in Session llcliinl Uy Corn
nml Wheat.
CillCAaO, July 3. Wheat was firm and
nctlvo today under bullish advices from
homo nnd abroad, August closing l'MlBc
over yesterday. Corn closed lQl'.Sc up and
oats io Improved. Hog products at tho
cose were 74j?jlSc better.
That longs In wheat overnight had cvl
". ntly absorbed somo hope during the night
was apparent when tho market opened.
' ley hud In mind tho fact that tho mur
I. t declined 11c from the top and hence
r ht bo ready for a reaction. Tho main
1. Huenco at first, however, wus tho uncx
t'Clcd Rte.'idlncfls of Liverpool In tho face
tho 3c decline hero yesterday. The
l nrket showed only a fractional loss) and
urine the first trailing bourn it-gained
wira of that. It was ulso reported that
Liverpool shlpplns bids were nearly on a
arlty with American prices, August
wheat on tho Hoard of Trade joencd lf
lHc higher at TftVu'TSVic and ehortly after-T.-ard
sold to 7Wc. on profit taking All
; UHt reacted to SV4c, whl6h proved to be
the bottom price for the day. There were
i lore rains In the northwest, but reports
Pom that section said the three days' pre
r pltatlon of moisture, although heavy, had
rnmn too late. Complaints that the croo
In North Dakota and .Mlimrsola was almost
complete failure wero numerous. Kroni
Chill camo the report that rnlns prevented
t-owlng. rendering a small crop next season
Inevitable. This sort of news set the shorts
to covering. Their buying, coupled with
pome outsldo demand nnd support from In
fluential local bulls, caused a rally which
tarried August to S0'ifiWc. Tho bulge
net the usual prollt taking and tho market
dropped from tho top to '9i.(,'-i7:i'4e, but the
loso was strong, August Itrffl" up at
TUfiTDHC. Seaboard clearings in wheat
mid flour wero equal lo 4S4,(0) bu. Primary
receipts aggregated 3S10uO bu. Minneapolis
nnd Duluth reported W ears, against Mi
last week. local rerolpts were 144 cam,
seven of contract grade.
Torn gave an exhibition of strength and
nctlvlty, willed was partly due to wheat,
but principally to Its own condition. Hot
weather In Kansas nnd Nehrusku and an
excellent cash demand were lin.'ortnnt
links In tho bull ohnln. Liverpool was
hlghor for futures, but deprerscd on spots.
Receipts were 1,161 ears. The outside de
mand was excellont and the covering of
shorts on a liberal scale, August sold be
tween 42io and llftc. closing lffl'sc up at
CiWttUc.
Oats were n bit easy, following a firm
opening, but turned upward later In the
day, helped by corn and wheat, and rioted
firm. There wu considerable liquidation
by northwestern Interests and this caused
l-he depression early. During the latter hnlf
of the session Hhorts were the beat buyers.
Receipts 'were 463 cars. August sold be
tween ZSc and 22Hc und closed ije better
at 23ic.
Tho provision market was strong and
moderately active. Hog rcelpt wero light
und considerably under the estimate, The
f;raln strength was a help nnd there was
ess selling by western packers than there
has been recently. Shipments of produce,
during the twenty-four hours preceding
were very larse. Shorts were the best
buyers. September pork sold between $13.00
and J12.90 and closed lf,c over yesterday at
JI2.D0J Septomber lard between t-7.00 and
y.jf5.!4. closing 7H better at M.92l..
nmt September ribs between $7.20 and $7.10,
with tho close 7Wc higher nt $7.10.
Estimated receipts tomorrow: Wheat, ffi
rars: corn, W0 cars; oats, 230 cars; hogs,

