Oir ad vices from the South are of heavy rains at S?lma 5Vi Inches yesterday, and later t telegram was received this evening at S o'clock that It was raining very, hard there again today. Brenham, Texas, Co lumbus and Montgomery also report heavy rains. At Little Rock the weather 1* cloudy and there are indlcatldns of tain. This and similar Information re ceived by others caused an Improvement Immediately after the opening, as prices then were only slightly better than last bight, owing to the continuous bearish feeling which prevails here and, in fact, at New Orleans and Liverpool as well. Houston received today 2.900 bales of near Cotton. Brenham received 500. New Or leans receipts of new cotton so far, MW *»• tV» last year.

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. FUTURE QUOTATIONS.
