THE OMAHA DAILY BEE THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. Unusnal Dullness in Wheat and the Pit at Times Deserted. A DROP IN PRICES RECORDED. . Corn Fluctuates Sharply and Lower Prices Caused by Reports of Rain—High Rollers Take a Hand—Quotations, CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. CHICAGO, August 5.—[Special Telegram to the Bex. |—Wheat declined about 1e to-day and corn 1%c. The closing quotations for both were at the bottom. The speculative trade in wheat was very quiet and the rare spoctacle of a completely deserted pit was witnessad several times. The tone of the market was unqualitiedly weak. Cables were disheartening. Liverpool was groaning in anticipation of the agony to be endured in taking and absorbing the holdings of the California clique. New York reports stag- nation in the export business and the sud- den stoppage of foreign orders, though the clearances do not yet show it. ‘The quantiy that Is set afloat on the Atlantic keeps up steadily, amounting for four days to about a million and a quarter bushels. ‘There is also 8 continued free outwarda movement of wheat from this point, Chicago being relatively 40 wuch lower than the seaboara markets that many wno are not regularly in the shipping trade moving property out for the money in slnhl on straddles. September opened at B6lc, ranged 69',@0%%c, and closed at 687gc. October opencd at 703%c, ranged 70}@ile high and 70c low, closing at the inside. 1 cember opened at Télye, ranged T4, @i3}4c resting at the bottom. Most of the light bus- incss transacted was in September and De- cember. Only one or two trades in October, on a basis of 70c¢, were made, and that month really closed a shade higher than the ofticial f fures mako it appear. Cash wheat closed Corn ruled active and irregular.although the volume of business transacted was less than i/utmm or the preceding days of the week. Portions of the the drought-stricken corn country east of Missouri are being visited by refiesliing showers. As yet there have not been general rains where they are most needed, and 1n Kansas, Nebraska and western lowa and Missouri, where there has been the greatest precipita- tion of moisture, the balometer is rising overa large area. There is a great conflict of opinion as to whether the light rains that have rallen and are falling will do any ¢ood. This Is where speculation comes In, “ It was s essentially a weather market to-day as it has been at any time heretofore. Prices fluctuated sharply. There was a lively trade in September, October and May. September nnwd off at 39%c, fluctuatea between 40igc d 8936 @50%5e, and closed at ¢ October upemu at «3,@ ranged 41k@41%c, closing At 40%c. May started in at 43 lluclunteh between 44!y @443,c high, and 43%c low, and closed at - Large 'transactions on the part of “ni rollers” cut quite a figure to-day. ‘There ~was heavy = trading by & number of commission merchants and local operators, and business was far from being one way. Schwartz, Dupee & Co. were bix buyers. Hutchinson bought freely early and sold later. William Dunn was a conspicuous and a steady ller, and others did nearly as much. ~Shippers re- ported an active demand for spoilt stutf for shipment, and lake charters footing up 238,- 000 bushels show that considerable business in that line is passing. ‘Tho foreign ma kets are quoted as spiritless American markets are in a shape to take a &ood deal of property. ‘I'he preponderance ot evidence points to desperate damage to the corn crop already, but the speculative crowd was easily influénced to break prices by the hiberality of their offering, predicated on proving prospects, 'The estimated re- ceipts to-morrow are 250 cars. he market for oats was unsettled to-day, ruling weak and strong by turns and sympa- thizing closely all through with corn. There yas o wenk and twise lower opening for futures, and luter tne market rallied trae- tionally, but the final closings were 3 @‘(u under yesterday’s latest bids, The weakest feature of the market was the large offerings of August, prices at any time being fully le under September, and changes were made at that difference. In the provision trade the features de- veloped were declining in lard, an easier feeling n the pruducl or next winter’s de- I but the eastern livery, and “the opening of specu- lation unex;»evlenlly in September and October pork, Pork for the months named gold to the extent of 3,000 barrels at $10.50, September being regnnled with the greatest favor. For the next winter's fu- tures spoken ot or traded in, pork declined 15@20c and lard and qnun ribs 10c. January pork 8old at $12.45, November lard at $6.5! he venr Iard at $6.471¢, January lard at 86.70 and January short ribs at $6.35. Lard ruled 10@121q¢ lower for near deliveries, September closing at 86, 'i‘lual\.l‘A) after selling at §6.57. @6.67%5. August lard was Ti@10c under and October the same higher than September, CHICAGO LIVE STOOK. Cn1cAGo, August 5.—|Special 1elegram to the Beg.|—CArrLE—Trade was fairly ac- tive, with prime corn-fod steers selling quite a8 strong as yesterday or the day before. C. k.

The Reading party were sald to ve working for control of Cincinnati, Hamil- ton & Dayton, but Mr. Sully denled the ru- mor. St. Paul, Reading, Northwestern and New England were the strongest properties on the list and showed advances of 3{w@1%( per cent. The bears began to grow uneasy, and as long stocks did not come out they commenced to cover, and although slight re- actions from outside prices followed the rally the market remained fairly firm, The only weak spot was Northern Pacitic, The books close to-morrow for six weeks and Johnnes & Durand sold common down 2 and preferred 1% per cent. To-morrow’s deliv- ery does not earry rating power, and there is a sharp contest for control between Drexel & Morgan, the Bravton-lves party, Elijah Smith and the Union Pacific people of Bos: ton.
