THE OMAHA DAILY M& frliiDNRSDAY , JULY 25 , I80i. COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL Low Price of Wheat Tempted Shorts and They Covered for a Time , FIRMNESS PREVAILED EARLY IN THE DAY Opening In Corn Wu < i Irregular but Firm , Attributed to OuUltle Buying Out * Wcro Higher at the blurt. CHICAGO , July 24. Tito 16w priceof wheat tempted shorts today anil they cov ered for a time , with the result that the market was firm until near the close. A rumored shipment of wheat from Toledo hero knocked down the advance , however , and September closed > , c lower. Corn closed V4o higher and oats unchanged. Provisions closed firm at a slight advance { or pork. In wheat there was an active trade , with the volume of business ( jultc heavy. Initial transactions wcro about at yesterday's final figures , September opening at DS'/ic , and after selling down Ifcc , rallied tec , declined Ic , ruled steadier and closed steady at 63'Jc. Thcro was not quite BO much pressure on the market at the start and offerings wcro < inlto well absorbed , some of the professional shorts covering , but the liquidation waa heavy and was quite a feature. Outside markets were rather steadier , but cables were weak and 12d lower. The weather abroad was reported as unsettled and exceedingly wet In Kng- land and was something of n feature. The decline after a rally toward noon was due to a report that a charter had been made at Toledo to bring a cargo of wheat to this point. The opening In corn was Irregular at 44c for September , an advance of from Vic to % c , but gradually sold down from Ic to IVic , rallied Ic , ruled steady nnd closed at 43c. The early strength and firmness was attributed to outside buying orders. There was local buying on the con tinued dry weather awl high temperatures through the corn belt , but at the advance there was heavy realizing by longs In gen eral , which resulted In a material decline. Then good buying sot In and most of the loss was recovered. Oats were higher at the start on good buying , but declined later when the de mand slackened up. Buying at the decline caused n reaction and the close was steady. The range was lie for September. Provisions were generally firm all day on covering and n scarcity of offerings. Compared with last night September pork Is lOc higher and September lard and ribs unchanged. Freight quotable at % c for wheat or corn to Buffalo.

Condition of Tridu niul ( Jiintntloiit on Stnpln niul l't\ i toy Prjdncn , nggs remained about iteady yesterday at the advance noted the previous day. The market on poultry was weak and hardly quotable so high on old fowls and prlng chickens. The supply of good liny Is becoming lighter nnd the mnikct In consequence Is hrmor on the best grades. The supply of off grades Is ntlll qulle targe , The presenl recelpls of all grades aic light. An advance of DOc will be noted for the top. The hay crop through Ihc nnrlhwest Is pretly generally light , especially upland prairie , while In Ihu lowlands It Is of fair quality nnd not so coarse ns ununl. Of Ihe Inller II In cxpcelcd theic will be more than the usual proportion , due to Ihu small crop of upland. In many parts farmers are troubled lo sciape up enough lo supply Ihe local requirement , while In other places there In a fair surplus for uhlpmenl. No- briipku Is worse off for hay Ihan Minnesota and North Dnkoln owing In Ihe drouth being more general In this slale , and , like South Dakota , many pnrta will be very short In quantity to ninet the lininu demand. The weather through all these slates has been line for securing It nnd the quality Is good.Vnshlnglon , Idaho , Montana nnd Oregon generally report good hay crops nnd In some a heavy yield in secured. New England has harvested a fair crop In line condition , although light In pome portions. In New York , I'cnnpl\iinln nnd New Jersey the crop was mostly good nnd generally well secured. Delaware Is nhoit to some extent from drouth , ns well no Virginia , Kentucky nnd Tennessee. Hay crop was fair In pails Of Missouri and gen- ernlly secured well , but pnsluinge Is badly dtled up , excepting where there have been a few Into showers. Hay Is well