Germs thousands Of dollars.
This year q new arrangement has
been put into effect, Lumberjacks no

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, Ills, July 30.-Corn de-
clined in value today largely as a re-
suit Of scattered rains and a prospect
of more. The chief selling was on the
part of houses with country connec-
tons. Trade. however, lacked VOL
ume. Opening prices which ranged
from 5-8c to 3 5-Sc lower with Sept.
$1.93 to 1876 and Dec. $3.50 1-2. to

Oats eased down with corn. After
opening unchanged to SAC off includ-
ing Sept. at soc to 80 IA, the market
continued to sag.
Provisions were upheld by renewed
strength in the hog market.
Toward the last of the session
month-end demand for July gave
strength to that delivery but. other
months showed increased weakness on
account Of belief that rains were at
hand. The market closed unsettled 1
