CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago. Aug. 15-Liberal sales by leading hold
ers caused slump in wheat prices on the local
exchange to-day. the September delivery closing
at a net loss OF 1c. Corn was off 11sc TO 1Ao. Oats
were 1c 11sc lower. Provisions were &c to 1870
higher
The wheat market made brief show OF strength
at the start owing additional rains in the North
west which partially offset the effect OF the weak
ness of foreign markets. Before the end or tho
first hour however, prices had started on the
down grade as a result of free selling OF Decem-
Der BY two influential longs. This selling brought
out considerable sales from smaller holders and
before the decline was checked prices dropped
from 11sc to 1Ac TO 1Ssc to 114c below the high
point A prediction that the shipment OF new
wheat from Nebraska and Northern Kansas Will
begin within few days inspired additional bear
ish sentiment. The break In corn also added TO
the weakness. The market continued heavy the
balance OF the day and closed weak at almost the
bottom September opened &c to i$c lower to
then declined to 92%zc to s47sc. The close was at
93c to 93Lsc. CIearances of wheat and flour were
equal to $4,000 bushels Primary receipts Were
775 900 bushels compared with 900 bushels the
corresponding day a year ago. Minneapolis Du-
luth and Chicago reported receipts OF 247 cars,
against 2S1 cars last week and 337 cars year ago
General rains throughout Iowa and other por-
tions of the belt were the main reason for
severe slump in corn prices. The September op-
ton was sold freely on the probaaskY that re-
CENTS would be much liberal in the near
future, while the December option was sold on the
theory that its premium May too great.
The Illinois crop report for August showed a loss
IN acreage of 1855 and gain OF two points
in condition compared with the government fig
t.-es. The market was weak throughout tne entite
day and closed only trifie above the low mark
September opened Isc to nc TO i4c to 9sc lower at
76ssc to T6S4c, sold at 7s7sc to TIC and then de-
clned TO 751ac. The close was at 75H4c. Local re-
ceipts were I60 cars. with 81 of contract grade.
oats were weak in sympathy with other grain.
There was some selling by local holders. and also
moderate offerings from cash interests. Septem-
her opened nc to NC lower at 46s4c to 4e7sc sold
off TO 45Jkc. and closed at 457sc TO Acc Local re-
ceipts 204
Although trade in provisions was quiet, the mar
ket was firm the entire day because of a 10c sd
vance in live hogs At the close September pork
was up 12lzc at s15 o7h Lard was DC higher. at
