CHICAGO , Aug 3 The Influence of Inrge
primary rocclpta and lack of foreign do-
iratid proved mightier than the rojxirts of

struck a snag at thu beginning of trading
In the shape of lower quotations from Liv

stantial rally > o8tctday , at least no weak

The absence of foreign demand for Amerl.
can wheat was again noticeable , but after
the first belling movement had ceased this
uan lost sight of In thu continued reports
of domestic crop d image , which wcru so
fceHDUs ni to c.iuso the market to rally to
jeiterdaj's closing price. The damage vvus
reported as being particularly heavy In the
lied Hlvor valley and estimate * placed the
total area affected us high us 15o C JU nirui ,
with probably Jl.uOUWO worth of growing
grain destroyed. Later cables howcd some
rally in foreign markets and this also en
couraged buying. Northwest receipts weio
moderate , Minneapolis and Diiluth reportIng -
Ing arrivals of "i."J cars , against 3V2 cars last
v\eck and 77 cars a year aso , Chicago re
ceipts were 91 ears , 10 of contract grade.
The total of primary receipts , however , was
large , G53.000 bll. , compared with 375,000 bu
a year ago Uxport clearances from Atlan
tic ports were large , 705,000 bu. Previous to
this announcement the market reacted from
70c , which point was reached shortly after
the opening , to ( W'/i-iJO'-ic ' , but the liberal
clearances caused a moderate covering
movement which a KM In sent the price up to
about GSiC. There were many minor rallies
and reactlono , but during the afternoon the
annrket gradually tended downward , The
Hcaboard reported little foreign demand
and this , coupled with the continued largo
primary receipts , apparently had a good
< leal of Inlluenco on longs , for conslderible

Icct was quilt/ weak toward the close , Sep

nffected corn and most of the advance was
lost , but the market closed steadv. Ue-

from 30c to 31o nnd closed a th.ule higher
nt 30'4c. Receivers were the principal
sellers.
TJio market for oits was dull nnd unin

entirely by other grains nnd the range of
prices was narro'v. Changing from Sep
tember to May was a feature. May weak
ening sllght'lv ' under the selling , while Sep-
Umber and December were a shade higher.
The country was a fair seller. Shippers
"were " buyers. Receipts were 427 cars Sep-
itombor ranged from ISViiiM to IS'&e and
closed a shade higher nt laygftWic.
The Improved jellow feve-r situation
caused a better feeling In provisions nnd
the market was strong and fairly active

CATTLn The proportion of native cattle
was the smallest and the proportion of w est-
erns the largest that It has been so far this
year. Only a few cornfed cattle were offered ,
as will be noted from the sales 'below. ' The
market on dry lot cattle vvat > good and
steady nnd active and practically everj-
thlng that would answer to that description
changed hands at an early hour In the
nornlng.
Western beef cattle were In liberal sup
ply , there being several quite sizable strings
In the ynrda It was a little late before
the cattle were ready to show , but buyers
seamed to want them. However , when the
market opened It was rather slow and in
Bomo casts , at least , sellers were calling It
lower. The Swan cattle brought the same
price as last week , $4 65 for the best , but
the quaHty was a little better today. The
Texas cattle sold way lower tod.iy , but
they were not as good ae they were yester
day. In regard to Texas cattle buyers claim
that they nave been pajlrg too much for
that kind of cattle at this point and that
they are landing cattle here , from Kansas
City way cheaper than the cattle have been
costing them In these jards.
The supply of cows nnd heifers was the
largest that It has been In a long time and
consisted almost entirely of westerns. The
trade was fairly active on that kind of stuff
and prices steady. The prices paid for the
westerns generally looked high and were
entirely satisfactory to owners. Bulls , stags ,
etc , sold In about the same notches as
jestordoy. Some nretty good veal calves
are selling at JO , the market easing off on
veils
Bujers of etockers and feeders were out
early looking for the cattle and the market
on that kind of stock was active nnd llrm.
Speculators were tTie principal bujurs nnd
it did not take them very long to pick up
the bulk of the offerings. The feeling on
that class of cattle Is strong owing to the
most flattering crop reports received from
the country , which are Interpreted to mean
that there will bo a large buying demand
for feeders nnd stock cattle a little later on.
