WEATHER STILL TOO HOT FOR TRADING Corn Mnrket Affected Jiy More Fa vorable Crfip .Venn tint Hnlc CoiiiiiiirntlvHy Sternly Pro vlnlou nt Stiiiiilatlll, CHICAGO, Aur. 8. The weather was again too oppressively hot for traders on 'chnnga today and all markets dropped frorrl tho lack of Interest. Wheat closed It a, dccllno of c, corn. closed Vtic lower, oats '.l&Uc lower and provisions a shailo to 10c lower. Wheat traders were not looking for lower cables today, following the sharp ndvanco yesterday In this murket, and xvhen I.lvur pool reported n decline of Hid tho effect was marked. Opening prices In September "bowed a decline or 4j?c and another eood-slzed fraction was knocked off the prlco before tho session had progressed very' far. Liverpool reported tho decline thcro was duo to Improved weather condi tions In Knuland. As thero were no es pecially bullish features to tho domestic conditions, and as the weather was too hot for traders to tako much Interest, the market after tho llrst hair-hour degen erated Into a skirmish between scalpers, with n perceptible undercurrent In favor of tho Holllng side. What llttlo support tho market old recclvo was chiefly Irom local trndcrs, outslda Interest bHnB nppur- ently entirely nbscut and tho market ruled heavy .until tho last hour's trading, when It becamo really weak. Selling pressure by thoso who wcro on tho buying sldo yes terday becamo heavier, while thero was no , Incroimu In tlio demand. Following the opening decllno to 7&4075T4c, September rased off to 75i4f?75Hc. It recovereu slowly to 7Cc, which prlco was reached in one or two minor transactions, and then crnd ually declined, until shortly before tho close tho markut touched tVtc. Tho closo was heavy at 75c. Northwest receipts were 46 cars, against 230 last week, and 121 a year ago. Chicago receipts wero aw cars, BO of contract grade. Aggregate receipts nt primary points wero l,2U,0Ou bit., compared with 6.!5,ooo b:i. a year ago. This heavy lncrenso had somo effect. Atlantic port clearances of wheat and Hour amounted to 130,000 bu. Foreigners wcro declared good buyers at tho seaboard, but figures on en gagements wcro not given. Corn was dull nnd heavy for most of tho session. Tho market was affected by tho favorablo weekly crop reports, which belled tho recent damngo complaints, nnd by re ported rnins In somo sections of tho corn belt. Tho lato weakness in wheat also, had Its effect. Tho bulk of tho light trading was largely In the wny of liquidation and largely uy local holders. Country ..ccept nnces wcro light. Itccclpts were 187 enrs. September ranged from 37?c to 3S',$c and closed ''i'sjTio lower at 3740. Oats wcro dull, but comparatively steady, In view of tho weakness in other grain markets. A slight decline took place in sympathy, but selling pressure wns not heavy. Klevator interests wero tho best sellers. Tho outstdo demand Improved lato In tho day, though not much business wns done. Receipts wero 332 cars. September ranged 2ti to 21f,fi:.'2c, nnd closed JVUUc lower, at 21?ic. Provisions wero almost at a standstill. Tho grain weakness had somo effect early, causing enough local selling to depress prices a llttlo all nround. Packers wero fair buyers ugalnst cash sales, all report ing a good cash demand for meats. At tho close September pork was 10c lower, at JIl.TTVi; September lard 2Vic lower, at J0.82'i and September ribs a shade lowor, at J7.15.

