VThaat ha reached a dsrMadly hlh prlca
In tha markst of the world and H b"arlns
to fhow BOtni hesitation, peculator bins
ready for rapid changes either way and
for fluctuations rather heavier th;in gen
erally aeen In tola cereal. The advance has
confirmed the opinion of the prophets of
short crops and foreign demand, but the
different bull Interest that have been re
sponsible, with weather and nature, In
advancing wheat i points in ten days
and 2nc from the low point of the hep
tember future, exhibit a little uncertainty
a to the future. The stories from the
Jjakntas and Minnesota continue enter
tainingly and emphatically of red and black
rust and crop shortness, but the advance
has allowed for much of this and there
re those who look for reactions, but every
decline will bring buying orders. Minne
apolis doesn't stand under moderate wheat
receipts aa well as Omaha does, and the
prices here are still relatively higher than
either our nearby competitors or Chicago,
It la still difficult to force wheat to yield
to pressure and the beara will have to
keep constantly at work and pay close at
tention to business to prevent the bulls
taking it sway from them. At the open
ing tills morning the trend was toward a
lower range, but the reooll was always
ready and many short sellers are unwilling
to go home without evening up their trades.

prove to be seriously damaged. North of

and 11 1 we grew an average wheat croo.
according to the government, of t5,0tiu,uuu
ir year, we exported an average during
he aaiiie years in round numbers of lhfi.Uuu.-
n bushels. We found ourselves at thu end
of this period with reserves so low that
cnsli wheal was Bulling In the vicinity of
tl a bushel In practliully every market in
this country. The outlook at present la
thought by very good people to be a total
crop of 125,0iO,Oi0 lens this year than tho
average realized the previous three years
for America. The latest advices would ap
pear to Indicate that Importing nations
woula require, If obtainable, at least, un

This Is the situation as It appears to us,
and If true makes conditions ucute Indeed,
that prices will rule high this year scorns
to us a foregone conclusion.

of long wneat was ottered for sale duilng
the first few minutes. While there wj
fair buying by southwestern houses and

to prevent a further decline, September
falling to 96c l.'ndrr an active demand

Large receipts of good grade grain with
a slow cash market caused weakness In
oats. Considerable long oats were offered
for sale, but the recent bull leaders fal ed

SEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS
Dealing Beach the Usual Midsummer
Dullness,
MOVEMENTS OF PRICES ARE SLUGGISH
Movement of Gold the Sonjeci of
Very I Ittle Dlspnssloa Onlnat to
Plethoric Condition of tho
Money Market.
NEW YORK. Aug. . There la little to
record of today's snort session of the Stock
exchange. Dealings ran down to the level
of midsummer dullness and the movement
of prices was so sluggish as to be entlrelif
Inconclusive ss to any sentiment over the
outlook for values to be expressed. The
uncertainty over the extent of damage to
the spring wheat was a continuing factor
and is expected to be until the publication
of the government report on next Wednes
day. '1 lie rally in the price on British
consols In London Is a favorable Influence
on securities markets. The outgo of gold
which has been Inaugurated Is the subject
of Interested discussion, but it is of little
effect, owing to the plethoric condition of
the money market. With the exception of
gains In some of the obscure specialties, the
price changes were confined to small frac
tions, mostly gains, and the closing was
firm. Total sales of bonds, pur value,
$1,145,000.
With the most brilliant prospects ever
recorded for a large and profitable cotton
crop and with reports In currency during
the week pointing to something like a
disaster to the year's wheat crop, the
dividend sentiment In the stock market Is
explained. The conalderatlon of the cotton
crop was prompted by the publication of
the government's estimate of the condi
tion on July 26 of 26 6 per cent of an esti
mated acreage of 32,O0u,O00. It Is natural
that the stocks of companies whose busi
ness Is connected with the cotton trafllc
should have been consp'euously strong In
the week's trading. Additional sympathetic
effect has been produced on the group by
the prosperous showing contained In the
annual report of the Southern railway and
by the action of the Central of Oeorgla
directors In declaring the first Interest dis
bursement ever allowed for the second
preferred income bonds of that company.
The prospect of a short crop of wheat
presents a sharp contrast. The heavy de.
crease in the exports of wheat for the last
fiscal year is evidence that last year's
small surplus available for export will be
materially cut down this year, leaving an
Important gap in the foreign commerce
of the country. The corn crop 1s still
looked to hopefully to eke out the deficiency
in our grain exports.
The week's advices Indicate some revival
In the Iron and steel trade and great im
portance Is attached to these. Large orders
were placed for pig Iron and the announce
ment of orders for 60,000 tons of sleel rails
for the H.irrlman system of railroads wss
of marked effect on the stocks of that
systetn and on the Iron nnd steel stocks.
Railroad officials assert that there Is some
Srowth of traffic on their lines and a
eclded Improvement of the business senti
ment In their territory as to future busi
ness revival, increases in net earnings
for June by the Pennsylvania system, the
Atchison and the St. Paul were accepted
as an Index of Improving conditions In
railroad finance.
Little attention has been paid to the
war news from the far east, except so
far as It has beeti a factor In the tightening
of the London money market and the with
drawal of gold from New York. The run
ning deficit in the government revenues also
keeps alive the possibility of a necossury
withdrawal of government deposits from
the banks.
The Investment demand In the bond mar
ket hns shrunk to small proportions, but
a good effect Is produced by the successful
marketing of several bond Issues to first
subscribers. United States bonds are un
changed on call for the week.

