Future Grain and Provisions.

CHICAGO Aug. 19.-From the start both
the public and professionals in the wheat trade
seemed imbued with bullish enthusiasm and
bought eagerly but wildly. Initial trades were
at advances Of 114s TO &c for September at
81 OS TO 81 oSh and 19sQ1Bc TO 2AQ29sc for
december at ST O9A and 81 o9&. There ap
peared to be many causes for the higher mar
ket though the most potent Of them did not
become operative until the session was well
under way There were rains in Manitoba and
the Northwestern States, which threatened
dire results in the fields spared by the black
rust where harvesting is about to commence
or is actually in progress. Gables were higher
and 1t was predicted that Texas mlllers would
soon be in the market for wheat In spite
of these influences the bears gained control Of
the early market and on heavy realizing sales
prices receded to 81 O13s for September and
81 OSIb for December. Strongly contradictory
reports on rust in Manitoba appeared for a
time to create an uncertain feeling with
reversion of feeling came and pessimism seemed
to seize upon all alike. The Northwest start
ed to buy. A message from Minnesota point
was to the effect that not pint of grain
was to be found in the shocks OF many fields.
From that time on there We're relapses, but
only momentary ones. and with each advance
a new high point reached. September,
under the onslaught, was carried up to 81 10t5
and December to 81 1215. There was heavy
and values receded from the high point through
the weight Of offerings. September sold back
to 81 OSM but began again It's upward flight,
when the selling orders had been taken care
of. The close strong at 81 O9B- Decem-
Der broke to 81 105s. but reacted and closed

again to the closing figure. 1sc off the bot

In the oats market September opened shade
10 hQAc higher advanced with wheat and
closed easier at 344sc
Provisions started firm, presumably because
Of better prospects for the corn crop. Packers
reported good consumptive demand and the
tone for a time was helped by higher prices
for livestock. Support was lacking during the
last hour OF trading, however and values suf-
fered September pork closed 219Q5c lower;
lard was off 5d7l5c and ribs were down
