CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-THE wheat market
was colorless affair and trade was smaller
in volume than for months. During the
morning session prices were easier, but there
was enough support to keep prices on 81
seat. Prices were more critical. The rau
strike situation tended to induce. little
local buying at the start. Lafef t,e weak
ness in Winnipeg caused these buyers to
unload. About midday there was some buy
ing credited to the account Of leading
local short, and cash houses bought Septem
Der and sold December transferring hedges.
Local shippers reported sales Of Wheat to
exporters at "a cent better premium than
yesterday. Kansas City reported no export
bids whatever, and dizziness was the only
feature in the ex- trade at the seaboard
cash market. The Canadian wheat crop is
officially estimated at $50, 200 900 bushels
over last year. Foreign exchange was firm
er. Cables showed no change. Minneapolis
cash premiums were 2 to 8 cents lower and
Winnipeg cents lower. a-.
Dizziness also was the principal feature of
the corn trade. September held fairly steady
on buying by Armour, but there was little
pressure on the deferred months. Cash de"
mand for corn c. /. f.. Buffalo was good.

reports are generally favorable. Receipts
are of moderate volume,
Oats appeared to be friendless and new
points or the crop were again established

''Dost thou renounce the devil and

Ten minutes later he heard the
news that his plea for clemency had
been refused by the prison commits
