S o'clock that It was raining very, hard

Immediately after the opening, as prices
then were only slightly better than last

feeling which prevails here and, in fact,
at New Orleans and Liverpool as well.

LAWSON’S GRAIN LETTER.
Special Wire to Lyons^ Su James.
Chicago, Aug. 23.—September wheat
opened at 55&H, sagged off to 54%. revived
on light export demand, two small cargoes
about 50.900 bushels each. No. 2 spring
being worked and prices reached to 55%a
%. The total clearances of wheat and
flour equal to 258,000 bushels, and late
private dispatches from Liverpool says
wheat was firm with an upward tenden
cy, and regardless of the heavy general
rains the prospects of the English wheat
crop is larger than last year, but the
quality Is unsatisfactory. Even thl»k to
gether with other reports of the foreign
crop being very unsatisfactory as to qual
ity, had no, apparent effect upon the mar
ket. which’ sagged off its own weight,
there being an entire absence of sustain
ing Influence. The principal feature for
the last day or two Is the change over
from September to further futures, which
Is having a depressing effect upon the
market' and doubtless will have, until
the first of the month unless a better out
side demand springs up, or a decrease in
receipts, which is not probable as the
spring wheat at primary polns is begin
ning to Increase.
Corn was firm but Inactive, with prices
a shade higher at the start. There was
some selling for outside account by com-
mon houses and although the market held
Arm for a while It gradually cased off-
reports of desolation, in the corn belt by
parties connected with elevator Interests
who. has Just returned from a trip In the
West, had some little effect upon the
market, but It was more than an offset
by the- bearish reports from Kansas and
Nebraska- by Inglls, the crop expert.
Wheat feeding operations undoubtedly are
on the increase. One large Iowa milling
concern sftys they have no flour for ex
port, (he local feeding demand absorbing
the supply of wheat of Jdw grades.
Should this continue on a very extended
scale for any length of time, it would
naturally result in a glut of ctfrn and
naturally have a depressing effect on corn
and a tendency to check the decline in
wheat
Oats opened flrmat a slight advance over
yesterday. The*change over from beptem-
bor to May In this commodity also harl
a rather depressing effect and the mar
ket ruled dull the entire session, very
little interest being manifested.
Provisions—Hog product was Arm. Few
orders Tor speculation purposes caused a
slight advance. Receipts under estimates
at the yards, perhaps the farmers have got
over their fright, and we may see large
receipts of fine wheat and com for hogs
early in the fall.
Lamson Bros. & Co.
Chicago, Aug. 23.—The same difficulties
with the cables today, which gave rise of
complaint Yeoterday, occurred today and
wheat speculation was at a loss ns to
tho best course to pursue. Irregularity
and conflict were the strongest character
istics of the European advices. The mar
ket as a whole was a narrow one, trade
at times being absolutely lifeless. Af
ter the strong opening there were heavy
sales of September wheat, presumably for
Armour, which pressed the market down.
The close was at the Inside figures. De
cember wheat opened from 58% to %, de
clined to 57%a%, closing at 57%, %a%
cents under yesterday. Cash wheat pri
ces were unchanged. The weakness In
wheat overcame the better Influences in
com and brought about a decline from
yesterday’s close of %a% cent. There
was very little new buying during the ses
sion, which tended to destroy confidence.
The pit was given over to the scalpers
most of the day, and even they found
little to 'do at times.
May corn opened at 53% to %, declined
to 52% and closed at 62%, %a% cents under
yesterday. Cash com closed easy, the
early trade was steady, but no particular
change in prices took place.
The price of oats held up amazingly
well In the face of the declines In wheat
and corn. Oats are being bought for
shipment back to the country and . the
dally output at this place continues good.
May oats closed unchanged from yester
day. Cash oats were unchanged, prices
holding Htoady.
Provisions—The strength ot the hog
market at the yards and the light receipts
there exerted a good Influence on prod
ucts today after the early buyers had ob
tained all the stuff they wanted, prices
i-anging somewhat, but Armour began to
buy shortly before the close, his purchases
putting new life Into the market. The
close waa 15 cents higher than yesterday.
For January pork, 7% cents higher for
January lard; and 5a7% cents higher for
January rrbs.

Cleaning
House.
Hard work or easy
work, just as you
qhoose. Ifyoufindit
hard work, it’s because you
won’t use Pearline. You’d
rather waste your time and your
strengtli with that absurd rub
bing and scrubbing. Of course
it’s hard—that’s why Pearline
was invented—that’s why Pearl
ine is a household word. You don’t
know how easy it can be, until you let
j Pearline do the work. Then house-cleaning slips right
dong. It is over before you know it.
