v.im.diso, jug. o. aii overdue
rally came to the irrain markpts in
the late , hour of trading after an
early break that carried prices for
September corn and oats to new
low ievelg. . Wheat made the best
finish, with gains of l$4c, while
corn was lie higher to .Jic lower,
oats 54 c higher, and rye unchanged.
aiauinR was mainiy in evening up
for the week, the support coming
iiujii ouying against weekly bids in
wnicn mere was a profit.
Considering the denressine fae
tors, the light outside support and
the heavy unloading by leading
tongs, me markets gave a good ac
count of themselves during the
week. Wheat showed losses of only
iKc, corn JiJc, oats VAy
rye may2c, Daney 1c, pork 15c,
lard 45fni7Ar nn ! iott (..
tures and unchanged ' for January,
ana snort riDs JSCaic, compared
wim a week asro.
The decline in wheat prices con
tinued to bring in good buying by
exporters, but failed to help the
markets speculatively. There were
sales Ot l.UUU.UUU bushc s for .xnort.
Cash prices generally were weaker
and lower, although premiums here
were tirmer on hard winters. At
Kansas City 548 cars were received
and 230 carried over from Friday
unsold, with 1,000 expected Monday.
iMevaior room mere is scarce and
terminals are said to be blocked.
' Movement Fulling Off.
Aside from the export business and the
wheat figures, there was little In the
market news. The winter wheat move
ment 1 falling off. Chicago had 1.2S7,'Jto
bushels less than the previous woek, or
4,287,000 bushels, while primary receipts
were 17,956,000 bushels. 7.(74,000 buenels
more than last year and 4,241,000 bushels
tens man me previous week.
Prices were the lowest of the week In
th early trading, with September down
to $1.18 and December $1.22, a rally oj
lft'ic from the low point, and the
close hiQfm from the top.
The corn market wan weak early on
soiling, due to the posting as out of con
dition ot 509,000 bushels In South Chioago
Elevator C and annex. There was heavy
buying by local professionals who had
recently made liberal sale and a great
deal of liquidations which carried Sep
tember down to 65 He, with a rally of la
later, while December, after touching 5Go,
rallied lHc, and both months closed
slightly below the top. The week's re
ceipts show a decrease, but a larger busi
ness Is expected.
Oats Price Advance.
Spreaders and changers furnished a
large part of the business In oats. There
was selling ot a large line against pur
chases of eorn by local traders and buy
ing of September and selling of Decem
ber and vice versa, by elevator Interests
and speculators at 3c difference. Th-s
market was oversold on a decline to 3
per cent for September, the loweet of the
season and a covering movement brought
an advance of cf with the close at
nearly the top. The week's movement at
primary points was 9.875,000 bushels
more than last year and about a record.
Aside from a little selling of Septem
ber and buying . of December rye at lc
difference by local elevators and the sell
ing of rye and buying of v.-lieat at 14o
difference by speculators, ttnre was little
In the rye market. Price! inovet up lo
and closed Ho from the top. Ship
ment by lake for the week were 474,000
bushels. and total receipt 462,000
bushels.
Pit Notes.
A number of grain dealers were dis
posed to take a brighter view of the it
bearish at the close
today, while a - few were outspokenly i
bullish. The rally at the close was re
garded es mainly . a covering proposition
and It was said that increased miying
power would be necessary to nom prices
at around the present level. One of. the
largest operators expressed himself as not
bearish, although he has been all week,
and added that he saw nothing on which
to base purchases for a good advance.
The trade, on the whole, was more
evened up at the finish than for a long
time.
. Country offerings of all grnins were
lighter, which was attributed to the de
cline in price. The receipt on Monday
are expected to be large, but not up to
the recent volume.
Corn prices have declined to a level
where some of tbe largest sellers are dis
posed to take profit. Oat values ore
down to a level where the farmer gets
less than 25 rents and are largely a
carrying proposition.
Estimates on the barley crop by E. P.
Bacon company of Chicago, Milwaukee
and Minneapolis show decreases of 4
lo 11 per cent In the acreage, with yields
ranging at 15 to 60 bushels per acre, ex
cept in South Dakota, whera they are
6 35 bushels, or an average of around
20 bushels or 44 per cent less than last
year. In Iowa the loss Is 3 bushel
per acre, as compared with last year.
Grain shipments from Chicago by lake
last woek were 6,464.000 bushels, mostly
wheat and corn. There was 405,000
bushels of rye shipped to Montreal and
16,000 bushels to Buffalo. This grain
was taken In recently on July delivery
and Is bolng exportedd. Total shipments
of all grain Dy lane ana ran were i.
163,000 bushels and receipts. 12,798,000
bushels. There were 7,644 car of all
grains on track here yesterday, as against
11,100 cars on Monday.
Broomhall'i Italian agent has raised
hie estimate on the wheat crop of that
country by 8,000,000 bushels, but the
Spanish crop has been cut down around
20,000,000 bushels, due to disappointing
threshing returns.

Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
New York, Aug. 6. The two
nost interesting movements on the
financial markets today were the
further recovery in sterling, which
carried rates a full cent over Fri
day's closing and 5 cents above the
low level of the close of June, and
the continued strength of the cotton
market, in which the spot price
closed at 13 1-2 cents per pound,
as against the year's low figure of
10 7-8 cents, reached seven weeks
ago. The stock exchange presented
the usual picture of a midsummer
Saturday. Changes in price were
mostly trifling fractions and the
drift of values meaningless.
Market Irregular.
Compared with the closing price of a
week ago, the market shows very Irregu
lar changes. Declines and advances
fairly balance one another and the move
ment as a whole shows no great result
from the attempted resumption of the
"campaign of rumors." There has, how
ever, been evidence enough that the for
ward impetus had slackened, which
usually means that the next movement of
the mraket will depend on the character
of the news. The bond market move
ment for the week, as a whole, was dis
tlnctly upward.
Deposit reported In the weekly state
ment of the associated banks decreased
9t), too.uou, out government aepoaitsnn
creased $112,000,000. The loans haveVin
ereased $45,322,000 and the excess of
loans and Investments over all deposits Is
therefore larger. The excess is now.
however, $543,000,000; at the end of De.
cember it was $877,000,000. The excess of
loans used to be considered a measure
of the strain on credit. Reserve credits
of private banks In the federal reserve.
which decreased $20,800,000 a week ago,
Increased $22,200,000 last week. This is
the usual sequel to a "deficit week;" it
changed a $13,300,000 deficiency In re
serve Into a $19,700,000 surplus.

things for your own protection:
i Study every word
a Consult your lawyer your banker your grain dealer.
3 Ask your lawyer if it does not deprive you of all
CONTROL OF INCOME from yourgrain crops for
five years. '" -
4 Ask if there is any LIMIT to the HANDLING
CHARGES which may be imposed on you by
the pooL
5 Ask if the contract does not BIND YOU ABSO
LUTELY FOR FIVE OR MORE YEARS even if
you find it ruinous the FIRST year.
6 Ask if there is any assurance against heavy loss to you
if the pool foils. The contract protects the pool how
does it protect YOU?
