CHICAGO , Aug. SO.-Anxlety on the part
of the September shorts on account of the
email amount of contract stock In store
hero held wheat steady today. September
closed 1-SSUc higher und December rose
1-Sc. Corn gained 1-Sc. Oats are unchanged
to 1-Sc up. Pork and lard unchanged arid
ribs Improved 2'ic.
Receipts of wheat In the northwest nnd at
Chicago were heavy , nnd Liverpool , bcforo
tha day's business commenced here , had
declined -Vid for September and ' /id for De
cember wheat. For these reasons there wug
porno dcsiro to neil at the opening for some-
tvl'ut less than the prices current nt the
clcso yesterday , but that rather general
wish was no sooner gratified than It was
Ijclng repented of. It soon became evident
from the number of buyers nt the slight
dccllno at the start that shorts were numer
ous nnd their fcellngH far from satisfied
with their position. Receipts here were 4SS
earn , against 111 hist year. Minneapolis nnd
diluth received 859 cars , compared with 5C1
the year before. The receipts at domestic
winter wheat markets were still sutllclently ,
flmaller than those of last year to rather '
moro than offset the moro liberal arrivals
In the nort'i\ve t. The tntai at the prl'i-
cijil : we.iiorii markets \MIS l.cWl.'fK ' ) bu. ,
iigalnst 1,053,000 bu. for the corresponding
lay of the year before. News from abroad
was , In the main , of a bullish character.
Liverpool cabled that weather In thu United
Kingdom was unsettled and crop reports
from Russia were still of a disappointing
character. The feeling In cash wheat was ,
easy und prices ruled from He to Ic a bu.
lower. The Atlantic port exports were 430I I
< W bu. In wheat and Hour. Ono point In the
day's Htatlstlral developments attracted a
Kood deal of attention und added to the
llrmness that generally prevailed In the
pit was the small quantity of contract
wheat In Chicago regular elevators , the
total being under 70.00U bu. That , of course ,
principally affected shorts for September.
Hoptember opened ttc lower at G37-8z61c ,
declined to G3c , advanced to Cl 5-8c nnd
nold nt 613-Sc at the close. December
Htarted 1-Sc down at Gl CCl 7-8c , Improved
to G2Vi < gC2 3-8c , then reacted to C2foG2 1-Sc , the
closing prlco.
Corn was strong , duo to the continuation
and reiteration of previous Items .from the
country concerning what was claimed to be
the very uncompromising outlook for the
crop. Another hot wave was predicted for
tomorrow , and an the reports of damage
have been from haut already , moro of It
niado traders apprehensive. September
opened l-SfT'4c ( down ut VWttSOc , advanced I
to 30 3-8o and closed ut 30 1-SySOVic buyers.
Oats ruled steady with corn , but the
fluctuations were narrow. The bulk of the
business done wns changing from Septem
ber to December nt a premium of l-8c for
* ho former. September began unchanged
iU 19 7-Sc , rose to 20 1-Sc and closed at 19 7-S
A. fair amount of speculative. mislnc 3 was
doiio In provisions and moro than usual of
It on orders from outside. The chief feu-
turo of the business from the manufactur
ers' .volnt of view was the excellent and
licavy demand for cash products. Prices
kept \vlthln n narrow range nnd about
maintained themselves.
KstlmaMed receipts for tomorrow are :

