GRAIN PRICES ARE DOWN
WHEAT LOSES A FRACTION. DECEM-
BIER LEADING THE DECLINE.
Corn is Down in All Futures, but Oats
show Small Advance-Provisio
Are n Little Better.

CHICAGO. Aug. 2S.-wheat and corn
showed weakness to-day and prices ruled
lower. September wheat was a shade lower
while December was down ssGisc. Septem-
Der corn was off lsGAc, with December nc
under yesterdays close. Oats closed firm
at an advance of sc for September and with
December shade higher. Provisions were
steady: closed unchanged, az to 10c higher.
Wheat opened rather strong. influenced
by the rains in the Northwest yesterday
and firm Northwest markets. St Louis
bought wheat here and this also helped the
early upward tendency. September opened
unchanged to &c higher at Size to sl2sc and
early touched S&c, while December sold
up from SOS to $3.50. Elevator interests
led the buying and secured quite follow
ing, but the strength did not hold, locals
selling on the advance. causing a break in
September to S07sc, where it rallied some
what, closing barely steady at SlqSlsc,
shade under yesterdays final figure. De-
cember closed at the bottom price for the
day, S21sc, loss of ss4lsc. The weakness
was due more to the character of the selling
than to lack of buying orders or weather
or crop influences. Gables were depress-
ing influence and receipts showed fair
increase. Clearances of wheat and flour
were equal to 40S 800 blu.
Minneapolis and Duluth reported receipts
of 229 cars, which with local receipts of
IA cars-16 of contract grade-made a total
of 4S3 cars. against 26l last week and GIL
a year ago.
There was scattered selling in corn
throughout the session and while there was
good buying at times, the quantity taken
There was a little show of strength early
with wheat, but the close showed Septem-
Der down 1sqAc, at 5024@507sc, shade above
the low point of the day, after touching sic.
December closed 1ac lower at 50zq50.sc,
after ranging between 5034c and 5l$sc. Lit
tie interest was manifested in the market
and trading was dull. Receipts were 3S4
cars with II of contract grade.
Local longs continued to sell oats, but
there was an improved demand from cash
houses and the market showed better tone
after an easy opening, the close being
steady at an advance of sc for September,
at 361sQ36Ac. Reports of damage to crops
caused the better feeling. Cash demand
was also good. Receipts were 1S7 cars.
A strong hog market and a report OF con-
siderable cash lard taken for export caused
some strength in provisions. There was
also covering by shorts and good buying by
brokers and foreign houses. The close was
steady with September pork unchanged at

cepts of sheep and lambs for five days indicate
increase of 100 over the same time last week
and 100 over the corresponding time year
ago. The receipts to-day were about $50 smaller
than a week ago and show little change COM
pared with p year ago. Most of the arrivals to-
day had wet feeces and therefore, were less de-
sirable. Aside from that. however. the offerings
were in most respects equal to the average here
tofore this week. The market opened with a fair
demand from local butchers, and with about the
usual request from outside sources, the market
probably active could be expected
and prices in a general way We're reported
steady compared with the way equal kinds sold
yesterday. Occasionally, however, dealers re-
ported sales q shade lower, and, no doubt, prices
are right around 25c lower than the high time
this week, especially so far as the lambs are
concerned. very good clearance was finally

UNION sTOCKYARDs, INDIANAPOLIS. Aug
2s.-Cattle-Receipts, 1000: shipments. 300 For
the week thus far the receipts OF cattle ind-
cate a decrease of nearly 800 compared with the
same last week and increase of about 100
over the corresponding time year ago. The
receipts to-day only about half large
week ago and over 800 smaller than a year
ago.
Practically all kinds represented except
the best export steers and the quality generally
was something the average heretofc this
week. For the bulk of the cattle coming the
market continues rather unreliable and it has
been experienced this week that the conditions
day not a criterion of the succeeding
day. There was slight gain in prices Of the
best steers the early part OF the week. but prac-
tically all of this was lost by the middle of the
week. They were possibly shade stronger yes
terday. but prices to-day were no better than
Wednesday and in nearly the same position as
a week ago. The medium class OF steers have
been slow sellers at current prices. but the good
stockers and feeders have been in better demand
than last week. The female market il will be
remembered, was very dull the early part of the
week, and for the bulk of the supply sharp con-
cessions in prices had TO be made to consum-
mate sales. Yesterday there good out
let for this class OF cattle and to-day there was
a fair outlet. but prices Were satisfactory
yesterday. There has not been great change
in prices of cows good enough TO bring around
1915 and above, for heifers good enough to
sell around ST. % and upward but the cows that
last week sold from So. 25 to $3.50 have suffered
a decline of 25c TO 40c this week and there is
probably about the same change on the fair to
medium heifers. 1t does not appear that there
has been much change in prices of Gamers and
cutters. but in reality they are lower because
buyers have been getting better class of stock
at the same prices There has been a very fair
outlet for heifers for feeders
The market to-day not as active as yes
terday for any grade of stock and, in fact was
very dull for steers good enough to KILL This
class Of cattle wher sold were also generally
10c lower than yesterday. The supplies all week
including hold-over cattle. have been more than
large enough &c meet the requirements of buyers
and therefore they have been in a position to
dictate terms. Statesmen, however have found IL
difficult TO transfer consignments in number
OF cases because offers-although perhaps the
market vaue-were below country cost and
owners, of course, were reluctant in letting 60
