CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Wheat Market Declines Mlshtlr, sod
Cora la Hltcher.
CHICAGO, Aug. 2.AUeged fear of reci
procity, coupled with absence of exports
hud a bearish influence on wheat today,
'iho market closed at prices varying frjm
the same as last nlt!ht to 'Ac declino.
Other leading staples showed net gains all
around. Corn, Wac to vg4c; oats, V4c
to c and provisions, W-fcc to 12V,c.
Although black rust reports, from Min
nesota eepoclally were serious, ihe news
did not bring commensurate buying orders
for wheat From the start prices had been
handicapped by an official estimate that
Italy would have a crop this year 40,000.000
bushels bigger than for the previous t'ele
months. Minnesota advices that black rust
hud attacked every field from Ciookston
to Staples rallied the market for a while
! but failed as a source of permanent sup
: portd urlng the session. September ranged
i from 80'!lc. with the close steady Vic
down at Wi!sWiC
An opinion from a leading expert that
I the condition of corn showed a falling
1 off of 12 points from a month ago, stnt
', the market for that cereal to a materially
I higher level. His statement was ntpreted
; as meaning a crop more than 800,000,000
I bushels less than Indicated by tht govern-
ment report for July. Price changes for the
September option ran from 63S,c to 66c.
with last sales firm at 64c, a net gain
of Ho to o. Cash grades were only in
meager supply. No. 2 ytllow finished at
Forecasts of a greatly reduced yield led
to a rise In the price of oats. There were
also assertions that the same output of
, hay would show tht lowest rate In fifty
I years. High and low points reached by the
i September option were 4T!o and 41c. The
close, 41So, represented a gain of lo
1 over last night.
Provisions ruled firmer. Pork closed Vic
, to 7Wai0o above the figures current twenty
four hours before; lard at &7o 4o 12tto
advance, and ribs with an increased cost
' of 70 to 2fic.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1. On a much larger
volume of trading the stock hiarket today
manifested a pronuonred Inclination to
seek a lower level. lrlces held fairly
steady at the outset, but taily in tne ses
sion a considerable selling movement re
sulted In a number of sex ere net losses.
The heaviness of the llt probably was
traceable to a number of causes. Railroad
and other executives have recently been
preaching the gospel of caution and con
set vatiym. and these utterances were selxe 1
upon yesterday when a number of poor
railroad reports were submitted, as some
what In the nature of a warning. Another
unwholesome Influence Is the persistency
of rumors that a federal Investigation of
tho "money power" Is probable.
An Incident which added much to the
day's unsettlement was the action of the
American Tobacco company directors In
deferring payment of the quarterly divi
dend on the common stock. This step. It
appears, was taken largely as a legal pre
caution pending the readjustment of the
company's affairs, as ordered by the
United States supreme court.
Tobacco shares were materially affected,
the common stock making a net decline
of 12 points on the "curb"' with a loss
of over five points for Standard oil. whoso
affairs also are In the way of reorganiza
tion. Another theory advanced In explanation
of the market's heaviness Is that the local
exchange Is now digesting the large
amount of securities sold here through
Ixindon and continental sources, while the
Moroccan situation was most acute. London
was falrlv active here today.
The fortnightly settlement was accom
plished without strain, but disappointment
was expressed at the showing of the Har
tlman lines. .....
Distinct weakness was shown by united
States Etce! today and the selling was
naturally associated with developments
bearing upon the federal Inquiry Into the
company's purchase of Tennesee Coal and
Iron. In point of fact, however, steel was
much stronger than many other specula
tive leaders, both Union Pacific. Northern
Pacific and Reading losing 2 or more
points. Bethelham Steel preferred declined
as much on a denial of rumors that divi
dends are to be resumed (n the near future.
Many of the more obscure specialties suf
fered heavily in the course of the session,
which closed weak at about the lowest
prices.
The government cotton crop report fix
ing up to July 25 the average conamon
of that staple at 89 1, as against 88 2 the
previous month, and 75.5 in July of last
year, seemed to exercise no Influence
market wise. .
The bond market reacted In sympathy
with stocks. Total sales par value were
t2.639.0O0. United States government bonds
were unchanged on call.

Chi x l.E Cattle receipts were very HD
eral for a Wednesday; 193 cara reported
in. This cakes the total for the three days
this weed IS, 000 head,' a gain of over
Z,vuO lituu as compared wiui tue same days
last ween, and the largest ot any similar
period tor a number of days back. Still the
total for the week shows a falling off of
around 4.T0U0 head, as compared with the
same three days a year ago. A considerable
proportion of the cattle received today con
sisted of range stock and a good deal of It
on the common order.
The demand for beef steers was very
good this morning, both for cornfeds and
for grassers. Buyers were out In the yards
early In the morning and the trade on de
sirable kinds was reasonably active at good
stesdy prices. The best cornfeds In the
yards sold as high as 87.06. the highest of
any day so far mis year. Common and In
ferior grades of beef were not tiverly ac
tive and may possibly have been a little
weak In spots.
Good cows and heifers like the better
grades of beef steers were In active demand
and sold freely at good steady prices. Com
mon and Inferior grades were a little slow
and hard to move with the tendency If
anything a little lower.
Stock cattle and feeders of the better
grades were In good demand and sold
freely at firm prices. Common thin stock
ers were slow and weak. A feature of the
feeder trade this year la the fact that
packers are buying a good many cattle
that previous years would have sold as
feeders, that Is, cattle while not good
enough to be considered really desirable as
killers still carry sufficient flesh to make
It possible. For this reason shippers will
understand that prices on feeding cattle
are not quoted relatively as high as last
year for the simple reason that the high
Snced cattle are going as beef steers and
ence appear under the head of killers
rather than feeders.

SHEEF Situation In sheep and lambs
today had few good points to recommend
It to sellers. Yesterday's finish was very
soft packers' tab showing about 2,83a head
unsold. They were mostly fat wethers
and their failure to move lends emphasis
to the fact that killers are getting more
muttons than they care to handle at pres
en prices. Something like 640 head of tho
holdover supply were available today.
Clearance of feeder grades was complete,
speculators taking fully half of total offer,
lngs suitable to finish.
Fresh receipts amounted to about fifty
loads of stock, practically all rangers.
Sheep outnumbered lambs and plenty of
weight was a discredit. The wether sup
ply, exclusive of stale stuff, was measured
by about twenty-six loads and fully tnrec
tourths of the fifty-load estimate carried
killing flesh.
Packers took little Interest in the early
traae ana buyers, as a rulo, consented to
visit pens only after two or three Invita
tions. It was a very quiet market from
the start with feeling bearish. Some busi
ness was done in lambs that uveruneil
about steady and, as good lambs seemed to
be In best demand, prices were very well
sustained on bulk. A spread of t6.00C!i6.2j
embraced promising dressers. Indicating
a limit of 86.50 for something strictly
choice.
Sheep acted draggy and ruled lower, mov
ing In most instances at lorr15c declines.
Good wethers sold around t3.254j3.50, and
desirable ewes held at usual small m i
counts. Yearlings changed hands at 84.20, 1
indicating a quotable top of 84.50.
