CHICAGO , Aug. 21. The bears lind nn-
other Inning In wheat todny. The Septem
ber option nt one time sold So below yester
day's high point. December bent this by u
cent und n ciuarter. The closing figures
how n loss for the day of 514c In September
and a'.ic ' In December. Heavy anil long con
tinued liquidation was the cause of the
brenk. The weakness In foreign markets
and the break Ir the coarser grains were
factors. The bull clique threw over their
holdings In corn and oats and declines of
2c In corn nnd ' ,4ftc I" ° "tH resulted.
Provisions also suffered , pork dec Inlng 17',4c '
find lard 7',4c. ' Hlbs closed practically un
changed.
Wheat on the curb before the regular
opening started with some show of strength
and with no slgni * of the excitement wh.ch
ruled Liter on the board. Opening nn.l . second
end cables from Liverpool were rather en
couraging to the hulls , 1:30 : p. m. advices from
that market which were received beforu
tne op nlng showing only IfllVid decline.
On this account curb prices were about lie
higher than yesterday's close. On the regu
lar -esslon prices were very Irregular at
the otnrt and It teen became clear that
numbcre of people rtlll had long wheat In
their possession , winch they were then con-
vlnceu they ought to hnvoold the day be
fore. September was bringing from Doc to
M'AC simultaneously In dllft-rent parts of
the pit and December from M'Ac to tij'.Sc ,
vesterday's closing price * being % c and
fottc , respectively. The relative positions
of the two lending options were quickly re-
vcrrcil , for In H few minutes September was
bringing BSc when December was still drag-
King neg'ectfcdly around Ki',6c. The unexcep
tional strength of September was due to tne
taut that very few were desirous of iradlng
In It , and It was easy to advance It by bid
ding for what no one wanted to sell. Hut
In about half an hour nil support was with
drawn , and the market began to sink , slowly
nt first , but ns the liquidation grew heavier ,
the bottom s > cmcd to fall out , nnd not until
September touched U4'ic nnd December 92c
was there a flop In the mad ru h. The lull
was only tampornry , however. Selling soon
became gi-ner.il again and stop loss orders
were reached. The price did not reach the
bottom of Its severe sinking spell until
September wafl down to 9Hic , anil December
! HV4e. ) The trade by that time had become
very narrow and the traders tired with their
previous efforts nnd Indisposed to buy or
well except when tempted by nn exceptional
offer or tntlclngly high bid. The Increase
In weakness ns the session advanced was
caused by a further break ut Liverpool ,
mnklng the day's decline from 4'Ad ' to 4Vfcd
per cental , and an equivalent decline at
1'nrls , although private advices from Paris ?
received earlier had claimed an advance.
The I'arls decline was 1 franc for August
nnd f,0 centime. * for November-February , or
t'/ic per bushe' for the one and 2Te ( , per
bushel for the other. Antwerp also sent
lower quotations , but wns not fo radically
weak us the others. The Chicago receipts
were US I cars , only 29 of them contracted ,
nnd f.3,000 bushels were Inspected out of
store. Minneapolis nnd Du'uth received 234
cars against 631 a year ago. The Atlantic
jiort clearances were equal In wheat anil
Hour to 432,000 bushels. Before the close
September had sold us low us Die and Do
t-ember to StOic. Closing prices were :
September , lll-ie and December , 90'4c.
The beginning of the end In the corn
flfnl was apparently well on Its way today.
Vnloadlng was started nt the opening.
Kvcry one who had long corn appeared
anxious to sell , and It was currently re
ported that the bull crowd threw over al-
moat their entire holdings. September
opened at from 30'/c to SOo , n decline of
iAim ' / c to Ic per bu. , and before the
price reached bottom for the day It sold
down lo 28Uc. The closing trades were ut
I'S'jie. December started at from 33c for
one Or two dives down to S" c. It went
ns low as SOc and closed nt 20'i" . Heavy
receipts , 1,707 cars , nnd more favorable
weather helped materially In Increasing
the selling fever.
The business In oats wns extremely
heavy and prices at one time showed a
I'.ic decline. Selling was liberal , especially
by the long holders. Elevator people also
Hold heavily. September opened from V4c
to % c lower nt from 18c to IS c , sold to
MUiC. dropped back to 18c , nnd rested nt
lfic bid. Hrndstrect'H report of the vis
ible supply showed nn Increase of 2,531,000
liu. , which , with a small Increase In the
Blocks of contract grain , was counted In
with the bear features. Receipts were 715
car * .
Considering the weakness of the grain
ihnrkets , provisions might be called firm.
Prices showed a small opening decline ,
< lue to lower yard quotations. The market
was given fairly good support and advances
ensued , but the sharp declines In wheat
mil corn ultimately had their effect on
provisions. Armour was a good buyer of
lard. At the close September porfc was
1714C lower at JS.40 ; September lardt.c
lower at J4.57V4. and September ribs un
changed at $5.27 ! .
Kstlmatod receipts for Wednesday :
Wheat , 210 cars ; corn , 1,030 cars ; oats , 010

CATTLE There were only ninety-two
cars , 2,403 cattle , today , as against 3.313 a
week ago , the two days' shortage amount-
Ins to 2,500 cattle , as compared with last
week. Tile range furnished nearly all of the
supply , with feeders predominating .urgely ,
hut there were a few very good cattle
among the natives' .
Goad beeves were strong and In active re-
nucst because of their scarcity , with the
best here selling up to $1.95 , but below
medium grades sellers called the market
rather weak nnd slow , although everything
at all useful was cleaned up In good s > eason.
Thp ki'lers got n ) lmv westerns around $4.(0
W4.20. but the feeders were after the grafs-
ers and got the big bulk of all that were on
sale. i
it only took a short' time to clean up the
live or six liads of cows ? nnd heifers on
the market and fully steady price ? orevalled
for all grades. Hulls were txarrp. with the
demand good , and vecls were free se'lcr ? .
There was ju t ns vJjoroun a Demand as
ever for stockers and feeders and the lioural
supply seemed to have no bad effect on
prices , the market being generally called
llrm. nnd a large lamount of business done.
