was very poor during the first hour,
with futures as much as 8 points lower
than due, but rallied somewhat toward
the close, probably on covering before
Sunday, or intentional support to reg
ulate the decline. Spots were 9 points
lower.
Our market declined In the early
trading to 11.26 for October, but, being
Saturday, the disposition was rather to
even up, and covering by shorts rallied
prices to 11.37 for October.
Market prospects for next week de
pend on weather developments and new
crop movement. What is most feared
Is that new crop offerings in the cen
tral and eastern states will come in
competition with Texas offerings, which
are filling the limited demand.

Wheat—No. 2 red 105%@107
Corn 78%
Oats 32%
CHICAGO, Aug. 17.—Advances of %@%c
were made in wheat this morning on
further rains and prospects of a con
tinued delay in the movement. The mar
kets of the old world were higher on
covering by shorts and the strength at
Chicago. There was a disposition on the
part of the holders in this market to take
profits on the bulge.
Corn was up %@%c at the opening,
but this strength soon gave way to weak
ness on the increased offerings and a lack
of buying power.
Oats were %@%c higher early, but
sympathized a little with corn and eased
off a shade.
Provisions were irregular. Hogs were
weak.
The wheat market closed with net
losses of % @% for the day and resting
spots were around the lowest levels
reached. Export bids from abroad were
out of line and the cash transactions at
Chicago were only 90,000 bushels and this
was largely on milling account.
Corn clised with losses of %@% and it
was under some pressure during the lat
ter part of the session.
Oats were %@%c lower.
