The short winter new rup ana a reasonable certainty i km Be ln the sPrinS wheat crop, will The corn market was at a standstill iiuciuations being very narrow. The strongest argument on the bull side is the strong cash situation and renewal of euBiem aemana, and the continued cool weather.

CHICAGO, June 8.-Wheat eaBed off a bit today on account of continued showers in the west. At the end of the session the market was c to 14c under last night. Corn finished l-16c to c higher, oats with a gain of c to c and provisions 2c to 12c increase in cost. Week-end evening up and the fact that the government crop report comes out after the close Monday combined to keep trading in wheat at a minimum. Reports ol rajn having lallen in small quantities but well distributed throughout Nebraska and Kansas formed the chief Influence. There was also a forecast that weather conditions would remain unsettled In the two states. Bears, however, were ra (strained by fresh testimony from aft" perts that both Kansas and Nebaka crops had lost considerable from to total yield that recently was regarded a nearly essurea. All during the day longs unioafled on the bulges. What prevented any material decline, though, was the evidence that a number of professional speculators were buying on all the breaks. (September ranged from $1.051.05 to tlM't, with last sales $1.05&1.0o, a loss of 4c net. The com market was firm. July fluctu ated from 74c to 75c, closing steady c up at 74&C Cash grades were in fair demand. No. 2 yellow, 76771ic. Strength of oats grew out of the idea that all of the local stock would be sold before the middle of next week. Shin ments from here were shown to be greatly exceeding the receipts. July ranged be tween 52c and 51c, with the close 61 Diic, a rise oi o irom last night. There was no pressure to sell in the provisions list. Accordingly quotations were put on up grade.

NO CHANGE IN CROP ADVICES Wrt-klj- Statement of Clearing llooie Banks Showq Financial Institutions GMting Ready for Settlements. NEW YORK. June 8. Dullness and Ir regularity, which later turned to heavi ness in certain Issues, dominated the two hours' of business on the Stock exchange today. The usual market leaders were almost entirely neglected. They fluct uated within a fractional range until just before noon, when selling of Union Pa cific, Rock Island, Norfolk & Western, Missouri Pacific and some of the Indus trials created a weak close. Crop advices today did not disclose any change in the generally fair conditions existing almost everywhere, except In some or the central and middle west states. London's markets were weak pending the outcome of next week's conference with the dock strike. That our banks and other financial in stitutions are yetting ready for the mid year requirements was shown in the weekly statement of the clearing house banks. It was clear from the returns made by the banks and trust companies not in the clearing house, that the burden had been shifted from these institution to the clearing house. Bonds were dull, with the price move ment somewhat restricted. Total Bales, par value, $749,000. United States government 4s were ad vanced 4 per cent on the week.

For the week re celpts foot up 10,781 head, being about 2,300 head smaller than last week and over 8,000 head smaller than a year ago, To make another comparison, the receipts tma week nave oeen the smallest of any ween ainoe tne nrst week in April, and with that single exception the smallest ince tne beginning of the year. The arrivals have consisted largely of beef steers, with a moderate sprinkling of cowa and helfera, and with very few took or feeding cattle. conditions governing the trade on kill ing cattle have been decidedly unfavor able to tne selling interests. The public demonstrations in large eastern consum ing centers against prevailing high prices for meat have caused an enormous shrinkage ln the consumption of beef products of all kinds, with the result that the cattle market has suffered greatly. The very choicest grades of beef steers, owing to their scarcity, have experienced little or no decline, but the common to medium and even pretty good kinds, are safely 10j.16c lower at tula point, and In some cases possibly a good deal mote than that. Eastern markets have suf fered etill more severely. The best grades ot dry lot cows and heifers have also remained very nearly stationary, but the medium to common grades are 26(360 lower than last week, aa it Is the cneaper grades of beef that have suffered the most through the anti- higli price agitation In the east. Very few stock cattle or feeders have been coming to market this week, and In consequence of the extremely light 01 ferlngs prices have shown little change, being generally ubout the same as a week ago. On tho other hand, as usual at this season ot tho year, the demand has been very slack, so that the receipts, in aplte of their being so light, have been ample to supply tho demands of buyers.

HOGS Supply estimates of hogs for next week were all limited this morning, prompting active demand and slight im provement in prices. The uarly market ruled strong to a nickel higher, only one of the .'.taker packers remaining Idle dur- ng rirst rounds. Other buyers were not Influenced by this feature of the buying until arter tne more urgent orders were filled, v. lion the trade became steady and filially tloM;a weak. Bulk of the recelDta changed hands at figures that averaged strong. For a week-end run. offerings had pretty fair volume, amounting to about 8,000 head.

