There was n big boom In the corn market on Ihe Produce exchange today , which Impnitcd Itself to the other grnln miirkets nnd caused a strong closing nil around. The corn ring was transferred nt times Into n howling crowd of operntom with a hubbub which rivalled the dealings In wheat. Corn had been advanced on diy weather news for some days , but late ycsteiday was weakened consldeiably by weather predictions of rains through the corn belt last night. They failed to m-ilerlnllze and as n result the mnrkel toilny was a regular "Ilieworks" affair nnd closed from ' ,4c to 2c nlx > ve last night , with a change of about 2c during Ihe day. No hope Is given of any rain and crop dispatches arc glowing woise every day. Already the price of corn Is within Pie of the price of wheat.

NEW YOIIIC , Aug. 1. This was another dull day on the Stock exchange , ami the general trend of speculation wan In the di rection of lower figures. The clilef op erators In the market were the bears , and the conditions favored them. The eecming Irreconcilable difference : ! between the tennta and houao on the tariff bill , giving promise of an extended session ot congress and there by keening the financial and commercial community In a state of uncertainty , cannot bo regarded as an Inducement to stocks for a rise. The condition of the corn crop Is not such , according to the most favorable advices , us to lead to the opinion that the granger roads will bo tested severely as to their currying capacity to bring It to market. Hold shipments are still being made , nnd the treasury gold reserve Is declin ing with a steadiness which Is looked upon with disfavor , to say the least , by the finan ciers of the country and the financial olQoers of the government. Hut with all these un favorable elements the stock market ulves no evidence of Inherent weakness. Particu lar stocks glvo way under Influences affect ing them alone , and under the manipulation ut cliques groups of stock depreciate In value , ouly to recover whoa th manufac tured pressure to cell Is removed. Hut n general liquidation Is In progrei * , there I no apparent desire on the part of-the hold era of stocks to sacrifice them In , the fen that the bottom Is about to drop out of th market. On the contrary , while lower value have been established , the declines Imv been largely manipulated , nnd It hns re ( Itilrod heavy short tales to bring out small amount of long stock. It IB a fac that many of the leading shnrca arc no heavily oven-old , and In some of them th short Interest Is unyielding. For the lias few days Sugar nnd the granger stocks Imv been the only ones In which there has bee any active trading , nnd as n rule they hnv moved In opposite directions , Sugar gain down while the grangers were moving tir and vice versa. This stoiik broke 1 % per con to 71 % , and closed within U per cent a the lowest point touched. The granger were weak on a selling movement whlc was directed from Chicago and principal ! against Uurllngton A Quincy. This sloe broke 1 % per cent to 71 % and closed wlthli Vi per cent ot the lowest point totichctl Rock Island was also offered down , recedln Hi per cent to G3V& , nnd recovering Vi PC cent. Northwestern lost Vi per cent , clos Ing nt the lowest. St. Paul woa held wel until the attack , giving way only % pe cent and regaining H per cent. The trans actions were large In Sugar , which In th opening dealings declined ' , i per cent , bu quickly recovered nnd on good buying ad vanced H4 per cent to 104 % , closing U pe csnt from the highest. Oregon Improve incut declined 1 per cent. In the rest o the shares traded In the movement wu merely fractional. The market , which wn Irregular throughout the day , closed fatrl ; steady at a partial recovery from thu bet torn llgures. The bond market was hcav ; during the day nml closed weak. The Evening Post nays : The speculaIIv situation for the markets are nothing a the moment but n mirrior of profcsslona movements may be summed up as follows A strong nnd aggressive clique of operator has gone to work breaking down stocks am advancing corn. In stocks they cannot conn on selling from Investor ) ! , but on the othe hand they do not fear Investment buying With sentiment In Its present shape a sud den breaking of the senate deadlock woulc check their venture Instantly , but they taki this chance , and have not yet mlsrcckoned.

CATTLE There was really no market o dressed beef steers. The offerings were llgt and neither shippers nor packers were It cllned to buy anything , the latter being I poor shape to operate while their butchers ai on a strike. A few head were reported t sold , but they were light , half-fat stuff nn would not ordinarily be classed as drtsso beef steers. There was a little more doln In butchers stock , but the market was e. ' tremcly dull nnd the demand very llgh There were very few really desirable cattl and the market on such might be called nboi steady , but the more common grades an rough stock wns weak to lOe lower. Thet was some Inquiry for stackers nnd feeder from the country , and them was some trat' ' Ing In this class of cattle. The general tnai ket was about steady. In a general way : may be said that the market Is very dull an It Is hardly to be expected that there > v ! bo much Improvement until the outcome c the labor troubles Is better understood.

The mar ket as a whole did not show much changi as compared with yesterday. If anythlnf the best hogs sold a little stronger , whlli the common , trafehy stuff was weak.

The Northwest ern Miller says : Minneapolis mills last week ground 171,120 barrels of Hour , against 153,000 the week before. Shortage of water power Is badly handicapping them. There appears to have been more life to the Hour market last week , und though very low prices had to be accepted , the sales re ported approximated 220,000 barrels. There wns quite free selling for export. The do mestic trade still consists In the mnln of sinull orders tlmt lire to be quickly turned over again. Export shipments were 40,000 barrels , ngnlnst 31,000 barrels the week the year before. The SuperKir-Dnliith mills made 05,021 barrels , against r,2,4Sl , barrels the previous week. Seven mills are this week producing at the rate of 10,000 barrels dally. Flour sales were inodcrntu last wei'k. The export market Is dull ; stock of Hour nt the mills and In transit Is 21,200 barrels. The Mll- wntikeo mills ground 28,207 barrels , against 2U.G38 barrels the week before.
