CHICAGO, August 20.-Wheat started
weak today on local settings, word being
received that no new orders from ABROAD
were in evidence. After opening TO
3 under yesterdays finish, with Decem-
Der 235 to 236 and March 2.37. the mar
ket displayed further weakness and
prices soon carried cents below the low
point of the previous day:
There was scattered liquidation in
corn at the opening and the market
started sharply lower, some stop loss
orders being caught in September de-
livery. Prices dropped rapidly because
of lack of support. There was a good
class of buying in evidence on the
break, a strong commission house TAX
ing considerable September. The mar
ket opened unchanged to u lower, with
September lao to 1.401s and December
]. 2OA to 1903, and then showed further
weakness.
Oats were in sympathy with corn, and
although there was sale OF 100000
bushels. cash oats made to New YORK
exporters late yesterday, the market
started unchanged to as lower, with
September 66N to 81 and December
67h to 67A there being reports of fav-
orable weather conditions over the belt
Provisions showed firm undertone
at the start, with most of the business
being done in lard.
