Future Grain and Provisions.

CHICAGO Aug 6-Besides taking into ac-
count weakness at Liverpool and other foreign
centers, wheat traders here started with a
beartsh inclination owing TO favorable weather
conditions and the advices from Manitoba hold
ing out more cheerful prospects for the new
crop. Increased receipts were an additional
factor in the domestic situation. tending to
bring out liberal offerings. The market opened
with September off &c TO 1Ac at oslo. A
large quantity OF long wheat was offered for
sale during the first few minutes While there
was fair buying by Southwestern houses and
local shorts the demand was not sufficient to
prevent further decline, September falling to
96Ac AS soon as smaller holders had secured
profits the market became somewhat hrmer,
September rallying to 97c. For time the
trading rather light, with prices holding
fairly steady. report by a prominent Chi
cago operator, who has been investigating
the wheat situation IN the Northwest stated
that the spring wheat crop was in a critical
condition and caused fresh burst OF bullish
enthusiasm. Those who had sold short on the
more favorable advices Of the early part OF
the session hastened TO cover. There was also
good buying by bull leaders Under an active
demand September advanced TO 97%c. More
long wheat, however, came out on the bulge
and the market again eased of. September
closing at e7kQ97%e.
Corn was in sympathy with wheat Septeua-
Der closed OF shade at 52hc.
Oats were weak, September losing Ec, at
$3.50.
Reselling by packers in the face Of a poor
demand caused weakness IN provisions. At the
close September pork was down CSC. lard was
on 12hc and ribs 21545c lower.
