The extraordinary conditions prevailing In the trade, set at. naught the regular Influences, operators .paying no attention to them and mailing no effort to obtain information bearing directly upon the wheat situation. Cables today were all higher, declined to Bo%, closing at 55%aC6, 1*1,111% under yesterday. Cash wheat was steady, prices showing bht little change. ' Corn whs * quite A nervous as TSsfe?* day, out there was d reversdT<Jf the tone and a change In the course or^prlces. The opening was Just as panicky ns any period of yesterday’s scesalon, nnd 1 looked for a moment as if the top wo yet to come. The country, however, was satisfied with TTB profits and large oiocks were offered for Tale on orders from the very districts that have been complaining of the drodgttt. There was no logical reason, beyond a desire to obtain profits, In this action; but It was nevertheless a fact that, despite the unchanged condi tions in tfie weather, and in tact, of a bad state report from Louisiana and pre dictions of continued Hry weathe^. tflere big holder of cosh corn ielt that the fluctuations gave evidence of . the uncer tainty that prevailed. The range was 8% on September corn and 6 cents on May, dnd the close was at a recovery, the for* mer showing a net decline oT cents and the latter 2%. September corn opened from 61%059, sold down to 53, closing at $6%; May sold between 57 and 61, and closed at 53%. Cosh com was In good condition, prices being very Irregular, but generdlly % under September for No. 2. As oats advanced with corn, so, to be conBlftten.t, It declined with that market There was a good trade, but It was with* out feature. The close was % under yes terday for September. Oish oats were ‘ia'i lower than yesterday. Had It not been for the break In corn, a’ different result might have been seen In provisions at the end of the day' trhdlng. The opening was strong, and tluit feeling ruled for a long time. The general weakness soon pervaded the pit, and prices fell away. The close was 7% lower for September pork, 2%a5 cents lower fo£ September lard- and 5 cents lower for September ribs. Very little was done ln the cash market. CASH QUQTATIONH. Flour was slow; prices were steady and unchn nged. No. 2 spring wheat, M%aS7; No. red. 54%. No. 2 corn, 56%. No. 2 Oats, 32>4aS. Pork, 13.20a30. - Lard, 7.25a30. Short rib sides, 6.96a7.06.

The break not entirely unexpected, as this mar ket has advanced 5 to 6 cents within the week without any change in the situation -to warrant It other than sym pathy. Clearances at all the ports. GGfc.OQU*. total primary arrivals somewhat lighter. Toward line latter part of the session the market reacted, some gradually recovering part of the decline. The closing was steady. May corn opened with regular trading at 55 to 5G, firmed up with an occasional sale at 55. There were few regular out side transaction; for Instance, a broker for a large house paid 57 for one 5,000, while other brokers for the same house came evid-nt fr. m th. s: irt that many could not execute orders at 65%. It be- of the largest holders were heavy sellers. The few ouyers were soon supplied, and rapid decline set In, which was bor dering on a panic. Borne stop ordera could not be executed. All the way from % flT 1% within the limit, making It very unfortunate for both Customers and com- missi.-n houses. There was a sharp re act lo.7 on unfavorable weather predictions fivra Washington. Another decline *n “Tng or>V>ra though the market firmed •p towards the -close, recovering about half she early decline. Contrary to yesterday, oats dki not par take of the excitement ln other cereals. There wus a good speculative trade. Of ferings were quite liberal, and orders principally of a selling character. The price at the close showed a lo« of 1% to cents. Receipts fully up to estimate. Total clearances, *22,000 bushels. Provisions firm at opening; trifle excited af times. Sane selling by packers’on tile advance, and although offerings were somewhat limited, prices were 5 to 10 cents lower at the close. Lamson Bros. & Co. NAVAL STORES.
