Betlii'mg Canwi Wheat to Blnmp on
Board of Trade,
CORN IS WEAK, OATS DROP NEAR CLOSE
Provisions Hole Firm Till late
Day. Wkn Grajaa nprM,
Caoslaa; Some Prodocte
to Drop.
CH10AOO, July 8 The sentiment In the
Wheat pit wi again bullish and higher
rlcea ruled tho greater parly of the day,
Vv.t realising late In the session caused a
reaction, tirptember closing i'Ac lower;
jfctptember corn wm down 97o. oata were
ott 'Si) Sic and provisions closed from 6c
lower to l'Wc higher. ...
More favorable weather In the north
weit caused an easier feeling In wheat at
the start. September being Wc to H'SVs
lower at 7t7(f71c, and there wm comdd
erable liquidation by commission houses
early In u-e day. A good demand devel
oped on ine decline, due. to the milllsn
character of the news from the southwest,
where threshing la now In progress, to the
effect that the yield Is very unsatisfactory.
There waa liberal buying fro. thai !'!r
tex as from the northwest, and the market
became decidedly atrong toward the noon
hour, Heptember advancing to 78Ve. The
weakness In corn caused considerable liqui
dation late In the day and all of the gain
was lost, September closing Wit.o lower
at 77VtC Clearances of wheat and flour
were equal to ltft.Cno lu. 1'rlmary receipt
were iOw.lxiu bu., against 4M,mW bu. a year
ago. Minneapolis and Duluth reported re
ceipts of 13i cars, which, with local re
celpta of 18 cars, none of contract grade,
made total receipts for the three points of
Ul car, against 100 last week and 268 cars
a, year ago.
Soiling by large Interests caused weakness
In corn early In the day and although the
late market waa steadier, the close was
about the bottom point of the day. la
vorable weather reports were the principal
bear factors. September sold between BlVic
and l'ic, and closed (&c lower at 61c.
local receipts were 216 care, 11 of contract
grade.
Oata were rather quiet. There was some
profit taking by longs, hut the offerings
were readily taken by local traders and
the market ruled fairly steady until late
In the day, when the decline in other
grains caused a reaction. September
c ooed V'tc lower at 34c, after selling
between 34V3 and 3u',4ti36'V5. Local re
ceipts were 81 cars.
Provisions were firm the greater part of the
day, the feature of trading being the buy
ing of ribs bv eommlHslon houses who
were credited with acting for a leading
packer. Offerings were light. The late
weakness In grains had a depressing Intlu
ence and much of the gain was lost, Sep
tember pork closing 5c lower at lla.4.-., Sep
tember lard a shade lower at tX.Wfe8.12Vt,
while ribs were 17Vtc higher at 8X70.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: wheat,
23 ears; corn, 270 cars; oats, 130 cars; hogs,
head.

the subsequent relapse was Into such a
complete stagnation that the dealings for
the day dropped back to about the low re
cord level for the year. In the light of
this morning's developments yesterday's
late tlrlve at United States Steel stocks
seemed to have no other purposo than to
provide a better vantage ground for an up
ward atart. The statement of the corpora
tions earning for the quarter Just passed
with Its decrease of over $1.2o0,0u0 from the
corresponding quarter of last year, was no
worse than hnd been expected and the
slight Increases reported In the June esti
mated earnings compared with June earn
ings of last year was regarded as a favor
able feature. The common and preferred
stocks were lifted about a point on the
score of this showing. In the active rail
road list St. Paul and Missouri Paciflo was
the only stocks to gain as much aa this.
The further engagement of $1,500,000 gold
for export and the early sharp rally In the
cotton market seemed to have no effect in
checking the rise In stocks. It was after
cotton had reacted that the unresponsive
ness of the stock market to the sti'nulatlon
of light professional buying was perceived.
Prices thereupon sagged off and the whole
market fell back Into Its rut of stagnation.
Reports have been current for several days
that Insiders were buying Erie stocks on
the certainty that the directors today
would advance the first preferred dividend
to 4 per cent and declare a 2 per cent on
the second preferred. Credulous traders
who have followed this "inside" buying
learned today on Inquiry that no directors
meeting Is In contemplation for two weeks.
The Incident Is characteristic of the pres
ent market, but as far as can be Judged
from the resulting movement in the stocks,
these rumors have done no great harm nor
conferred any great benefit on anybody.
A Hurry In the cotton market Is regarded
as a natural incident In the process of set
tlement to a normal basis In that market,
but until the settlement is completed the
expected benefits to the financial and gen
eral business structure are not likely to
become evident. The favorable crop
weather was offset by the impressive "flrm-
fiess in the wheat market and the profit
tiklng reaction In corn did not entirely re
lieve the fear that the government crop re-
fiort due on Friday will make an unpromls
ng showing for that crop. Further weak
ness In lnternatlonnl mercantile marine on
the curb helped to disturb sentiment. There
was also a lurther slump in standard rope
and the twine Issues, but a pretty effectual
recovery followed. New York exclnge at
Chicago declined 20 points to 30 cents dis
counts. The disposition at that center to
recall funds and the complete cessation of
any stock market Inquiry from that source
gives rise to some troubled surmise In
Wall street circles. It Is significant of the
prevailing dullness of business that many
stock brokerage houses are largely reducing
their clerical forces. Active railroad bonds
were pretty steady, but high grade Inactive
Issues are settling to a lower price ImBls.
The New York Central general mortgage
3s which sold last week as low as par
for the first time In their history, sold to
day at 87. Total sales par value, $1,115,000.
United States bonds were all unchanged
on the last call.

