THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. A Wheat Scalper's Remark CGoes Echoing Down th® Years. pr— CORN FAIRLY ACTIVE AND FIRM. A Bearish Foeling Again Shows Itself in the Provision Pit—Good Oat- tle Continue in Strong De- mand—Quotations, CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Curcaao, August 14.—[Special Telegram to Tne Bre.)—The scalper who originated the phrase: “Well, if farmers won't sell their ‘wheat at these prices we'll sell it for ‘em,” was, in his duy, considered particularly bright, and his remark was echoed down the yours, This morning some of the gentlemen who have lately been ‘“selling farmers' wheat for 'em” were observed scrambling after the property with the agility of cats on aback fence, The market was strong at considerably bigher prices, and on the sur- face it did not look as though values could by any possibility be pulled down. Cables were strong at advanced quotations, the weather abroad was quoted as unsettled, and the tone of foreign trade was of unqual- ified firmness. vorable to the bull side. Receipts at ail pri- mary points are disappointiugly smail, and the demand keeps up amazingly. One of the first bit of news started on the rounds this morning was the report that William Dunn & Co. had worked 150,000 bushels of No. 2 red from St. Louis for the La Platte country in South America New ns. This piece of business struck the trade “all in a heap,” as the saying is, for very few bave really taken uny stock in the stories of crop fallures in the Argentine Republic. This lttle czir- cumstance of 150,000 bushel shipment to an exporting country was therefore seen to boe something of unusual importance. Later on it was given out that Warren had worked 80,000 bushels of No. 1 hurd wheat from Du- luth to Glasgow. Local engagements io- cluded 96,00 bushels of wheat, and represen- tatives of several shipping houses were try- ing, with indifferent success, to get wheat to fill good sized orders. As high as Tdc was paid for 69,000 bushels ot old No. 2 spring, and car lots were mugh sought after. ~ Alto- gether the cash end of the wheat market was_exceedingly ‘‘gamey” from start to finish. The opening prices were at an_aa- vance of about }¢c, August. being quoted at Tic, September at 76¢ und December at 78){c. December sold off s, advanced to 78340, 80ld off Lo 78}4c, buck to 78}, fraction- ally reucting, and then advancing w0 78%c. A reaction to 78}c followed and a rally to 78Y@78%c. Thereafter the market ranged at 183 @i837c and closed at 781§ @787 tember opéned at 703Kc, !uld up 0 17ie, Imk 3o and up w Tiigc, closing at c. August opened at 7 o nnd ranged at mz §icand cloed at 78c. These figures record @ guin of 1}c in August, 1i4¢ in Sep- temper and 3{@%c in December. ‘The spec- ulative market” was not broad, but it is broadening perceptibly, and good signs of new buying is seen in the pit. Foreigners seem to bave pretty generally lett the bear side, both here and at the seaboard. They are buying both cash and futures now in the west, giving New York the go by for the present. This is probably because there is but little wheat to sell at tide water. There is still too much rainin the west to favor shipments from the country. The corn market was fairly active and firm. The demand for cash corn was active and offerings of August were light. Sep- tember opened ¢ over the closing prices of the precoding duy and made @ furthor ad- vance of ¢, Dbringing the price up o There was plenty the advance lnd “ Mncmon followed, which carried it down to 8530, The market ruled quietand steady for u long time around 853¢c, finally closing at that price. The very wet weather re- orted from some sections of Nebrusks and ansas was partly the occasion of some cov- ering by the short interest, and the buying of a proniinent local operator was also con- tributing to the prevailing firmness, The English markets were higher also, and in- quiry for export at the seaboard was re- ported to be active, In corn the influences present yesterday were again repeated, and values appreciated %(uxu with a good ' volume of speculative usiness recorded. The receipts continued rather small and so are the estimates for to- morrow, and the strength was intensified by the advance in the other cereals, as well as the cold and damp weather of the past twenty-four hours. Trading was well dis- tributed over all futures from August to May, with this and next months selling up to 20%c@03fc and May to 24@H5% though the strength in that future ‘was 10 !’ull maintaived. Withdrawals from store ‘e unot large and chiefly of No. 8 white. No 2 outs to zo to store were about #c lz:g}xer at 209c. No. 2 white, August, sold it ‘The provision trade was ugain kearish. Packers, led by Armour, showed more dis- position 'to support the market, but their efforts wero unavailing. Place, Mitchell and other bears were on top, and, backed by the prestige of a steady break during the week, made prices take another tumble, The day's range of quotations reached the lowost lovel vet witnessed, and from the start the feel- ng was quite demoralized. In the product the decline actually suffored was 15@e on September and October pork, 2)§@ic on Junuary pork, 2)@c on September and October lard, 730 on September aud Octo- ber stiort ribs and 2o on January short ribs.

New Youk, August 14.—|Special Telegram to Tup Bk |—8100ks—The topic most dis- cussed after hours last night and before stock tradiug was resumed to-day was the meeting of the Northern Pacific finance committes to-day.

On the gen- eral situation the bears are talking more boldly—with the prospect of close money, no outside trade and prices already pretty well advanced and conditions discounted, Chicago Advices ure bullish and western operators are full of confidence on the bullside.

The late leaders in speculation maintained their position, but the amount of business done in them was small and the rest of the list was in proportion. There was a botter feeling toward the end of the hour and in some directions slight improvements were made. Sugar trusts sold off at the opening at 10734, upto 108} and again weakened. Many of the Granger shares did not change but a slight fraction from last night.
