Future Grain and Provisions

CHICAGO Aug. 25.-The wheat market was
firm all day, but the greatest strength was
manifested during the last half of the session.
Initial quotations were from kc TO %c above
yesterdays close, September closing at e3kc
TO 937sc, and December at 94hc to 94%c. Re
ports from the Canadian northwest indicated
that rains were quite general the western
provinces, while the official forecast for Mime
sofa and the Dakotas predicted showers in those
states tonight. In addition to this unfayorabJe
situation, in the spring wheat country the mar
ket was bullishly affected by firm cables and
by the light stocks of contract wheat in store
throughout the United States. Cash wheat
premiums here were steady but the demand for
the cash grain reported very low. Ex-
port demand here also a negative uuan-
tity. Local bulls the principal buyers
throughout the entire session and by their ef-
forts forced September up to 94c and December
to 94Tc. Late in the day prices receded some-
what on profit taking. but the market closed
firm with September at 93l5 @93%c and De-
'e1Ipss Liberal receipts and continued favorable
weather for the new crop brought out moderate
selling of corn at the start, which resulted in
initial declines. The strength in wheat and
light country acceptances were not a factor
An advance OF nc to lc in the price Of the
cash grain was a factor First trades of the
year in July, 1909 option, were made today at

most the top price, September closing at 771kc

The market for spot goods is quiet, but

Some parties now estimate that the coming
crop of lima beans will be about so per cent

average.
The white bean acreage in the east is a

idly in the warm weather, had to be disposed OF
hurriedly at sacrifice rates. Good table peaches
in all kinds of packages moved OF freely but
many receivers were loaded up with canning
stock. which was practically unsalable Some
moderate quantities with up country canning
concerns but the movement in that direction
was not sufficient to relieve the market to any
extent. There temporary shortage Of
plums and prunes in crates, and a shipping in
quiry for them sent prices up little but loose
fruit remained weak on excessive supplies. Figs
were still in oversupply and easy in price while
in the grape line only the tokay and seedless
varieties showed the least frmness- Receipts
of berries were increased to 200 chests but the
demand was better than on the preceding day
and prices were a little hrmer. Ounces and red

the &c lost at the close OF last week, but went
lie higher than il prior TO the decline. I'm
der the call yesterday the market opened with
the previous quotation Of 23lae bid, but there
were supplies forthcoming and the buyers
kept raising their bids until the new quotation
of 261ac was reached. when buying ceased. The
under grades were unchanged, being weak, with
business quiet.
The egg market was quite active as far as
street trading concerned but only cheap
stock was in demand, the high priced fresh ex-
tras being neglected. Another nc was Topped

nothing new in cheese.
