GRAIN PRICES

(MG-Sets oy f. r. Leland & Company,
212 Union National Bank 23iiding)
CHICAGO, Ill, Aug. 1e.-Wheat a
a steady tone at tie opening, with
prices ranging from Is higher to Il
lower. The market then reflected the
bearish tendency, which has been
prominent of the last few days
new lows were made on September
and May. At this period a fair class
of buying came into evidence, mostly
from houses with eastern connections,
and the market rallied about one cent.
The car shortage is being felt. Local.
cash prices were unchanged. Not
w~ithtsanding the car shortage the
movement of wheat at the present time
seems to be of sufficient volume 10
take care of the demand.
Corn displayed weakness at he
opening and on making new low be-
came congestion, from which point a
substantial rally followed. Maintain
ing the advance throughout the day
and closing at the top prices. Reports
of firing are coming from parts OF In
diana and the forecast is still for dry
weather throughout the southwest.
Oats were weak early n continued
the same throughout the session with
closing prices Il to g lower than the
previous close. For the present oats
seem to follow the line of least resist.
ance than the other grains.
