WHEAT IS A
BIT LOWER
News Was BuIIiSh but Bears
Prevailed.
CORN AND OATS WEAK
Provisions Close Firm and at
an Advance.

Chicago. Aug. 10-In spite of general
bullish news, the wheat market ruled
weak the latter part OF the session and
September closed at loss of 1sq14c. Sep
tenber corn was a shade lower and oats
also were a shade lower. but provisions
closed firm, the September product being
from 5Gl0c higher
Wheat opened with a good show Of
strength, influenced by higher cables,
continued small movement and unfavor-
able weather. September being 1zGssc
higher, al s05sG S0s4c. The early market
was active, considerable profit-taking in
the December and May deliveries, which
caused an easier feeling during the first
hour, but the news in general favored
the bulls, and private estimates on the
new crop being more pessimistic than
the most enthusiastic bull anticipated,
and under this influence the market again
became stron gtoward the noon hour.
During the last hour there was quite
heavy liquidation due to the reports that
the private estimates on the crop were
altogether too low. and despite the ef-
forts of the bulls the market receded,
September selling off to 7sa. 9793sc, and
closing at 1874 ldS0c, loss of h9Ac. Clear
ances of wheat and -four were equal TO

ported receipts of 175 cars, which, with
local receipts of 1s6 cars, Al cars of con-
tract grade, made total receipts for the
three points of 3A cars, against 325 cars
last week and 5sS cars year ago.
Coorn ruled strong early in the day, in
sympathy with the strength in wheat
and in higher cables and cooler weather
in the corn belt. After selling between
52isc and 52ac. September closed a shade
lower, at 52lsa52Ac. Local receipts were
159 cars. with % of contract grade
Oats were firm early. but free selling
by some of those houses which were SELL
ing corn turned the market easy. The
close was about at Saturdays closing
figures, with September a shade lower,
al S4Ac, after selling between 34sc and
3412c. Local receipts were 2s3 cars
All house trading in provisions was
quiet, prices ruled firm. due to a better
tone in the hog situation. Locals were
the best buyers. The close was firm,
with September pork 10c higher, at
slS. 421a. September lard was up sc, at
SS.071z. while ribs were 59715c higher, at

MILL WILL BE SHORT.
Jeffries Won't Permit the Bout to Drau
AIonQ.

Sacramento, Cal. Aug. 1G-The latest
news from Harbin Springs is to the effect
that Champion Jeffries now weighs close
to 230 pounds but does not appear to be
fleshy. Trainer Delaney is confident that
the mill with Corbett will be eompara-
lively a short one.
THE champion" he said today. "does
not intend to permit the bout to drag
along to an endless length. Jeffries will
fight with such strength and l hope that
he viii early bring Corbett down in the
question of agility When he once gets
him there the battle will be considered
over"
When this statement was repeated ia
Corbett the latter said:
so Jeffries expects to make the fight
short one, does he? hope he tries TO,
for if he does he will find me on hand.
He will not have to chase around, either.
for / have invented a short arm defense
which l believe will prove an enigma to
him. l am a much stronger puncher
now than l have ever been and firmly be-
lieve that 1 will be able to put force
enough into my blows to knock Jeffries
down and put him out"
