CHICAGO. July 0. [ Special Telegram to
the UKK. | A prospective decrease In the
visible supply of anywhere from 3 , < XX,000 ) to
4,000,000 bushels , further press and private
ndvices of crop damage In tlio northwest and
fiouthcast , tlm receipt of the government crop
report for July , Indicating n small reduction
In the winter wheat average nnd a drop of 8
points In Hprlnc wheat as compared with the
last monthly bulletin , were causes that com
bined to stimulate the wheat market to-day
and prices closed at an advance of % @ 7 c ,
July , August and December being the
ntrongcst months in the list General rains
fell last night nnd this morning and tlio
market oponencd weak nnd declining on
weather news , but the shipping statistics
were so very strong that they could not fall
to exert a strong Influence on values. The
local shorts very generally figured as buyers ,
'nnd the scalping element took the long
aide. There was a promiscuous scattering of
Investment demand all through the session ,
and ntter tlio first half-hour the market failed
to show more than momentary weakness at
any stage of proceedings. July wheat told
at the beginning at 70c nnd closed at 71J c.
11 August started at 72c , receded to 72@72) < c ,
and advanced to 73e , where It closed. Sop-
to m be r ranged 74@74Xp low and 75c high ,
, closluc nt 7475c. December ranged 78J/c
low nnd 7 ! > X@70.c " 'gh. ' and rested at the
outHlde. The volume of trading was rather
above the nvoraco , though no concentrated
action on either side was noticeable. The
tone of the torolgn markets was rather
steadier and it Is observed that while the old
world consumers are Industriously blocking
nnd whittling down values , they are buying
heavily of American cheap wheat and mill
ing It out of the country as fast as possible.
Durlnu the past week next to nothing has
arrived at primary points , and the .scattering
of the visible stocks has been going on nt a
noticeable rate. 1'rom this city alone , In
llvo days , I.IOS.OOO bushels have
been nhlpped , nud from the Atlantic poits
during the same period 2,200,000 bushels have
been cleared , an Increase over last week of
600,000 bushels. The local stocks will prob
ably show a decrease of about l/iOO.OOO bush
els , and tlio visible supply llnures next Mon
* day should not bo far from * ) ,000OCO bushels.
There was a weak and lower opening to
: the corn market on the weather , mare rain
bavlnir fallen during tno past twenty-four
hours throughout the west Tlio starting
sales were nt 30Xc for AiiKiist R7'tfc for SOIH
tombcr , 37fo ! for October , nnd 89 > c for May.
This was /4@Xo below yesterday's closing.
Under the face of speculative offerings the
market Hagised Xd > Xc more for all futures
this side of May , but at the decline there
Avcro Increased buying orders. The shorts
wore disposed to cover , and when these who
had sold early tried to buy In the market
Ilrmed up on them , recovering within a small
fraction nil of the ground lost. August
closed nt aitfQSGJ c.Soptomber 0187 (1687 ( % : ,
October nt 87Kc. and May nt 89c. The
break In the Now York market on the
hot corn scare had no perceptible
Direct upon values here. The local cash
trade was again quiet to-day , with not much
doing. The shipments for the week , how-
cverrlargoly exceed the receipts , and tliero
has been a reduction In local stocks during
that time of about 1,000,000 bushel. To-day's
speculative business 'was of lair overage
volume , though It partook larcely of nn uven-
Ing-up character usually witnessed on Sat
urday. *
Oats were without special features In the
speculative market. Although samples were
lower , No. 9 cash | in store nnd seller the
month were pretty hrmly held. August nnd
September fluctuated within a ranfroof J/c ,
nnd closed Kc lower than vestenlay at 25 > c
and 20 } c respectively. May oats closed
steady and unchanged at 3lc. All futures
were a little lowtr around the opening and
epeculatlvo trading for the day was light
Tno provision market recovered a llttlo
from yesterday's apathy. More general In
terest WHS manifested , and whllo there was
no continued life , the business transacted
was notlcoatilv larger. Speculation , as usual ,
was routined to short ribs and Inrd. which
vroro Inclined to act sympathetically nnd
both of which ruled higher. In lard the es
tablished advance was 10(312 ( e , and In short
ribs , 7X < < * lOc. The closings for these articles
were nt or near the best prices obtained ,
whllo the open I nes wero. as a rule , at Inside
figures. August and September were the ac
tive deliveries. Future pork was inactive ,
cash being quoted at $17.00.

to the UKK.I STOCKS The market to-day
was a regular Saturday ono dull and unin
teresting , with only half a down really ac
tive stocks In tbo list The bank statement
was decidedly favorable , showing an Increase
In the reserve Of § 2,701,375. Money was easy
and there being few long stocks otfered the
shorts thought It best to cover , and advances
of } ( to lif per cent were secured. Lacka-
wanna , however , acted Independent , and
broke 1& per cent , but rallied 1 per'coiit.
Deacon White's frlund said he was a bear
nnd Lackawanna must po lower , but they
did not expect It to break 10 points. Western
Union was another weak , sister , and declined
X per cent but reacted ; Y per cent In some
quarters a change of sentiment was noticed ,
operators who have been bears all the week
being Inclined to turn bull on the theory
that easy money would Induce the bulls to
take hold ; also the belief that Mr. Gould and
his party had manipulated the market down
to buy nnd will proceed to put prices up next
week. Chicago stock operators traded spar-
Incly. The total sales were G3G24 shares.

Oattlo.
The run of cattle to-day was unusually
heavy for Saturday nnd more than double
the receipts for any day this week. A large
proportion of the cattle were western steers.
The general marKet was slow and weak and
was dragging all day. Not over half of the
receipts chanced hands and shippers took
the bulk of these.
HORS.
The receipts of hogs wore also very heavy
for the close of the week , and 1COO In excess
of the heaviest day's receipts this week. The
market opened a llttlo slow on account ot
the heavy run , but na soon as the. buyers got
to work It livened up , and the bulk was soon
sold out. The buyers Insisted from the first
on taking otf 6@lOc from yesterday's prices
and the hogs were all sold at that decline.
Thure were a good many Jato arrivals bnt
they sold as fast as they could bo unloaded.
Bhnep.
Them were a few In to-day , the first for this
week , which sold on the market
