GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET
Wheat Breaks .on Profit Taking and Corn
on Bain Prospect,
RUST AND DAMAGE STORIES CONTINUE

Howa Arm Hat lteees-
omaMa, Ann:. is, 1904.
There was a very natural reaction in the
rain markets of the world today. This
partially due to a flood of profit-taking
order and also to the failure of the sched
uled frost to arrive In Manitoba. There wai
yet another factor thai wag favorable to
corn and that was that the weather map
howed cloudy all over thi belt, with every
Indication of generous rains. Admittedly
that la all that la needed to make corn
row like the proverbial green bay tree.
That there waa any Improvement In the
harvest yield of what, that the pros
pects for larger or better cropa, less dam
aire from mat or any newa of a favorable
character waa not a fact, and even the
possibility of better then expected was not
a factor In bringing abour a reactionary
decline. Wore than thin, at one time thia
morning, after the flrat rush of liquida
tion, price for all deliveries touched higher
figures than yesterday's close. September
going to 1109 in Chicago, December to
SLOPfe and May to fLUTfe, or nearly to the
top of yesterday' range.
All the goealp newa of the morning, and
from the moat reliable source, continued
to point out damage and decreased return
while tales were told of abandoned flalda.
Hut a market that has (tone up 10 cent
without a reaction, without manipulation
and solely on the merits of the situation,
should moat naturally have a reaction.
Other places, Mlnncaapnlls, Kansas City
and Omaha Joined In the break, but the
.short seller were very nervous tnd It
would not be surprising; If thvy would
cover their trade before the oloeo of th
session, September wheat ranged between
Sl.OtS'A, and $1.09; December between $1.0t
and II. ( In Chicago and May between
$1.0f'4 and tl.il, . making the average
losses of the day up to the lent hour c
In Omaha the demand for caah wheat
wa unabated and Uie prices for No. 3,
the beat grade offered on the aample table,
waa up to Whi, being- very cloee to the
dollar market. Corn, too, I In rood de
mand. In the eastern speculative market corn
waa off on the September future e and
the deferred deliveries were IHo lower.
This waa due as stated before to the pros
pect of soaking rains.
Oata were about Tic lower In sympathy
with the leading cereal, but In fairly
food demand and steady at the decline.
The 8t. Louis millers do not believe there
will be at any time on the present crop a
large accumulation of viable supplies.
There waa a most remarkable cleaning; up
of stocks at the end of the last crop year,
they say, and- this accounts for the disap
pearance of the new wheat a fast as It
arrives. The country mlllera were out of
the wheat. There were no accumulated
supplies In the large terminals and there
waa no stock of flour. The trade wa down
to a hand-to-mouth bawls In all depart
ments, and It has been running along that
way ever slnoe. I believe that Michigan, In
diana and Ohio will have to Import from
5,0tO,000 to 40.0HO.0ti0 bushels of wheat from
other atates. 1'nnnsvlvanlu. has not raised
as much a It will need for home consump
tion. About all the leading firms In the north
west, even thoae who have been bearish on
the situation heretofore, ere very bullish
at the present time. It Is currently re
ported that one of the large milling eon
cerna In Minneapolis bought 2,500.000 bushels
of wheat In this market yesterday. Minne
apolis Arms bought everything for sale In
Kansan City yesterday, thus showing how
seriously they regard the northwest situa
tion. We have, the following from Mr. J. A.
Patten, Minneapolis: State Senator Lewi
of Cass county, North Dakota, says har
vesting machines will never be started In
some of the wheat fields on my farm south
of Ruffalo. The black rust ha done a lot
of damage In that section of the county
eind crops that two weeks ago promised
thirty bushels per acre now look like total
failure. My poorest cropa are on land that
I expected the beet ylelda from.
We get It from a reliable source In Man
ftob that two-thlrda of the wheat crop
In Manitoba 1 Infected with block rust
and It looks aa though the crop would be
ruined.

CHICAGO, Aug. 13. Extreme weakness,
abnormal strength and weakness again
was the erratic coiiree of today's wlieat
market.' Conflicting reports on the crop
outlook caused the extraordinary mlxup.
Opening losses of from lc to 2.(1 -'tc were
mora than regained and again more than
lost. Final figure for Heptember were
down 2c and for December lc. Com
closd c off for September and l"4c for
December. Osta are down S'uc Wovl
slons made gains varying: from 7l4'3ax.'.
September wheat was down lc to lHc at
Il.tfl jl.OiH at the opening and declined on
heavy liquidation to fi.GC. Iecember
showed a lose In the opening tnules of
lit mo to n'uHo at $l.C7((i 1.08 and aoon re
ceded to SLOW. Then occurred a sensa
tional rally. T he nervouaness of the trade
found expression In sudon leaps and tum
bles of prices. September sold at Sl.
before the feverish mail of buying wa
satisfied. Septeniler broke to Jt.ObSa, ral
lied on a last effort of the bulls to hold
prices down and sank back to ll.OhVJ,
where It cloeed weak.. December declined
to SLOTS, rallied to ll.ORVa and closed alao
weak at tl.OTVu W. Clearances of wheat and
flour were equal 'to 2W.0"0 bushels, with
primary recelpta of 7S3.000 bushels, against
651, SKai bushels a year ago. Minneapolis,
Dultith and Chicago reported receipts of
243 cars, aa compared with 24 laat week
and 810 a year ago.
The corn market acted heavy under the
Influence of tho roectlon In wheat value
and because of rain end rtrouth-afflloted
portions of the corn Country. September
opened with a loss of V(ilV, at 6.V(.!fe64c.
December wa down Vt HC to 4'. M
Jift44C, Meager recelpta, 4 cars, and the
early show of wheat strength was about all
that favored corn bulls. With Indifferent
cables. Inducing liquidation at the start,
and with luter estimates of a 60,000,000
bushel Increase In the Nebraska crop, the
whole tendency of the corn market wa
toward lower prices. Heavy buying of
September buoyed the price of that option
to ftT'c, but could not hold It there. De
cember, at Its best, got btit o above the
opening range, selling nt Mc, and declin
ing with the break In September. Trading
In September wa large and fluctuation In
creased, though In a small range., and the
close for the day was at a Ions of c. De
cember declined to 63Hc, closing easy at
63fHi3c. Local recelpta were 1.2 car.
The tendency In oata waa In line with tho
general trend of the other grain markets,
though the fluctuations were In a narrower
range. September .opened lc lower at
Sc, and sold off to 1U4C on the early de
cline. The rally In the other pit brought
about some strength and the price ad
vanced to Uc. but reacted to 34 on the
late recession. In the grain values. The
close was easy at S4Vc. Local receipts were
287 cars. - ,
Provisions were active and higher. The
local run of hogs waa much smaller than
anticipated and thl stimulated the demand.
Higher cables were also a factor In ad
vancing prices. September pork closed 20c
higher at I11.77H; lard was up 7H5 at W.95,
ribs gained 10(ftl24c at 27. 46(87. 47 M,.
ftTma.ted receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
210 cars; com, 172 cars; oata, 357 car; togs,

