other early changes in rails were fractional.
A remarkable demonstration of strength
in rails, more than a score of which broke
thru to new high prices for the year on
gains averaging to 212 points, featured
todays half holiday session of the stock
market. The bullish demonstration threw
a scare into the shorts who hastened to
cover, adding momentum to the upward
swing. Transactions in industrials and spe-
cialties were on more limited basis, but
the strength in rails caused L. S. steel,
common, to move to its highest price of the
year and pushed Baldwin and American Car
and Foundry up to new high records.

pated in the upward movement. Gains of

Chicago, Aug. 9-WHEAT-Wheat prices
here took downward swing today during
the early dealings, the break in the market
at Liverpool and some general selling being
responsible for the decline. Shortly after
the start the September delivery went to
9915c again, the inside figures of the season.
As whole, the market displayed a weak
undertone, coming mainly from shorts. The
opening, which ranged from &c to sc low
er, was followed by a further de- ne all
around.
The close was weak with prices &c to
112c lower, with September 99Ac to 99Ac,
and December $1007s to $1.01.
CORN-Breaking of the drought over
part of the belt eased the corn and oats
market, the former receiving fair support
from shorts after starting &c to &c lower,
the corn market underwent a further set
back.
The weakness in wheat affected corn and
the close showed a net loss of sc to 1c
with September 59kc.

WEEKLY GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, Aug. 19.-Acute depressions of
wheat prices this week extending at times
under $1.00 a bushel has closely followed
breakdown Of the inter allied confer
ence at London Compared with a week
ago, wheat this morning was 2%c to 41kc
lower, corn up Sc to 1ssc, oats off &c to
nc, and provisions varying from 271[c de
cline to advance of 215c. Failure of the
allied premiers to reach any agreement in
regard to financial affairs caught the wheat
market when the domestic industrial out
look appeared undoubtedly uncertain, the
rail strike settlement in particular and buy
ing power seemed to be restricted almsot to
traders who had been on the selling side
of the market and were in a position to
profit. Subsequently with coal mines re-
opening and with railroad troubles less
threatening, the wheat market rallied some
what, buying apparently becoming more
confident.
Drought and heat damaging corn led
afterward to a sharp upturn in the price

tor.
Weather conditions ruled the corn mar
ket. Despite rains and cooler weather SEN
timent remained bullish the extent of act
uaI damage by drought being a question.
Enlarged arrivals eased the oats market
little.
Provisions were governed mostly by
changes in the value of hogs.