NEW TORK. July 8 -COTTON Opened
firm at an advance of 7flin points, and dur
ing the entire session ruled nervous and ir
regular. At the beginning It looked as If
the bulls had turned the table on the Wall
street contingent and were to have all the
best of It. The cables were considerably
better than expected, and Immediately fol
lowing the opening prices here were forced
still further upwards, gaining another 4 to
13 points under a renewal of the covering
noted yesterday afternoon and fresh bull
support. The bulls were evidently making
a strong effort to re-establish their position
but they were met with determined sell
ing on the part of their opponents, and
after August had reached 11.4)tc, September,
10.59c; October, 10 6Hc, and December, 8 4c,
the bears sold very aggressively, carrying
prices downward 11 to u points from the
bept of the morning. The bulls bought more
vigorously and sales were forced back to
tho opening level. Right after midday
there was a sudden burst of bearish ac
tivity that forced prices down to the lowest
riolnt of the session, the general list show
ng a net loss of from 6 to H points on the
active months. But again the bulls came
to the support of values, as the selling
diminished, and brought about a partial
reaction, only to meet with further bear
pressure, which In turn gave way Just be
fore the close to active support, supposed
to orlginnte with the New Orleans pool,
which caused the market to turn firm
again. The close was firm, a little below
tho opening, but still showing a net gain
for the day of 3 to 13 points. Sales futures
were estimated to 300.000 bales. The decline
following Initial advance was encouraged
by the reaction In Liverpool, favorable cli
matic conditions and a full movement, while
the bulls were aided by reports, which were
rather unsatisfactory crop reports, includ
ing damage reports from boll weevil In
Texas.

CATTLE There was a much smaller run
of uattlo here today than was generally
anticipated, and aa packers all haa to have
a few cattle the market ruled active and
higher, everything being disposed of In
good season.
The quality of the beef steers on sale
today was not up to the usual standard,
and as a result the market on paper docs
not show the advance. The market, thouuh.
was active and safely a dime higher than
yesterday. Everything changed hands
about as rapidly us ottered and as .receipts
were very light for this time of the week
the pens were cleared at an early hour.
Owing to tr.e scarcity of choice grades the
less desirable kinds wold to better ad
vantage than they would otherwise.
The cow market was again very uneven.
Anything decent In the way of cornfeds
sold readily at an advances of StTilOc, but
when It came to the graasers it was a
different proposition. Salesmen say that It
Is nothing at all uncommon for buyers to
vary fully a quarter In their bids on the
same bunch of stuff, and as a result It is
hard to quote the market. That, however.
Is always the case at this lime of the
year before grassers ure In good condition.
Aa a general thing the market today was
probably about steady with yesterday, but
trading was slow.
Bulls, veal calves nnd stags did not show
much change from yesterday. The market
was rather slow and prices no more than
steady.
There were more stockors and feeders on
sale this morning than usual, but the prices
paid looked about steady with those in
force all this week. 'The demand has been
very limited, but supplies have not been
heavy enough to break prices to any extent
since the close of lust week. Representative
sales:

many to meet the requirements of local
puckers. Owing to a break In prices al
other points, however, buyers wre able to
ret their droves for less money nere aiso.
The market opened a good dime lower mr d
the hogs Bool, begin to move toward the
scales. There was very llt1e change from
start to finish and everything was out of
first hands by the middle or the forenoon.
Heavy hogs suffered fully ss much as the
lighter weights, and In fact the top price
was paid for a load that only weighed 222
pounds. The buik of the sales went nt