CATTLE There were not enough cattle
reported this morning to make a market.
There were quite a lew common cows in
th yard carried over from day to day,
for whlcn there Is practically no demana,
and very tew of them changed bandj
today. Most of the common cow that are
being aold go to speculators and not to
killer. For the week receipts are about
double the supply or last week, but 6,0uu
heap, short of tne same week ot last year.
In regard to shipping next weak commis
sion men advise considerable caution. It
doe not look now as though the market
Would stand any great Increase in receipt
the nret of the week at least, and what Is
shipped In should be of good quality. Com
mon cow and ateera should be kept at
bora by all mean, for pucker simply pick
out th batter grade, and then commission
men have to sell what Is left to speculators
or to anyone they can get to take them
off their hands, regardless of price. Ship
pers should keep in close touch with their
oommlssion firms and rely upon their ad
vice. Thia market Is In as good condition
a any la the country and snipper in this
territory will make a mistake to pass It by.
Ihe market on com-iea steers oi the
better grades Is very little different from
the close of last week, Monday's slump
havng been Just about regained. Common
kinds, though, are dull and a little lower
for the week. Cattle have aold this week
as high as $5.75, but etrlctly choice grades
would probably bring a little more. Fair
to good cattle fell from $5.00 to $5.50, and
the commoner grade from $4.25 to $4.85.
The market on western grass beef steers
has shown but little change all the week.
The better grade have met with ready sale
and common kinds are more or less neg
lected. As high as $6.10 waa paid for some
trlctly choice cattle, but the bulk of the
good to choice grades are quotable from
$4.00 to $4.60, fair to good $3.80 to $3.85, and
common kind from $3.25 down.'
Th cow market has been very Irregular
this. week, with th tendency of prices de
cidedly downward. As compared with
Wednesday of last week, the market Is
60jj7&o lower, the commoner kinds showiu
the greatest loss. Strictly choice grass
cows may be quoted from $3.00 to $3.25 and
something prime might bring a little more
than that. Corn-feds If good enough,
ought to sell up around $4.00, but few are
being offered. Fair to good cows are sell
ing from $2.00 to $2.76 and canners and cut
ters from $1.00 to $2.00. As mentioned
above. It Is almost Impossible to find a
buyer for common to medium cows, even
at these bargain counter prices, and for
that reason they should be kept at home.
Bull are also slow sale and. In fact, so
few of the common kinds have been sold
to packer of lat that It 1 practically
impossible to tell what they would bring
Choice corn-feds sell from $8.25 to $3 80
Veal calves are about steady for the week'
Receipt of stoukers and feeders have
been rather light most of the week, ao
that, although the demand was limited,
prices have lield about steady. Good to
choice grades may be quoted from $3 40 to
$3.70, fair to good $3.00 to $3.25. and the
commoner grades from $3.00 down. Repre

HOGS Receipts of hoga loday were about
I, 000 head heavier than yesterday, which
makes the supply for the week about 14,000
head heavier than last week, but 8,000 head
short of the corresponding; week of last
year.
The market opened with the demand In
fairly good shape for the light and medium
weight hogs and such kinds sold at Just
about steady prices with yesterday. The
medium and mixed loads sold largely from
$6.06 to $510 wl'h the choice lights from
$6.10 to $5.17. None seemed to be at nil
anxious for the heuvles and by the time
half of th total receipt had been dis
posed of packers seemed to have their
more urgent orders filled and the market
came to a standstill. For a time very little
boatness was transacted.
The weakness did not last any great
length of Urn and packers finally bought
up what was left at just about the same
prices a were paid early In the morning.
The heavy hogs sold largsly from $5 to
$5.05. The market today averages fully as
strong aa t did yesterday, but that la ac
counted for by the fact that there were
oine good lightweight on sale that both
shipper and packers wanted and they sold
at steady to strong prices In some cnans.
As high a $5 So waa paid for a load weigh
ing 167 pounds.
A compared with th close of last week
th market 1 about to lower on the aver
age. Representative sales: !

SHEKP There were three car of sheep
reported this morning and as packers
teemed to be In shape to handle a few
they changed hands at an early hour. Thd
Idaho wes and wethers that sold yester
day for $.V6S brought M.75 today, or a dime
hluher. There wns also a buncn of Ne
braska ewes on sale that brought $;! tl.
For the week receipts have been auout l.tKW
head heavier than for Iaa4 week, but as
compared with the same week of last year
the supply h.ts been less than a third a
large. Packers have handled the offerings
In quite satisfactory mai.rer and the week
Is closing with a good, strong tone to the
trade. It Is evident, however, that the
market will not stand any material In
crease In receipts the first or the week, and
commission men are advising their custo
mers to be cautious. The situation here
Is Just as good ns at other points, and
where a shipper wants to take, the risk of
marketlrg some of his stock, nothing will
be gained bv passing this market. The
safest plan will be for shippers to consult
their commission firm before sending In any
great quantity.
The feeder market has not changed much
during the week. There Is quit a demand
In sight and more feeders could have been
handled to advantage than were offered
this week.
