Chicago, Aug. 2S.-Clear weather In | the Northwest had a depressing effect
 on the local wheat market today but l fair demand by shorts caused a firm | tone at the close, final quotations on the December delivery being up 1-s. l Corn was also 1-S higher Oats were practically unchanged. Provisions were 2 1-2@12 1-2@15 lower.
 Sentiment in the wheat pit was bear
 ish for the greater part of the day
 and the volume of trading was small Lower cables and an absence of rain in tho spring wheat country were the chief influences for lower prices. The | feature of the market was the persist ent liquidation of the September op- | ton by local holders. Country accept ances were light but cash houses re- | ported that the movement will tin all This encouraged additional sales. Dur ing the last fifteen minutes of trad ing the market became more animated, there being a good demand by short.
 receipts for today as compared with the same day last year was one req
 son for the increased demand. The
 tone at the close was firm, prices be-
 December opened shade to 1-S lower at 74@741-S sold off to 73 5-S and
 then advanced to "A IA. Final quota tions were at "A If.
 Clearances Of wheat and flour were
 equal to 24S,400 bushels. The worlds visible supply as shown by Bradstreet's increased 3,090,000 bushels. Primary
 receipts were 429 900 bushels compared with 607 900 bushels one year ago. Min
 neapolis. Duluth and Chicago reported
 receipts of 214 cars against 21S last week and 215 one year ago.
 The corn market was inclined to be weak early in the day on selling by
 cash houses Weather conditions are now considered favorable for the rapid maturity for the growing crop and this accounted, according to receiving | houses for substantial increase in coun- | try acceptances. Local receipts today | were larger than had been estimated,
 the total arrivals being S6S with 200 | of contract grade.
 Late in the session a firmer tone de- veloped on covering by shorts which was based on the expectation of small l local receipts tomorrow. The market
 changed to a shade higher at 43 7-s@
 A to A. sold off to B 5-S@4S 3-4 and l then advanced to 44@44 Is. Final quo-
 tations were at 44@44 Is,
 Trading in the oats was quiet and
 movement from the country was the | chief depressing influence. There was
 considerable changing from September
 to the December delivery December
 tween 30 1-40 30 3-S and 30 5-S and
 closed at 30 I-2@ 30 5-S. Local receipts were 358 cars.
 | Provisions were weak because of | liberal receipts of live hogs. Trading
 was dull, there being a very slack de- was off 1-2 at $1700. Lard was down 71-2 at $S671 1-2. Ribs were 12 1-26 15

36 Commerce Street.
 New York, August 2S.-The coll9pse in prices came almost as suddenly as the sensational rise. It is true that Liverpool opened fully up to the mark this morning and that early prices here were almost equal to the high water mark of yesterday but there was a definite effort necessary to maintain prices and the bull leader seems to have suddenly made up his mind that without outside support he cannot lift prices any higher and sud denly changed front. At any rate, off, ferings soon became heavy and as no support was at hand prices broke rapidly. A decline of twenty-five points from the top of the morning rise re- suited and a general feeling prevails that the attempt to start a bull move ment is i'll timed. and the swing will now to be to a lower level than seen before.

New York. Aug. 2S.-The cotton mar ket was more active today and had 2 very sharp break under a reneWaL oI bear pressure and liquidation. The If S2mss points. Sales for the day were estimated at 100000 bales The opening was steady at unchanged prices to an S,S Sdyanee rss,sa of ana further
 ports of crop deterioration.
 Prices worked up to net adVance of about to points on the actiye months immediately following the can, buf there was no sign of an important hull support and there were rumors thai the bull leaders were selling DC, tober on the advance. The demand from smaller shorts became less act i've, consequently. and the market to- ward midday turned quite easy under selling through wire and commissloh houses with Southern connexions ana renewal of bear pressure whlch became more aggressive in the middle or the afternoon and forced the market on Fo Sg9 for October and 9.O5 Tor De- eember or about 2S to 29 points down from the top price of the morning. The close was steady on covering but at practically the lowest point or the ses- sion. .,aor.a ysy,, favorable and the weekly report or the weather Bureau failed to indicate any rause for deterioration beyond that ex- pected as the crop app .approachSTs s, Teras Iss is- sued by a prominent southwestern or. ranization reported deterioration oI 6 per cent. for the month, but showed an average well above last years hg- nres.

A DUSKY TERROR FROM KAKA-

Mary Gordon Bennett, the dusky ter

Mary has made quite a reputation in
the Jail, having made times st1enuous
for the guards on various occasions
When she was prepared for her appear
ance i'm court to be arraigned, she made
vigorous objections, and at once began
tearing her dress off by way of show
ing that she didn't want to appear in

several guards quoted her and final

WHO KNOWS OF
THE BEEF TRUST2
ANOTHER DEFENDANT DENIES
KNOWLEDGE AND ASKS TO BE
DISMISSED FROM CASE.

A beef trust answer was filed in the
Federal court this morning by Thayer
& Hemenway in behalf of George H.
Holt. He denies that he is in any
combination, like the rest of those who
have answered, and like the Kauai
respondents he says he doesn't know
us to the rest The answer is "A very
lengthy one, and contains specific de-
malls of all the discriminating allega-
tions i'm the complaint.
Finally Holt says that "he has always
in raising and selling his beef cattle
acted without regard to the purposes
and wishes of anyone else; that he has
never been a party to any" trust or
combination but he always sold his
beef in the open market; THAT he is
largely dependant for his livelihood up
on his business of raising and selling
cattle, and has never withheld from the'
market cattle, suitable for sale, for the
purpose of thereby causing a scarcity in
the supply and an increase i'm the price
thereof, but has always been obliged
because dependant on said business
aforesaid, to accept the prevailing mar
ket rate for his cattle at the time of
any sale; that further he has always
attempted to so manage his business as
to enable him to sell as many cattle as
possible without injury to said business
and to his own best advantage"
