CHICAGO GRAIN
By Associated Press.

By AsSocldted RreSS.
CHICAGO, Aug. 1O.-Lack OF Geographic ia
Ciltties, due to the telegraphers' strike, tended
- paralyZe business the board of trade and
caused weakness in the grain and provision
pits. At the close wheat for September deliv-
cry was down 1bc; was off &c; oats
showed a net loss of %Q%c, and provisions
were 7h@22lac lower.
The wheat market was weak all day on gem
eral selling by pit traders and local longs. The
selling was due mainly to the uncertainty
growing out of the strike and to fear that
the situation might become still more acute by
d spread of the trouble.
decline in the price of wheat on the Min
neapois curb also induced considerable selling.
Favorable weather for the crop was largely
responsible for the weakness in the northwest
ern market. Trade was quiet all day. The
market closed weak. September opened 5000
to 11sc lower at S7ssqSSc, sold off to S$7sc and
closed at 87bqS7hc
Sentiment in the corn pit was bearsh the
entire session because of the strike. Prices,
he viewer, showed only a moderate loss because
of fairly good support by leading bull, The
close was weak. September opened h@hc
lower at 541sQ55c sold off to b49sc and closed
at 4&454Tsc.
The government report and the strike brought
out considerable Iroft taking sales in oats and
caused a sharp slump in prices. September
opened unchanged to u clover at 45Q45Ac,
sold off to 441sc and closed at 441sqi4Nc.

NEW YORK, Aug. 10.-There was demon
allied tone in the short session Of the stock
market today, as windup to week OF dis
order In the last Ave minutes of the session
the bears bought with some recklessness to
reap the profits accrued from the extensive
fall in prices
with that exception there was no effective
buying at any time and prices crumbled away
almost uninterruptedly under flood of sales
in all variety OF sizes. The Pacific railroad
stocks and the copper industrials showed the
most acute weakness, keeping their undesira-
BILE prominence or the week. Union Pacific
fell an extreme SIS, reporting the maximum
decline in the active list, but the Hill stocks
Southern Pacific Reading and American
Smelling were affected in only less degree
with losses running to four points or more
The whole market turned on the govern
mental and public attitude towards corpora
ttors.
The statements published this morning as
coming from Attorney General Bonaparte af-
ter his interview yesterday with the president
were the central factors in the new anxiety
professed by holders OF securities The notice
thus served on the corporations, that they
might look for the pursuit of prosecution to
the possible limit for all discoverable onenses
under the law, caused something like conster-
nation in the speculative sentiment in the
market.
The contents of an interview with John D.
Rockefeller, also published this morning, We're
situation that 1t added fuel to the flames Inc
weakness in foreign markets helped on the
decline, British consols going to a new low
record.
Rumors circulated without verifcation of un-
disclosed money difficulties in London and
Berlin, and the violence of the decline here
gave rise to uneasness over the consequences
of the local position. The bank statement, al
though 1t revealed new increase in the sur
plus reserve, failed to check the decline, and
in fact aggravated it.
While three weeks of drastic liquidation of
securities was reflected in a loan contraction OF
SIG, 107 00O 1t was believed that the liquidation
borrowings of the latter part of the week were
not reflected in this showing. Heavy require
ments of the same sort also are to be met
next week.
The loss of 100 in cash. compared with
estimates of $4,000 900, showed an unexplained
drain on reserve resources which aroused fears
of further drastic forced liquidation. The
closing tone was feverish and unsettled, and
at only small recoveries from the lowest points
in any case. -

NEW YORK DRY GOODS.

: New York, Aug. 24.-Both the prt-
mary and jobbing dry goods markets

of special weaves are received daily
tends to show that the demand is far
in excess of the supply for all classes
of cotton fabrics.
