Wilson's Chicago Advices

CHICAGO, Aug. 22.-The news on
wheat has been rather in favor of
better prices, but the market has been
dominated by the easy and lower corn
market all day Routine news has not
been SO bearish. Cable advices were
rather firm in tone, with small ship
ments for other countries than Amer
lea, and Berlin was up rs on top of
1ssc advance yesterday Toledo was
strong at 92Hc for September, or sc
over us, and that market has bought
two cargoes of red wheat from Chi
cago within week, which shows how
tenaciously well to do farmers are
holding wheat in the center states and
how cheap the Chicago market is. We
still believe in being an owner of wheat
in this market.
Corn-Rains over entire southwest
and over Illinois, Indiana and Ohio.
as we'll made an easier market today.
Nevertheless, values. while fraction
ally lower. have not broken Local
industries have paid rs cents today
here for almost any cash corn avail
able, paving TING for No. 4 white
here. We would watch for buying
places on the December and May op-
tions
Oats followed corn Fluctuations
have been narrow and trade light
There was fair call for cash oats for
shipment and continued heavy arrivals
at primary centers.
Provisions-Dull and weak. Scattered
early selling of lard made a weak start
and the market never recovered to
any important extent. Support was
very poor.

STOCKS ARE SLOW
IN WALL STREET
Quotations Decline Gradu-
ally and Then Quietly
Recover Losses

NEW YORK. Aug. 22.--A slow recess
sion which carried down q dozen or
more stocks from one to two points to-
day was succeeded by an equally slow
recovery. and at the end of the session
the leading shares were close to yes
terday's final quotations. The day
passed without important news con-
cerning affairs upon which most en-
phasis is placed, and there was conse-
quently a general disinclination to do
much speculation.
Selling In decline was concenyated
on Steel. Union Pacific and Reading,
and the heaviness Of these shares af-
fected the remainder. There were no
sings of weakness, and shorts grew un-
easy.
It was due principally to short COW
ering that the market recovered its
losses. Reports of rains in sections of
the corn and cotton belts helped to
bring about the recovery. Affairs In
Mexico occupied less attention today,
for the reason that there was no news
of Importance from across the border,
Reports of record breaking foreign
trade for July and the last year passed
almost unheeded.
Al small gain in cash for the banks
on the week was indicated by known
movements In currency. There was an
easier tendency in the money market,
with quotable changes for the shorter
maturities. Commercial paper also was
easier, some paper being placed at a
shade under 6 per cent and scarcity
of choice names was reported. Country
banks continued to buy in volume:
Prices of bonds were shaded lightly.
Total sales, par value. S1,1 ,000
United States bonds were unchanged
on call.
j. c. Wilson'S Stock Letter
NEW YORK, Aug. 22-Prices were
weak in the stock market early to-
day without any apparent reason. ex-
cept that the traders felt bearish
Later in the afternoon efforts to cover
short sales developed scarcity of
stocks and brought about firm closing
all along the line The bank statement
tomorrow promises to be good one.
Better weather in the corn belt was
reported. We rather look for a better
market next week.
