CHICAGO. August 9.-Sharp curtail-
ment in the volume Of trading was the
most evident feature today on change
here. Opening prices. which ranged
from the same as yesterdays finish
to ~ lower. with September 1856 to
1861 and December 1.49 to $50 were
followed by continued weakness in
the new crop deliveries and by the
virtual wiping out Of transient gains
in September.
Oats reflected the conditions in the
u advance. including September at
~ to 72K. the market hardened q
little, but then underwent a moderate
decline.
Dealings In provisions were almost at
standstill. Quotations were nomi-
nally lower, owing to absence OF sup
port.
