Wheat closed at a decline of Mo nml com un changed for September. Oats lost W.bo on hravy country offerings uml perfect weather, and provisions, Influenced by light stocks and good ensh demand, ad vanced 2VM' for pork, T'fc'flOo for lard and 12!ic for ribs. Opening trades In September wheat were made nt prices 'i'lUo lower than yester ilny'M closing, 75c being offered first. The price soon slid off another small fraction to "Pic then recovered tn Tu'.fec. which proved to lie the IiIkIi mark for thn day. Liverpool was Ud up, hut that had no In lluence, tho main 'factor In the small de cline being the perfect weather In tho northwest and the comparative weakness of the markets In that section. Scalpers wc.ro moderate sellers, but for some, tlmo tho market held fii It ly steady at about 75c on a gradually decreasing amount of trade, tho transactions dually growing so insignificant that the pit was almost do fccrtcd. Chiefly from this neglect tho Sep temher price slowly slipped oft to "IV". but below 75c there appeared to be n fair demand and the price was not allowed tn remain at that point toni; and during tho last hour the market again assumed sotuo degree of steadiness, helped somewhat by reports of good export engagements at the seaboard. Trading throughout the session was almost entirely of u local nature, ott slde orders being few and far between. September closed at "IMl'fit". Northwest receipts were not cars, compared with last week and Lis! a year ago. Chicago re ceipts were 3fil cars, 4I of contract grade. Total primary receipts were SiKJ.OOu tin., against MX.OOO bu. u year ago. Tho sea board reported f3 loads taken for export. Tho world's visible Increased 2,.KX),000 bu. Com was fairly stead within narrow limits. There was a slight opening decline, duo to sympathy with wheat, but later the market becamo steady and prices recov ered. Country offerings were light, but tho cash demand was also slow. Receipts were till! cars.

MnrUet Ii Improved 1i- Stntements of Itiillronil t'lirnlnus, NEW YORK, July ,H,-Somo nnlmatlnn was given to the closing dealings In the stock market today by the conlllctlng movements of prices engendered by the up ward spurt in I'nlon Pacific nnd the rcal zlng In Sugar. Tho break In Sugar proved the moro elTeetlvo In Its Intluence nnd the market closed weak at about tho low level of th day, after having shown considera ble gains In many stocks nt un earlier period. Tho. trading was dull and con tinued entirely In professional hands. The early strength wns reflected to somo ex tent from the foreign stock markets, which showed decided relief over the ro llahlo tenor of the news of the safety of ho envoys In Pckln. Tho small commit ments on tho bear sldo put out yesterday were closed up, helping tho rise. A number of statements of railroad net earnings for Juno published over night wero factors of strength. This was nota bly truo of tho Pennsylvania report, on account of tho extent of territory covered by Its lines and the exceedingly varied character of Its tratllc. which mako Its statements valued as necurnto reflections or general conditions In tho rnllrond world. I ho stock .of tho company advanced l'A under this Inlluenco and tho prico was well held through tho later vicissitudes of the market, affording 11 rather striking con trast to the Indifference with which Juno reports of some other railroads wero re ceived. Tho largo not Increnso shown by tho Atchison system did not avail to hold the stock and Ilurllngton, lifter rising a sharp fraction, fell below Inst night's level on realizing when Its statement appeared. I hp J per cent seml-nnnual dividend on I nlon Pacific has been counted upon with certainty, on account of tho authoritative character of the promises made.

The commoner grades, however, brought good, steady prices, although eastern markets reported that class of stock weak. A bunch of Short Horns sold ns high as $5.50, which was me same as tne nign point nisi ween. The cow market wns fatrlv well sunnlled. but good stock moved freely at .lust about stendy prices. Common cows wero rather neglected, lint still prices wero not materially different from what they have been for the last few days. Taking every thing Into consideration the prices paid wore very satisfactory to tho selling In terests. Hulls, calves, etc.. sold at luut about steady prices, inero was no material change today In tho atocker nnd feeder trade. Tho demand was good for tho hotter grades and prices paid were fully steady. The common grades, of which there was a good supply I'Miiiy, inn nni move so ireoiy, mil still they wero dlsnosed of nt nrlrns u'hlrh rmn. pared favorably with past sales, Western cattle today were mostly com posed of stockcrs on tho commonlsh order.
