TODAY'S CHICAGO PRICES.
CHICAGO, Ill, August 29.-Further
liquidation was on in grain futures
at the outset today and wheat took
a downward slant, the September
delivery going below the dollar
mark. Offerings, however, were met
with an improved demand. Hope of
more favorable settlement between
France and Germany served to give
the market an easy undertone
Liverpool quotations were lower,
but weakness there had little infiu-
ence on this side of the Atlantic as
the break abroad was attributed to
yesterdays decline in our market
Light rains were reported overnight
throughout the grain belt which
served to decrease bullish sentiment.
The growing wheat crop in Argen-
tine was reported to have been fur
ther benefited by additional rains also.
Opening prices. which were Is to Il
cent lower. with December 104Ia to
104A and May 110A to 110k, were
followed by further decline on all
deliveries and then a slight recovery
Corn and oats were affected by the
action Of wheat After starting un-
changed to Is cent off, with Decem-
ber Sc. the corn market hoyered
around the initial range and then ex-
perienced a slight general advance.
oats opened unchanged to % cent
down, with December 3S7s to 80, and
later declined little more.
