through Van Lorn. It la rumored that
tha Kenny people are In on a large por
tion of the shortage In thla market.
On conflicting reports regarding the crop
damage In the wheat and corn belt, the
market thla morning opened at about yes
terday'a clualng prices, foreign cablea were
from 'td to Sd lower. Prices again bub
bled fur tha moat part and the general
tone at tha close waa (or a continuation
of a wild market.
Tha weather map allowed local ralna
throughout the harvest belt, but there were
o many conflicting report that the specu
lative Interests wi re undecided as to what
to do. Later In tha session on targe buying
ordera from abroad and from the southwest
the market Armed up and aold from "rio to
o above the close of last night.
The wheat market la still firm und atrong
and with any further damage reports front
Kansna or the southwest gralni are likely
to sell considerably higher.
The market continues to be of the
weather sort. Reports are received here
from abroad Argentine, Russia oiid bug
land which continue to estimate a large
ahortage. These reports are also conflicting
and until more definite news can be had the
market will likely continue, exoited and
wild.
The corn market opened at about a
quarter of a cent under last night a close,
In sympathy with the decline In wheat,
which came after a firm opening. Home
favorable report aa . to the growing crop
In Iowa and Nebraska showed thslr effect
In bearing the market. Reports from Iowa
atate that the condition of the growing
crop In that state la much Improved? Later
In the day the matkat firmed up to above
laat night's cloae. In sympathy with tne
strength In wheat and on covering by
Urge elevator lntereata, who took in their
hedges In July, which caused that option
to aell at a premium over September. The
corn market continued strong throughout
the session. On the Omaha market the
trade In futures waa light, owing to tha
f reat number of conflicting reports aa to
he growing crops. Wheat Is In good de
mand here for choice grades, as la also
corn. The receipts continue to run light
and probably will be so for a week or ten
flays at least, aa fanners are too buay In
the fields to deliver corn at country sta
tions. The range of prices on the Omaha mar

NEW YORK. July 16.-The decision of
Juuge ' Braaioru liandea down at 1 teuton
toaay In the Noitnern Securities csu
pioved 01! explosive effect on the stocks of
L'nlon I'ucmc, Southern Pacific and iMot.h
crii becurluea. In spite ot tue laiga pre
liminary speculation wnkh has been going
on in thooe stocks most ot the wee 111
anticipation of tnia decision. The violent
tried of the decision Is toe more note
worthy, aa its general tenor aa well was
pretty accurately foretold, in the geneial
market the effect was more In aeo.dancs
with normal expectation, the speculation
commg to a paut-e after an animated move
ment to takti proiHa. southern I'acnlc and
Ciilon r"nc. lie abo made a spitsmoulu Jump
on the first announcement of tne decision,
wavering unuer a Hood ot profit-taking of
ferings. But the two stocks tnen as.umed
an aggressive movement and galvanised
the general market into activity agjln.
According to piecedent vie we of tne dif
ferent phases of tnls litigation, the effect
might oe expected to diaoourage specula
tion. Without any determination of the
vital points at Issue In the contentions,
the result Is to leave the whole contro
versy still open, while the financial paraly
sis of the corporation, both as to receiving
dividends from the constituent companies
and distributing to their own stockholders,
is asHured of a prolongation only to be
terminated by the definite settlement of
the quarrel. The market during tne morn
ing was of the same kind as that for pome
days past, although the expectation of the
Northern Securities decision waa an influ
ence then. Ontario & Western and the
subsidiary Pennsylvania slocks, notably
Norlolk Western, wre conspicuous, and
the cotton carriers were strong, prelim
inary estimates of the currency movement
firomlsed enormous accumulation of cash
n the banks, subtreaaury opera tloni, new

ment of currency on balance with the In
terior all contributing liberal proportions
In a promised gain of over $10.0j0,i)0.
An advance In tho price of copper did not
save Amalgamated Copper from realliltig.
Tnlon Pacific's rise to 97 snd Southern

CATTLE A few odds and ends arnveil
this morning. Conditions remain un
changed. Puckers picked up the few beef
steers In sight at satlslactory prices, but
the demand, of course, Is very uncertain.
A few cows and heifers also sold to
killers at nominally steady figures. Packers
i'.avo token care of lb tew arrivals the
past few d.iya at prices fairly satisfactory,
considering present conditions.
There were no freah urrlvals of conse
quence In tne leeder division and very few
in regular traders' hands. 1 lie market,
while quiet, Ui nominally unchanged at
current quotations,
HOGS For the first time since Tuesday
packers took on u few hogs, and this, with
a small shipping inquiry lor selected lots,
constituted today's demand. Swift pur
chaMed a few loads of good medium
weights around 35.10, while shippers sorted
up a few lights at around 35.16iijn.20. These
prices are only a shade lower than yester
day. Packing grades were a drug on the mar
ket and there waa practically no sale lor
heavy stuff.

