IG1AY'S MARKE! REPORT.

Chicago, Aug. N.-CORN-Corn again be-
came the center of activity today and
the market nervous and excited scored a
substantial advance. Opening prices were
1sc to sc higher with December showing
that range at 693sc to 695sc. December
quickly jumped to zoe. Bull leaders took
command early. some of the leading
houses adding largely to their already big
holdings. Continued dry weather in most
of the corn belt and talk of a greatly re-
duced crop prospect were the chief bull
influences.
Selling on the bulge caused a slight
weakening of values. The close was weak
with December at 69@69ssc, a net gain
of Lice
WHEAT-Wheat shared in the upward
course of corn opening, figures being &c
to 3s@12c higher. December started at
90A G91c and advanced to 91Ac. Too much
moisture in the northwest was a potent
bull factor. Higher cables also helped
lift prices.
The market after slight reaction on
profit taking rallied but the recovery did
not hold. The close was weak with De-
cember at 907s491c, a net gain of sc.
OATS-OatSs rose with other grain. De-
cember began at 45c to 45Ac and steadied
at 4515c.
PROVISIONS-Provisio hardened a
little under support by packers after
steady opening, with prices unchanged to
sc up. First figures for January products
were pork 1895; lard, $10s21s; ribs. 5000.

New York Stock Market.

Wall ST., New York, Aug. N.-STOCKS-
Closing out of short contracts yesterday
and the advance in the latter part of the
day apparently weakened the technical
position of the stock market and in face
of the unfavorable features which the sit
uation presented today traders were not
of a mind to support prices. Renewed
selling from abroad particularly of South
ern Pacific was one of the chief influences
in depressing quotations. Announcement
of reduction of 81 a ton in steel billets
provoked selling of United States Steel
and the heaviness of this stock market
favorite affected the entire list, which
continued heavy throughout the morning.
News from Mexico threw no clear light
on the situation there and resumption of
the advance in the corn market was re-
garded as unfaVorable. Southern Pacific
fell to 901hc, the lowest since the terms
for the sale of the Union Pacific stock
were announced
Bonds were irregular.
The tendency of the leading speculative
stocks at the opening today was down
ward, although the advances of number
of issues gave the market an Irregular
appearance. Union Pacific, Smelling and
Amalgamated, the heaviest losers, lost a
point each. National Biscuit rose point
and General Electric nearly as much.
Southern Pacific again exhibited heavi-
ness, selling off to 905s-

ECZEMA FOR Soc
Had Spent $1,000 IN Vain, Then a Jar

Had Spent $1,000 IN Vain, Then jar
of Resino' Cured Him.
Franklin Burt, of 81 Fulton ST., New
York, late captain in the U. s. Army
and a man whose standing makes his
word absolutely beyond question gives
the following account of his cure By
Resinol:
II became afflicted with eczema
TWENTY-FIVE years ago. I did every
thing for it. but the itching and burn
ing was so intense and continual that
in 1893 l put myself in the care of a
specialist. The result was of little or
not any benefit.
Doctor Said "Gst Box Of Rssirel.''
about 1898 called on the doctor ia
ask him If he knew of anything to
cure me. He said, -'Get box of Res
mol Ointment" I got it, The itching
stopped as if by magic. BY the time
the jar of Resinol was all used the
cure was perfected. expended per-
haps a thousand dollars. and endured
real suffering for many years. and 1t
last was relieved and cured in a month
for the sum Of fifty cents, the price OF
one jar Of Resinol.'
Better proof, even than such letter,
is to try Resinol yourself and see how,
quickly the itching stops and stub
born skin and scalp eruptions disap-
pear For free trial write to Dept 1s-T
Resinol Baltimore, Md. Every drug
gist sells Resinol Ointment(50 and y1)
and Resinol Soap (25c).
