COLLAPSE IN PRICES
End OF Heat and Drsught Causes
Change In Grain Market
Selling Erive Radical

Chicago. July "a sudden COLLAPSE
in prices today came as an immediate
result of the end of the heat and

| Oats made a close second finishing
| "a to rs down. Wheat was next
IL and IL to +? lower than last
| night Provisions too scored a decline
| a nickel to a quarter OF a dollar.
Corn sharply reversed the action OF
yesterday and closed at almost the
bottom figures of the session. AT one
time there was quite a pronounced
recovery due TO resting orders OF a
scattered source and to scalping by
the larger local traders. The market,
however, lacked prominent support.
Moreover at the outset especially
there was a general rush to the selling
side.
In addition to wide spread rain and
to the breaking in the hot wave a
statement issued by "a well known
authority declares that contrary to
popular impression the corn crop as
whole was in excellent condition and
needed only moisture.
There were many private reports
of damage over larger section than
heretofore but spectators appeared
in no mood to give such ideas any es-
pecial attention.
Although the selling drive in its eff.
ect proved nearly as radical as the
buying furry of yesterday although
many operators seemed much in doubt
as to the supposed benefits of the rain
in at least big part OF the belt
During the session September rang
ed from 63A to 65 closing fairly
steady at Ga. net loss of 25s
Oats broke under the weight of
heavy selling on the part of yester-
days buyers. Afterwards there was
a good rally but the market gave way
again with the corn.
The rains and the cooler weather
formed the chief factor in the oats
set back. September fuctuated be-
tween As and 457s with last scales
w. and "a off at 451s and "a.
Wheat missed a sustaining influence
that had been previously given by
corn and oats. Less favorable crop
reports from North Dakota did not
make an acceptable substitute.
New receipts pouring mostly from
Illinois and Indiana had also de-
cided effect. High and low points
touched by the Septmeber option were

The close was steady but 11s and
