Chicago Grain and Provisions,

Chicago. Aug. 20.-The corn market was
irregular and exhibited a succession of de-
clines and rallies, closing firm after a
speedy working away from late low points,
Light offerings, u further decline in for
eign exchange rates and the demands of
shorts were contributing factors. The close
was firm, 1]sc to 1hc net lower on dis
tant months and NC to l &c net higher
for September, the only delivery finishing
at advance
Closing prices for corn were Septem-
Der. $1.S4A to $1.S4h and December
$1.43h to SLASH. Oats closed We lower
to NC higher and provisions finished un-
changed to zoe lower.
Sentiment in the corn market was more
mixed than of late and prices underwent
rapid changes. Some of the early sellers
bought freely later. Most Of the trading
was of a local character. The decline In
sterling exchange was apparently ignored
after the opening and firm tendency
showed itself rallies following every SELL
ing movement Commission house buying
was evident on the low points.
Oats followed the course of corn with a
firm undertOne, most of the time and re-
sistence to selling pressure in which a
domestic cash demand figured.
Provisions moved generally with grain
Export business was hampered by the low
foreign exchange rates. The undertons
was weak toward the end Of the session,
but fluctuations were in narrow limits

Market and Industrial News of the Day
FINANCIAL

New York. Aug, 9o,-The more conf
dent feeling created yesterday by the
speedy settlement of the traction strike
was completely dispeled today by fresh
nisgivings regarding current financial and
| industrial problems.
Prices were firm to strong at the out
set, but eased all around before midday
and weakened before the close on the alb
solute Generalization which prevailed in
the foreign exchange market and grow
ing apprehension to the outcome OF
the steel workers strike vote.
Favorable developments, such as the
reduction Of the bank acceptance rate
and prospects OF an amicable adjustment
refiners and the Navy department were
ignored in the more obvious events OF
the day.
Call money also offered ground for un-
hardening appreciably in the final hour
on withdrawal Of funds by interior banks
to meet demands In their respective To-
calities.
In connection with the further slump
Of exchange in London. Paris and Rome.
which extended to other continental Eu
ropean centers II was rumored that the
French government had entered into ac-
forthcoming from high financial inter
ests.
Authorities secuted the idea Of a pro-
tracted strike In the steel trade. but their
views were not shared by traders, as In
dicated by United States Steels decline
to sS$. its lowest price In four months,
and a drop of ~ points.
Reversas In other standard stocks
ranged from to points. specialties sus-
tanning losses Of to almost 10, the mar
ket closing almost at lowest levels. Sales
amounted to $4,000 shares.
Liberty bonds were fairly steady. but
the general list including foreign issues.
was heavy. Total sales. par value. ag-
gregated $lo,675.000. Old United States
bonds unchanged
Another decline in United States Steel,
which fell to new low price for the cur
rent movement. unsettled other industrials
and the general list In the last hour The
closing, was weak.
Reactionary tendencies In todays stock
market resulted mainly from renewed la
Dor disturbances and the further collapse
Of foreign exchange. Sales Appropriated