The two loads wero of the same feeding aa the $8.00 lambs yesterday and brought the same price. During the week the main feature of the trade has been a small and rather trashy supply. About 17.000 head have been received, Including a tralnload of good California spring lambs that sold at $8.S!).25 on Monday. Offerings on most days consisted largely of clean-up singles, the proportion of common stuff proving excessively large. Naturally the parking demand liaq been very slack throughout and prices have suffered more or loss. Strictly good shorn iambs are now selling about c under values at last, week's close, while odds and ends finished poorly at levels all of aX7JC6c lower. Off-grades have been unpopular for some time past and the slumpy condition ot eastern dressed mutton tiade has only served to strengthen this prejudice. Excepting the string of California lambs on Monday and n two-car shlP' ment or Oregon sheep at mld-woek, no range stuff lias been received lately, all advices augaestlnv late shipments be cause of t!iB backward spring. Some Idaho lambs una sheep are expected dur ing the n:xt week 01 two, but the run from other sections of the grass country will pn.l'uhly hhnw up two or three weeks later than usunl. Until this west ern crop begins to move, the feeder trado at this point cannot, amount to much. Only on or two loads wore pur chased 011 country orders this week, puck ers taking tho big bulk of the supply.

DON'S REVIEW OF TRADE Quickened Movement of Business Shown by Statistics. FAILURES LIST UNFAVORABLE Aetvlcea'from iron and Steel Trade Constitute Moat Encoaragins Feat are of Indostrlal Sit uation of Coantry. NEW YORK. June 8.-R. G. Dun d Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade today says: The quickened movement of trade is clearly revealed by the statistic of bank clearings, railroad earnings anl pig Iron production. On the other hand, ln num ber of defaults and amount of liabilities the May record of commercial failures, while better aa compared with previous months of this year, was unfavorable as compared with corresponding months In moat of the preceding years. the advices from the Iron and ateel trade constitute the most encouraging feature of the situation. There waa re markable production of pig Iron during May and with the prospect of adequate crops, the reasonable outlook Is for a high water mark activity thla year ia thla great basic industry with an ad vance in prices not unlikely. Undoubtedly business sentiment and buslnesa enter prise are still held ln check by solicitude regarding the growing crops. A shortage ot labor la reported ln the Connellsvilla coke district. The primary markets for dry Broods jobbers and retailers are fairly active, Improved weather conditions having as sisted distribution and stimulated tho de mand for goods for Immediate consump tion. Cotton goods at first hands are rather dull. Moro wash goods and sum mer merchandise are going Into con sumption and export business la quiet. Fine cloths are auiet and dress rinahams dull, but others in fair demand; duck holda steady and colored cottons . ara firm. The cotton yarn market are quiet and prices easier, but worsted yarns spinners are busy on sample lines tor a new season. Fall orders are coming; In slowly for broad silks, but new lines of tie silks are attracting much attention. liade ln seasonable footwear continues to Improve. Pronounced strength con tinues In all descriptions of sole and upper leather, but the market ia gen erally inactive. BRADSTREET'S TRADE REVIEW Better Weather and Crop Progress 4'aaae Expansion. NEW YORK, June 8.-Bradatreefa to day says: Better, more seasonable weather and the progress of the crops toward points where progress Itself can be meaaured are responsible for a further expansion in the volume of final distributive trade. This la, ot course, most marked In retail trade In tha larger cities and Industrial centera and less so in the country dis tricts where farmers are still wrestling with the obstacles Imposed by an Almost uniformly late planting and growing season. . Dry goods and light summer wearing apparel are feeling the stimulus of tha weather, and better buslnesa Is being enjoyed by jobbers, who also find an ad ditional Impetus to trade in semi-annual mark-down sales to close out stocks of summer goods. . There is a fair trade In fall roods, but this Is governed by a studied eon servatiam bred of political uncertainty na aesira tor a clearer view of crop probabilities. Tho Industries are In good shape. Iron and steel report closa to maximum production, though new de mand Is not so marked. Tha building trades show a good tr. .'rease for May and the five months, ind the coal trade having resumed work, demand and distribution are better. Coke la easier, Trade on the great lakea la good and promises to be bottiir. Reports from the cotton goods trade still display aoma of tha curious cross currents hitherto noted. Some lines of goods are closely sold up. Others, such as heavy yarna and wlda prints are softer. Still the general re port from nearly :tl. 'lues a that stock are not In any sense burdensome.
