WONDERS OF RADIUM.
It Is Worth Fully $500 Times Its
 Weight in Gold.

If the new element radium, could by any possibility be secured in quantities and at a cost fitting it for commercial uses. it would be by all odds the most powerful force which human beings had ever brought under their control To make it work all one needs to do is to have it. It gives off so much heat that it will melt more than it's own weight of ice in an hour A fragment of it held near the skin will quickly produce an open sore. It is so powerful that NJ. Curie. its discovereT, says that d pound of it in a room would probably kill everybody present. And it does all it's work with such a slight loss of weight that scientists figure that it would lose only one grain from each square inch of surface in q thousand million years.
 But in the getting of it is the trou- ble. Some facts as to it's scarcity are given in the current number of tho Nineteenth Century and After and of the Contemporary Review. It is ob- tained from the mineral pitchblende, where it occurs in such minute quauU ties that it would require over 400 tons of the mineral to yield a pound troy of radium. The pitchblende is itself so scarce that rough guess has beel

BEARISH SENTIMENT RULES
GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
WHEAT HAS SHARP SET
BACK FROM ADVANCE.
Corn Prices Hold Comparatively
Firm, Though Trading Is
of Small Volume.

Chicago, Aug. IA bearish sentiment
pervaded the grain and provision pits to-
day, and Sept. wheat was ssGAc lower:
Sept. corn unchanged: cats isc lower, while
provisions were from PIC higher to 2oc
lower.
WHEAT.
Wheat had a sharp setback from the adj
vance 1t made yesterday. and the market
ruled weak the greater part of the session.
Opening prices were weak. owing to excel
lent harvest in Northwest; Sept. was off
sc to &c at 79aQ797sc. There was quite n
general selling at the start. with some Of
the large comnission-houses and some To-
cal longs prominent on that side of the mar
ket, and after touching SOC Sept. started on
the down grade. and although there were
some reactions the general tendency was
toward lower prices. The Northwest ard
st. Louis markets were lower, which added
to the depression here. After selling down
TO 7Slsc. Sept. rallied somewhat, but the
close was weak and SsI1c lower at 79sac
Az, lo0 bu. Primary receipts were So, 500 bu.,
against 1,0S6,9O0 bu. year ago. Brad
week were equal to 100000 bu Minneapolis
and Duluth report receipts of l29 cars,
which, with local receipts OF 1875 cars, Is OF
contract grade, made the total receipts for
liie three puiIltS Cl cars, against cars
last week and 2SS cars q year ago.
CORN.
Notwithstanding the weakness in wheat
corn prices held comparatively firm, but
trading was of small volume. The
weather generally was more favorable for
the growing crop, and the movement was
freer' cables were strong, and but for the
decline in wheat the market would have
made good advance. After selling between
SIC and 52@sc. Sept closed unchanged at
52isc. Local receipts were 1Si cars, with 10
OF contract grade
OATS.
Oats ruled fairly active, and with the sup
port Of commisson-housesa and some of the
local bulls, the market held steady, in spite
Of the weakness in wheat. Liberal ship
ments Of contract oats were help to
prices. The close was steady, with Sept lac
lower at 3ilsc, after ranging between 34isc
and S4,9c. Local receipts were 2IS cars.

WEATHER AND CROP NEWS
is BEARISH.
Corn Rallies Early, but Close
Weak and Lower, With Little
Outside Support.

Local grain markets were sharply on the
downturn at yesterdays session. The
Northwest did not continue the support
which 1t had been giving to futures. for the
last few days. and there was a general dis
position on the part Of professional traders
to ease their lines. The foreign inquiry was
very light. and most OF the domestic news
was bearish. Receipts were on the increase:
local stocks in store were rapidly becom-
ing larger. There was little outside buying
demand.
Sept wheat opened 1i@Ac on and sold at:
so,c sse, solse sogsosc. soc. 7s7sc. 7ssc. SAC.
All things considered, corn showed more
strength than wheat. The drop in tenn
perature and the light receipts were bull
was good in the first hour. Later the mar
ket broke in sympathy with wheat and
closed easy.
