Manipulation on th weather started Rood bulge In grains to day and as a result September shorts were squeezed once mors. Contract wheat wai alack and there waa aome congestion In corn and oata. Other condition, however, were against an upturn. After the manipu lator had pushed price up well liquidation from the same hand brought recensions. In the end September wheat closed lc up, Beptember corn unchanged and (September oata lc higher. Provision cloaed 6c lower to fro higher. Wheat spurted partly on the fear of short and ralna in the spring harvest. Congestion In contract stock waa marked, with one house practically In control. The opening waa somewhat wild, with every body wanting stuff and offerings very light. That manipulation was practically the en tire cause for the upturn seemed reason able from the fact that the receipts primary, local, northwest and southwest were much heavier, that Argentine ship ments were Increased, tbat Hungarian and 'Roumanian crops were large and that ex porter offered freely, with few taker. Although Beptember waa the manipulated month, December profited today. After prices had been pushed up well, the holders (unloaded In Beptember and unspraddled their spreads by taking on December, Still December held to Its discount of over 3c September started SHo up at 70'44'7rc and sold to 71c. There waa a, dip to 7Nc, but Beptember closed Arm, 10 up, at 707fcc. J,ocal receipt were 118 cara, one of con tract grade, and Minneapolis and Dululb, reported 12 cars, making a total for the three point of 444 car, against 298 last week nd 422 a year ago. Primary receipt were 1,1X8,000 bu., against 969.OU0 last year. Seaboard clearance In wheat and flour . equaled 2S3,ono bu. Argentine shipment equated 240,000 bu., against 48,000 last week. Corn was helped by the strength In wheat. Trade waa not especially active, ' yet there was a good volume. The general rommlsslon house demand wii very good, Small receipts, 33 cara, and rain helped the bulls somewhat. Local shorts and the southwest covered briskly for a time, espe cially In December. The longs, however, fed the market and prices slumped off. Cables w.re lower. There was no con spicuous Belling. The cash demand was fair, but the crop prospect were still ex cellent. Beptember sold between SlHo and 62o and closed steady, unchanged, at 61c. Bains and manipulation by bulls In Sep tember options lifted oats prices with some early shower reports. There waa a good I demand for December by commission houses, with short leading. Stuff was hard to buy and the demand waa brisk. , There waa some late offering on the bulge , feut price held well. September spurted i from Slc to 83c and cloaed strong, l4c up, at B2c. Grading waa retarded- by the rains. Of 272 cara received today only 22 ' were of contract grade. ' Provision were Irregular and dull. Hogs were dull on liberal receipt. There was aome strength in distant options, but the nearby futures were liquidated again. Some support came, and especially In pork. September pork closed 6c up at lis, Septem ber lard 6c off at $10.26 and September rib down at 29.60.

Th solicitude felt over the possible stringency of money was exemplified by the effect upon th stock market of a flurry In the call money rate to 6 per cent. The fact that Stock exchange loans made on Friday carry over until the following Monday makes the customary de mand for money somewhat more urgent than on other day. The special cause . to explain today' harp advance was the maturity of sub scription for th new Oregon Short Line collateral bond, secured by deposit of Northern Securities stock. The payment called for about $15,000,000 and necessitated considerable shifting of losns to require ment. The rate dropped back to near 4 per cent near the close,- after the demand had been satisfied. There have been a number of other syn dicate operations during the week which may upset calculations aa to the bank statement tomorrow. Among these were the payment of subscriptions to the United States Shipbuilding company, the payment of dividends by the United States Steel Underwriting syndicate and-the dividend on United States Steel preferred, payable today. So far as the Indicated cash change promise tomorrow' bank state ment will not be unfavorable. The movement of currency with the In ''"r m tn Ke In favor of New York till, the receipt on balance during the week amounting to $1,600,000, against the loss to the subtreasury of $633,ono. New York exchange at Chicago fell to par today, compared with 10c premium yesterday and 20c premium on Wednesday. This Is an index of the growth of the pressure from the Interior upon New Tork for fund. Rate for time money also are advanced today to a uniform 6 per cent for all periods. In response to the higher money market there were additional large offerings in the exchange market of loan bills, aa well as of grain bills, for September, Octo ber and November delivery. The exchange market was In consequence weak. An Incidental influential opinion on the weakness of stocks waa the report of rain "Pr,nK wheat harvesting region, which affected the grain markets a well. A 'was to be expected the selling pre " wa most acute upon those stock which have advanced most conspicuously of late. Missouri Pacific fell a full 2 points below last night and the other Gould stock and the- Grangers and Pacific generally were affected in sympathy, eouthern Pa clflo resisted the decline, but yielded its opening gain, recovering again to about the best In the closing rally upon enormous dealings. St. Louis Southwestern preferred also moved up 2 points over last night just at the close. Pennsylvania, Louisville and Rock Island had periods of strength. The newest favorite in the rumors of deals were the Toledo, St. Louis & West ern stocks, which were bought In a demon strative way by the western speculative party, closing at the top.

Other buyer Totals L273 6.921 7,895 CATTLE There wa a very light run of came tiers luuay, ana in reality there was not enough ofTered to make a good teat of the market. For the week receipt have been liberal, a good gain having been made both over last week and alio over th same week of last year. There were Just a few corn fed steer on sale this morning, and the market could be quoted steady. One shipment was good enough to sell at 87.80, but they were out of the same feed lot as the $7.86 cattl of yesterday and the 38.16 cattl of Tuesday. The shipment today, though, wa not a heavy or aa good. Taking quality Into consideration the market today wa fully steady. The cow market did not show enough change from yesterday to be worthy of mention. There were only a few offered and anything fcood sbld fully steady. Aa compared with a week ago th best kinds are about a quarter higher, while th com moner grade are about steady. Bulls, veal calve and stag wer lust about steady with yesterday. The few western beef steer that Were offered brought Just about steady prices. As compared with the close of last week the good kinds are fully steady. The medium and common kinds, though, have been selling rather unevenly and with the exception of the Texas cattle are. If any. thing, a little lower. Texaa cattle, how ever, have been selling to better advantage for the last few days. Range cows sold at good, steady prices today, and It waa an eaay matter to dispose of the better grades. The common kinds, though, were more or less neglected. There wa very little change tn the atocker and feeder trade today. There was such a good de mand from the country yesterday that speculators seemed to want a few mora cattle and did not bear th market a they usually do at thia time of th week.
