Chicago, June 30.—A few belated longs and shorts in July wheat kept the trade going In <s. desultory way during the day’s half session. The longs, seeing no Jmine. diate prospect for a fruition of their hope* of an advance, were buying as far’ In the future as possible, after disposing of their July, December being the pre ferred option. Shorts were not so par ticular. and as things have been coming their way with so much regularity, put out the equivalent of what they bought for July in September. December, for the reason mentioned, presented more strength than the near by deliveries. There was no outside business to speak of. The generAl tone was easy. September wheat opened at 69%, ranged from 60*4a*4 to 59%. closing at 5974. a net loss of % of a-cent from yesterday. December closed % of a cent under yesterday. Corn.—The railroad strike acted on corn quite differently from the way It affected wheat. Bo much has been taken from stores of late ahd the opportunities for further shipments by lake taken In the prospective light arrivals from the boy cott, produced a leeling of tlrmness to prices. September corn opened at 41*4. sold between that and 41%. closing a shade better than yesterday at 41%a%. Cash corn was firm. Oats were vllsposed to follow wheat, very little strength appearing at any time. The temper of the crowd is largely bearish, and longs cold freely. September closed % lower than yesterday. Cash lots of oats were quiet, owing to the uncertainty of switching. Provlslons-Were weak at opening, but shorts in pork, becoming a little anxious near the close, covered some, which re versed the tone of that article. The strike In its different phases was a weakening factor, particularly as applied to the stock yurds where .the run, of hogs was ex ceedingly 'small and where the packing Institutions are shutting down by reason of the troubles. At the close September pork was 7V4 centff higher than yesterday, with September lard and ribs each a shade lower. The cash demand was at a standstill. " CASH QUOTATIONS.
