NEW YORKFINANCIAL Becent Freight Bate Decision Besults in Overwhelmingly Bearish Operations in Wall Street. New York, July 2. Trading In today's desultory market was governed almost en tirely by the caprices of professional oper ators. ' Sentiment was overwhelmingly bear ish, tor which the recent freight rate de cision was held chiefly accountable. Ball experienced a sensational price de preciation, standard shares losing 1 to 8 points, while St. Paul recorded an extreme decline of 5 points to 47, Its minimum quotation for about twenty years. Elsewhere the list displayed highly er ratio tendencies, a few leading industrials rising briskly when others of equal promi nence were Irregular or weak. This was especially true of equipments and recognised war shares.- Baldwin ' and American , locomotives, Pressed Steel, Carm Steel and Republican Iron scored gsins of 1 to 3 points, while united states Steel, Bethlehem Steel, Colo rado Fuel and a few associated Issues re acted 1 to 3 points. Shippings, rails, American Sugar andmtnor specialties were Intermittently aetlve at 1 to 3 points advances, but these movements were overshadowed by the heaviness of automobiles and accessories, Ohio Gas and Industrial Alcohol, the latter making a de cline of 7 points. Metals were unusually quiet, dealings In that group being restricted by labor troubles. With scarcely an exception lowest prices ware made in the broader selling of the last hour, rails at that period lacking sup port even at concessions. Few gains, the market closing with a heavy tone. Sales 635,000 shares. Call and time loans were Increasingly easy, sixty days' accommodations shading H per cent. Commercial paper also evinced a lower trend. Foreign exchange held around last week's rates, except rubles, which fell to the new low record of 21.70. Another small Import of British gold was offset by moderate exports to Japan and South America. Bonds were Irregular and nominal as to dealings. Liberty 84.held firm at par to 100 1-60.

Trade was slow right from the start owing to extremely beariph reports from other markets and while desirable heavy cattle were wanted at prices not so very much lower than the closo of last week the general run of light and medium weight steers found an outlet at prices 100 15o lower than Friday. Cows and heifers suffered fully as much as fat cattle and it was a dull and un evenly lower deal on anything In the way of ah stock. Business In stockers and feeders was very quiet, the best fleshy kinds ruling about steady with last week's close, and the ordi nary run of steers being a drag on the mar ket at unevenly lower figures.

Early estimates called for only sixty-eight cars, or 4,600 head, which Is 2,700 smaller than a week ago, 1,000 short of two weeks ago, and only a little more than half as large as for the corre sponding day last year. Under the Influence of light receipts lo cally, and a firmer tone to prices else where, hog values were generally a big nickel higher. Shippers had good orders, and the number of hogs they bought amounted to at least a third of the total receipts, their purchases being limited In fact only by the number of their kind of hogs that were on offer. Shipper trade looked fully 10c higher, sales to order buyers being anywhere from a nickel to 15c higher. Shippers were eager buyers, but the killer market had, on the other band, a sllgntiy dull undertone throughout. Most of the packer purchases, It la true, looked a nickel higher, but buyers were backward about granting price upturns, especially on the less desirable hogs. Thanks to the fact that offering were so light, a fair clearance had been made before tho middle of tho morning, but the extreme close was slow, and a few scattering tranche had pot changed hands up to a late hour. The market was more or less uneven again today, and as a general thing looked a big 5c higher than the close or last ween. A big percentage of the supply changed hands at a spread of 114.80 15.10, while the top of 315.25 was the highest price paid since the middle or last weeK. Nnl Av.' 8h. Pr. No. ' Ar. Sh.

About olght cars, or 3,000 head, were reported In, as compared wtt!i eight cars, or 2,247 head, a week ago; a,;4i two weeks ago and 7.793 last year. The tone to the lamb market continued easier despite the fact that receipts were so light and sales were made at prices that were generally a little lower than tne low time on Friday's close. One load came di rect to a packers, besides which receipt Included three cars of Idaho ana a few singles of natives. The prices paid for natives, compared with the few early sales made early Fri day morning, were considerably lower, but from Friday's close, when the bulk of the offerings sold, the decline did not amount to over 1416c, two or three packages of the best natives selling at 317.10. The three doubles of Idahos, which went at 117.00, showed similar reduction from the low spot Friday, when several cars were bought at 317.15.

Cora Mtlll (limb And Again Make New Kecord, This Time Closing at l.78V Chicago, July 2. For the second time In two days the corn market has soared above all previous high price records. No. 3 grades reached 31.78 H a bushel today as against a new top level of tl.J6 on Satur day. Last chancetactlvtty of distillers was one of the numerous bullish factor, but the main impetus seemed to come from the scarcity of supplies for Immediate delivery p contracts. uptions Closed nervous lHff2tc net higher, with July at 81.69, and Septem- oer ai ii.svwt.ou . wheat hart an unset- tied finish, lo off to 3 up at $2.01 for July and $1.84 H for September. Oals gainea w l and provisions 10I.So. An approach within less than five cents of the maximum prloea established for fu ture delivery transactions formed one of the leading achievements of today's corn mar ket. The highest quotation possible for a future option under existing board of trade war emergency rules is 31.65 and the Julv price reached 31.69 H at one time today. Eagerness of distillers as buvers ws . plained as due to their belief that the near at hand final enactment of the food control oiii at Washington, would shut off until at least the end of the hostilities, alt further opportuity for the manufacture of whiskey, In addition to this aspect of war condition seaboard advices were , unanimous that ex port call was strongly In evidence. Total absence of ny deliveries of corn here today on July contracts tended great ly to Increase anxiety on the part of shorts who must settle In the present month, as the stock of corn In Chicago has dwindled to 248,000 bushels. Other shorts whose ob ligation ar to furnish supplies for new crop deliveries, were worried In particular by a compehensive report from high author ity. Indicating that the condition of the 1917 gowth was below normal In some of the most Important producing states. Wel come rains In Oklahoma and Kansas seemed to have but slight effect In checking the advance of the market. Wheat and oats reflected tho strength cf corn. Trading In wheat, however, was not much above sero In volume, the general as sumption being that complete control of the market soon would be taken over by the federal government. On the other hand, business lit oat was large and the value of tne grain was lifted especially by a good export demand. x Strong hands took control of all the pro vision delivered on July contracts. The amount was heavy, contrasting notably with the scarceness of grsln, bufnew sellers were not to be found and the market made an oven - sieeper aavance than corn. casn Jr-rines wheat: Nos. 2 and t red and 3 and 8 hard, nominal.