taken care of In Ohio , Michigan , Indiana , llKnols , Iowa nnd Wisconsin , with under nn average yield for the nggregnte , although fair In quantity , excepting In Iowa , which Is short In considerable pi-rtlons. The cnllre ciop of Ihe counlry appe.us lo be below the aver.ige In quantity , but thi > qu.ility Is apparently above an nvernge of other years , us It Is line In lexlure and necured under fav orable conditions of weather. In such no states ns Wyoming , Colorado , New Mexico , Arizona and t'tah there N n good nver.ige. In Knn. s late report * say hay Is now genernllj In the liny barns and has proved n fair crop. I'ralrla meadows nnd paptures are now In need of lain. In Illinois haying , except In some of the noithoin counties , Is piactlcally com pleted , but the yield Is generally light. This ciup has been secured In good condition. Much timothy hay baa been made In southern Ohio and eceurcil In good condition , though Ihe crop Is light. The second crop of clover Is starting very slowly. I'nsturcs are short nnd dry. North- em Ohio leporls hay making In full progress , with extraordinarily favorable weather nnd n llghl yield nf fair lo excellent quality. Pas tures have been Injuied by dry weather. In the central counties baying Is progressing rapidly , Ihe crop being llghl but quality good. I'nslures are gelling very shorl nnd drying up. In Indiana haying continues uninterruptedly , , wUh vpiy favorable weather , and the culling will soon end. Timothy In many localities Is belter thnn expected , though Ihe yield Is short. Pastur- ngc Is gelling very dry. In Missouri Ihe second crop of clover Is being Injured in some localities by thu drouth. Pastures nre drying up nnd In a number of counties farmers nro obliged lo haul water for their stock. Haying Is well nlong In Iowa , In some localities finished. The crop Is llghl , but In good condition. Pnslures nre very dry , nnd In somn places stock Is being fed. Slock water gelling very low. Haying was about completed during Ihe week In Kentucky nnd reports from all sections of tin- stale Indi cate n short yield , many corrcspondenls reportIng - Ing but half n ciop. The quality of the crop Is reported to be very poor , It being very short nnd weedy. Pastuics are suffering very seriously from drouth , and In many sections are reporled to be completely dried up.

Two cars of fruit , one from California and the other from Washington , were offered lit Ihe auction sale yesterday. A good share i\f the fruit was lee ripe nnd hardly suitable for ship ping out In the counlry on orders. The Washington car C3ntnlncd 124 plums. 427 apricots nnd 642 pea.clies. The plums were large nnd the peaches were pretty fair. The apri cots were Ihe smallest ever seen here. Some of Ihem were lltlle If nny larger than good cher ries. They weru all wrapped but there were two or three In each paper. Wnshlnglon shippers could learn a good deal about boxing , marking and shipping Irult from Cnllfonila shippers. The California car conlalned 49 plums , 230 nprl- cols and 843 peaches. The car had evldcnlly been on the rend for some time , ns the fiult was , much of It , very soft. The peaches brought prctly fair prices , the California selling about 23c per box higher than the Washington. As n whole the sale was qulle sallsfactory. On Wednesday two cars of fruit are reponed to arrive. It Is expecled Ihere will be a full car of pears. Commencing with today the fruit auction sales will be held at 11 o'clock. The prospects would seem to favor n large run of fruit from Ihls lime on. Shipments have been held back for so l.ing a lime Ihat growers nre very anxious lo place Ihclr fruit on Ihe market. , The berry season appears to be about over , aa only a few blackberries nre now m riving. The Iowa blackberry crop , which promised so much , will bo an almost total failure without rain In the next day or two. On exposed hillsides they are ruined now , but where they have some shade Ihero will bo a few tolerably line berries. It is snld that the Wisconsin blueberry crop Is very short and that cranberries will be n failure on anything like dry marshes. STRAWHERRIES-None. APPLES Good stock , per bbl. , J2.60O3.00.