American Siiliacrlptlnna to llrltlxh Honda Contlnnea to lie 11 Fen til re. NEW YORK, Aug. 8. Tho stock market today was duller than yesterday and the movement of prices wns trivial and Inslg nlflcnnt without nn Important exception. Tho room traders sold stocks In the morn ing, impelled, apparently, by tho reports of the heavy volume of gold to be exported. Estimates were put out that tho amount of shipments today and tomorrow would mount up to over $7,W,0j0. When It was seen that tho total would not exceed $5,300, 000 tho room shorts covered. The market closed practically lifeless near to hist night's level. Yesterday's advancing ten dency In United States Rubber was con tested and that stock was quite active and feverish, ranging over 194 and closing nt iv not gain of c. There wus the usual professional dallng In Sugnr and Brook lyn Transit, the latter suffering from tho delay In tho publication of the annual re port, which had been promised at various times. Tho largo American subscriptions to tha new British oxenequer bonds continued to absorb a largo amount of discussion and surmlsa In Wall street. As nn evidence of tho largo resources of capital available to tho country, the Incident wns generally ac cepted as subject for national congratula tion; but ns nn evidence of the acute pros suro to which the London money market U being subjected and the possible results on tho world nt lurge it this condition, It wns not regarded as reassuring. It Is evi dent from the public criticism In England of tho largo allotment mnde to tho United States nnd the apologetic tone of tho ex planation to Parliament by the chancellor of tho exchequer that the policy adopted was forced by money conditions, vhlch might almost be classed ns embarrassed. Thonllotment to the United States of half the loan before 'subscriptions were received in England nnd tho quick closing of tlia loan Is In quick contrast to the effort made to discriminate in favor of small subscrib ers In tho case of last April's "khaki" loan, Tho result of that policy has been that spec ulators havo recurred to tho money market to meet the periodical Installments nn tho loan nnd to enrry their holdings, with perl odlcal pressure on the market ns a result. Thero Is presumptive evidence also of some spetilal provision entered Into with tho "leading Anglo-American houses In Lon don," which were nlloted half of the issue to Insure shipments of gold In payment, The relief thus afforded to tho London mar ket will thus bo more direct, but In the last nnaljvls tho stringency of money In Lon don insured nn ultimate movement of gold. Tho real cause looming big behind the movement of gold Is tho expenditure nnd preparations for war, shown by tho efforts to replenish tho national trensury chests. Tomorrow's shipments of gold to Pnrli show that the center is still in competition with London for the nreclous metnl and piling up of reserves by the Hank of Franco Is now commonly accepted ns n preparation for a pending Russian loan, said to amount to $200,000,000. Tho news of a renewed at tack on the legations In Pekln. the progress of hostilities Involved In tho mnrch on Pekln and tho languaco of the queen's ad dress In proroguing Parliament all gave force to these considerations and contrib uted to the profound dullness of speculn- t on in securities, not only in New lorn, but In nil the great finnnclal markets, Honda wero neglected and Irregular.

There wero only u. few loads of corn cattle on sale and tho better grades of steers wore in active demand and brought good, steady to strong prices. The commoner grades wcro of course neglected, the same as they have been all along, and prices wero no better. Tho cow market was well supplied and packers were Indifferent buyers. The strictly choice cows and heifers In some cases may have brought Just about steady prices, but the tendency was decidedly In tho direction of lower prices. Particularly was this true of the medium grades. Bids wero unevenly lower and owing to that fact it is dltlicult to tell much about the market. Sellers, however, are calling It all tho way from 15c to 25c lower for the week. Cunners nre selling fairly well, though hardly as well as they were a few days ago. The feeder markot -was in good shape, this morning so fnr as the choice heavy kinds were concerned nnd changed hands at Just about steady prices. Anything not answer ing to that description was dull nnd lower, nnd tho common light stuff was al most unsalable. Buyers do not want that kind of stuff, as there Is no demand from the country for it, and for that reason com mission men are advising shippers to hold that class of stock back until later In the season. The western beef cattle of good quality sold satisfactorily, the same as the corn fed steers, at steady tor stronger prices. The feeling on anything else except the very best grades was lower. Tho market on the medium grade cows arid heifers was in' bad shape and way lower than It was a week ugo. Good heavy feeders sold readily at about steady prices, but tha common Unlit stuff was very dull and lower. Representative sales: BEEF STEERS. No. Av. l'r. No. Av.

The markot opened, however, a. little better than yesterday's general market, sales ranging strong to a shade higher or about like yesterday's close. The bulk of tht- boss went at 3.15ff5.17W, with 3.S5 for a top, which was paid for n prlmo load of hoavy walghts. Tho market was fairly actlvo on tho start, but an packers filled their more urgent orders they became indifferent nnd bids eased off a little nnd they tried to buy what was left nt about whero they did yesterday. Sellers were not willing to make the concession and as n result it was rather slow. Tho last end of the mnrket was very mean nnd lower nnd a number of .sales wero made at J5J2H. Packers did not seem to want the lato arrivals and at 'a lato hour a number of loads wero unsold. Representative sales: No. Av. Bh. Pr. No. Av. Sh.
