Chicago Grain and Provisions.

Chicago, Aug 22-The corn market av-
eraged higher today. though the best
prices were not maintained. Trade was
largely local in character and buying on
the low points was noticeable. The SELL
ing pressure diminished somewhat. the
rally in foreign exchange from its recent
extreme, low points being a factor which
worked against bearish market. The
present premium of the cash product over
September also told against declining
prices. Corn closed weak. unchanged to
1c lower, September showing the greatest
decline. Final figures were: September.
s1.S4@184A, and December. $1.44A @
1447s. Oats closed a shade higher to &c
lower, and provisions finished 45c lower
to 65c higher, January lard exhibiting
the only decline.
Domestic demand for corn showed i'm
provement today and purchases OF large
quantities Of the Texas grain were re-
ported.
A tendency to swing away from bearish
sentiment was observed in the oats mar
ket, as in the major grain. Oats prices
| ran somewhat higher, fluctuations being
in narrow limits, selling pressure being
apparent at the close. There was no evil
dence Of foreign demand, but the domestic
trade was active. Country offerings were
moderate.
Provisions advanced generally. the bulge

strength. Advance in live hog prices was
contributing factor and offerings were
