AFTER A NERVOUS SESSION
WHEAT BECOMES STRONG.
ONLY MODERATE BUSINESS
DONE IN GRAINS.
Lack of Selling Pressure Makes
Corn Slow, but Market Is
Steady at the Close.

Chicago Aug. 6.-There was only a mod
crate amount of business in the grain and
provision pits to-day. and after a rather
nervous session wheat closed strong, Sept.
being s.Q5sc higher. Sept. corn was I'M
changed. oats were up nc, but provisions
were from 2isc to TIC lower.
WHEAT;
Wheat ruled rather quiet throughout the
day. Opening prices We're weak on lower
cables and more favorable weather in the
Northwest. Sept. being shade to NGisc
lower at 7sde79;sc. The market continued
weak the first half Of the session on an en-
tire absence Of news which could be con-
strued as favorable to the bulls. but toward
the noon hour there was fair buying by
spectators and the price again recovered.
One Of the main causes for the advance was
the good export demand at the seaboard.
Offerings were limited the latter part Of
the day and this fact contributed to the
late strength. Under these influences Sept.
sold up to S0isc and closed at S0i4Gssc. net
gain of %@7sc. Clearances OF wheat and
-four were equal to 900, 400 blu. Primary re-
ceipts were $500 bu.. against $40 100 bu.
year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth reported
receipts of 20 cars. which with local re-
made total receipts for the three points OF
200 cars, against 1871 cars last week and
35s cars year ago
CORN.
Trading IN corn was comparatively slow.
owing to lack Of selling pressure and to
a scarcity Of outside buying orders. Favor
able weather conditions West and South
west caused some selling early. but offer
ings were well-taken by local traders. The
late strength In wheat helped corn prices
and the close was steady. with Sept. TN
changed at 52isc. after selling between 5;I,c
and 52l4c. Local receipts were 50 cars, with
Il cars of contract grade.
Oats sympathized some with the early
weakness in wheat. but offerings were
rather light and prices recovered without
much effort. The local favored the buying
side and there was also good demand
from some prominent commission houses
The close was firm with Sept. sc highe. at
S4i4c, after Ringing between 337sc and 34ttc.
Local receipts were Us cars.
