CHICAGO, Aug. 4. Sensational reports of damage by rust to spring wheat caused Intense excitement today on the Hoard of Trade, resulting In a sharp advance In prices. At one time the September de livery wsa up 31j.')7c, compared with the lowest figures of the day. The market closed almost at the top, September show ing a net gain of lm'ir. over last nUhfs quotations. Other cereals were effected by tho strength of wheat, corn closing at an advance of an even cent. Oats are up Wqc. Provlslona show a gain of 7V4c to 124c. At the opening the wheat market ex hibited additional weakness, the Septem ber option being down S,'de to 'Mile, at Mc to Mc. The decline was due to an absence or any additional damage reports from the northwest and to a drop of Tc In whent at quotations at Liverpool. The early declrne waa entirely overcome and the big additional advance followed rap Idly, the mHrket reaching the highest point so far touched by the September delivery, that option selling at 77l?W77Hc. a gain of HWSc from the low figure of the day. Trading continued active the remainder of the session, the market closing practically at the top with September at 97,c. Clear ances of wheat and flour were equal to 7i.'.ti bushels. Primary rec(lpts, 808,000 bushels, compared with 452.000 bushels a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chi cago reported receipts of 21:6 cars, against 20 last week and 209 a year ago. An active demand for corn developed resulting In an advance of 2 cents in the September delivery. During the last hour tho market held firm, the close being nt the top. September opened Wtc. to V o lower, at SltiSlVio, sold between 607aC and 527c and closed at 52t'"27,sc. IxkaI receipts wete 221 cars, with li of contract grade. Similar to other grains, oats opened easier. Tie market closed at practically the high point. September opened a shade to lower, at 33c to 34c, sold be tween 33fi3.1c and 341434c and closed at M'ic. Local receipts were 208 ears. Buying by packers and for foreign ac count caused a firm lone In provisions. At the start the market was a trifle raster, as a result of selling by pit traders, but with the strength of grain n firmer feeling developed. September pork closed with a gain of 112.5012.96. Lard was up 6c at $7.50. Rlba were 7Hc higher at $7.70. Estimated receipts tomorrow: Wheat, 101 cars; corn, 245 cars; oats, 216 curs; hogs, 11,000 head.

Reporta af damage "are con flicting. Report of most serious damage: comes from South Dakota, and some parts Of Minnesota. Black rust Is represented to J have done the harm, una rrom its excep tional nature It la not as easily detected ua red rust. Some very consul vative ets vator men give so much credence to the reports as to believe thai the crop of South Dakota and western Minnesota will be seriously below the estimate of ton days ago. On the other hand, our lata re ports from South Dakota inlnlmlxe the effect of rust and hold that no greut Im pairment has resulted. That the damage has been at least greatly exaggerated is not hard to believe. In North Dakota and northern Minnesota wheat, while late, has mado good progress and the outlook Is la vorable. Of course, early froet would do great damage. I'rice Current. Winter wheat Indications are practically unchanged. Considerable vhrlveled grain and rust In various spring wheat sections awakens apprehension of Injury. Corn continues promise of a large crop, but various locallllts need moisture soon In or der to avert' damage. Srala Markets L:ier Here.

WHEAT ALSO HAS A BEARING ON STOCKS Railroad Seearltles Affect Speculative Sentiment Favorably and Indi cates Coafldeae la a B e rival of Business. NEW TORK, Aug. 4.-The brilliant pros pect for the cotton crop, as revealed by yesterday's government estlmnte was the dominant Influence In the stock market today, but this waned somewhat In the course of the session. This was psrtly due to the suggestive price of cotlon Itself, which served to cause misgivings of dam age to the crop since the date of the gov ernment estimate and partly to the excited movement which developed In the wheat market. The latter waa due to the receipt of alarmist reports from the northwest ns to the extent of the damage to the spring crop, which served to offset the promise of the cotton crop. The decline In esti mates of the whoat crop also detracts from the prospective advantage of an unusually good foreign demand. Relief In poor for eign crop prospects plays a large part In the present strength of wheat, but the amount of the exportable surplus shrinks materially with the later estimates of our wheat crop. It la very notable also that foreign demand for wheat is not Inclined to follow the market to the higher price levels here. The upward bound In wheat quickly af fected the stock market and that and the disposition to take profits sffected the cotto:i stocks as well. The effect of the maintenance of tho Erie first preferred dividend had been discounted yesterday before Its declaration. The action Is of good effect on speculative sentiment, how ever, as an Index of confidence In business revival, which It is felt must be In sight If the declaration is to be Justified. The report of a large purchase of pig Iron led to some realising In the Iron and steel stocks. The fact that the dividend will be deducted from United States Steel pre ferred on Saturday served to recall the heavy selling which followed the deduction of the Ir-.st dividend nnd gnve an uncertain tono to that Influential stock. Some depres s'on was caused by the apparently au thorized ndmlssfon that the efforts to ar range for the distribution of the amounts of the dividends to which northern securi ties stock holders are entitled hns been abandoned. Iibor Interest In the local building trades kept attention on that branch of Industry. Sterling exchange dropped awny from the gold export point. The weekly statement of the Bank of England showed thnt institution to be still losing gold and the same Is true of the Bank of France. The expectation of addi tional borrowing by the government atlff ened the London money market again. St. Paul's statement of June earnings was ronr sldcred favorable and caused a recovery In that stock, but was of feeble effect on the general list. The closing was Inani mate, but fairly steady. Bonds were firm. Total snlcs, par value, 82,0o0.0')0. United States bonds were un changed on cnll.
