CHICAGO , Sept. 12 , fSpoclnl TeloRrnm
to TUB UF.E.I Another bull day In the whont
innrknt rnthcr disconcerted BOIHO of the
more stubborn hhnrts who failed to boliov'J In
the tendency It him been showing during the
past two ( In.vs , but this duns of speculators
\vcro buying to- < lay nnd contributed to hell )
the bulls utter the hitter hud advanced the
prlco nbout } { o this morning. Tim bears had
llnccd ) faith In the heavy movement of spring
wheat , nnd when , yestorduy , the volume of
this appeared to bo already abating , nnd aiftiln
to day a still further diminution of receipts
nt Minneapolis nnd Duluth was reported ,
their faith In the correctness of their prom-
lacs wcaitoncd their bollof nnd caused them
to struKRlo with the bulls for nome of the
day's ofTorhwB. Worst , the crop exuert , In
on Interview to-day said that the com
plete government returns would show
that , not more than 475,000,000 bushels of
wheat hail this year boon raised on Mils con
tinent , und there was a strong probability
that the ultimata tlgurcs would show It to bo
nearer 470,000,000 than 475,000.000 bushels.
St. Louis reports wcro vary general to the
effect that the force of the early movement
of winter wheat had exhausted itself nnd
tlmt restricted deliveries from now on would
bo u strong argument fur higher prices. Ca
bles to the board wcro encouraging to the
bulls , but private dispatcher wore said to re
flect a woalter tone. Export clearances Rave
no cvldcnco of any animated foreign domund
for American wheat or flour. The much
discussed question of the extent of this year's '
Russian crop was nguln raited up to do duty
for the bears. Llko Uanquo's ghost. It will
not down. It was once mofo claimed that the
KUBslan spring wheat crop was so abundant
as to mulct ) good nil dellcicnelcs of winter
wheat. This was ouo of the reasons for the
early decline. The poor qimlity of the wheat
arriving In this market Is a sere disappoint
ment , and tha small proportion of No. 'J Is n
nourco of uneasiness to the bears and Is
being constantly trotted out as an nrfiumont
In favor of their opponents. The opening
prlco for Decomoor was 71)0 ) , or a shade
better than ut the close yesterday. It sold
"down to 78 c , up to 78u , tigain oft , getting
down to 78 > { @ 78 > c , and evinced a reluctance
to again get above 785 e. ft finally , however ,
reached 70o , and later 7 ! Ke , which latter
was again the halting spot for some time.
Finally , however , it advanced to "S' ' e und
reacted to 717lli c , where it rested.
Speculators in corn worn bearish. The
government report , indicating a crop of
1,050,000,000 bushels if uulntorfered with by
the Srost nnd freezing weather advised as
prevailing in the northwest , evincing a re
luctance to leave- that part of the country ,
wcro ftictors contributing to the desire to
sell snort. Kemoto futures were conspicu
ously weak and became the main target , fern
n bear attack. Cash and September corn
continued to received strong sittmort from a
leading operator , who is said to own most of
the contract corn in store houses now , una
his action , along with seine sympathetic in-
lluonco trom the strength of the wheat
market , were chief factors on the other sido.
There wiis no great activity In trading and
prices ut the close were as follows : Septem
ber ! l c , October IK c , May S5c bid.
Oats were dull und woalter. The posted
receipts excccdea the estimate , frost In the
west failed to materialize , and with corn
easy rather mtire outs were offered and the
buying support was small. May sagged
buck c to "Ho , though it steadied later , nnd
near months were in some Instances ( rej o
lower. Withdrawals for shipment cou-
tluucd liberal and cash trading was dually
by sample. For No. 3 regular lOifo was the
usual bid price , with light grading finally re
corded nt lOLfo.
The provision trndo was n little slow.
October pork sold off somewhat , moro in
consequence of the want of backbone ap
parently in the much-advertised squeeze than
from any direct hammering , and for Octo
ber short ribs prices also ruled easier. Lurd
for the sumo month , however , was
well supported. In the January property
the changes witnessed show a loss of
strength since yesterday. Hogs continue to
bo received more freely nt packing points
than iast year. Last week packing in the
west showed an increase of 4o,000 hogs over
the snmo week in 18b3 , amounting to 145.000.
In the general produce market iliuro was no
life to spcnk of to-day. Orders of all kinds
were under the average , and the speculative
business transacted xvus mainly on local ac
count. Thu closings Indicated an advance of
DC In September lard and a decline of SOc
in October pork. 5c In September short ribs ,
lOo In October short ribs and January pork ,
and UJo in January short ribs. Lard for
October and January was ( juotubly un
changed.

CHICAGO , Sept. 12. | Special Telegram to
Tin : HBC.J CATfijis The receipts consisted
of U.OOO Texans , 8,000 rangers and 5,000 na
tives. At the oloso of yesterday's market
prices , according to the observation of tie-
tlvu und veteran salesman , wore the lowest
for the week nnd in some cases the lowest
for the season on natives. Prime NcbrnsKn
steers , uvoraglng 1400 Ibs , were as low as
$3.50 , and there were Instances wlie.ro good
stcors that cost $ -1.00 in the country sold
hero at $3,00. There was certainly more
complaint and moro unfavorable comment
by salesmen on the pressed condition of the
market yesterday afternoon than the
writer of these reports has listened to this
season. To-tluy thuro was little or no
Improvement In any direction. The bulk of
tha native stock was a good equal to any
day of this \vcolc , and among the oITerinirs
were several loads of export stcors , but the
general market was slow , dragging and un
satisfactory on almost everything In the na
tive lino. Toxaus and rangers underwent
little or no chungo and the stacker and
feeder trudo presented no now features.
Dustncps was dull und prices very
low on light und common stackers.

