according to all dispatches from Minne
sota and the Dakota (lip runt and other
hal damaging Influences worked over
tlma yesterday anil all last wees.. There
ate many Who will be surprised if tne
hl clop is as oadiy tlamaged as re
ports would derm to Inuicaia, and there are
ethers cunildemly expecting even worse
than the tat tust are more than twice
told. Memories that are long rememoor
times and days when wheat was scarce
but enough aally fed out to break the
backs of the men standing; under Hi press
ing weight, and to these old-timers the
short talk at this season of the year Is
not of necessity unbiased and absolutely I
true. A man long on wheat sees one way!
and the short another. Just now the lontri
have their eyen especially WldO open, and
ven trie skeptic must admit that their Bids
of the story la awfully bad Indeed, that it
could not lie much worse and evidently the
market taken stock In' these reports, for
prices started soaring In the same old
way and the advances were more or less
sensational. A wire from Michigan told
a hard luck story from that fine wheat
state, predicting 25 per cent of a crop and
"chicken feed" at that. The same dispatch
told of millers' orders from all parts of
, the state for Missouri wheat, even from
points where the usual order wtts wheat
exportation and not buying.' In Minneap
olis the millers paid very high prices tor
the grain, Chicago shorts fell over each
other trying to get out even on .their de
ferred futures, and In Omaha the con
signees of wheat and other grains gathered
In prices that the conaignors did not ex
pect. If the Nebraska, farmer has the
. grain wheat, corn and oats the price
ought to tempt a reasonably, quick market
ing thereof, even though the Indications
Co point to ami higher figures, but it Is
sometimes hard to get the top and danger
ous to wait for It,
The advances of the dny were sensational
when plied upon the gains of over 13 cents
In the last few weeks. There appeared to
be nothing to stem the tide of bull news
and it continued to flood the private wires
right up to the tup of the bell. In the
Chicago market all future deliveries turned
he dollar mark and closed with the strong
est kind of a tone, although there was
coma little profit-taking at the advance and
at the extreme end of the senslon. New
Beptember wheat, which on Saturday was '
oft at 97o, was stronger than ever at
,$1.01; old September turned $1.02 and De
cember managed to moke a fractional im
provement on the dollar murk.
7 Corn did not share In the advance with
any spirit until In the last half hour, when
there was a rush of shorts and in almost
less time than it takes to tell it Beptember
turned 64c and December 60c, a gain of
nearly 2c Oats demonstrated that they
were in the list of cereals by a sharp frac
tional Improvement and by the good de
mand for immediate delivery.
Omaha received good carlot receipts and
better reported for tomorrow. There Is no
trouble getting fine prices and if the farm
ers will only send better quality. If they
.have it, Omaha will yield elegant returns.

Feptenilier wheat, which opened strong
with a gain of ViVc to qc ut ?i(971ic,
went to II in a succession of leaps, with
but momentary pause, when holders, satis
fied with their prollm, realised. Many sell
ers, however, and bears In the pit who have
been scoffing at the Increasing advices of
rust encroachments were soon In the big
rush for grain and carried the price of Sep
tember to $1.01 Vs. Dealings on a large scalo
toward the close checked the advance tem
porarily and caused a reaction to 9Jc, but

RUPTURE OF STEEL POOL THREATENED
Sagar One of the Commodities Which
Responds to Buoyant Reports
Regarding; the Frnlt
Crops.
NEW YORK, Aug. 3. Stocks proved un
sble to withstand the effect of the sensa
tional wheat market today, nlthoueh there
was steady resistance during the esrlv
part of the day. Danirer of a rupture of
the steel billet pool and sn open market
for finished ' steel products was another
shadow upon the market snd Its effect
upon United States steel preferred gave
It a strong sympathetic Influence In the
who list. There was some early disposi
tion manifest to make light of the al
leged harm io sprlns; wheat and to point
out a possible connection between many of
the alarming reports of disaster and the
furious speculation which Is going on In
the wheat market. There was no inclina
tion to belittle the seriousness of the sltus
tlon to the business future If the dimafte
reports should prove well grounded, but It
was urged that it was worth while , for
security holders to wait for the govern
ment estimate to be published On Wednes
day to secure Impartial and uncolored
Judgment on what harm has actually been
done to the spring wheat crop.
Metropolitan Street Railway's advance
was due to the often-revived rumors of
a combination with the Interborough
Rapid- Transit. The cancellation of the
engagement of $2,500,000 gold for shipment
to London was of some sentimental benefit.
This action wbs without any effect In
the money market nnd wns tsken without
any relaxation In the exchange market
from the condition when the engagement
was made. The weakness of the Iron and
steel stocks was traceable to the accusa
tion made against the Republic Iron and
Steel company of converting iron Into
steel billets for the Pittsburg Steel com
pany at prices that made the operation
equivalent to a cut of $4 per ton in the
pool's price for steel billets. Reports' of
special meetings of the steel pool to be
held this week to consider the situation,
and assertions that disruption of the pools
and an open market for steel products
would rsult, brought pressure on United
States Steel preferred, which caused it a
loss of 114 points.
Weekly traffic reviews by railroad offi
cials were of a favorable and hopeful tenor
and the later recovery In the stock market
reflected a cheerful undertone In Ihe specu
lation. The closing, howeve.r, was heayy.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, $2,223,000. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.

Ca 1 1X.E There were fu.lv as many cat'
tie here today as arrived a week ago, but
not nearly aa many as a year ago. The
table of receipts above will show the exact
figures. The market waa in much the same
condition it waa toward the close of last
week that Is. the demand was co tinned
very largely to the more desiraole grades.
The market on corn-led steers could be
quoted steady on the best g ranee and very
ouli and weak on others, warmcd-up cat
tle were very hard to move at any price,
as packers aeemed to preier westerns to
that class. As high as o.6j and fc.8o waa
paid tor corn-feds this morning, the latter
Deing the highest price on this market lor
some time past. The desirable grades were
disposed of In fairly good season, but It,
was late before a clearance of the short
fed cattle was made.
There were quite a few western grass
beef steers included In the offerings and
they were steady in some cases and in
others were perhaps a trifle lower. Where
there was any quotable difference It was
on the oommoner kinds in most instances.
The cow market was again very unaatla
factory, with the tendency of prices down
ward. Buyers went around and picked out
the bunches they wanted and paid about
steady prices for them, and the rest of
the offerings were almost unsalable. Pack
ers did not seem to want them and If they
did place a bid it was generally fully hnf
15c lower than the latter part of last
week. It was a very slow market from
start to finish and at a late hour there
were still a good many common cows un
sold. As high as $3.60 was paid this morn
ing for some spayed heifers shipped from
Hyannla. Neb. They were of tha triangle
brand and were very choice.
Bulls, veal calves and stags were not
mucq different from the close of last week.
. Receipts Included about 20 cars nf stock
ers and feeders. The better grades com
manded about steady prices, but others
were rather slow and weak to a dime
lower. Representative sales:

was made to wreck the Atlantic express on

Ahsay, noticing that lights of the switch
were turned In the wrong way, started to
fix them when he was fired at from the -dark

to the ground and the would-be trun
wreckers fled. Utley managed to get to the
station and called up Wllklns, the next
station west. The 'Atlantic express was
flagged there and the wreck and probable
holdup was thus prevented.