S0VE RECOVtRY MADE FROM DEPRESSION
Feverish Tone of Wheat Haa Very
Little Influence on tbe Market
ltlo Grand Shows Fall
lag; Off.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1 The stock msrket
had to contend with some depression today
as It had yeaterday and. although It made
headway against the depression, the re
covery and the later strength were by no
means so decisive aa yesterday. The fsc
tors which seemed to make for reaction
were not as much In evidence either a
they were In the movement yesterday,
which confidentially Ignored them. The
action of the grain market today wa
considerably less alsrmlng from the view
point of an owner of aecutltlea The fever
ish tone of wheat and the continued re
ceipt of newa of damage to spring wheat
did not obscure the Inclination to take
prnflta tn that commodity..
Reports of grosa earnings for the second
week of August were uniformly favorable
with the sole exception of Denver A Rio
Grande, which showed a decline from l..st
year's corresponding period of 21 per cent.
Yet that stock shot up over 2 points. The
demand for It was sttrlhuted to Ixmdon
account. Buying of Erie was said to come
from the same source. Missouri. Ksnsa
A Texa wa said to be bought today for
account of Amsterdam. .There were several
other centers of positive strength In the
market to help on the contest T.lth the
depression. The local traction were the
subject of a demonstration which compre
hended the whole group for the first time
since the current movement set In. Mnn
hattan led with a rise of more than 3 and
Interborough on the curb rose with equal
violence. Repetition of old merger run cra
was the only explanation and Ihe gicup
reacted sharply. The advance in the mi It
Ing stocks wn attributed to the pending
negotiations for a union of lead Interests
and to good current earnings. The tire In
Amalgamated Copper was psrtly In Sym
pathy with that In smelting. The stitngth
of the Erie's helped the other loalers. espe
cially Reading and Pennaylvanla's gtod
tone was due to the progress making In the
soft coal trade. The feRr of a war of price
cuts trade was a weight upon tne market
and received much discussion. But United
States Steel seemed to be supported and
these fears were quieted. Th market sold
off sharply In the last hour, but In the
final dealings there was a rally, led by
Amalgamated Copper, and the closing wsa
firm, with the gains pretty well maintained.
The market was noticeably spotty all day
and the mass of the railroad list did not
share In the strength of special stocks.
Bonds were quiet, but Arm. Total sales,
par value, $2,350,000. United Btate bonds
were unchanged on call.

Ca.iuii! xveceipu were yulte moderate
this morning, uui packer am not seem lu
o at an an a io uu tor supplies, aim aa a re
sult anotner biow, unaailaiactury market
was experienced. Anytniug siricuy cnu.ee
that just auitea Duyers waa not nard io uls
pose of, but ouiers wer in many case ai
uiutt uneaiabla.
. There were quite a few corn-fed steer
on aaie, but most of tnem were ot the
short-led -variety, 'rhoee that could be
classed as good to choice sot a reaauy at
about yesterday's prices, but the rest of
i hem buyers wouid nardiy look at. As had
been mentioned througii tneae columns
many tinres, there is very lutie demand
for short-ted corn cattle, as they come in
competition with the western grassers and
packers prefer to take the westerns at the
ruling prices.
There were only a few ' western grass
beef oteers and the demand seemed to be
BUtnclent to take the more desirable grades
at ateady prices. Common cattle were
very dull and weak. It waa evident that
packers were not anxious tor only a lim
ited number.
The cow market was in much the asm
condition it waa yesterday that Is, buyers
picked out a few they wanted and the rest
salesmen had to take what they could
get for them. A large proportion of the
receipts consisted of cows, about twenty
five loads being on sale, so that It was
late before even the bulk was disposed of.'
Packers seem to want only a few loads of
cows eaoh day and If there are more on
sale than they need salesmen are not able
to sell them for what they are worth, but
for what they can get.
There wa no material change In the mar
ket for bulls, veal calves and stags.
There were only a few storkera and feed
ers . sight and the desirable grades sold
In about yesterday's notches without much
trouble. Common kinds were dull, the same
as usual.
The close of the cow market was con
siderably 4etter than the opening. - Buyers
apparently had more liberal order and
Jumped In and bought up most everything
in sight. In soma cases the more desirable
frades brought a little stronger prices
han the same kind sold for yesterday
A good clearance was made. Representa
