CHICAGO GRAIN
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated PreSS.
CHICAGO, August 2S.-A sensa-
tional break of 4 cents bushel, the
daily permissible limit, in September
corn just before the market closed to-
day caused sharp reaction in other
corn deliveries and in wheat.
The sudden drop put September
corn at sl0612 a bushel, lowest price
since early in the month and - cent
below the nine-year peak established
last week.
Other corn deliveries lost about :
cents, while wheat broke more than
3 cents.
The weakness in corn was ascribed
partly to private estimates in some
quarters that recent rains had bene-
flied late corn. Profit taking was
heavy.
Corn closed ASA cents lower, COM
pared with yesterdays finish, Septem-
Der, 1867; December, 92s-%, and
wheat was 2la-3la down. September,
1.o81a-s4; December, 1.0734-7s. Oats
lost 7s-1A; rye, 2as-2a4; barley. to
3 cents and provisions, IL to % cents.
