We wbuld again call the attention or
the planter to the importance of gin

ports today from Texas are unfavorable.

days; also considerable damage la likely
to result. Waco reports Sve Inches of

closing Is better than last night. After
opening this morning one lower. Liver
pool cloved one below yesterday. A
bearish feeling sail prevails, but s timid

ton Is reported to be held back to take
advantage of this; The Oergla report for

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Chicago. Aug. 30.—The opinion that short
selling of wheat had been too popular the
post few weeks, obtained In wheat today.
Whether the modest advance scored to-
day was a forerunner of what was to
enme, or whether It was only a natural
rally, remains to be seen, but In any
event shorts are beginning to feel the
necessity for caution. The bull argument
now Is the feeding of wheat; today’s sum.

the states which have been victimized by
the drought, and .which confirmed which

went further and gave a worse condi-
tionl n Nebraska and Kansas than had
been suspected, was the T principle Item of
benefit to com values today. The strength
in wheat was of supplementary impor
tance, however, aiding in the advance.
May corn opened from 52*4 to 62V4; sold
between B2&a52; closing at
higher than yesterday. Cash corn was
strong at higher.
.- 0a i*r In additto b to a sympathetic feel

due to this, although it Is not a general
theory by any mean* Th© opening was

Provislons-The good Influence of a

strength of the option more pronounced