NEW YORK. July 15.-R. G. Dun A Co.'S
Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will
:
iiade conditions were gradually becom
ing more noinial alter tne conclusion of
political conventions, when a new disturb
ing lai tor apiwareu In the all Ike of pack
Ins liuu.ee ei,i(iu)cs mid allied ira.i. s. This
einiitiued prices of meats aim added many
thousands 10 ihe aireauy large amiy of
tmeniplii) ed, M'eukenlug the purchasing
power ot the pvop.e still iiinnar. Aside
irom tnls unlavoiaole develupment tne
news of the week contained much sncour
Hiiement. Clop prospects Improved and the
general level ot prices for nrm products
promises a huge return to sai icullurlsts,
ivl.lcli menus better tuiainess for all Indus
tries. Confidence grows with the crops, rotalleis
showing more disposition to prepaie lor
the future ns the season advances, with no
serious setback to the farms. A tew man
ufacturing lines ure active, although there
Is still much Idleness at the shops nnd
mills, and the pig Iron output for July
will be smaller man any recent month.
Reports Ol increased plans for erection of
buildings are not accompanied by nny note
worthy expuiixion In demand tor structural
materials as et. It. l. way earnlnga lor
the first week of July are only per cent
lower than last year and foreign trade at
this port showed goJna of 8i's3,26 In ex
ports and tl,(,724 In lmpxits, ns com
pared With the corresponding week a year
ago.
Textiles Are Irregular.
Textile manufacturing plants are opera
ting aomewhat Irregularly, regulation ot
wi'ges by Fall Rlvor concerns having been
dei lord upon, and this may result irt the
aener.il resumption so greatly desired. In
the primary market for cotton goods theia
I a a disposition to maintain quotations,
Kellers declining to consider bids below the
level recently reached. Orders ate still
limited to small quantities for quirk de
livery. Export buying has sgsln provided
the best feature of the market, stocks of
heavy sheetings and drills being fairly
well cleaned up. In woolen gooda ilia week
has brought the opening up of new lines of
medium grade men's wear at about last
year's prices. This fact and some resump
tion of clothing factories combined to In
crease sale.. putting this Industry in a
better position than other textiles.
Footwear markets nre more active, many
western buyers having appeared In Boston,
and a heavy volume of supplementary or
ders have been placed. Tanners who srs
short of hides are u 11 11 bin to secure deliv
eries on account of the strike, and the sit
uation threatens to become serious If the
struggle la prolonged. This Influence Is cal
culated to ndvanre the hide market.

TRADE: A WAITING CROP RKPOHTS
Railroad Show Increased Famines,
bnt Cnttle Shipments Are Checked.
NEW YORK, July 15. Bradstrcet's to
morrow will say:
Diverse movements In trades, Industry
and speculation give an Irregular appear
ance to the general business situation. Dis
tributive trade and Industry is still qulst
and even dull, awaiting clearer views of
tho crop outturn. Damage to the winter
wheat crop by heavy rains Is sdmltted,
though alleged to be exaggerated. Dlsor-
Sunlzation In the meat slaughtering In
ustry has followed a strike, which If not
settled, as now seems likely, contains muoh
power for evil. All meat prices have been
advanced and cattle shipments checked.
Railway gross earnings for the fiscal year
will show an lncreaae over the best pre
vious years, but net results are less clearly
defined with the question whether an In
crease or decrease will be shown still in
doubt.
The general undertone Is one of confi
dence, good results being looked for by the
business world from an expected laige vol
ume of fall trade. Viewed geograpnlcally
the south seems easily to have the best
outlook, the cotton crop having progressed
so far with little or no drawbacks except
the original lateness of the spring, Tha
outlook is for an Immense cotton crop.
The southern peach crop this year has
been enormous and has sold at good prices.
Midsummer trade conditions nave domi
nated distributive markets. Collections the
country over are classed as little better
than slow. ,
Among the Industries the Iron trade nots
Increased quiet, production being scaled
down to meet receding consumption. Tho
only change to note la Increased firmness
nmnng southern producers who find tha
strike of coal miners Iq the Birmingham
district a strengthening feature. Finished
Croducts are quiet nnd even dull. Tho
oot and shoe Industry' Is rather quint nnd .
eastern shipments nre 7.6 per cent behind
a year ago. Leather manufacturers are be
ginning to purchase leather, which is firmer
and tends upward.
Rather mure was reported doing In soma
kinds of cotton goods this week, some
heavy export orders being reported at very
low prices, but ncnlnst this was a report
that Fall River manufacturers would make
n. further reduction In wages. The cotton
gonda aide of the mnrket has unquestion
ably been much Improved; Woolen goods
manufacturers have been free buyers of
raw material, the result being firmness all
along the line and a fractional advance In
prices. .
Foreign trade totals for the fiscal year
nre noxt to the largest ever reported. Im
ports are 3.6 per emit less than In 1003 and
the aggregate foreign trade Is 16 per cent
tinder thst of the flecnl year 1903. Cotlon
waa the sheet anchor ut our export trade,
while breadstuff shipmenta fell to a low
ebb. Exports of manufactured goods have,
however, exceeded all previous years.
