CANCELLING ORDERS
AND WHEAT FALLS
J. P. Morgan Said to Have
Denied Rumor But Mar-
ket Is Nervous.
MOVEMENT IS UNEVEN
CHICAGO. 111. Aug. 13.—Excite!
breaks that reached as much as B%c a
bushel In some rases took place In the
wheat market today ng a result of re-
ports that sales of nearly 2.000000 bushels
to exporters had been cancelled.» J. P.
Morgan is reported to have denied the
rumor. As the sales however were con-
ceded to show a profit to the buyers the
excitement soon subsided and the mar-
ket steadied «t about 2c under Inst ntgn* s
level. Traders generally were inclined to
believe that difficulty In filling the ex-
port contracts at present had a good deal
to do with the cancellations and tnat
chances of the opening of the Dardanelles
was only in a remote wav. If at all re-
sponsible.
Opening prices of wheat with September
at »1.07*w to $llO rnd December at $1.06
to $l.OB ranged al! the way from l-il^c
to 3@>3%c under last night’s figures.
When the rush at the opening was over
the market was pivoting «t $1.09% for
September and >1.07% for December.
Weakness In wheat depressed corn. Ths
opening which ranged from % to 6lr
lower w as followed by some slight furth *r .
losses.
Oats gave way with wheat. Country of.
brings were materially enlarged. Cover-
ings by shurts made provisions average
higher.
Later the wheat market underwent a
fresh decline. Influenced somewhat by un-
expectedly heavy arrivals of new wheat
here. It was said also that largely owing
tn the semi -demoralized condition of tlie
sterling exchange market the buying of
wheat on foreign account had virtually
come to a temporary halt. The close was
nervous at >1.07% for September and
$1.07% for December a loss of 1% to 3%
I from last night
Subsequent price changes in corn were
narrow. The close was steadv «. to %
under last night.

JUMP IN SUGAR IS
SIGNAL FOR BUYING
Local Brokers Announce Rise
of 15 Cents in Fine
Granulated.
The sugar brokers notified the groc- r
jobbers Friday of a 15-cent per hundwred-
weight advance in the price of their gran-
ulated product and there was a general
scramble among merchants who have been
holding out of the market to book »up-
plles. Ixist week’s crash in sugar values
t caused considerable uneasiness among
e merchants ami large consumers of sugar
* am! there was a genera! movement to
f stop bu.ving sugar until the market M-
. came steadier. Merchants were unwill-
ing to bonk carlot ehlpmcnts for fear the
? market would * decline further. Now that
prices have started up again there If a
* general tendency to stock up shelves
again. It 1h reported that the advance is
due to heavy purchases of raws by Europe.
Business In the local wholesale markets
Frldav was active. (The movement et
cotton pickers to the farms Is Increasing
the volume of trade In the country and
orders for meats lards and all kinds or
staple groceries is steadily expanding this
w a ek No price changes of importance
. were made by the packets during the day.
j The produce commission men are doing
■ a goi*<i country business at the same level
of prices that prevailed last week.
' Th* grain jobbers and flour mills had
‘ no further changes to make in the r
prices for the day. The report from Chi-
cago that the allies were cancelling orders
for vast quantities of wheat caused some
1 concern but when these rumors were later
denied confidence in the market was re-
established.
The San Antonio branches of the Toxas
OH Company and other oil assorlat.ons
marked up their prices 10 points ^n re-
fined petroleum Friday. This is the sec-
ond advance this week. Crude oil fa go-
ng upward steadily In the Pittsburg mat-