Obvious MlTort .tlmle to Continue Ad
vance lit Prices,
NEW YORK, July 3.-There was nn ob
vious effort this morning to continue tho
manipulated advance In prices which was
set on foot yesterday by a clique of tiro
fesslonal traders. The attempt met with
considerable success for ft time, astlsted
an It was by special Inlluences n (Tec ting one
or two Individual stocks, Thero was nn
active revival of old and neglected rumors
concerning dividend paving prospects of a
number of railroads, which h.i'e been pur
suing a downward course for some tltnu on
account of tho general supposition that sur
plus railroad earnings would be conserved
for future needs, rather thun distributed as
Increased dividends. Prominent in this
class were Baltimore Si Ohio and Missouri
Pacific, which were advanced about n point
or over by an active bidding up process
during the morning, There was a contin
uance of the recent unexplained demand
for tho Reading nnd New Joisey Central
stocks, the latter rising nt unu time 2
points. Sugar rose with nn appearance of
strength, but rclnpsed on realizing with
the announcement of a further rlso In tho
price of tho product. Brooklyn Trunslt de
rived some benefit from yesterday's verdict
In the trial for conspiracy to discredit tho
securities of the company. The arly de
pression .from London, whero the growing
seriousness of the problem In China had Its
effect, seempd to ba totally Ignored In this
market and had no Influence. In checking
tho opening; .dvnnce. Not flo with tho In
fluence of thu wheat market, which nsnln
demonstrated Its dominating power on
stocks, When prices of wheat were seen
to advanco railroad stocks turned down
wards and found no effective support for
the rest of the day. The general level of
prices fell balow last night In tho Into
dealings, but there wre some tockx which
retained small not gains, though much di
minished from those at tho high level of
prices. Although the advance was checked,
the gains wnlcn were secured In yesterday'
movement were not very largely en
croached upon. The market durlmr the lat
ter part ot the day was dull almout to the
point of stagnation, there being no disposi
tion to put out fresh contracts on the eve
of a. holiday. Rock Island was added to tho
list of railroads whose operating expenses
for May have more than wlptd out Wio In
creano In their gross earnings. The money
market was very dull nnd not quotubly
changed, but tho diffusion of Interest and
dividend payments hHS evidently com
menced. The sub-treasury had a debit bal
anca at the clearing; house Unlay of nearly
$2.000,0011, and the day's excess of expendi
tures over rocelpts of public revenues ut
Washington amounted to $2,372.15). These
figures reflect tho poytnent of lntcrst on
government bonds. It wa reported that
tho Canadian Bank of Commerce, waa In
receipt of $fiCO,000 of Klondike gold.
On tho other hand, New York exchnnso
ut Chicago fell from 20c premium to par
nnd there was daos!ted at the sub-trensury
here $100,0u0 for payment fit other polnto.
Tho Interior demand for currency Is thus
seen to be growing.
Tho bond mnrkat moved In sympathy with
stocks, advancing In tho early dealings, but
yielding somewhat with tine reaction In
stocks, Total sales, par value, $940,000.
United States old 4 nnd new 4s advanced
14 point and tho Za and Cs 14 point In tho
bid prlco.
Tho Commercial Advertiser's London
financial cablegram Is as follows; Tho mar
kets here were colorless nnd undecided to
day In the absence of further news from
China. American securities moved within
narrow limits and the dealings In them
wero petty. The bank sold 23,000 sterling
gold In French coin. Rills wero easier and
the market repaid further large Indebted
mifa to tho bank.

BERLIN, July 3. On tho bourso today
prices wero llrmer and advanced on pur

Iuer thero was a reaction, owing to tho
uncertainty of tho political situation and
tho apprehension of n now taxation bill.

Cotton Mnrket.
NRW YORK, July 3. While today's cot
ton murket was higher the volumo of busi
ness was moderate and the gsnernl char
acter of the trading was unsatisfactory, be
ing specially lacking In the element of
public Interest. Officially th market
opened steady, with prices 40 points
higher. Subsequently transactions raised
the level of prices still higher. At tho
strongest Interval tho net gain on yester
day's closing figures was a mntter of llifT
18 points. The demand enme chiefly from
local sources, with buying to cover short
contracts the feature of the day's business.
The strong cables were to some extent off
set by a disposition to fear that the Kng
llsh cotton trado rwus predisposed to tako
alarm and magnify the damage to tho
growing crop In .Mississippi and other sec
tions or tho cotton belt through late exces
sive rains. It Was argued that the for
eigners had been so badly punlfched for
their disregard oflast year's crop damage
reports that they were unduly Intimidated
by tho conflicting accounts and that for
this reiuson tho advance of 3-32d In spot
prices and liflB-Sld In futures at Liverpool
was probably more than the situation
justified. On this reasoning there was some
selling here for a reaction, especially ns
general outside speculative Interest was not
11 factor. The. weokly weather report, al
though bullish, as hardly tis much as of
lato, somewhat sensational reports from
private sources had led the trade to expect.
Tho official statement, therefore, fell rather
flat and left the market to finish In a.
quiet, featureless fashion, steady In tone,
with the net advance of the day reduced to
10- 515 points. Futures cloed steady; July,