STOCKS AND HONDS. There WIM n Marked Dt-crrnso In Ilio Volume of lluslnr n. NEW YORK , July 24. There wns n marked decrease In the volume of business on the Stock exchange to-Jny , but the specu lation wan firmer In tone and there was a partial rovovcry of the low of yesterday , wlillo In moat Instances a higher range of values was esubllsslicd than prevailed before - fore yesterday's break. Sugar was a notable exception and lost the greater portion tion of yesterday's gain. The Atchlson affair still stirs the street , and the specu lative fraternity looked anxiously this after noon for Expert Little's report , which It was expected would bo presented to the meeting of tha reorganization committee called for 1 o'clock. When the meeting entered on Its session It was announced that the report was not completed : that Mr. Uttle hail only Just begun the work on the eastern books and that he would not have finished his examination of them be fore next week. The state'ment that the In vestigation already had shown an over statement of receipts for the past five years of more than $7,000,000 was verified , but no explanation has yet been offered and Little declines to make public In what way It was done , whether by means of re bates or commlcslons , or both. The com mittee. also refuses to talk In advance of the presentation of the complete report. Atchlsnn stock had advanced % per cent from yesterday's closing , mainly on pur chases to cover short contracts , while the bonds have recovered 1 to l'/4 per cent in the face of some small foreign selling. Sugar was very strong In the early dealings and large purchases of the shares were made on the general expressed opinion that Senator Gorman's speech made it very nearly certain tlmt sugar was sure of pro tection In the tariff bill or that the meas ure would fall. An advance of % per cent was made , followed by 'a reaction of 1 to 1 % per cent. Then came reports of prob able compromise on the sugar schedule , which sent the shares down 2V6 per cent , the last being the lowest price of the day and 1 % per cent below yesterday's closing figures. Distilling fluctuated within a margin of % per cent , touching 18 % In the morning and 18 % In the afternoon and clos ing within U I'er cent of the top price and 1'A per cent above yesterday'H closing. London bought St. Paul more freely in the opening trading , causing a fractional ad vance , of which H per cent was lost In the final sales , the 'advance on the day being Vi per cent. Burlington & Qulncy gained U per cent and Northwestern % per cent , while Uock Island lost % per cent. The general market was Irregular on very light dealings , but closed fairly firm. The other gains and losses were fractional. The bond market was firm to strong. The Evening Post says : Beyond a passIng - Ing sentimental Influence there Is no rea son to believe that the renewed decline in wheat has Influenced security prices. The 4 per cent break within a week has found virtually no reflection In prices even of the granger stocks.

TUESDAY , July 24. There were 2,250 cattle , 11,160 hogs and 279 sheep received today , as against 918 cat tle , 4,928 hogs and 820 sheep yesterday. Thus fur this week the receipts have been In excess of the receipts lost week , the total for the two days past being 3,150 cattle , 16,050 hogs and 1.0D9 sheep , against 1,595 cattle , 8,445 hogs , and 1,692 sheep for the corresponding days of the week be fore. fore.CATTLE CATTLE Out of the total number of cat tle received there were twelve loads of Texans billed direct to the packers. The general market was slow and fully lOc and In some cases 15o lower. Some 1,233 and 1,214-lb. beeves brought $1.30 , which was the top price paid for the day. The bulk of the good cattle sold at from $4 to $4.25 , while the half fat stuff went largely at from $3.45 to $3.CO. The market did not gain any In strength as the day passed , but If anything was the weakest at the close. The trading In butchers' stock , cannerB , etc. , was limited very largely t < r the sale of odds and ends , only a few straight loads changing hands. Desirable stock In thle line was not at all plenty , the most of the cattle offered being decidedly common. The market Is very low on anything common. Only a few sales of cows were made at prices above $2. The market Is oversupplied - supplied with veal calves and offerings of such are neglected to a considerable extent. There has probably never been a time in the year past when stackers and feeders could bo bought as low as at the present time. The dry weather In the country has made the pastures so short that there la quite a rush to sell while buyers are few and far between. The market today was no lower , but It was a repetition of the experience of the past few days a slow , weak market. Light stock cattle are selling at from $1.75 to $2.25 , while good to cholcu feeders can be had at from $2.60 to $2.90. Representative sales : DRESSED HEEF. HOGS The large run of hogs predicted yesterday materialized today. There were , however , a good many sblpplng orders , In addition to the requirements of. the local packers , nnd the market opened active at an advance- G@10c. The bulk of the best hogs soon changed hands at the advance noted. Later , as the most urgent orders were filled and some of the buyers commenced to drop out , the market weak ened and closed slow with the advance lost. A few loads wcro still left unsold at the close. The great majority of the hogs sold at $1.75 to $4.85 , as against $4.70 to $4.75 yesterday , anil $4.95 to $5 on Tuesday of last week.
