Future Grain and Provisions.

CHICAGO, July 26-The wheat market ex-
hibited considerable weakness today during the
first part of the session on selling by cash houses
and local longs A moderate decline in the price
of wheat at Liverpool helped to encourage addi-
tional selling the local market. One reason
that was given for the selling pressure was a
fear OF still lar0er receipts here result of a
cut in freight rates grain between Kansas
City and Chicago. The market continued weak
until the last hour, when fair rally occurred
following talk of considerable export business
being done at New York Reports of rust in
the wheat fields OF North Dakota had some ef-
feet in creating the hrner feeling. Practically
all of the early loss regained and the mar
ket closed steady. September opened 1s@Ac
lower at 76& @T8l5e. sold off TO 7Glsc and then
advanced TO T6% Q76&5c and closed practically
unchanged at 76l Q76%c.

corn belt caused weakness in the corn market.
The market closed with prices at the lowest OF
the day September opened ls@$c lower at

weakness in the oats market. September opened
