year ago.
Corn was rather dull and ruled weak
throughout tho latter part of the sesslnn.
Fine maturing wtather was the tactcr. The
nature in the trading was tne at lung of
Bnptember Against lloeiai country purcnanea
which caused a decline of over VsC In the
market. March received fair support from
commission houses, which helped to steady
prices. After eelllni; between ultyo and oi'-nc
September closed 'o lower. Local receipts
were Ml cars, with 47 of contract grade.
Oats wrre up a trifle at the start on a
fair demand from commission houses. The
general trnde, however, was dull and prices
oon eased off In sympathy with other
grains. The close was a trifle aasler, with
eptember off HitfVc after ranging between
237c and 34l4c. Local receipts were more
liberal at J)t2 cars.
Provisions moved up some at the out
set as a result of coveting by shorts, for
eigners doing most of the buying, lbs
mailer run of hogs and higher prices at
the yards also helped the advanee. But at
the higher prlcos liquidation set in and a
reaction set In. September pork cloned. 10c
lower. September lard was up tV87Vc at
fl.tVfcHI.V), and ribs were 10c lower at
17.40.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
80 cir; corn, 145 can; oats, 126 cars; hogs,
7,0OO head. .

prices, but that the day's market reflected
a feeling of confidence orer the future that
has not been shown lor a long time wns
plain-to be seen. The feeling was gener
ally based on the conviction that the neces
sary liquidation so far as It affected the
securities market has betn concluded, and
that tho financial conditions have been
greatly strengthened as a consequence. The
movement of Interior exchanges and ad
vices from Interior money markets gave
warning of the early approach of the de
mand upon New York for funds to move
the crops. This demand, however, seemed
to have lost its terrors. Foreign exchange
advanced again, and the price of gold was
rslsed again In the London market. Lon
don Is taking protective measures against
demands upon her old supply, and sold
stocks freely In New York, but this move
ment did not Impair the newly awnkened
confidence that with the outward move
ment of the crops New York will bo able
to command gold, owing to the heavy re
duction of our Indebtedness abroad during
the recent period of liquidation. In this
same connection the bulla on stocks made
much of the defeat by the Colombian gov
ernment of the Panama canal treaty. The
financing of the payment of $40,000,000 to
the Panama Canal company and of $10,000,
000 to the Colombian government, which
would have followed the adoption of the
treaty, has given Wall street much dis
quiet It Is supposed to have been a sub
ject of concern to the Treasury department
at Washington also-. It la summed up that
the freedom from obligation to secure ex
change for these amounts will facilitate
the Import of gold. The fear that the
Treasury department would be hampered
In any attempts to relieve the money mar
ket by the need of conserving resources
for .these payments Is also removed. The
larger political and commercial bearings
of the canal situation were not considered.
The pavment Into the local money chan
nels of $1,69(1,000, mnde available by tho de
posit of newly arrived Auotra'-lan gold with
the treasury authorities In Ban Francisco,
also had lbs favorable Influence on the
money and exchange situation. A decline
in corn and wheat were given favorable
Interpretations. although the weekly
weather bulletin was somewhat disquieting
as to the chances of an Important part of
the corn crop. Many of the day's move
ments ware attributed to market man
agers on behalf of controlling Interest In
the properties and the causes to Justify
them were subject of active surmise. The
Rock Island authorities were supposed to
be preparing for a favorable reception for
the new bond Issue. Old rumors of a
Southern Pacific dividend were revived.
Higher prices for copper and enlarged divi
dends on Amalgamated Copper were talked
of amongst the apeculators. Larger dlyl
AnAm foe eoftl carriers, both anthracite
and bituminous, owing to the large current
earnings, were widely discussed. These are
but examples 01 me leraprr ui ".j -
iL mr,A nnna of this talk gained any
authoritative confirmation. Small pur
chases of Inactive stocks caused wide ad
vances. Just as small sales caused violent
declines doring the period of extreme de
pression. The selling to take profits waa
unremitting, all day. but was well absorbed
until the final hour. Stock then seemed to
have passed on a large scale from strong
to weak hands, and the profit taking made
beavy Inroads tipon prices. Tho market
closed weak, without a rally.
Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value,
$2,600,000. United States bonds were un-

CATTLE There was another fairly lib
eral run of cattle here today, but the same
as yesterday, the bulk ot them were west
ern rangers. Other markets were quoted
lower this morning, and As a result packers
were Inclined to buy their supplies a little
lower, but' they failed to take off much
except on the cornfeds.
There were more cornfed steers on sale
this morning than Usual, about 40 cars
beinr Included In the recelDts. The cholo-
eat grades did not show much change, but
aside from those tne steers naa to sen
rls-ht close to a dime lower than yester
day. Salesmen were alew to take off that
much, and as a result trading was dull and
it was late before a clearance was maae.
The cow market showed very little change
from yesterday. Buyers all seemed to want
a few and the market opened with a little
moro life than was noticed yesterday, with
prices Just about steady. After the first
round or so trading was not quite as brisk,
but still the general market for desirable
grades was not rar irom cieaay witn yes
terday's sharp decline.
Bulls, veal calves and stags also sold In
about the same notches iney aid yester
dir.
.there was not an excessive run of feed
ers In slfiht And anything at all desirable
sold free.y at good steady prices. Of
oourse tho common stuff was more or less
neglected, the same as usual. The demand
from the country Is still Ulmted, as only
about 18 car loads were shipped out yes
terday, Aa mentioned above, a large proportion
of the receipts today consisted of western
rangers. The steers that were good enough
for killers certainly did not command any
more than steady prices. Packers did not
take hold with any too much life, and the
best that could be said of the market Is
that it waa slow but about steady. Range
cows, of which there were quite a few; sold
about steady, and stockers and feeders, If
at all desirable, sold freely at steady prices.

HOGS There waa not a heary run Ot
hogs here today for a Tuesday, but reports
from other points were not very favorable
to the selling Interests and as a result the
tendency of prices was downward. There
was a brisk demand, however, for light
weights and they sold steady to a nickel
higher than yesterday, as nigh as 86.40
being paid for a strlotly choice load aver
aging 199 pounds. The medium and mixed
hogs sold weak to a nickel lower, while tha
heavies were slow and cxglOo lower. There
was mere difference made today In the
trices paid for heavy and llahtwelirhts
than at any time thla year, there being a
spread of about 80c Heavy hogs sold
largely from 85.10 to 85.16, mixed and me
dium weights went largely from 86.16 to
86.20, while 'he lighter and choloer loada
sold all the way from 16.20 to 86.40. Trading
was not very brisk, as salesmen were alow
to take the prloea offered for the heavy
hogs.
The close of the market was certainly no
better. If anything It Waa A little weaker
on the heavy hogs, or nearly a dim lower
1 nan yesterday. Representative aaiest

SHEEP There were not aa manr sheen
and lambs on sale this morning as arrived
yesterday, but evidently there were -enough
to supply packers' requirements. The mar
ket was slow from start to finish on fat
stuff and . could safely be quoted 10&15o
lower than yesterday. Many of the trains
were again late In arriving and that also
helped to delay the msj-ket, so the day waa
well advanced bofore much stuff was dis
posed of.
1 ne aemana lor reeaers. though, was ac

able grades. Some sales, In fact, looked a
