National Analine was also weak, falling 4% to 70. Railroad stocks were fractionally higher. There was a general disposition among strong interests Mo buy stocks at the opening and this demand continued ail through the first hour, causing a strong Maxwell Motors, after its early break of 3% points to 7%.- rallied to 10. The leading stocks acted in a strong manner and Steel common, after being subjected to boar pressure and reacting to 85%, moved up to 5574.

L. & IV. 24%, up %. (By Thomson A McKlnno\.) —Aug. 10— NEW YORK. Aug. 10.—A reminder that business readjustment is tending to bring about deflation in prices for staple commodities, was had today in reports of actual transactions in granulated sugar at a sharp reduction from nominal quotations maintained by leading refiners. Sugar shares broke sharply in the late trading, the weakness in this quarter becoming the outstanding feature of the market. Trading in other issues, industrials as well as rails, dwindled to insignificant proportions long before the close, with prices showing a fairly steady tendency after moderate gains, which had been registered in some active speculative favorable. News that-* bolshevik forces were massing for a final drive on Warsaw, evidently influenced the trade as a whole to stand by and await developments. The encouragement which the bolshevik has received from the seemingly symf>athetic attitude of various labor parties n Europe is recognized in international banking circles as one of the unfortunate developments in the situation, until there is definite improvement, in news front abroad we do not look for any change in character of trade.

BULLISH MOVES BRING GRAIN UP Polish Situation „Is Still & Bullish Feature. CHICAGO. Aug. 10.—Short coverings started a buying wave on the grain market today, following an opening sag dne to the bearish government crop report and all grains were forced up several cents over yesterday’s close. The military situation in Poland continued to be a bullish feature. December wheat opened at $2.31, off lc from yesterday's close, and closed at $2.37%. March wheat was off % at the openin?, at $2.41%, but gained 6%c at the cl ose. September corn, after opening at $1.42%, down l%c, closed at $1.47. December opened at $1.22, off %c, and closed at $1.24%. September oats were % lower at the opening but later gained 2%, closing at 72%. December oats opened at 69%, off %, and closed at 70%.

Buying by cash interests and seaboard houses appeared soon after the opening. The seaboard houses said that France has been buying under cover and there is some evidence that there has been foreign buying of the future deliveries in this market A leading crop expert, now in North Dakota. claims that the probable yield of spring wheat has been considerably reduced by climatic conditions since the government report was ’compiled. One other item of strength is the disappointingly small movement of winter wheat.

Market given considerable evidence of being oversold. Further than this the demand for cash corn is larger than the moveinetg, contract grades selling 10 to 12c over the September. Farmers are not selling and stocks in country elevators are thought to be fairly well cleaned up. The market is in poor position tc withstand the appearance of high temperatures. The forecast for the week calls for temperatures somewhat above normal with no rain. Would not be surprised to see a rather strong market for the next few days, particularly in the event that heat overaspreads the west. Oats—The movement of the new crop of oateis not up to expectations. Because of this leading cash handlers bave been liberal buyers of the September delivery. There is a little foreign inquiry noted at the seaboard, but no business, closed. We are of the belief that this market, like corn, is heavily and should rule strong for some time ar least. Provisions —Holders of hog products are by no means confident of their posltß>n and more or less liquidation appears.

[email protected] 15.75 @15.75 [email protected] 10. 15.00 @15.25 [email protected] [email protected] Slight competition between the eastern shippers and local packers and a fairly good supply of good light and heavy hogs brought the price of hogs on the market today down 25 to 50 cents. Local packers bought slightly more than half of the hogs on the market, while eastern shippers took approximately 3,000. Receipts for the day approximated 8.000, with 7,000 fresh hogs and 1,000 left over from Monday. It was thought that there will be approximately 1,000 left over for tomorrow’s market. * At the opening of the market eastern were paying sl6 for good light nogs, but local packers bought at 25 cents lower and there was a general downward movement by the shippers. The price schedule set by local packers was: Hogs weighing 160 to 225 lbs, $15.75; 225 to 250 lbs, $15.50; 250 to 275 lbs. $15.25, and 275 to 300 lbs, sls. Roughs brought sls down, while the pig market was comparatively steady with yesterday. The bulk of the sales ran between $15.25 and sl6. The cattle market, with the exception of one load of fine steers that buyers were bidding $16.50 for at the opening of the market, was steady with yesterday. The feature of the market was the lack of good cattle, much of the stuff in commission men said should not be on the market. The only noticeable drop In prices was in winners, where there was a drop of 50 cents. Cattle receipts approximated 800. with a few left over from Monday. Buying and selling was but slightly more active than on Monday. The market for calves was steady to strong with the bulk of good calves bringing $16.50 and a few outside bringing as high as sl7. Receipts approximated 600. The sheep and iamb markelwas steady with receipts at approximately 600. HOGS.
