CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Corn Prices Advance on Expectation oi
Damage TO Crop from Frost.


Chicago. Sept 4.-Misgivings In regard
to possible serious damage by frost made
the corn market today average higher. Prices
closed unsettled September, $1.6b Il Q1b6h;
as a whole sc off to Tsc up compared with
"a hours before. Oats advanced hQS to
nc net. The outcome In provisions varied
from 1oc decline to a gain Of 2hc.
Heavy frost this morning in Minnesota
together with predictions Of frost tonight in
wisconsin kept corn traders uneasy through
out the session. Trade, however, lacked
volume, and Il was not until after the gov
ernment weekly crop report was issued that
upturns seemed to have any lasting charac-
ter. The greater strength which then de-
veloped was largely due to the fact that ac-
cording to the report the bulk of the crop
would not be safe from frost damage before
September Is or 20. Attempts to realize
profits though brought about q rather sharp
reaction in the last thirty minutes OF the
day.
Government inquiry put firmness into oats.
Besides, receipts were not large, and Cana
dian crop estimates were bullish.
Provisions hardened little owing to the
monthly stock report, which showed a de-
crease of about 100000 pounds Of meats
and 1000 pounds of lard.
