CHICAGO , July 29. Wheat wan Irregular
today , but finished with % c jsnln. September
corn closed 'Ac loner , September ouH Ho
higher and jirovMoni nt advances.
The wheat trade was surprised that the
ArKentlne shipments for the week , Instead
of belnn under 100.000 bu. or nil , us one
cablegram received on Saturday had It ,
really amounted to the quantity of G&O.OOO
bu. That was the rea on for a quick de
crease at the start from 1lc to 71'ic for
September wheat. It had barely touched
the loner of these quotations , however ,
when It started up againIn a hurry , and
Insldo of the first Ilftccn minutes It hud
risen to 72'lc. The rlso was very Irregular
after that , with a strongly bullish under
tone to the small buslne- " * which was BO-
Ing on. From "J'ic ' It dropped to 71Hc , lose
again to 72c , and after some Immaterial
fluctuations It got to a still higher point
than before , getting to 7irc about two
Ifhurs from the opening The Ru slnn ship
ments for the week \\erc reported at from
2,220,000 bu. up to 2,500,000 bu . and India's
at only 480000 bu. IMIrnutlng the ship
ments from sundry ports at 500.000 bu and
as&umlng the Ku slnn shipments at 2,100,000.
the world's shipments for the week would
aggregate 5,320,000 bu That being under
thu recent average \vns Instrumental In
causing the advance and "trength of the
forenoon. Tito primary market receipts ,
compared with those of the > ear before ,
exhibited the same striking deficiency for
the prevent npiuon as thev have been doing
since It commenced Now York ruled stiong
and the difference In price betuen there
and here widened to 4 > ic per bu The visible-
supply nlco showed up with the bulls , but
before Its figures wcro announced the daj's
advance had apparently ran Its course , and
by that time tile e.irly Infers were looking
for some sustaining feature to hold the
market for them while they unloaded The
price of September was TJ'fec when the vis
ible figures were made known , and In
twenty minutes thereafter It had declined
to 71'4c. Chicago receipts consisted of 110
carloads by rail .ind 10WO bu bv can il
The latter was all No 2 red. but only thtee
cars of the rail receipts Inspected No 2
red. Minneapolis and Dulutli received 2IS
cars , against 423 cars a year ago , and the
total of the primary we tern matkets was
S8C.OOO bu , compared with 1,169,000 bu last
week. The export clearances from Atlantic
ports for twenty-four hours weip equal to
about 1K7.000 bu Including flour The visible
supply nominally decreased 1,2T > 0,000 bu. As
a Chicago elevator had 493.CKW bu which
was counted In the stocks In sight last
week and not Included today , thp actual de
crease for the wpk was enl > 70,000 bu The
total In the vNlble supply Is now 39,229 000
bu , against 67,157,000 bu last year and 69-
307,000 bu. nt the corrc ° pen < llnK date of
1S93. The quantity on ocean passage cle-
cicased 200.000 bu , and the Cngllsh visible
si.iply Increised SCO 000 After the selling
out of long wheat which followed the postIng -
Ing of the visible upply statement , another
set of operators bepan picking It up again ,
and near the end It was bringing 7 8c
again , with 72'Jc the trading price nt the
closp. Thp Liverpool , I'arls and Antwerp
markets all came firm and slightly higher
nt thp clo e and Herlln was unchanged for
near deliveries and only He per bu. lower
for the more remote futures
' Corn held quite firm , considering the fur
ther progress under favorable weather con
ditions and the biggest crop on record as
far as It has gone. The good demand for
cosh corn was the mainstay of the special
delivery , and It In turn helped May Thi
receipts were 4.10 cars. Argentine shipped
1.429,000 bu. last week. The vl lble supplj
decreased 734,000 bu , compared with an In
crease the same week acur ago of UD.OOfl
bu. The total of the vlclble supply Is now
& .2Q7,000 bu , against 3 975,000 bu the same
time a year ago. The demand for spot corn
was of sufllcltnt urpcncy to moke It salable
at lie premium over September , and ever
° 4c over an exceptionally favorable position
The range for September was narrow , 424i
being ; the lowest and 41' ' c the highest foi
the day. It opened at 43c and 4J7dc , am
sold about the same time at 4240. It clunf ,
around 43c. during the greater part of the
day and was bringing 4J'c ' at the close
May eloped at A'Oic , or Uc lower since Sat
urday.
Oats were Inactive and almost featureless
The average tone of the market was In
clined toward flrmnp's , aided to some exten
by a higher cash market , but mostly In s > m
Iiathy with wheat and corn. The visible
supply showed a decrease In oats of 250 ( KK
bu. and left the total stocks In store 4S87,00 (
bu. September opened at 22c , sold up tc
22ac , down to 22'4c and closed at 22c tc
The provisions trade was dull and gave
very littles indication of Improvement Ir
prices until near the end or the eslon
when a demand sprung up which left val
ues at J1080V4 for September pork , W37V
for lard and $ G 15 for ribs These prices
compared with the final quotations on Sat
urday , show gains In pork , lard and ribs o
17',4c for the former and 6c each for the
latter.

Unless fotccd through Inability to pell on ac
count of the consumptive demand , It Is not prob
able that there will be n great deal more butter
ut nwny thl ? senion. In fact , the storage ca
pacities of the different cities are so taxed th it
: hcre li not room for n great deal more butter
to go In , should receivers desire to store It. The
three centers f'hlcago , lioston nnd New York-
hold nt iireif nl 461 000 tubs , where they held the
1st of September of last > ear 351 000 tubs. In
round numbeis , nnd the September holdings list

able that no other market In the country out
side of IJoston had morr butter the 1st of Sep
tember than the 1st of August , ns there was n
leavy consumptive demand for storage butter
during the month.

NCW YORK , July 29. Speculation on the
Slock exchange was very nctlvc todny nnd the
trading vvns generally strong In tone. At the
opening theie vvns a slight Improvement In vnl-
ues , but a number of selling orders were met
with , put out by the bents ns welt ns by weak
lolders of the grangers. In order to realize profits
These tales caused n renctlon. In which Chicago
Gas nnd Colorndo Fuel were most prominent ,
both falling off 1 per cent. The losses were
only fractional. This downward movement was
short lived , for the bujlng was to goul that thp
si-llers took alarm nnd changed over to the bull
side of the market. Hi ports legardlng the ciops
were contradictory , but the most noteworthy
advances were favornble and encouraging. Sugar
was tnken hold of by the bull clique In that
