CHICAGO GRAIN LETTER. Special wire to Lyons & James. Chicago. Aug. 1.—With absolutely noth ing in site In the way of news to hold It up outside of sympathy, the wheat mar ket, although a shade lower at the open ing, was held steady for the part of the session; 'receipts today',690 care, 680 cars being new, wheat was exceptionally Inge, overrunning the estimate 240 cars. Pri mary arrivals again show an excess pver shipments. If this sort of thing contin ues It would be reasonable to expect an Increase of* 8,000,000 to 4,000,000 bushels In the visible supply Monday. Fluctuations were narrow, there was quite a largo trade. Elevator people took an active part artd aeemed to be changing their sales of September against * caAh pur chases into the December option. Later on a weared tone in foreign advices and weakness In outside markets, tho market became apparently heavy, though a good, healthy undertone was noticeable. Of- feringswere exceedingly light and orders came from ell directions to buy principal ly from investors who cannot aee the con- al3tcncy In the low price of wheat, also large speculative orders on reported des truction of the Servian crop and other places In the Dunublan region. Com opened strohg with prices at % to ST cent premium over the close of yesterday and on covering by shorts who had sold on re ported rains Monday and Tuesday, a fur ther advance of 1% cents was scored. There was considerable country buying later, the rains having been considered insufllclent to relieve the drought. Week ly weather bulletin was also very bull ish. The market was strong throughout the entire session, closing at tho highest point of the day. Oats were strong and active, with prices decidedly in the hol ders favor. Provisions was semen hat dull for.speculative futures, prices re-min ing nominal. Hogs at the Varda' was in poor denfcand and prices were 5 to 10 cents lower. Lam son Bros. & Co. Chicago, Aug. 1.—The wheat market was a side issue of aom today. Before the close there was a spurt believed to have been dtrectly due to a report of Russian interference In the Japonese-CMneso dif ficulty, but. Inasmuch ns com was advanc ing quite as rapidly, It was Just as proba ble that the true Inwardness of strength was due to sympathy. Cables were not considered ip the action of trades today, and they were at best of an Indifferent character. Wheat opened from 6SV» to WA. sold between'53 and fi 64 cloelng at 63% and53*4, %s% higher than yesterday.' No particular change in prices for. <mMi wheat was recorded. Com was today as it has been for some time past, the leading speculative article on the board of trade tlcor. All the strength in that grain Is due dlr.vtly to the dry weather throughout the West and any appearance of weakness generally coroeS from rain* or showers, And pects for them. The record of toaay’a trading Is but a repetition, of any dry in the -Immediate past. Today fair tveath- er was predicted for Minnesota,. D^kota^ Nebraska and Iowa. From the moment the r forecast became generally known, until the close, prices held Intensely strong, the cloeo being at almost the outride figures for the day. September oorrt opefted 46%, sold up to dosing at 47%, a tiet gain of 2%a% for the day. Cash corn was very strong. Sales were made on an average of 1 cent over yes terday. Oats were*',up andi down with corn, prin cipally up.' Nothing attaching to the trade was of Interest, and the business was comparatively light. The action was purely a reflection of corn’s movements. September cbm closed % of a cent higher than yesterday. Cash oats- were without a noteworthy change. The market was steady. , Provisions were narrow, dull and feat ureless. Pork was a little stronger than either lard or riba, on account of a scarc ity of offerings. Very little business was transacted, failure to decline being due to a little strength In live hogs at tne opening of that market, at the yard* and to the further advance in com. Septem ber pork closed 12% cents higher than yesterday. No change was made In the quotations for September lard and ribs. FUTURE QUOTATIONS. WHEAT— Open. High. low. CTos.
