1 CHICAGO. Aug. -Wheat-News
in wheat was bullish today but un-
easiness over the railroad situation
brought heavy profit-taking through
out the day. Cash houses bought
ness. but speculative trade was ner
! ing.
| The decline Of the day was not
great in view of the quantities sold.
Present suffciency Is encouraging 9
larger volume of export business than
our available supply will warrant, and
as this situation win probably obtain
so long as foreigners are willing to
pay the price. the outcome will be q
hullish situation equal to the highest
expectation for the holders.
Corn-The much heralded bull
movement in corn. which started yes
| terday and was advertised over night
as just beginning. did not gain enough
! friends to counteract the possibility
| OF railroad strike. The market Op-
I'ened higher, but gradually declined
through the day and lost some ground
| as compared with last nights close.
Offerings of cash corn were a little
| heavier, and the expectation Is for
good sized receipts Monday. Scat
tered showers over the eastern part
OF the belt were factors helping along
| the decline. A good trading market
is anticipated. On sharp breaks, the
buying side seems advisable.
Oats-There was keen demand
for oats early both in the spot market
and the pit Cash and commission
houses were buyers of the futures.
The influence of declining prices in
wheat and corn was felt towards the
end OF the session, and the closing
was easy. At the present time the
porary setback would not be surpris-
| ing.
