wa weasShnd strong by turns today, but
the final quoi'Jlons left prices easy, and
for SepteinberliC lower. Corn was down
c. Oats were off c. Provision were
&e'2Sa lower.
The wheat market opened weak, because
of heavy, selling by commlsaion houses,
which was based upon lower cables and
the large accumulation In this city of con
tract grain. Elevator Interest made an
especial point of pounding the September
option. Later the market rallied on re
ports that the Canadian northwest had
experienced another frost and . statements
that the Russian wheat crop was dis
tinctly disappointing. After hardening
somewhat on these reports the market
eased off on statements that the export
demand had ceased and then rallied again
on the denial of this report. The market
found support on all sharp declines and the
bears sold readily on every bulge. During
the latter part of the day the market was
a seesaw affair, the range, however, being
narrow. . The close wss easv. September

same day last year.- Minneapolis, Duluth
and Chicago reported receipts of 298 cars,
against 261 cars last week and IX cars a
year ago.
The corn market today opened weak on
general selling by commission houses. The
same Interest that sold heavily at the out
set bought on the decline and prices rallied
sharply.- The greater part of the earlv
loss was recovered, but the market closed
easy ana e lower. The otTerlnfrs from
Nebraska were, Increased today because of
the heavy rains In that state during the
last twenty-four hours. September opened

101 ears, with 87 cars of contract grade.
Trado In oats was dull and the market
followed the trend of wheat and oats.
Cash oat were lifrlc lower, and there wa
less demand than for several days. Fair
speculative buying was made on the de
cline. September opened irc lower, at
5O0oftc, sold between 48fI6oHo and closed
at 50c. Local receits were M cars.
Packers sold January provisions In fair
amount throughout the day. and this, to

CATTLE The receipt of cattl were lib
eral again thl morning, receipt holding up
very well with last wk and with a year
ago. Th market as a whole did not show
very muoh ohang in any direction, but re
mained in very , much the' same condition
as yesterday. '
There was a fair showing of beef steers
and the trade was In a very decent con
dition, although rather slow. The prices
paid looked In most esses about like yes
terday and sellers as a rule were quoting
their sales as steady. At ti e same time
there was a feeling of uncertainty and it
was one of those markets that are difficult
to report.
What has been said regarding the steer
market would apply In large degree to the
trade In cows and heifers. Prices gen
erally looked about steady with yesterday
and there was a fair demand.
Oood feeders commanded steady price
and the feeling, if anything, was better.
The rain which fell last night and which
continued today was reported a general
over a wide section of the country and
will doubtless have a tendency to en
courage feeder buying on the part of the
country. This expectation naturally cre
ated a better feeling on the feeder market
today.

HOGs-Hogs were unevenly lower, every
one would agre to that proposition, bt
when It earn ta saying Just how much
lower there was a wide dlfferene of opin
ion. In fact It wa hard work to find two
people of exactly the same opinion. The
market waa so uneven that It depended
rood deal upon where the hogs were, how
uyer happened to look at them and what
weights and quality. There was also quite
a difference In th market between the two
divisions of the yards. For these reasons
there waa a wide difference of opinion be.
tween salesmen, as noted sbove. Some were
figuring their ssles s steady to V shade
lower, others as fully 6c lower and some
were quoting the market ss even worse
thsn 6c lower. As a rule buyers were fig
uring the market right at 5c lower thsn
yesterdsy.
In examining the sales shipper shnnld
bear In mind thst there Is at the nresent
time a great difference In the quality of
the hogs coming. Thus there are load
weighing 800 pounds of ss Arte shipping
boss as nr one could ssk to e while
there are other losds of the same welrhts
made up of oM rough packing sows. This
of itself wot i id make quite a difference tn
the ran re of sale.

SHEEP Receipt of sheep thl morning
were again very liberal, making the re
ceipt tor the week to date more than
double what they were for the amc day
last week and very much larger than the
corresponding period of a year ago. In
plto of the large run, the market has been
In a very satisfactory condition. To be
sure prices hav eased off a little but no
more than wa expected In view of the fact
that the market wa already so high
w top neavy.
Thl morning, although there was another
large run of aheep, the market wa tlll
In good condition. Unfortunately th rain
which fell during the greater part of the
night caused a good share of the receipts
to arrive wet. This always hss a weaken
ing effect upon the market. Buyers always
figure or. taking off enough on th price to
mak up for th Increase of weight caused
by th wet fleece.. The result was that
while sales In some cases showed a loss of
ss much a 10c on their face, the market
In reality waa very little different. In fact
It was steady In more cases than It was
lower. The worst that could be said of it
would be to quote It a having any easier
tendency.
There wa no shortage In th attend
ance of feeder buyer, the barn, as has
been the case all this week, being full of
men looking for feeder sheep or lambs.
The liberal buying on the part of feeder
buyers helped very materially to maintain
th market and th trade a a whole, as
noted above, wa In a fairly satisfactory
condition, with price on an average very
little different from yesterday after taking
Into account the wet fleece.

during tit period of diH'iinlng prices Which

advance was helped on by another element
amongst the professionals, which sought
to prollt out of the necessities of their lei
low traders who were short. The market
was. In that sense, narrow and professional,
and It was nut a commonly held opinion
that there waa any large amount of buying
of stocks by large Inventor or by specu
lators of the class which mskes the tone of
markets. Nevertheless, the movement wa
regarded aa strung evidence ot a better
ment In financial sentiment. Not o much
th volume and the character of the buy
ing aa the significant subsidence of the sell
ing was considered. Wltliout any notaols
event to mark a change tn conditions th
professional traders, whose occupation It I
to feel the pulse, of, th market and to
ascertain It lines of lesst resistance, find
that prices no longer yield easily or with
out some commensurate demand at reces
sions. Considerable advance In btda are
requisite to secur heeded supply by th
uncovered shorts, witnessed In today
advances, but there I- no wide agreement
to the extent Of the (till uncovered
short Interest and the corresponding fur
ther advance In' prices which their de
mands may cause, but there Is vpy general
agreement In the conulctlon thaljVny sub