1'rlocn Avltli Iiullirerciit SUCCCKH.
NEW YORK , Aug. 30. The bears attempted -
tempted to continue tholr campaign against
prices of stocks today. Their efforts were
nt orro time attended with moderate suc
cess. But before the day's session had
ended -they found themselves under the
pressure of advancing prices and they were
obliged themselves to contribute lo the ud-
viincu by buying to cover short contracts.
There were several elements ) of thu situa
tion In their favor. There was continued
tlrmnesB In thu rules for money and con
tinued losses by the banks to the sub-
treasury to pay for government bond allot
ments , causing apprehension of a money
squeeze nt a later period. There was also
some evidence that the opening advance
In prices was manipulated to afford op
portunity for prollt taking , thus giving en
couragement to the bears. During thojlrrtt
hour acute depression developed In the
coalers on account of the report from Phil
adelphia that tide water prices for antliia-
clto had been cut 2Go and that the com
panies had abandoned the effort to control
the trade this season. Losses In-the group
uxtuifded to 3Vi p"er cent , und coupled
with weakness In some of the specialties
broke the whole market to prlceii ma
terially below last night's level. The liur-
llngton statement for July , showing a small
IncreasB 1I 1 in gross earnings wiped , out moro
1i than I live times over by the Increase In
operating i expenses , was used by the bears ,
' although the St. Paul statement , showing
uctual falling olt for July in gross earn
ings , has long since been counteracted by
thu Increases for that road shown by the
August tralllc returns. Burlington's de
tailed statement nlso showed that while
freight earnings decreased on account of
the light grain movement there was an In
crease of over $107,0(10 In tit- passenger
earnings , reflecting the impiovement In
general business and the more prosperous
conditions. Nevertheless Burlington lagged
In the Into recovery. There was evidence
of powerful support In many stocks at a
level slightly below yesterday's prices und
there was large general buying also In
vited by any decline. Evidence of this In
fluenced the recovery. Buying for London
account , which held a number of interna
tional favorites llrm nearly all day , also
formed an effective point of resistance.
There were authoritative denials lutu In
the day on behalf of the officials of the
roaleru of any extensive prlco cutting.
Further weakening of exchange gave prom
ise of early gold Imports , though the re
ported buying of gold In London yester
day for Now York account was not con
firmed. There wus some growth also of
assuraaics that tightness in the money
mark t would be soon relieved by the early
distribution of the new government 3 per
cents. This distribution will servo to re
lease largo loans made by Now York banks
to Interior banks for payments of sub-
ocrlptlons to the bonds. All these factors
tended to the recovery In stocks and a
late break of 3 points In Manhattan caused
only a fractional reaction of the general
list , which closed at a net gain In nearly
all cases.
Some of the speculative bonds .reacted
early In sympathy with stocks , but prices
generally recovered before the clcse. To
tal sales , $3,035,000. United States 3s , when
Issued , declined 1-S per cent in the bid
price. Government bonds were otherwise
unchanged.
The Evening Post's London financial ca
blegram Hays : The stock markets hero
were Irregular today and the tone was
less firm. The chief feature was the llat-
ness ou the Paris bourse , which was said
to bo duo to the unfavorable French In
terpretation of the czar'H peace message.
This weakness was doubtless assisted by
the approaching monthly settlement , to
morrow being option day. Americans
opened dull In sympathy with New York
prices , milled on continental support , then
weakened nnd finally closed good on the
resumption of New York buying. In spite
of the dullness Interest In Americans hero
tends to spread. There , was further strong
buying o Argentine securities today by
English houses. These stocks were scarce
and the rise was considerable. Grand
Trunk was lower on fears pf a bad revenue
statement. Spanish 4s are fiat on Paris
dullness. The New York demand for gold
hern continues , but orders which existed
to take eagles from the Bank of England
today were canceled for the moment. The-
London discount rate Is 1 5-8 per cent for
tha apot and 1 % per cent for American
bills to arrive.

CATTLE The market on beef steers was
just about steady on all kinds and fairly
active , so tlmt the offerings for the most
part changed hands early In the morning.
The offerings were small us compared with
yesterday and the kind of cattle was dif
ferent , the most of them today being corn-
feds Instead of western grussers. All told
thpro were a few over twenty loads of
cornfed steers , none of them choice , but
with quite a sprinkling of fairish stuff , such
as Is selling at about $5.00. There wore
only eight or ten loads of westerns good
enoURh for the killers.
Something like twenty to twenty-five
loads constituted thu day's supply of cows
and heifers and the market on that kind
of cuttle was certainly no more than steady
and In many cases weak to a little lower.
The demand appeared to be qulto good on
the part of local packers and the most of
the stuff on sale was weighed up In good
season. A string of western cows sold at
$2.90 and there were others good enough
to bring considerably more than $3.00 , hut
there were no bunches to compare with
thn western heifers which sold at $1.00
yesterday.
In the feeder division the feeling was
considerably better. There were not so
many cattle on sale us yesterday , while
there appeared to bo a good many more
buyers In the yards , Under the circum
stances speculators were good buyers and
they took hold eurly and soon hud the
pens cleared at prices that wore generally
u little stronger on the desirable kinds.

HOGS Light hogs sold a shade stronger
this morning , under the Influence of the
very active demand and the moderate re-
colpts of that kind. The buyers were not
long In picking up everything on the light
order that was at nil desirable. In order
to" get the light on som" loads they occa-
Bionally paid pretty good prices for mixed
loafls that averaged wrll up so that the
sales will show Dome heavy loads at good
prices. Light mixed loads sold largely nt
$3.76. and from that up to $3.80 , while
I strictly good light loads that would not
' require sorting brought $3.SOf3.S5. Skips
i nnd trash sold down to J3.65W3.67 i. The
market on heavy hogs was not much
changed from what It was yesterday and
both buyers nnd sellers were generally
. quoting It us „ steady. Good heavy loads
I sold largely at $3.70 , and up to J3.72'i , with
. loads on the rough order at J3.65it3.67H-
The demand for heavy hogs was not so
1 active as was the market on light weights
und sellers seemed to ho In no particular '
hurry to fill orders for that kind. Still ;
there was a. fair movement and about '
i everything changed hands In good season.
The table at head of column will show
i tlmt the nveraijo prlco at which the hogs
! Bold today was a little higher than ycster-
day and pretty well up to the record of a
week ape , but about Gc lower than two
weeks ago. The tables will also show that
, while the receipts were larger than a week
ago , they were not up to the largo run of
two weeks ago. Representative wales :
