CHICAGO, Auk. 0. In the nbscnce of
changoH In the crop situation the grain
markets were rather narrow today, clon
ing steady, wheat a nhau lip, corn un
changed and oats U'ttc higher for Septem
ber dellveri. . , ....
Provisions closed unchanged to i'4o lower
than yesterday. Traders wen; Inclined to
limit their trade.
Then. wnH but 1 tt o outside Interest In
the market, while news or Influence was
about evenly divided between the bulb and
beam. A narrow range or prices was the
result of this situation. The market opened
easy In sympathy with Liverpool, Scptein-
'bcr Uc lower to unchanged at "OVdiUvv.
Kear that the northwestern crop would
.be injured by liciivy rains, together with
heavy seaboard clearances, caused nn ' arly
rall to 71'dc. There were plenty of Halter
ing prospects neiu oui in letters ami iiu-k-'sages
from farmers. and agents In the coin
try, however, anil September soon worked
back to 70Hc. hater a rally to 7frV'c'K-'
occurred, helped by the fact that :il car
loads were reported taken for export, reel
ing was steady at the close, September
being n shade over yesterday at 70,,fi i'i-V1.
Heabonrd clearances In wheat anil Hour
were equal to I,ll5,un0 bushels, while pri
mary receipts were 1,112,000 bushels, com
pared with 1,4X1,001) last year. Northwest
reported 162 cars, against 235 a year ago.
Local receipts were 1ST cars, 33 of contract
grade. Argentine shipments lust week ag
gregated ."KW.noi) bushels, compared with .81.
m bushels for the corresponding week of
1900.
While corn was at times moderately ac
tive It was a local market, with the gen
eral speculative ntmosphcrc dull. As In
wheat Oils was due largely to a desire to
nwalt the verdict of the Agricultural tie
1'artment'H crop bulletin, expected tomor
row. There was very little country buying
while local people wen; disinclined to tell.
Snow's forecast of the government report
stating that It would probably show a con
dition of tii or perhaps SO per cent, which
would be the lowest condition ever re
ported, was a potentdnlUeiiei! In sustaining
prices, although the usual crop damage
stories were received from the corn belt.
Receipts were 2 ears. September sold be
tween fiHic and fAfSMie and closed un
changed at B7'c.
Oats were dull, but Independently firm on
triiylng by clevntor Interests and traders
ordinarily busy with hog products. The
volume of trade was light, however, and
speculation offered no features of Interest.
September sold between 35c and ..Vhc and
closeil ',i-?fic higher at SS'.&v. Receipts were
271 cars.
1'rovlslons were dull. The market, how
ever, ruled steady on purchases of lard by
a local packer. A slight recession of prices
followed the competition of this buying, but
the close was steady. September pork "i.je
higher at J13.W, September lard a shade tip
ut JK.fi2HflS.ii5 and September ribs un
changed nt J7.77W.
Estimated receipts tomorrow: Wheat, 210
cars; corn, 130 cars; oats, 110 cars; hogs, 16,
000 head.

Weekly Hcvlcw of Trade tomorrow will

There Is no complaint from nny part of
the country over the volume of current
distribution of merchandise and what hesi
tation Is observed In general trade Is chlelly
due to the uncertainty as to the duration
of the labor troubles In the steel manufac
ture. Cotton productions continue good, better
weather has helped the agricultural classes.
Monev Is ea' Hid stocks of merchandise
carrle'd are not above the average for this
season of the year, particularly In the west
atidinouthwest. Hcllcf Is felt In all depart
menta of the Iron and steel Industry, now
that uncertainty is ended and the position
of the contestants made clear. Now the
Issue must be determined permanently and
a settled condition will greatly facilitate
operations. Structural, wire and plate mills
are not affected, nnd the production of rails
wilt not be materially curtailed. Supplies
of, bars nnd tubes will be restricted, and
quotations In these lines tend to follow the
advance already secured for sheets nnd

chasers of many forms of llntsbed steel
are showing much eagerness to place con
tracts, while, on the other hand, pig Iron
Is In les request.
Having no further ammunition In hcut
and drouth reports for hoisting prices,
speculators have turned suddenly to the
other extreme and demonstrate that early
frosts threaten all late planted corn. The
result has been ,a quotation at this city
of mre thnn 00 cents all the week nnd
the prnctlcal elimination of exporters fron.
domestic markets. A healthy demand from
donystlc millers and phenomenal Atlnntlo
experts give strength to prices of wheat.
As the season advances It becomes morn
apparent that foreign crop losses will
necessitate unprecedented shipments from
the United States and with the settle
ment of the strike on the Pnelllc coast
there will be n movement of great magni
tude. Eastern showmnkcrs find conditions favor
nble. while reports from the west arc more
encouraging. Orders from the drouth
nfTcctcd regions are not countermanded and
early cancellations are being restored.
i.eatner is steaiiy and no alteration in
prices Is anticipated.
Prospects continue to Improve In the mar
ket for woolen goods, nnd as the manu
facture enjoys greater activity prices for
raw material nre hardening,
Little changes nre reported In actual
business, but there Is n growing disposition
to hold for the better terms that muny In
the trade consider Inevltnble. Cotton aoods
nre quiet and weak.

