Aprii-Mav fTKAiN - an d~PFfov3§t6N s - ; r Chlcttgo, Aug. 15.—The scalpers had va riation i-nough !n tthe tone of the market and In the movement of prices In wheat today they gave them sufficient oppor tunity to turn over their profits or losses several times. It wats not a broad mar ket, but there -were times when .^e vol ume of trade was extremely large and other times when absolutely nothing was done. At. the opening the crowd were all playing the bull Bide. Then there was a rush to sell, then a rally with another break, and the market closed weak and fractionally lower than ye?- teivlay’jj q,uotatkV»s. September wheat opened from 56U to 5GV4. ranged between 66S4-and 55=14, closing Via$4 under yesterday at 55=>s. Cash wheat was steady at un changed prices. .Corn—There was a higher curb market on corn before tin* opening today, and a sensationally dull market was generally looked for. Nothing of the kind was seen, although for a few minutes at the begin ning of the session the orders to buy were enormous. The country was leading, but the shorts were keeping well up with it. After the orders In hand at the 3tart had. been executed the hears perceived that they had no Immediate cause for apprehension and wlthdroV from tne buy ing side. From that time until the close there was an Irregular action. May corn openel MU to MU. sold between :.U, and 63%, closing at 53%a=5i, % of a cent higher than yesterday. Cash corn was firm. Prices remelned unchanged. Oats—This market was In touch with com all through the day. There was no news to influence pi Ices, and they were guldcde ntlrely by sympathy. Sejftember oats closed Vi of a cent higher than yes terday. Cash oats were strong; sales averaged % of a cent higher than yes terday. Provisions.—As long as corn held strong there was no doubt In the minds of 'the traders as to the proper course to pursue In products, nor was there when corn declined, as both strength and weakness of the* grain markets were promptly re flected In provisions. The hog harket was strong* at the start, provisions absorbing eomc of the strength. The close was very weak, lard, however, preserving a portion cf Its early firmness. January pork and January* ribs eooh closed 5 cents under yesterday; January laid gained 2%, ss the net result of the day’s trading. CASH QUOTATIONS.

Special Wire to lyonq. & James. Chicago, Aug. I5.r-Wheat firm and higher at the opening. Foreign cables firm. ' New York markets strong and ap parently taking hack some of the wheat it sold here. Offerings, however, were quite liberal, and the demand being some what limited prices gradually eased off. The heavy local receipts, 56.433, as com pared with the-shipments, (J.C36, and the heavy primary arrivals, 1,110,000 bushels, was quite a feature. A full cent decline was experienced before any reaction was felt.' The early buyers were sellers on the break. Later on. the good export takings, 35 loads at New York, a cargo 6f 5.000 bushels No. 3 taken for ship ment to Oswego, and good inquiry from Ogdensburg for feeding purposes. A continuation of yesterday’s strength was displayed at the opening In corn, with prices % to 1 cent higher, principally on the higher cables and the weekly crop summaries,‘which are, much gloomier than expected) by the trade. The vim of last week seems to have disappeared, and the market appears to require eomethlng more than bad crop reports to sustain the present high prices. Pyramid burn ers will find It not so smooth sailing building their castles on 56 cent com as It was when they started around 50 cents. Oats firm and a shade higher, in sym pathy with the early strength in other cereals. Very fair outside trade. Provisions opened firm nt high. point for the day, a slight premium, ovrfr the close last night on higher prices, and for hogs at the yards, and . firm feeling In com. Packers were metferate sellers.