Wool Market.
TiONDON, July 3, Tho wool auction sales
opened today with a lnrg attendance, with
buyers from all sections present. The of
ferings numbered 7,478 bales and consisted
principally of crossbrmls. Competition for
coarse goods was spirited and were chiefly
secured by tho homo trade. The demand
for merinos and finer crossbreds show less
animation, merinos closing 10yi5 per cent
and fine crcssbreds 10 per cent oft. Medium
stocks shoved a loss of 714 Per cent from

CATTLE There wns an exceptionally
light run of cattle for Tuesday nt the yards
today, probably owing to a large extent to
tho fact that tomorrow will bo a holiday.
The offerings wore made up largely of fnt
cattle of fair quality, though there was a
good sprinkling of half-fat stuff and cattle
showing grass. There wan not much cow
stuff on sale and stock cattlo were also
In light receipt.
The light run of beef cattle today made
competition nmong local packers quite
keen, ns they nil seemed to want their usual
Tuesday supply. As a result the market
opened up at an early hour nnd offerings
changed hands nt a rapid rate. Anything
choice sold close to 10c higher than on
Monday, while more common and half-fat
stuff was In better demand nt fully steady
prices, owing to the shortage In good cat
tle. Grass cattle also moved more freely
for the same reason. It was a good market
throughout, with prices ranging strong to
10c hlaher.
Good cow stuff was In good demand to
day, and In some cases commanded a little
stronger prices. Grass cows and common
stuff In gmeral sold nbout the samo as
they have been, though the market today
was a little uneven, tho Drlcn dencnditiK- n
good deal on how badly a buyer wanted the
cattle. Bulls, calves and sUgs sold about
the same as yesterday, but calves arc con
siderably lower than they were a week ago.
The stocker and feeder trade took on a
little more life today, us the yards were
pretty well cleaned up yesterday and buyers
were looking for more cattlo. There were
very few cnttle of that description In the
yards, however, and there was no material
change In the market. Representative

SHEEP Thero was a fairly liberal sup
ply of sheep at the ynrdh today. As has
been tho enso ever since grass sheep began
to comr, the receipts were mnde up to a
law extent of feeders, for which there Is
MMIe demand. Anything fat. however, nnd
of good quality Is In good demund by the
packers Choice Iambs In particular sell
well nnd anything nnswerlng to that de.
.icrlutlon wlfl bring good prices. Choice
wethers are nlso good sellers, but shippers
scmlln-r in poor stuff cannot expect high
prices nt this time. The market today was
stendy to strong on tho desirable fat stuff,
nit slow and weak on anything on the com
mon order. Representative sales:

United States Department of Agriculture,
climate and crop servlco of the weather bu
reau, bulletin of the Nebraska section for
the week ending Monday, July 2:
Tho past week has been very warm, the
average dally excess In temperature verylng
from about 3 degrees above normal In tho
eastern portion to over 0 degrees above In
the western. Tho maximum temperatures
were abovo 90 degrees on three or four days
of tho iveek.
Nearly all of the precipitation fell during
tho night of July 1 and 2, when well-dls-trlbuted
showers nnd thunder-storms oc
curred In practically all sections.
Tho dry weather of tho week haa been
especially favorable for the harvesting of
small grain nnd the cultivation of corn.
Corn has made oxceltent growth; the crop
Is well advanced and Is being laid by In all
sections. Tho wheat, oat nnd rye harvest
Is progressing rapidly In the southern and
central sections. In the middle and south
western portions wheat and oats hare been
damaged, but In the southeastern section
the yield of these grains Is large and the
quality excellent. Grasshoppers and chinch
bugs nre doing somo damage, chiefly In tho
southwestern counties, In the western hnlf
of the state the absence of rain has caused
pastures to becomo very dry; elsewhere they
continue excellent. A severe windstorm In
thn northeastern section on the 271 h caused
fruit to drp very badly nnd did some dam
age to other crops. Report by counties:
