CHICAGO LETTER.

Chicago, July 16-WHEAT-The ar
rival OF a few cars of new wheat from
the southwest which was of a good
quality gave the bears renewed cour-
age in their position on the market.
Despite the copious rains throughout
the northwest which 1t was feared
might do considerable damage, wheat
was weak throughout the session. There
were a few spasmodic rallies OF 8
quarter or three-eighths of a cent.
They were, however, only temporary.
At the final close of the session to-
night the market presents a loss OF
about a cent and one-half for the day.
September wheat sold down from 80 q
TO S2as. closing at the lowest price OF
the day. Lack OF export demand; con-
slant increase in the arrivals OF new
wheat: lower Liverpool markets and
aggressive selling pressure were the
chief bearish factors which brought
about the reaction and closed the mar
ket soft
CORN-Followed the example set by
wheat pit. declining about three-quart-
ers OF a cent, One OF the more promi-
nent bulls who has conspicuous in al
OF the coarse grains of late, was a
large seller of September and December
presumably it was long corn bought
at higher prices. Good rains every
where in the corn belt caused the weak
tone The reports of excessive moisture

OF consideration. Cash business only
