CHICAGO , Sept. 8. Hail reports of the
Ku.Mslun wheat crop and heavy export ship-
im tits for the day , together with fresh
Mules for export at New York , gave a
strong closing today to a generally lirm
wheat market , and September left oft D-Mf

linn. Pork advanced 20c , lard 17'ic. and
ribs 15c.
Heavy northwestern receipts of wheat , a
knowledge of which was In possession of
the traders before the. session opened , went
a long way toward neutralizing the llrm-
niss with svhlc.li wheat Blurted at Liver
pool. The recent heavy and qullo steady
dedlne and the comparatively low price to
which wheat had already SUIIK , however ,
apparently made friends for thu grain and

were quite bullish from a market point , of

ti-nc-ral tenor , ho far this season thu tnove-
inc nt of new wheat In Russia has been
Mi.ull . enough to give what appears to lie

I : Ionian grain exporters who had sold
win-lit for shipment In September to tbo
1 riled Kingdom were trying to have the
f iititract'i cancelled , presumably because of
c iMIculty In getting the grain. It was also
M i ted that thirty-nine boatloads had been
worked for export at New York and 175.000

NEW YOHK , Sept. v-St. Paul made , the
markc.1 this monung and broke It this nft-
prnoon. Tiadlng w is not i > n a large scale
during the clay and all Intrrc-st centered
In the meeting of the St. Paul directors
to act on the cllvldt-nd. The rumor mongers
llxc-d thu dividend rule on the common all
tin- way from 2'j to 3 > 3 p < r cint. Those
who said that It would be 2'2 found little
credence and the- continue 1 ilriiimss of the
stock In faces ot recent heavy tone of tin ;
market and the conlident and heavy buy
ing of the early hours of the cluy sc-mi-cl
to Justify this IncrMlullty. There wns large
buying of Ht. Paul here for London ac
count and there was \ery active trading
on the London curb after the close theie ,
according to cabled reports. The price \\as
rushed up to 113 without any attention
being given to warning statements tli.it
very powerful Interests In the dlrectorati
were oppoaed to anything more thun the
24 per cent rate. . Tne tager bulls pointed
out ttiat the recent increase in the Hur-
llngton dividend was kept enshrouded in
the samp mystery up to tne moment of Its
declaration , when tno stork led a violent
upward movement. The showing of the
company tor the List llscal yenr was cltul
as continuing the confidence In an In
creased dlvloend dlsbutsement , the earn
ings applicable to the common stock hav
ing amounted to S 3-10 per cent after ex
traordinarily heavy expenditures for Im
provements charged to operating expenses.
When tlu ! announcement , .line about 2:20 :
p. m. thut tilt- directors had nr.idc u semi
annual dividend of only 2 per cent the prlco
dropped without check except for mo
mentary pause at each even number to
110U , which was 4-4 below the best. Numer
ous blocks of many thousand shares were
thrown on the mark--t with precipitate
eagerness and the market speedily took
on panicky condition * .

Northern i'.utllc preMred 2'n ' po.nts and
nutiKTous other stocks , botli In the rail
road and industrial lists , between 1 and 2
points. There was n quick rally of 1 to 1'j
per cent in these stocks which surfer d
most severely , but St. Paul was kept back
by apparently endless offering * about 111
and closed only 5-3 above Hit- lowest with
u very weak tone.
The demor.illzutlon caused by the break
In Ht. I'.iul came on a market showing
considerable- strength and at a level ma
terially above yesterday's close. Most of
tins strength , to be sure , was due to the
early .ulvuncu in St. Paul , but a sharp r. -
io\n-y In bugar and some other evening
stocks which hud shown cany weaknch.s
and an advance of nearly 6 points from the.
lowest In Metropolitan Strict Hallway
were also factors. The rate for call loans ,
after going to 1 per cent , eased off to : t ,

Increusew in thu amount ol tno government

showed measureh of nll-t from the coo-
stunt absorption by the treasury of cash
lor bond sulncriptions. The dulliu-SH ot tuo
local time monev market indkatus that the
present stillness of rates will not long
continue. ( in the other hand discount *
hardened today In London. Monetary con
ditions , however , were entirely lost sight
of In the late demoralization of the stoek
market.

The Evening Post's London ilnanclal
cablegram says :
The stock markets here opened Hut to
day. Consols and most other stocks weru
otitired , but the fall was most marked in
Americans , which weru treely sold in thu
drtiino In New York exchange and on the
bullet that liatvr n.f ney is at hand in
New York. The decline , however , was
short lived and the general smart play
which has taken place all mound confirms )
yesterday's cabled statement us to this
strong undertone ot the market. The re
covery in Americans was accompanied by

CATTLE Today's supply of beet cattlt
consisted of about ten loads of cornfed
steers and fourteen loads of South Dakota
Texas and two cir three loads of westeins ,
The balance of the receipts was made up ol
butchers stock und feeders. The market
on fat cattle was just about steady all
around and still It would have been hard
work to have sold westerns yesterday ot
the clay before nn high as Home ot them
Hold today. Good cornfed branded cuttle
averaging 1,470 pounds sold ( is high as $5.15 ,
but they were very fat and well llnlshed.
At the same time cattle that were not so
fat. but weighing about the same , sold for
$1.75 , thus showing the wide difference be-
twc'on well finisher ! beeves and those only
half fat. The demand was quite active and
the' cuttlo all changed hands early in the
morning.
Hutchers' stock was slow sale. The re
ceipts wcro Homewhat larger than usual
and the quality rather common on an aver
age , to that buyers were Inclined to bu
bearish and they succeeded In buying the
cow stuff 15 to 2.1 cents lower.
In the stoeker and feeder division the
situation w.is considerably Improved to
what it has been for several days past.
The break In values has started up the
country demand and speculators all sold
n good many cattle yesterday. This mornIng -
Ing early the country demand was strongly
In evidence and under that Inlluence and
the moderate receipts buyers all took hold
and the pens were soon cleared of fresh
receipts. The best kinds of heavy feeders
were a ll'tle Btronger and very active at
that. Medium grades did not show any Im
provement , but the market was fully
steady. Representative sales :
