CHICAGO. Aug. IA bearish sentiment
pervaded the grain and provision pits to-
day and September wheat closed %q%c
oats were &c lower. while provisions were
from 21lc higher to Zoe lower.
Wheat had a sharp setback from the adj
vance it made yesterday and the market
ruled weak the greater part of the session.
Opening prices were weak on a severe de-
cline at Paris, together with excellent har-
vest weather in the Northwest, and Sep
TENDER was off ss61zc at Dac to 1880.
There was quite general selling at the
start, with some of the large commission
houses and some local longs prominent on
that side of the market. and after
touching SOC September started on the down
grade. and although there were some re-
actions, the general tendency was toward
lower prices. The Northwest and st. Louis
markets were lever, which added to the
depression here. After selling down to 79lsc,
September rallied somewhat, but the close
was weak and %q%c lower at 1850. Clear
ances of wheat and flour were equal to
49S. 100 bu. Primary receipts were 564.4o0
bu, against 1.036, 800 a year ago. Bradstreet's
exports Of wheat and flour for the week
were equal to 100000 blu. Minneapolis and
Duluth reported receipts of 19 cars, which,
with local receipts of 135 cars-15 of con-
tract grade-made total receipts for the
three points of 264 cars, against ISL last
week and 29s a year ago.
Notwithstanding the weakness In wheat,
corn prices held comparatively firm, but
trading was Of mail volume. The weather
generally was more favorable for the grow
ing crops and the movement was freer.
Gables were strong, and but for the de-
cline in wheat the market would have made
a good advance. After selling between 52G
52%c September closed unchanged at 52tc.
Local receipts were 131 cars, with 10 Of
contract grade.
Oats ruled fairly active, and with the
support Of commission houses and some OF
the local bulls the market held steady in
spite of the weakness In wheat. Liberal
m of contract oats were a help to
prices. The close was steady, with Sep
TENDER &c lower at 34hc, after ranging
between 34AQ34hc. Local receipts were 2s
cars.
Provisions sold off sharply early in the
day, due to offerings from outside holders
and some selling by packers, but later a
fair demand developed for lard and the
whole list responded in the upturn. Trad
fng was quiet on the whole. September pork
closed zoe lower at $l3.27ia. September lard
was 212c higher at X.9212. Ribs were on

Stock Market Tends to Dizziness.
IMaver e. Kisar,s Wire


NEW YORK. Avg. 7.-Primarily to-day's
market has been ~erratic, suggestive of ex-
ternal weakness at times, but holding it
self comparatively well, even If the un-
dertone lacked that basic strength which
makes FOR better prices eventually. Net
losses for the day averaged ~ points, with
a few stocks showing heavy declines and
still fewer rejecting uncompromising stead
mess. The average which embraces prac-
tically the entire list was the result of the
downward tendency induced by technical
factors, which were insufficiently counter
acted by a vague support, scattered buying
by those who believe that good stocks can
not In conscience go much lower, and short
covering by nervous bears. The factors con-
spring to send prices down were further
pended firms, short selling and drives
against specific stocks. Canadian Pacific
was the feature of the day. A drive against
it at noon broke the price badly. Rumors
that the pool in the stock was in trouble
was the chief reason offered to explain its
weakness. Reading was cratic, strong i'm
the early dealings and then selling off.
The steel stocks were fairly steady, but
lacked the substantial support accorded
them yesterday. The Rock Island stocks
showed some strength. Missouri Pacific
broke and reacted, but showed less pressure