Thursday , Sept. 13.
There was not much hero to do with to-day
In the way of beef cattlo. There wore no
good natives and only u fowfalrwe ! , ternors.
As it was the market on beeves could only
bo quoted steady. A pretty fair bunch of
western cattle brought $2.70 , and some light
natives $3.1. * > nnd $3.50. If the run both hero
und at eastern points can be kept down for
a few days there Is no apparent reason why
thuro should not be some little Improvement.
Cow stuff was quite plenty nnd holders
were asking firm prices , but the general trade
was only steady. There was a good deal of
activity In the stocker nnd feeder market ,
nnd nbout everything in the yards of that
description was cleaned up before the close.
Some holdovers sold lOe higher than was
offered for them yesterday. During the
heavy run of a few days neo buyers ap
peared to be afraid to tuko hold , but as the
supply diminishes they buy uioro freely.
I loirs.
There was not much change In the general
market to-itay on hogs. Light hbgs were
scarce nnd although there was a pretty
good shipping demand , the shippers did not
get many. The best light sorts sold prlnci-
pnllyafjyi.fti. The market on heavy hogs
siiowedsomelitllo strength and there were
cases whuro salesmen thought theywercblo ; |
to get a little moro than yesterday , The
feeling ut the close was hardly so strong.

THIS COl i'I3lt SITUATION.
The announcements that the grand copper
combination has been completed have been
irematuro , to say the least , says the Iron
Age. The general clan has bcon worked out ,
liowover , and there really seems to bo soiuo
prospect that it will be given a trial. There
is always a possibility , of course , that
there will bo uoino liitchci over
the details , and that some con
cerns may not bu Induced to
enter Into the pool , probably acting in thobo-
lief that they may take ad vantage of its bene
fits without bearing any of its burdens. So
far as can bo ascertained at this writing
110110 of the mines to bo heard from are indi
vidually very largo , but ut least ono of them
Is important enough to create a feeling of
discomfort. With u few exccptlons.however ,
the American companies appear to have
fallen into ljuo , the large holders of copper ,
to whom the load carried by the Society des
Motuux and the Comptolr < l' Kscotnpio was
transferred , seem willing to co-opcr-
ute , und > some headway has bcon
mudo with the great Europoau companies.
It is not to be wondered nt that the American
companies give- least trouble. Tuoy tire sup
posed to be uulo to take euro of tha home
market without much danger of interfer
ence. The special device by which this is to
bu done Is the old pool sale arrangement of
the days of lake supremacy , expanded to in
clude the Montana and Arizona mines. To
prevent any irregularities ttio lake copper
is all to bo sold pro rata by a New York
broKcr and the casting brands by a liulti-
moro firm. The doling out of the metal to
consumers and tlio establishment ot prices
is to bo in the hands of an autocratic com
mittee composed of Colonel Llvcrmore , of
tbo Calumet and IIclci mine ; J. B.'Iiuggan ,
of the Anaconda , and W. Koyrer , who is
identified with Arizona interests. H ap
pears that linen are to bo inflicted
to punish any infractions of the agree
ment. Ouo cause of irregularity
which grew out of the interest of out : mine
in u copper rolling-mill has boon removed ,
through the fact that the mill in question has
Joined tha association of copper manufac
turers. Even with u few of the smaller mill
ing companies enjoying the fruits which fall
to the lot of free lances , the plan seems qulto
capable of outliving dangers to its existence
for uwnllo , provided that the price is kept
moderate , and ptovidod that the foreign
markets are kept in shape ,
The bulk of the stock of copper hero and
abroad is controlled by great banking
houses. It Is stated that the IJanquo do
Franco is carrying 00,000 tons , tlio Itoths-
chllds 40,000 ions , the Buuque do Paris
85,000 tons , and Haron Hirscli 20,000 tons.
Uesides , the Darings have a irrgo stock ot
Montana copper , the Boston und Montana ,
company continuing to deliver its outuut on
the old uocieto contracts to that banking
concern. The holders of the Rothschilds
are considered to bo well taken euro of , since
that house is now virtually the owner of the
great manufacturing plants of the Seccte des
Alctaux , consuming , us they do , upward of
25,000 tons of copper annually. It is under
stood that the present owners of the sociote
stock in this country have agreed to ship it
aboard , and undertake to keep it there , pro
vided thut the American mines will not ex
port moro than u given quantity annually ,
say nbout 80,000 gross tons. In other wotds.
the banking houses will let us alone and
turn over the American market to homo
producers , providing the latter will keep
tbelr shipments to Europe within bounds.
Hut even that concession is inadequate , s'o
fur as the American mines lire concerned ,
They have a deep interest in the foreign
markets for two reasons. Their surplus
muat bo sold there and within certain limits
prices must follow the courau of values
thoro. Whatever agreements might be made
on this sldo they could not long outlive free
competition in Kurope. It ii understood
that this contingency is to be met by a re
striction of output on the part of loading
mines contributing to the European markets.
The whole plan is so huge , und Is besut
with bo many dangers and dllllcultlcs , thut
few , oven among the copper producers , are
sanguine as to its continuance for any
lengthy period. Manufacturers in this
country , when the time for pool sales does
come , will bo offered the ueuul guarantees
that during the time of delivery the murket
will be sustained. Neither they nor con
sumers generally will bo rush enough to buy
for more than their immediate wants. 'Ihoy
huvo all learned to get along with very low
stocks und will not change thulr policy so
long ns tliQ prices are kept much above the
10-uor-cont level ,
