipts were 743.5OO bu against 1886. 400 by
a year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth report
receipts of 207 cars, which. with local re-
ceipts of lis cars-twenty of contract grade
made total receipts for the three points
of S22 cars. against 2I6 cars last week and
573 cars year ago.
Commission houses were free sellers of
corn throughout the day and lower prices
ruled, although the early strength in wheat
held prices fairly well the first part of the
day, but later with the break In that grain.
the market became extremely weak. A fea-
ture in trading was the selling of September
by elevator people, which was in line with
reports of freer offerings of cash corn
from Iowa and Nebraska. The weather
was also bear factor. After ranging be-
tween 51&c and 525sc, September closed
&c lower at 51&c. Local receipts were 195
cars with p of contract grade.
There was little feature in trading i'm oats
and prices were inclined to follow other
grains, the early strength in wheat being
a supporting factor from the first part of
the session, but later offerings became
more gradual and the market eased off.
September closed with a loss Of &c at $3.50
S4c, after selling between $3.50 and 34Ac.
Local receipts We're 212 cars.
Provisions ruled quiet and prices were
lower early in the session with very little
demand, the increased stock of lard being
a bear feature. Buying by local traders
later caused a slight rally and the close
was about steady, September pork being
&c higher at $13.75, September lard was off
2ltc, while ribs were up 711c at sS.l5.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
$50 cars; corn, 80; oats, 440; hogs, 1900

fair variety of grades was represented. and the
quality and condition OF the offerings were about
the same as that represented at the close OF last
week. The market opened with some inquiry
from nearly ALI local buyers for thick, fat cattle
of good quality and good weight. and any that
answered that description sold as promptly as
could be expected at strong 20 higher prices
than those current for equal kinds at the close
of last week. Some Of the eonsignments that
lacking a little in quality or fat were prob
ably very little higher, but others that were
heavy enough and up to the requirements In

packing houses having been liberal buyers OF
the lighter weights and less desirable cattle
last week. were very well supplied, and. with
practically no inquiry from outside sources to-
day. that class was neglected and very difficult
to sell at no better than steady prices. For cat
tie that are up to the requirements, which means
good quality. good fat and good weight, sales
men are rather hopeful of a comparatively sat
isfactory market this week, but the outlook for
all thin stock, and particularly the grassy cows
and heifers, is by no means encouraging. Sales
to-day included 1.24O TO I275-lb steers at 81 500

CHICAGO, Aug. 3.-Wheat-The news
was all bullish this morning. especially
from the Northwest but the market was
an erratic one throughout. The first bulge
carried September TO S0sc or &c above
Saturday, while December reached s1asc.
Throughout the day there seemed a dlspo-
sition to sell the September on bulges and
buy the far month. This caused 1sc differ
ence between September and December ALI
day Paris cables were up TO equal 1l4c.
Other foreign markets were closed Nat
uraily there was lots for sale on a bulge
like the present one and perhaps ii will go
a cent lower, but there is no doubt about
the situation heing bulish and the crop
short. We believe IL safe to get on the
long side on all declines as il is useless
to fight actual conditions. Wheat will sell
oftener above soc than below from now on.
Corn.-Favorable weather and liberal Of
ferings by Nebraska and Iowa were too
much for the bulls In corn and although
there was good strength carly In sympathy

apathetic market, neither an infusion of
bull or bear dope coursing through its veins
is the story of the days transactions
Considerable effort was made by the room
traders to bear the rails and force liquida-
tion, but there was an absence of long stock
offered. Union Pacific and Missouri Pacific
lost each fractional point, while Atchison
are favorites with United States Steel. At
present these properties do not depend upon
the crop situation. Their chief revenue is
derived from coal. Already the demand has
increased, with the price of anthracite 10c
a ton higher. The scale of prices will be
raised monthly and the approach of fall
means more demand.