NEW YORK, Aug. 9. Bradstrect's Finan

Strength and speculative confidence reap
peared after the middle of the week, ac
companied by nn Increase In the activity.
The change In this respect wns tho more
striking becnuse the week opened with a
depressed feeling In the Stock exchange
circles.
Bearish feelings predominated when tho
market opened Monday and there was
heavy selling for both long and short In
the steel stocks, Nevertheless, after a
time It wns seen thnt tho I'ntted Steel
stocks were receiving powerful support.
about 40 for tho common and below 9o for
the preferred.
Tho steel slocks hardened and rum.irs
that there were renewed prospects of a
settlement caused sham advances In Fnlted
I mates meet snares, tne common rising
to I
43 nnd the preferred to 92. This would have
naturally caused sharp advances In United
Slates Steel to cover shorts, and In the
general market, but the railroad list was
also lulliienced In a bullish way by Impor
tant factors. The chief of these was the
better View the street takfs of the corn
crop situation. Actual improvement In the
corn outlodk Is on the whole slight. On
the other hand the favorable conditions In
regard to wheat have assumed greater
prominence and the fact Insisted on that
the west and its railroads nre not entirely
dependent on the corn crop for prosperity
Is accorded due weight.

IliK Hour Is Benched.
NEW YOHK, Aug. 9-From ft condition
of decided strength In the early denllnga
the market began to show an exhaustion of
the buying power nnd prices declined glnd
ually until tho final hour, when there was
an effective bear drive against the grain
carrying roads. This was made on the be
lief that the government report to be Issued
tomorrow would reflect greater damage
than current expectations. This supposition
was also effectually backed Up by the esti
mate of a recognized uxpert who predicted
n possible change for wheat of 7a
per cent and corn M. These nvir
ages were given some credence by
bear traders and they promptly put
out lnrge amounts of stocks which brought
about uecllnes from the highest prices of
the day of from 1 to 2 In the principal
grain-carrying roads, with St, Paul the
chief sufferer. The gennral decline wns ma
terially assisted uy a tirop or t points 111
People's Oas on reports of complications
with the Chicago city authorities. United
States Steel stocks contributed but little
novelty to the duy's dealings and moved
within a range of 1 point. Early Improve
ments of "Si nnd si per cent respectively for
the common nnd preferred were wiped out
nnd they closed HJiH per cent lower. Ho
ports of control by the Gould Interests of
Mexican rntlroads promoted a good demnnd

The forecast of the bank statement Indi

Interior movement nnd operations with the
subtrensury of $2,341,610. Some surprise was
expressed at the gain of only J474.WO on sub
trensury account by the banks In view of
the disbursement for pensions and Interest
In nddltloii to the payments alone of $2,149,
) gold on Pacific coast transfers. The
payment of tho United States Steel pre
ferred dividend of J8,863,2S4 may cause some
unexpected changes in the principal Items
of tomorrow's bank statement. Sterling ex

hension was displayed as to tho likelihood
of early exports of gold. Demand bills were
steady nt the closo nt JI.S7ft, tho day's reac

CATTLE There was a light run of cat
tle hero todny and as the local demand wns
In good shnpo prices on the better grndes
of fat cnttlo improved and tho mnrket ruled
active from start to finish.
It was evident this morning that packers
were anxious for good to choice beef steers
and as u result sellers held their cattle
nt strong to a dime higher prices than they
sold for yesterday nnd packers paid tho ad
vance. Cattle that wore not strictly choice
but still In fairly good condition sold as
high ns J5.65. The commoner grades nlso
sold higher today owing to the fact that
thero were not enough of the good kinds to
fill packers' orders
Receipts Included about ten cars of cows
and heifers nnd while the market was not
very actlvo Just about steady prices wcro
paid and most everything wns disposed of
In good season. Sellers in some cases
thought they had a hard time In getting
steady prices, but finally sold out at a satis
factory figure.
There wns no particular chango noticeable
In the market on bulls, cnlves and stags.
There were not many stockerB and feed
ers In tho ynrds today nnd good lightweight
yearlings sold at good strong prices. Heavy
Hturf. however, is ncttlected and the demnnd
from the country Is very light for that class
of sturr. Representative saies:
