Indiana i WHEAT TRADING IS UNSETTLED Numerous: Fluctuations Mark Course of Chicago | Market CHICAGO, Aug. 9.—With re- ports at hand indicating that no frost damage had yet occurred in Canada and that the North Dako- crop’ was escaping any serious arm from black rust, the wheat market averaged lower jn price to- day during the early dealings. The fact, however, that August 10 is a danger date for frost in Canada tended to induce considerable buy- ing and to rally the market from declines. On the other hand, hedg- ing sales here against newly har- vested wheat were cf lberal vol ume. Opening prices, which ranged from %c to %c advance, Septem- ber $1 to 1.29 and December $1.32% to 1.33%, were’ followed by ght gains all around and then by numerous fluctuations mostly below yesterd: finish.
