    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.
The leading futures ranged as follows :

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.

FRUITS.
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.

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. Representative sales :
