Wheat today made th best figures around the opening. It was near the. . bottom nt the close and showed n decline ot ViBVie. Corn declined \\K. \ Oats was strong nnd advanced He. Provisions closed Unchanged to 2',4c ' higher. The effect of the unexpectedly bullish government crop report given out Saturday waa apparent nt th > opening In whea't ' , but it wits soon shown that other Influences had superseded It In the minds of speculators. The opening In July ranged all they way from 7GHIi'77c , compared -with Saturday's closing prito ot 75'fcc. U sold at once at 7GVic. but rallied almost Immediately to 7Gc. Hut In this little siiasm of nervous ness was dissipated all the effect of the government report. Selling wan heavy on the bulge. Commission houses were In the market with toig lots. For n short time th ? mnikct held up under the liquidation , but Iinally broke. 7 ' , &c b.lng reached before any reaction occunvd. Heavy Hour sales re ported from the northwest caused a cessa tion of Ilituidntlon from that section , but In the meantime local holders had apparently lost conlldence and the offerings * at all time * exceeded the demand. Th" enormous western movement became the one factor n * 'the session advanced. iM I mi en polls and Duluth reported arrivals of 'Ji& cars , against ksl cars last week nnd ISO cars a year ago. Chicago receipts were 142 cars , 8 of which graded contract quality. The visible Increase crease- amounted to 1,416,000 bu. . about what wn expected , and this tholped In pressing prlos to a lower level. World's shipments lor the week were 7.H10.000 hit. Atlantic port clearances Amounted to 350,000 bu. The Manitoba government report gave an In creased wheat acreage , with an almost per- fi-i-t condition. Domestic crop news was un favorable ns regards winter wheat , but favorable as to spring wheat. The market became very weak toward the close on the estimate of receipts of 400 cars tomorrow. July Iinally sold down to 76c and closed at ' ' Corn 'ca'rly was steady with wheat. Fear that the strike In Huffnlo would again Involve - volvo the elevators weakened the market later and prices gradually slid off. Liberal receipts , light shipping demand nnd gen- cinlly favorable weather were factors In 'the ' decline. Receipts were SS4 cars. July ranged from 33V&tt34c and closed \'tc lower flints' ' " Was 'independently strong. There was again a good demand , mainly for the deferred futures , some of it for foreign ac count , nnd this nnd the bullish government crop rwiport sustained prices during the decline clineof other grains. S'lllng was scat tered. Receipts were IS" cars. July ranged from 23V4c to 23IA'323c ' nnd closed % o higher ut 23)ic. Provisions were steady , considering the largo run of hogs and lower yard prtess. There was a moderate general buying de mand and sellng was scattered. Trade on the whole was small nnd prices kept within a narrow range. At th close July pork wns unchanged at $8.03 ; July lard , 2fce ! higher at $ l.9Ti'4.371,4 , and July ribs , 2'ic higher nt $4.621,4. , Estimated reclpts Tuesday : Wheat , -100 cars ; corn , SGO cars ; oats , 310 cars ; hogs , 22,000 head.

American Strrl mill AllllliUlnnn the Cent IT of .MtrniMlon. NBW YORK , Juno 12.-Thero wns ovl- denco of large buying by powerful finan cial Interests In a limited number of stocks and of manipulation to ndvancc prices In the stock market today. Speculation other wise was In a somewhat quiescent state. Outside of the special eases where prices were supported , the tone was * rather heavy. ilnny of the railroads ranged downward within the limits of a point during the. early trading. There was orgonlited buying throughout the day of Federal Steel , which was marked up nearly 3 points nnd closed almost at the top. There wns some senti mental effect exerted by this on other steel stocks American Steel nnd Wire respond ing late In the day on covering shorts. But none of the gains In the group wore well held outside of Federal Stfccl. The so- called Flower stocks were all well sup ported nnd Brooklyn Transit shared Its strength with Metropolitan Street Railway nnd Manhattan. This group of New York Traction stocks showed the effects of realizing from time to time during the day and Manhattan was dragged below last night's close by Its weight. The Grangers were taken up at ono tlmo , St. Paul In the lend , but did not retain all of the gain and in somu Instances more than lost. The coalers wore pretty well sustained also. Other points of strength were Plttsburg , Cincinnati , Chicago and St. Louis , which rose 3i ; Chicago Terminal prefwrod , Den ver & Rlo Grande Issues nnd the newly is sued Wisconsin Central stocks. Sugar fluctuated up and down during the whole dav , but always above. Saturday's level. It rose at ono time 3 points , but lost It all before the close. There wns no evi dence of outside demand to keep thu mar ket up and the- railroad group showed Itself affected by the heavy tone of the foreign stock exchanges on account of political dls- qulot. The announcement of the resigna tion of the French ministry helped the late reaction In pricca. The engagement of nn additional $2,000,000 of gold for export tomorrow , although the probability of It had been Intimated , also weighed on the market. No effect was apparent In the money market , which continued decidedly easy , i-xchnngo also , though It hardened a shade , continues a broad fraction below the point where experts can figure a profit on gold exports. It Is , In fact , generally admitted that the gold movement Is duo to the actual buying of the gold In thla market to replenish the reserve of the Bank of England and probabiy also for Russian purposes. This is a precisely similar operation to that im- dcrtaken by the United States government through a syndicate to replenish the gold In the treasury during the last administra tion. It is to be noted that while the for eign money markets are thus drawing on New York for gold ns the most available source , New York banks are offering special inducements such as paying the expressnge on bills remitted by Interior correspondents to secure a supply of legal tender notes to meet the demand of active business condi tions. The market for railroad bonds was dull and sluggish and changes are mixed. Total sales , par value , $2,500,000. United Status 3s and the 5s declined ' /s In the bid price , Commercial Advertiser's London finan cial cablegram : The markets here were decidedly better today on more favorable news of the African situation. A rumor was circulated that England has bought and will shortly occupy Delagoa bay. Americans were above parity all day. New York bought at first , but later sold Atchlson preferred and Northern Paclllc common and the whole list dropped back , closing well below the best. Denver preferred and St. 1-nul were the strongest features. Louisville & Nashville- were In some re quest on dividend expectations. Spanish 4s wore 6I4 ; tlntos were 47' ; Anacondas were. 10i. The bunk bought JC231.000 American gold coin nnd 21,000 was withdrawn. Sil ver was weak. The following are thu closing quotations for the leading stocks on the New York exchange today : Offered. Th total sales of stocks today amounted to MS.3S2 shares , including : American Steel and Wlro.17.400 : Amerlron Steel preferred , 3,100 ; American Sugar.

It turned out , however , there were none too many to meet thj requirements of buyers , who cleaned the yards In good season. The opening on corn-fed steers wns rather slow , hut the market Improved as the morning advanced , and when the trade was oncti under way the market was fairly active. The close was a little stronger , espe cially on handy weight cattle. Packers acted asit - they wanted the cattle nnd the feelIng - Ing at the final wind-up waa very good. There were some pretty good cattle In the yards which sold at J5.00iij5.15. Ten or a dozen loud : * of cows and heifers were among the offerings of cattle today and brought good , steady prices , everything in that line being disposed of In a short tlmo after the market opened. Some good heifers sold at $4.65. Bulls , stags and rough stock sold In the same notches as at the close of last week. V-eal calves were In good demand at strong prices , the best scll- ingrnt $7.00. No stackers or feeders of any consequence quence were In the yards and there was very little doing in that division. Repre sentative sales : BEEF STEERS. No. Av. Pr. No. Av. Pr. No. Av.
