THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS Oorn the Btrongest Article Traded in On 'Ohange in Ohicago. BAD WEATHER FOR THE BEARS. Prices Show a Marked Improvement ~The Wheat Market Devoid of Sen- sational Features—Increased Activity in Oats. CHICAGO l‘R()DUCF MARKET. CuicAaco, July 10.- ’swclll Telegram to the Bek.|—Corn was the strongest article on the speculative list to-day and August ‘was the strongest as well as the most popu- lar month. [he corn pit was filled to over- flowing and a rattling business was done. Commission merchants and brokers were in command and regular traders who usually , Tun the pit contented themselves with swing- Ing on the train and going with the rest of the excursionists. A close serutiny of the weather map did not result to the satisfac- tion of the bears. Dryness and high tem- perature were the meteorological features of the great western corn belt, and evidence that the crop was in danger it it had not al- ready sustained serious damage. A multi- tude of people returning from trips through Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Ne- braska and Iowa had stories to tell of thé terrible heat and burning corn, ete. Tele- kraphic and mail advices conlirm the narra- tions of the travel and more con- vincing still were the innumerable buy- ing orders from the burnt districts. The execution of country orders occupied the attentlon of a great majority of the com- mission houses most of the session. It was a feature of the day. August was the favor- ite month with the most bullishly inclined traders till late, when that option softened a trifle, closing 3¢ under the best figures of the day, while May remained firm at the top. August opened at 383c, advanced to 35%c, and under the influence of liberal local s} ulative offerings, receded to 3Si{c. A flood of outside buying orders, accompanied by considerable covering by the shorts and buy- ing by sealpers, carried the price to HoXc. During the last half hour the market, thouzh strong, was_rather more quiet, and sellers were ubhued to make concessions, Au,un glosed at 35, a gain on the day of . September opened 30%o, ranged 5e, "l\)lfifdflfl' 1 39Ke and 'W}{c. the last figure ulven being the close. October openea at 30%¢, sold_irregularl 40'¢c and " closed at 39Jgc. May opened at 413¢¢, sold to 42'c and closed there, an im- provement of lc. Wheat opened 4 @%c higher, Improved slightly in analllv “with corn, but worked down “later ‘and closed only a shade higher than yesterday for near-by deliveries. The market was destitute of sensacional features, August opened at 703¢c, advanced to 7lige, sold oft to 70'gc and closed at 705{c. Sep- tember oneue( at Tic, advanced e, decllned to @725c, and closed at 72fzc. October own from 74%¢ to 74'yc and closed n'. 741 he range on December was 77 773(0\ |Ilgl| T7'¢e, low T7l%@773%c at IU close. The forelgn markets were quoted as quiet and steady. In the local cash market & fair degree of activity is noted. There Was more doing in oats to-day and the mnrlmt digplayed ||n'r1'n9m| firmness In ”meml with corn. 1In the way ot speculation trad ing was lnrfialy in August and September, prices showing an improvement of lgc over yesterday’s close. No.2 white again sold rather freely to go to store at 31@i2c, the bulk at 82 cents, Lu the provision markot the feeling was undecided. * * Lard showed considerable strength, but in short ribs there was scem- ingly a withdrawal of the uu‘mon lately wit- neseed and_with freer offerings than were expected. Prices sutfered a severe decline. In the last named article trade was ina measure allowed to stand upon its own bot- tom, and for the alfferent futures the clos- ings were 25¢ under yesterday’s last quota- tions, The day’s decline In lard was only 2!4e. Both lard and short ribs opened strong and at or near the very best prices of the day. For August delivery lard rln:ed at_$6.72)¢@0,75, for September at $0.50@ 6,575, wnd for October al. $8.75(@6. w;; clos- ing at $0.70, #0, and $6.85 bid for the months indicated respectively. In short ribs nll the interest developed was confined to 3ust and September, the former of which sold from $8,15 down to SB.(H Both_fu- tures closed at the lowest prices touched. October short ribs were nomlnuny 15¢ under Sentember. Pork was inactive, cash bein, 810,75, the year at $11.50, and January al . 1n short ribsthe realizing was gen- eral, whilo in lard the principul seller was a house said to be lhe largest holder., CHICAGO LIVE STOCK. CnicAGo, July 10.—(Speclal Telegram to the Brk.|—CArTTLE—The market to-day ‘was heavily supplied and trade was dull and lower.

But it is not ex- that nxch good will come to it until Itlmnn Ohlo deal is definitely set- tled and out of the way. -How soon that will be itis dificult to say. The opening was dull, with rather a heavy undertone on the majority -of properties. London came in weak and 14@% per cent lower. Moderate foreign seliing of Lake Shore, Reading, and St. Paul was without marked effect.

Increased weakness characterized trading and the last sales of a majority of stocks were at Inside fizures.
