CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISION! Featnres of tbe Trading; ond Clesloat Prleea ea Hoard af Trade. CHICAGO. Aug. 11. Business waa quiet again today on tha Board of Trade. Wheat failed to hold an early bulge, September closing taQV,c down. September corn closed a shade higher and oata unchanged. Pro visions were firm, closing 3taul6c up. The main consideration In wheat waa the unvaryingly cheerfull reports from the Canadian northwest, where a bumper crop la being garnered. Shorts covered early on higher cable, and because Europe was said to be taking everything offered. Sep tember rose to 80e under this Influence, but the advance overtaxed the strength of the market and a decline to 894e followed. There was a reaction toward the close on covering by shorts. Tha official statement of shipments from this country lor juiy ahow a gain of 3,600,000 bushels over the corresponding month last year. i . - . I J . . 1 1 a.k..t but trade waa small and tha range of nrlces narrowed although the tone was gen erally firm. September Bold between 66Vi Oata' prices followed the drift of wheat and corn over a narrow range, September selling between i2mio, and closing un obana-Ad. I Provisions were strong. January pork eloaed 15o over yesterday at SW.46; Septem ber lard, IZHo higher, at 80.07H. and Sep tember ribs, 2f5c up at t.WF..2. Closing quotations were as follows: ArtlclesTopen. High. Low. Close.

ENGLISH STRIKE HAS DJTLUXNCE Heavy Selling ef t sited states steel Indicates Some fneaalaesa Over Prpes1 Tariff Revlelea Psettrava NEW TORK, Auk. 19 -No small part of the recovery recorded by the stock market today waa directly traceable to the state ment put out by the Harrlman msasge ment after the close of business yesterday. Judge Lovett s unequivocal denial of any Internal dlesenslon In the Union Pacific or Srobahlllty of a reduction of the existing Ivldend waa accepted on Its face value In most quarters, accompanied a It seema to be by purchases of Harrlman stocks on the part of bankers closely Identified with that system. Of the Union Paclflo episode much of the mystery, Including the origin of the enormous selling of the laat three weeks, remains unsolved There were hints today that the near future might Inject a new and highly Important Interest to that prop ertyan Interest which In bygone days had often oppoeed the plans of the Harrl man faction. But for the fact that the labor situation In England haa become even more aoute It Is quits likely that today's movement might have proceeded farther. Private ad vices to International bankers were In some Instances almost alarming, snd there was a disposition to blame employers rather than the employed. Heavy selling of United State Steel to day Indicated some uneasiness over the proposed tariff revision program at Wash ington. All other shares participated In today's gains to the extent of on to two points, but trading became extremely dull on the decline. Under the lead of union Pacific, which advanced to 1.72n, other leaders also tended sharply upwards tn the final deal ings. There were numerous met gains eg two to three points and the market tone at the close was more sustained than at any previous time of the dav. Some Incidents Included threats of a strike on the Illinois Central road. Fore casts of tomorrow's bank statement pointed to a large cash gain. Ronds were strong, aside from weakness In American Tobacco 4 per cents. Total sales, par value, amounted to 31.(71 000. United States government 2 advanced on call.

Oood firm prices were laid lor bulk, and with th demand fairly active, sellers had little dif ficulty In making a clearance. Th lamba moved at 37 on. a top that wa also quotable limit a week ago, and very good killing ewee changed hands at 3.160. Tn only wethers on sal were "scenery -fed" animal taken out a week ago on a apeculatlv order at 34 .38. They were heavy, but wight i re ceiving better attention from packer, and a 84 66 bid bought them. An ampl outlet ha existed during th week for all kinds of fat stock and som little Improvement In prlcee ha resulted from a healthy demand. Heavy wether and ewe ar closing at moderate advances, while handy sheep and fat yearlings aver age stesdy to strong for the flv day From top to bottom, th present coal of prices for ft aheep and yearling rang all th way from ateady to perhaps a quar ter higher than value in fore at last week close. Classy we resched 33.86 ) s terday and bulk and good quality atuft ha been landing at 3V2t4rV60 llandy yearling touched 84-76 on two or three occadnns, In dicating an extreme quotation of fj.00. and the spread between heavy and handy wethers has narrowed. Fat lamb trade has held an even keel from the start and th market shows no quotable change as compared with a week ago. Some strength developed on Monday, producing a 17.15 top on seventy-two-puund Wyoming, but prices settled bstk Into former notches th following day. Imand on all day ha been actlv and fairly broad. No business of conssquenoe wa trans acted In feeder grades today for th reanon that fresh sorts war very mall, while yeaurday' clearance was complete. Trade has born mending rapidly of late, however, and anything lacking In flesh was ensured of a quick sale. Present price show ad vances of UOV over a week ago, lamba selling from 86.80 downward and feeder she.p moving on much the same baa a killing grdea In many Instance. Feeder yearling brought a much a 34.80 yester day, while feeder ewes have been drawing bids of 13 003 20. Unfinished wethers have been ecaroe, but are wanted around 81-2-Tftf 8 40.
