Special wire to Lyons 6!: James Chicago, Aug. 2.—One strong feeling in corn, change of sentiment and ilrmer for eign advices the market opened strong and higher. Very active, and as corn advanced, buying become general in wheat and with very lltht offerings prlsns were soon run up to the highest point touched since the depression set in; G cents for September. The strength today has not been altogether a matter of sympathy —there has been a good all around trade with some foreign buying here and at the seaboard foreign cables were strong uni higher on the unsettled weather and! but crop damages in the Romania provin ces. Liverpool 1 to 2 cents; ParlB 1 to lVfc cents up. Receipts were decidedly llgher, some 35 to 40 cars under the es timate. Total clearances about 62S/JCO bushels of wheat and flour, while. New York -was reported, strong and higher with good outside orders'to* buy. Smlpers and iloor traders in New York, St. Louis and Chicago have been lighting the ad vance, the past few days. Investors and gpnerol trade, stimulated with the buying fever, were tihe general buyers and so far have the advantage. Corn—the strength Is quite remarkable, though not entirely unexpected. The opening wus active at about yesterday’s closing. Tfteje was an excellent demand and on strength in the cft/bles and- outside markets prices soon advanced 2 to 2M cents. There is still in absence of raJn and thrf price current In the weekly crop summary states that it is impossible to formulate satisfactory conclusions as to th» possibility of the corn crop. Irreparable damage has oc curred to a considerable extent, but still the crop has a chance for exceeding last year’s production. Oats opened firm at about yesterday’s close, and although receipts were quite liberal there was good buying for the country. Nehv York was was also a buyer and at the close prices showed a slight gain of about H cent. We think the grain markets on the whole Is somewhat strange and look for a reac. ttoiv unfavorable to holders before the close of the week. Provisions were quiet, but strong for speculative futures. Pri ces a shade In the holders favor white hogs at the yards were in less demand; prices 5 to 10 cents lower. • Lnmson liros. & Co. Chicago, Aug. 2.—The continued decllno to wheat has eliminated an important obstacle to an advance in the form of large line* of “lont'’ property. The low- price Is a great temptation to investors and at the same time a matter^of appre hension to the bears, when any appear ance of a change of sentiment Is aeon. Today’s rally was partly to be'ascribed, to these phases of the situation, the in centive, however, coming from the corn pit. The forelng markets were higher. September wheat opened 63% to 54; sold between 53%a53; plowing a* 54% bid—%a% higher than yesterday. Cash wheat was 1 cent pei bushel higher than yesterday, under a good demand. Corn—Damage reports and drought were again the topics for gossip and the influ ences for strength in the corn market. September corn opened 47% to 47%; sold between 47% and 43%;* closing at 4n%—1% cent higher than yesterday. Cash ?orn was in good .deman by shippers and local dealers. Prices were lal% cent per'bushel higher. Oats kept time with the oth*r grain markets, the business showing noth ing of importance in its character. The strength was purely a sympathetic one and the close was % cent, higher than yesterday for September. Cash oats wero Btrong and %al cent per bushel higher. Provisions were aided by the 1 strength of whedt and corn, more particularly the latter. ' The decline in live hogs’ value, the product was what sustained thrbygh- out, pork being a little firmer than the othe»r articles. , There was only small trading and no feature was noticeable! The close showed a net gaJn of 12% cents for September pork and of 5a7% cents each for September lard and September ribs. FUTURE QUOTATIONS. BZCXUTtf AMD ^:xi*o ^BouSstsd net receipts... ..

ATWOOD’S COTTON LETTER. Bpecla; wire to Lyons & James. ~* New York, Aug. 2.—Liverpool spot sales yesterday were 15,000, Including 3,<XrJ after hours, and 12,000. today. There Is an appa rent contradiction In the takings of the depressing cable information that come.' from Manchester so continuously. Futdfei Improved there 1164 point. If there h: »ny interruption to the cotton trade be tween China, and Japan and other coun tries. it cet^alnly should aho-w ita£f in tfc* cotton manufacturing district* in Great Britain, but larger spot sales at Liverpool, notwithstanding the declara tion of war In the East, needs explana tion. Then* semis a lack of buying pjwer *n th# market to create a permanent .vt- vaace^ there must be a demand for actual ^tton, and If Llverpml keeps up the hales yesterjlayand today, and there should be any European demand In tills countrj' n check would be given to the dccune In futures, and on tb4s bests .a buUisn senti- *nant might be easily created. Our New Orleans friends wire us that they have today, for the first time. Inquiries France and the continent for August Syptember shipments, and It rmy be «mt European spinners have allowed their *tocks to run so low a point as to force them to buy even with me prerent tro*t Promising crop outlook. Our Fail lUvcr correspondents soys under date of the }!*i ultimo, cloths sold todty at 35. the “west price ever seen here. At the same tim* they say that the outlook tor eottoa ^advance very >>on, and think *e have »«*« the lowest prices. Port rw»lpts to- 3» against !sxt year. Atwood, Violet A Co. WHEAT- Open. IX) nr.
