THE OMAHA DAIL COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL Price Levels Get Oonsiderably Mixed on Board of Trade WHEAT FLUCTUATES, CLOSING STEADY Drops a Shade, Onts Rise, While wisions Stay About the Same as on the Previous Day. Cor CHICAGO, Aug. 11.—The sentiment in the | wheat pit today was somewhat mixed and, although high prices ruled eariy in the day, the market later exhibited considera- ble easiness, and SBeptember closed only e higher. September corn closed a shade lower. Outs were up, while provisions were unchanged to 7%e lower, Wheat openea firm, with September a shade lower to %@%c higher at the start at ‘ougsoge. Local ‘traders were disposed to sell on the small advance, which resulted in steadier tone, while seiling off to 9%@ 79%¢, but, with a strong corn market, prices soon rallled again and Beptember advanced to #0%c. Some of the large intereats that were supposed to be sellers yesterday were agein on that side of the markei and on the least show of strength the seling com- menced. During the last hour the market became quiet, weak and September da- clined to 79%c, closing at 80c, a shade higher than yesterday's close. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 528,100 bu. Primary receipts were 782,100 bu, against 1,213,300 bu. a year ;" Minne: apolls and Duluth reported receipts of 106 cars, which with local receipts of 20 cars, 29 of contract grade, made total re- celpis for the three points 314 cars, against 332 cars last week and 622 cars a_year ago. Unseasonably cool weather throughout the corn belt caused firmnesa in corn, in spite of the bearish construction placed upon the crop report. Opening prices were easier, but a good demand from prominent bull operators, who were influenced by the fears of early frosts, soon caused a rally and the market became quite strong. The late weakness in wheat, however, had a depressing effect and all of the early strength was lost, the close being at about yesterday's figures, with September a shade lower at 524c, after selling between Bi%c and 52%c. Local receipts were 234 cars, with 27 of contract grade. Oats ruled firm, despite the fact that the government report was bullish. Local bully Were active buyers of the distant mon!hs. After selling between 34ic and M%c_Sep- tember closed ic higher at 34%c. Local receipts were 325 cars. Provisions were firm at the start, on buy- ng by forelgners, but in the absence of speculative interest the market gradually turned easy. September pork closed bitTie ’{{-'&K at $13.06@13.37%.
