CHICAGO , Aug. 8. After a fight at the
opening today to buy corn there followed In
short order an equally urgent and much
more general struggle to sell. No ordinary
concessions on the break could Induce buy
ers to como forward. September broke S'&c
per bushel before a demand sufficient to
arrest the decline developed Itself. The net
decline at the close since yesterday was
limited to 3-ic. May lost 2' ' c OB the result
of the day's trading. Wheat followed corn
nnd closed weak at I'/fcc below yesterday's
latest quotation * Provisions and oats acted
In sympathy with corn and wheat.
Wheat was active and unsettled , wllh fluctu
ations within a range of from 2V c to 2c.
The opening was from ' /fcc to ? Jc higher at
574c for September , but Immediately
Weakened and prices , with some fluctuations ,
declined 2c , then rallied le , again cafed
off , declined from % c toic and closed with
September at Me. The early advance and
higher opening was due to the continuation
of previous weather conditions namely , dry ,
hot weather nnd higher cables , but the heavy
selling pressure In corn Influenced free sell
ing In wheat and under liberal offerings and
a general disposition to realize a reaction"
followed. There were no reports of rain In
the corn belt. The market , like that for
several days past , wns Influenced by the
corn market , There wns very good country
buying reported today , which prevented a
further decline. Shorts also bought modor-
ntcly at the decline. There were very good
export clearances , aggregating lft.1,000 bushels
of wheat and flour , of which 104,000 bushels
was of flour. Weather In England was re
ported showery. Cables were higher , the
closing at Liverpool being at from % d to
IVfcd higher and London cargoes firm , ller-
lln about H&d higher. Paris flour from 25
centimes to 75 centimes higher nnd wheat
nt from 1 centime to 1 % centimes per bushel
higher. Antwerp was unchanged.
Corn wns again active and excited , with
the fluctuations the wildest and most sudden
in years. Prices covered a Co to 8c range.
The feeling was nervous and feverish all
day and all kinds of prices prevailed at 'the
same'moment In different parts of the crowd.
The opening was the scene of the wildest
confusion nnd first trades were anywhere
from V4c under to 2c over the final figures
of yesterday , with September at GIVic , and
Boon sold down V4c from the previous low
figures , rallied % c , then from % c to l c ,
rallfod from Vic to % c , declined 2c and 3c ,
ruling Irregular , and closed at 55)4c : ) for Sep
tember. There was heavy realizing from the
start , but the demand was also brisk and
during the first half hour the market held
fairly steady. There were all kinds of orders
In the market early , but they were soon
filled at various prices. Later on the buying
fever died out some and the selling Increased ,
some of the largest commission houses selling
freely , a report being1 circulated that Iowa
Avas selling liberally and ono concern was
credited with disposing of 500,000 bu. from
that state , which started local longs to real
izing , and prizes declined suddenly , with
from le to 2c difference between traders , until
nn 8'/4c decline had taken place In Septem
ber nnd 3o break In May. The sudden reac
tion caught countless numbers of stop loss
orders , the executing : of which only tended
to Increase the panicky feeling and depress
the market. At the decline fresh buying was
enthused Into the market and values again
turned up , advancing with little reaction 94c
for Mny and 60 for September. As was the
case yesterday , the Interest all centered In
September and May ; October and December
were also traded In freely and sustained ups
and downs with the course of the leading
deliveries. There was a perfect deluge of
selling orders In the market , commission
houses and brokers all endeavoring to dispose
of long corn when the early break started ,
which was not checked until 51c was touched
for May and 53c for September. There was
no rain In the corn belt nnd advices from
the wtst were about as bullish as heretofore.
The Washington forecast was not very en
couraging , Indicating no rain In the west ,
but cooler temperatures. The market today
was not governed by ordinary Influences ,
they cutting but little figure. It was simply
n matter of selling orders exceeding the buy-
Jnc at different times and vice versa. It
Vras nearly noon before the market had
quieted down to any noticeable extent and
even then the market was very nervous and
' unsullied.
ft' Oats wcro active and unsettled.
The market followed corn In Its fluctuations.
The range for September was 2c.
Provisions were unsettled , Influenced by
the wild fluctuations of corn. Compared
with last night , September pork Is 7 ,4c
lower , September lard 2V4c lower and Sep
tember ribs 5c lower.
Frelehts slow at % e for wheat and
corn and % c for oats to Buffalo , and 2'&c
for wheat to Kingston.

