ino excitement attending the culmlnnatlon
of the July wheat deal wan aa a drop In lha

of lha wheat pit, wired Omaha: "Not

on tha Board of Trade everybody In
Lwamped with ordera." And the action of
prices like the mercury on a hot August
naywas decidedly unusual. htahl ohl

Into that condition where hi point rluetua

Incidentally, wheat la getting f..'rly high
priced. A car of No. 4 wti.al aold In

Chicago. The agricultural element will
have an opportunity to engage in national
banking If thla thing kecpe on much longer
and Omaha will be fortunate enough
to have a new delegation of retired capital
ists residing within Its civic limits.
What brought about tho radical change
of front? I'robably more thun anyone or
anything else, the opinion of one June,
now traveling through the Uakotas and
who wired from Fargo: "I see no reason
to change my opinion or my estimates.
The damage done and doing la worse than
the estimates."
London startled the world with a drop
In consols of 1 1-lti. unusuul and exceptional.
A reason was given: England la going to

After the sensational advance there was

thla the demand was unabated and the

CHICAGO GRAIX AND I'ROVIftlOXS
Kentoree of the Trading; aad Closing
Prlcea oh Board of Trade.
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.

The crop Situation is not so favorable as
week ago, aa Impairment ha resulted
from rust. 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.

Cotton Exerts Strong Influence on the
Market.
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.

BOSTON, July 4 WOOL The market
here Is quiet thla week, most manufactur

sold enough of their new wools to make

Cai'X'l.uI There waa wnalai run o
cattie here tnis morning than arrived ye
terduy and supplies at otner points were
also, ieuxivratv. as a resuu Ine tendency ot
prices was upward, commiuaion men are
already beginning to warn tneir customers
against shipping 100 freely the tlrst ot next
week., They say a small increase over mis
week may be all rigut, but a neavy run
would have a very baa effect upon the mar
ket. iners were Just a few cart of corn-fed
steers on sale ana they changed hands
readuy enougn at prlcea ranging strong tu
a dime higher than yesterday. Common
klnus may not have shown much improve
ment. As hign as bo.io waa paid today for
tattle weighing 1,3) pounds, which is the
n, guest price of the wee to date. There
were quite a tew western grassers on aald
and tney changed nanus without much
trouble at steauy to strong prices.
The cow market waa in about the same
conultton It has been all the week. Prices
were very Irregular, some eaies being aoout
steady, while otnera were cunMueiauly
lower than yesterday, ana the meat um and
common atutf was almost unsalcaoie at
tuiy price. Shippers have been warned
time and time again to keep their common
cows at home unul packers begin to ojH-r-ate
their canning uepartments, but mill
a good many sucu cows arrive every uay,
for which mere is practically no uemand
whatever. 1
The demand for bulls showed n) Improve
ment touay and there waa no change in
prices. Veal calves auld in about the same
notches they have all the week.
There were less than a halt dozen leads
of stockers and feeoers in the yards, anu
as speculators wanted a few cattle, the
market held Just about steady. Repre

H( iGS Recelnts of hogs were aulte mod
erate thla morning at all points and aa a
result the tendency of prices was upward.
The market here opened 6U10c higher and
seemed to gain in strength until It was a
big dime higher. Trading was quit active
at the advance and all the early arrival
were out of first hands in good season.
Several trains were late in arriving, which
prevented an'early close. The bulk of the
heavy hogs sold from 85 00 to f6.o5, with
some of the commoner grades from f5.0o
down. The medium and mixed hogs sold
largely from 85.05 to f5.10 and choice I'ghts
from fu.10 to 85.16.
The close of the market was lust about
steadv so that the late arrivals sold In
practically the same notches as those that
came In earlier In the day. A good clear
ance waa made before noon. Representa
