Wheat-Premiums were firmer. The
market advanced a little with the open
ing of the Winnipeg market. but when
1t was found that their October wheat
was opening about on a par with our
No. l northern cash 1t lost its effect.
The country was reported as only mod
crate sellers. Exporters were almost en-
tlrely out OF the market.
Corn-Trade started narrow and large
ly local. An early appearance of strength
was in sympathy with wheat, but some
what larger receipts and the dull demand
caused prices to ease Off. Good rains
were reported in the west, where 1t is
claimed they were needed. As the SEES
sion advanced the inherent weakness be-
came more apparent. sellers found a poor
market with but little support, and prices
declined sharply with commission house
selling. Rallies are possible, of course.
but meeting fairly good advances with
sales seems safe.
Oats-This market was narrow with
the trades mostly in the way of chang
ing from September to December. Re-
ceipts were fairly liberal and the cash
market had no snap. st responded raed-
lily to weakness in corn. IL receipts keep
up as at present, lower prices seem more
than probab BILE.
Provisions-A little easier hog market
with easiness In grain also made indif-
ferent buyers and prices dragged. but
we should be careful about doing any
selling except on advances.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1S.-There was little
feature to the market previous to the is
suance of the weekly weather report at
noon.
1t was first regarded as extremely I'M
favorable because the first eighteen lines
could hardly describe conditions any
worse.
Then it suddenly changed and said
the crop was making good to excellent
progress In Texas, oklahoma. northern
Arkansas and most OF the Carolinas.
December had jumped to 290fc, but col
lapsed on the contradiction and later on
developed extreme weakness on general
liquidation and lack of support.
The only other news was the improved
Polish situation and another wet weather
map.
1t is suspected that much Of the weak
ness In cotton is due to practically no
demand for spot cotton in the south.
This. coupled with fairly good crop
prospects and lack of bull speculation, Is
driving prices down
NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 1S.-Cotton flu
lures opened steady, &c to IL points hign-
er, and advanced . to 10 points further
on covering orders and reports of ex-
cessive rains in the belt.
Heavy selling later by spot houses and
bearish cables caused a decline of 105 to
rs points under the opening.
The close was easy, 81 to IS points net
lower.

(By Thomson < McKinonn.)
Such action as there was in stocks to-
day was a true reflex of a general con-
fusion of opinion as to what import ex-
listing conditions both at home and
abroad have in relation to the market.
Prices moved irregularly, but not sig
nificantly, and the trade throughout was
not of sufficient volume to furnish a basis
for formulating any intelligent idea on
the course trading will take in the i'm
mediate future.
Nothing definite has as yet come out
of the armistice conference and seem
ingly there was a disposition to attach
more Importance to the outcome of this
meeting than the results of the battle
being waged for the possession Of War
saw.
Less activity in the steel industry is
noted by the Iron Age.
This is ascribed partly to uncertainty
over prices due to the advance in freight
rates, which becomes effective next week,
and partly to further cancellations Of
contract by automobile makers.
Some selling of equipment issues was
prompted by the statement made by this
same trade authority that not much fur
Their business for railroad equipment was
expected by the car builders this year.
