Chicago, Aug. 17.—Most of today's less
to wheat prices came right before the
close, and appeared to be the result of
selllng.lnduced by the early ncwjt rather
than from anything that was receive 1
lattr. There was a very light business,
the unanimous opinion being that this
was the dullest day In all grains in tbb
lost two weeks. September wheat opened
from 64% to 54?, sold between 64%a% and
64, closing at 64%, %a% under yeiterday.
ash wheat was steady early. Later It
ruled easy. Prices were % lower than
yenterday.
i Coru^-Coufldence lr. the ruling high
price* for corn is continually waning.
Long property was coming on tho market
freely all day. 1*wo large commission
hoi-aes that were prominent In buying
when the big bulge was on, wore liquidat
ing today. Some of this corn was as
sumed to belong to>:ountry clients, whilst
the name of a local professional, who
was the central figure In a wheat deal
about two years ago, was also associated
with -v portion of the selling. Tlo: talent
btiame extremely bearish Just before the
c.'ose, and sold liberally, price* going
to the low point of the day on the break.
May corn opened at 64%, sold between
5!%a5£,. closing at the bottom, %a% under
yesterday. Cash corn was %at per bJShei
l^wer.
Cat"—The oats market was dull and de-
vc!d of feature. The Inactivity wan to
pronourced that, notwithstanding the fact
that the wheat and corn markets se.miud
to be directing tho movement of prices,
they did not act fully in acriri with
these grains. September closed % of a
rent irder yesterday. Oish oat4 dosed
weak and % of a cent per bushsi lower.