.Speculation on 'Clniiisa WHS Alnrkotl l > y In-
crciisod Activity.
NEW YORK , Aug. 7. Speculation on the
Stock exchange today was marked by In
creased activity and the movement of prices
resulted In the establishment of a higher
range of sales In almost every stock traded
In , the only notable exception In the active
list being Sugar and In the Inactive shares ,
Ohio Southern. These two stocks were af
fected by special causes. Sugar was In
fluenced by the view which respective- oper
ators took of the failure of yesterday's cau
cus of democratic members of the liouso to
take nny action recardlne the tariff bill.
Ono section of the speculative community
regarded this as meaning that the senate
sugar schedule would have to bo chanced
and sold the shares of the trust. Another
party took It to Indicate that a disagree
ment was assured and bought on a continu
ance of the McKlnley tariff. The sellers
were , however , more numerous " than the
buyers , for there was n "very general feeling
or disappointment among the Sugar operators
that the caucus would Instruct the conferees
to agree , or at least suggest a compromise on
the senate amendments. * A good deal of
stock was offered for sale at the opening ,
which put the prices down 1 % to 6 % per
cent , but the shares were readily absorbed ,
causing a fractional rally. This caused a
renewal of the selling and figures took an
other downward turn , touching 101 % , the
low point of the day. This was about 1
o'clock und shortly after that Sugar was
bought freely , rallying to lOfl'/i , with a llnol
reaction of ' , 'j per cent , making a decline
on the day of 1 % per cent , the preferred
losing ? i per cent. Of the grangers , Uur-
llngton & Qulncy entered most largely Into
the trading. It was attacked at the open
ing on reports that the government corn
crop report would show corn to bo In a bad
way und was cold down I'.J per cent to 70 ,
The stock was well supported at the lower
figures and becoming somewhat scarcer In
the loan market the shorts thought best to
cover. Their purchases caused a brisk ad
vance of 1 % per cent , from which there
was only a reaction of % per cent at the
close. St. Paul opened ' /i per cent lower ,
mainly on small selling for the London ac
count. During the rest of the- day the stock
steadily appreciated , closing at the best
figures touched and T4 per cent above yes
terday's final figures. The preferred gained
U pnr cent. Uock Island reacted V4 per
cent In the early dealings , recovered the loss
before midday and nuilo a further gain of
ft per cent In the afternoon , closing U per
cent below the highest recorded , an advance
of K per cent on email transactions. The
Lead locks , on reports of Improved business
prospects , made a gain of % per cent on
common and 1H per cent on preferred ,
which wu also In good damand , uwklug a
net Improvement of H per cent. Tha markei
closed strong. The bond mnrkct wns slronf
all day.
The Evening Post's London cablegram
sny : The Improvement In stocks continues. .
Purchases nre mainly confined to gllt-edgei ]
stocks , but the Improvement li spreading ( c
second nnd third class securities. Americans
were strong , closing at about the best. II
Now York supports this markei the dispo
sition hero will bo to buy and August will
probably bo a tnoro active month than wns
anticipated. It Is believed that heavy ship
ments of gold from America to Europe are
near an end. The trade returns for July
wcro disappointing , but were mainly due to
decreased values and the delay over the
American tariff "bill. Silver Is strong. The
India council sold forty-two lahks today at
rates ranging up to 13d.

CATTLE Among today's receipts of cat
tle there were some very desirable dressed
beef steers. There wns a very talr demand
for the most desirable , and the market on
such was qnito active. The more common
grades were slow pale , no one appearing to
want them. Prices were about steady with
yesterday , there being no material cluingc.
There was no change of Importance In the
cow market. Desirable stock was wanted
at fully steady prices. Undesirable stuff
was slow and dull , which hns been the rule
for some days past. The market on stackers
and feeders was very dull , the demand being
light , while supplies were quite liberal.
Prices arc way down. Representative sales :

HOGS The market opened with a very
fair demand , both from shippers and local
packers , for good to choice heavy and
butcher weight hogs. On such the market
was about lOc higher , prices ranging from
$4.90 to $5.15. The demand for the light
and common mixed loads was very poor and
the market on that class of hogs was only
about steady at the opening. As the day
advanced the market flattened out badly on
tlie common and trashy stuff and at the close
there were BO to GO loads still unsold. The
bulk of the hogs sold wont at $4.70 to $5 , as
against $4.75 to $1.80 yesterday. Represen
tative sales :
SHBBl1 The demand Is very light and
there Is practically no market. Fair to good
natives are quotable at $2.25 to $2.75 , fair
to good westerns at $2.00 to $2.40 , common
and stock sheep at $1,75 to $3.25 , good to -
Choice 40 to 100-lb lambs at $2.25 to $3.CO ,
