Features of the Trading and Closing
Hrlncn IN nnnrd Of Trnde.

CHICAGO, Aug. 3-Further assurances
from the northwest that the ~spring-sown
crop Of wheat is now practically beyond
the possibility of injury by black rust
caused a fresh slump In wheat today,
final quotations showing losses OF lac to
1i1c, compared with yesterday. Coarse
grain and provisions also closed weak.
The market was weak the entire session,
with the exception OF a brief period at
the opening. when moderate firmness was
manifest because Of the comparative
strength at Liverpool. where prices were
lad to 3sd higher, despite the decline here
the previous day. Severe declines at Min
n~eapolis-winter wheat breaking SIC
added emphasis to these advices, Septem-
Der ranged between 31,Ol%al.0lh and N.O4h.
The close was weak and only a trifle above
the lowest point, final figures on Septem-
Der being at N.02k.
Heavy realizing sales caused a severe
slump in corn, the losses at the bottom
ranging between 1hc and l&c. The selling
was inspired by the favorable condition OF
the new crop and by a break OF 1c to 1blc
in cash grain. TIL market closed weak,
at almost the bottom, with prices lk419sC
to 1sb81i7c below yesterday.
Free selling by local longs. together with
break OF &C to 7sc In oats. Closing prices
were h4Mc to NC lower than yesterday.
The monthly statement of stocks of pro-
visions in store here WAS much less bullish
than had been expected by many traders,
and. as a result OF this fact. there was a
great deal OF realizing. Prices at the close
were 15ni751c "a, 86c lower.
