BALLY CABBIES WHEAT HICHEB Coarse Grains Lag Lower at Finish. Bu Visited Press CHICAGO, Aug. 13.—A belated rally carried wheat futures to a higher close on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Coarse grains lagged and were fractionally lower at the finish. Wheat was again in professional hands. A conepicious feature was total lack of buying incentive. The increased country movement tions for the new crop caused heavy selling in corn. The downward revision was held in check by the strong feeling in wheat. A firm undertone was in evidence in oats but lack of aggressive support prevented marked price changes. Provisions dropped off in provision house realizing.

TRADE REVIEW SAYS

NEW YORK, Aug. 13.—Although hampered somewhat by seasonal quiet reports from the various market centers indicate that hard--ware sales continue to maintain a satisfactory volume, and in some instances are well in advance of those of last year, says Hardware Age in its weekly summary. The month of August is starting out favorably, and while fall ordering has not yet attained sizable proportions, a satisfactory volume of fill-in orders on both seasonable and staple lines is reported Collections are generally favorable, and this coupled with the fact that prices on practically all lines are firm, indicates the basically healthy condition of the market.
