steady , and the general market was In
cllncd to follow corn. Local professional
nnd New York led In the buying , and tin
northwest sent a good nlmre of thu sclllni
orders , while advices from the spring whca
territory were very favorable. Cables wen

At the auction sale yesterday afternoon a cm
nf California pears and plums wan cllsp-ifnl of.
Prices were not materially changed. The other
cars expected did not uirlve In time.
Although It Is a little early yet , fruit men are
commencing to talk about the ei-npe crop. Last
season a Rood many eastern urapes found thtlr
wav west , and the tradu has come to be quite
an Important fcatuie In the fruit buBlners. ThH
year there Is every Indlcntiun of one of thP
heaviest grape yields ever known In the Krle-
ChautaiKiua county ( New Yi.-iU gitipe belt , lie-
ports from Ounltlik arc that while last year
UKyi | > ld was much larcer than that at any pre
ceding year , conservative estimates place tlit-
present season's crop fully one-tlfth greater than
that of laat year. Thu grapu union Is can'lder.t '
that the prices will be a little betlPi- Hum Infl
yenr , as new markets are constantly b Ini ; opencl
up for M Is season's piodnct. Many of the In-
dlvldu&l shippers secured belter prices last year
than did those who sold their pioluct ; tliiough
the union , but the expense of shipping w.it
greater , nnd on the whole the members of the
union came out of thu deal In beltir shape than
those who depended upin their own letouiceu.

NEW YORK , Aug. 1. 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. A month ugn It looked
n.s If this year's crop would be a phenomenally
large one , _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Another Hull Dny Mttrliod tlio Spcciilutkvn
lci\llng VcHtonlay.
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

The report that the packing house me

cutting down the receipts , as only about 01
cattle , 9,900 hogs and 34 sheep were receive
today. This was a heavy falling off as con
pared with yesterday , when 2,010 cattle , 20
GS4 hogs and S59 sheep were received , Tl
total receipts for the first three days of tl
present week are G.C50 cattle , -12,760 hoj

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

MINNEAPOLIS , Aug. 1. 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. They nru
drawing wheat from Chicago by lake to
grind. Foreign trade seems disposed to
make low prices on the basis of 17s Gil for
patents , London. Thu market In the east
Is unfavorable , an a rule.
