CORN LEADS IN
GRAIN STRENGTH
Wheat and Oats Display
Steady Undertone,

BIZ United FindncidI
CHICAGO, Aug. 30-Wheat ex-
hibited a steady undertone, with corn
leading in strength and oats, in SYM
pathy at the close on the Chicago
Board of Trade today.
Trading in wheat was dull and
largely local. Buying was light, as
the result of reports that Greece
would be in the market next week for
SI,250,00O bushels, better cash de-
mand and higher cash prices. Kan
sas City showed the strongest tone,
prices there being &c higher.
Corn took it's strength from contin-
ued light receipts and estimates that
the old crop would be well cleaned up
by Nov. 1. Several crop reports
were unfavorable. Corn from Aber-
deem to RutfeId. S. D., shows the
effects of drought and recent frost.
Trading in oats was dull. Prices
were about unchanged.
Provisions maintained a firm I'M
dertone, due to a better hog market
throughout the country and some in
vestment reports.

SLIGHT DECLINE
NOTED IN HOGS
Some Hogs Are Steady While
Others Drop 10 Cents,

Hog prices suffered another slight
decline in trading at the local stock
yards today, due to heavy receipts to-
falling $4,000, inclusive of Wednes-
days carry-over of 1887 and a slack
ened demand occasioned by the ap-
preaching holiday on Monday. Ship
ping orders were conspicuous by their
absence, leaving the market in the
rands OF local packing interests,
which were unable to absorb the
supply. The top price paid for Sc
leCted lights was 1915, as compared
with 1886 on Wednesday, but sew
eral droves that sold at the top fig-
ure were regarded as steady with
Wednesdays general market price for
this class A loss OF a dime was gem
eral among the medium and heavy
grades, mediums selling generally
around the $3.50 mark and heavies
downward from 1925 according to
weight Light sows suffered sharp
drop. selling downward from 1925,
rough sows moved generally at $7.26
down and pigs at 1925 down.
Despite light receipts of 700, prices
in the cattle market were no stronger
than on Wednesday, though traders
had hoped that the light run might
bolster prices somewhat. The choicest
load of steers received at the yards
this year went unsold Wednesday,
the seller having declined to dispose
of the stock at a concessionary price.
Steers sold generally around the $12
mark and heifers around the $40
mark.
A gain of soc to 81 was recorded
in the calf market, due to light re-
ceipts of 500 and an unusually heavy
demand for choice stuff, which was
conspicuously absent. Best veals sold
at s13 and the bulk from $12 to $3.50.
The sheep and lamb market was
quotably steady, though a few choice
lambs managed to bring s12,5 as
compared with sig on Wednesday.
Sheep sold steady at Sc down. Re
celpts, 700.

Fourth Hour

With their imaginations fired by
the action of Dawson Chemical,
nimble traders combed the general list
in search of stocks whose inside po-
sition resembled Davison's, either be-
cause of limited floating supply or
the presence of an over-crowded bear
following and some degree Of qUietude
reigned in the early part Of the after
noon. However, this quiet was brok-
en- by upswings in specialties that
had an unsettling effect on the general
list as many who had sponsored the
early recovery became apprehensive
lest two swift pace might be set and
profit taking ensued.
Twenty active industrial stocks on
Wednesday averaged 1910, up so per
cent; twenty active rails averaged
1897, up 40 per cent.

Further forward movements took
place in the general list around noon
I. Southern Pacifc's relatively favor
able earnings position brought 1t to
the forefront in the rail upswing
while specialties such as American
Ice and Dupont among the industrials
touched new high ground on the
current recovery. Other issue with
small capitalization, attracted at
-tention. An investigation on the floor
of the Exchange into the Davidson
: Chemical movements disclosed that
it's gyrations had been caused by
perfectly natural market operations.

Wild gyrations in Dawson Chemi-
cal. which ran up to ~ and then
dropped to so. threw a wet blanket
over the market in the first hour.
Evidently the precipitate retreat OF

interests sponsoring its movements,
but when some semblance of order
was restored to the stocks 1uctu-
atoms the general list recovered its

There was always q dozen a.

torches lighted up 8 circle O. light
In q flickerin' way. an one would
have bread knives to SEN with
escalloped blades, another parin'
knives, another silver polish,

fav0rite was the teller who sold
trick whistles and Travelled with
