om o7ts suffered worst. Hepl-mber
gaining almost 6c at one time. September
SptlonS In every pit felt theeffect of
ecarclty of contract grade. heat got a
whirl, ehorts In oat w no hope of con.
tract stocks and the bin packers put their
shoulders under provisions. As usual the
strong. September corn closed 4c higher,
September wneai 7t "V
oats Kamo higher. September provisions
closed to "uc higher.
There was an afterclap of the July corn
deal that startled the whole trade In corn
t the opening. Of lste It had been a case
of blind lead the blind selling September
corn In order to get prices down to a leeel
with the lower months. Lower price did
come after the huge receipts of last month
and September tumbled trom over 60c. to
bK. Then came the story of poor receipts,
with but little grading contract. Immense
ehort Interests and backwardness of the
maturing crops. Yesterday English mar
kets began advancing. Today cablea were
very atrong. receipts were only 4o cars and
Influential buyl.ig started a wild opening.
Shorts wanted stuff to cover contracts
with and wanted It badly, but nobody
could buy much.
The big bulla took on good lines where
they could and offered almost nothing. For
eign houses did good early buying and with
alight hesitation after the early Jump

- ,rr.r.w nnalilon and is badly tied
i. that nnilnn In evervthlns. Other
months made good advances In sympathy,
but not so excitedly as September, which
oponed with a Jump of V(ilVc at 634r64c,
and to t,1c and closed very strong and
congested 4o up at 67c. December Bold
between ilc and 43c.
Wheat started easy, but Boon felt the ef
fects of the corn excitement. Cables were
Indifferent and fairer weather was reported
northwest, where It was most needed. In
this pit It was a story of the effects of bad
weather, diminishing stocks, lighter re
ceipts and almost no arrivals to make up
the depletion of contract stuff. The big
TTU1I Interests did comparatively little to
etart a swift buying movement. Elevators
and commission houses began buying
heavily and of course the shorts followed.
There was no selling pressure. September
was the more active and Influenced ad
vances In other options, which otherwise
had a bearish sentiment behind them. The
cash demand was good and export clear
ances In wheat and flour were heavy at
816,000 bushels, a total In four days of 8,055,
CniO bushels. September started Hiffc to H
tl'Vic down and declined to TO4e. Then the
corn strength was felt and, prices went to
72c. At one time this month was 4c over
December. Late profit-taking brought a
dip, but September closed firm. Ho up at
7l(i71He. Iocal receipt were 306 carB,
only 8 of contract grade. Minneapolis and
Dufuth reported 194 cars, making a total
for the three points of 500 cars, against 428
lant week and 649 a year ago. Primary re
ceipts were 849.000 bushels, compared to
63.000 bushels last year.
Oats Bhared In the strength and activity
which characterized all the other grains.
September, led In the advance and gained
mc. The sensational upturn In September
corn stimulated the bullish feeling that has
been iioier.t In this pit for "! days
and brought the shorts to a realisation of
their tight position. Bhorts did most of the
buying. They had in mind mainly the poor
grading and poor stocks. Crop advices
were bad and receipts, though larger than
yesterday, were stt II far from sufficient to
aid the shorts In their dilemma. At times
. trade lapsed Idle, but the strength held
i throughout the session. September sold
' from 83e to 84V4o and closed strong, llHo
up at 84?r34V4c. Receipts were 210 cars,
' only 16 of contract grade.
, Provisions naturally followed the higher
prices of hogs and the advance In corn.
, The demand for consumption also was good
I and It needed only the aupport of the pack
ers to bring a sharp upturn all along the
Mine. Shorts covered freely.' Business had
! largely a manipulative aspect. September
pork made a Jump of 85c a barrel, selling at
117, and closed 70c up at 116.86; September

NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS.
Marked Selling; Tendeaoy Banishes
All Resistance to Weakness.
NEW YORK, Aug-. 21. Active speculative
liquidation became manifest In today's
stock market and at the close the selling
movement was urgent and somewhat pre
cipitated. During the earlier part of the
day anme stand was mads strninst the
tendency to depression and a few stocks
were pushed up at different times as a sus
taining Influence upon the market, but the
selling to realise elsewhere in the market
was steadily going on all the time. At
the last the liquidation seemed to have pro
ceeded to such an extent that the efforts
to support the market were withdrawn and
all semblance of resistance to the weakness
disappeared.
The stocks which were notably strong
yesterday and for some time previously
started out at declines and showed that
the largest effect of the selling pressure was
at the last. Some small gains were retained
even at the last In a few of the stocks
which had risen earlier, but in others the
gains were more than wiped out.
The upward movement In the Denver A
Rio Grande stocks which developed during
the day after a period of quiet was the
most conspicuous, but Denver & Rio Grande
closed with a substantial net loss. Louis
ville ft Nashville was notably weak and
fell back at one time three points. The
advance In Western Union was said to be
due to pressure upon the shorts, the de
mand for the stock in the loan crowd be
ing such as to command a premium.
With the exception of Texas & Paclflc
and Ontario & Western the other demon
strations of strength were In minor railroad
and In Industrial stocks. The weakness In
Colorado Fuel which carried It down In the
late market 8 points was also an unsettling
Influence on the whole market. The ef
forts of the "speculative operator to gain
control has resulted In heavy speculation.
The closing tone waa distinctly weak.
There was no actual new developement
to account for the sudden disposition to sell
stocks but there was a very material
change in sentiment, which caused an al
tered view of the same conditions as ex
isted yesterday. The sentimental character
of yesterday's rise and that which had
preceded It for several days left a great
probability of reaction.
Extravagant as were the expectations as
to the promptitude and extent of the meas
ureB which Mr. Morgan would take to Im
prove the situation, there was some dis
appointment this morning over the delay.
The hope seemed to be that Mr. Morgan's
hurried visit to his offlce immediately on
landing from the steamer would result In
the settlement off-hand of all the various
problems which have accumulated during
his absence of several months.
Yesterday's professed confidence in the
secure abundance of funds for speculative
purposes was changed today. The engage
ment last night of $100,000 by telegrapVc
transfer through the subtreasury to Cincin
nati came too late for effect upon the stock
market. That shipment was 'supplemented
today by another one of $100,000 to New
Orleans and the fear waa awakened that
the Interior movement of currency has
fairly set In. The sterling exchange market
waa also notably Arm, reflecting the very
heavy short Interest existing In that mar
ket. The disposition to realise was much
emphasised by this development.
Bonds were quite active and became easy
in sympathy with stocks. Stock sales at
par value were $2,628,000. United States new
4s and old 4s advanced per cent on the
lant call.

CATTLE There was another "big run of
cattle here today, and in fact receipts were
much heavier than was generally antici
pated. As will be seen from the table of
receipts above, the supply for the week to
date shows a. big increase both over the
same days of last week and also over the
same days of last year. But while there
were a good many cattle In the yards there
were comparatively few that were good
enough for packers.
Cornfed steers were scarce snd the mar
ket could safely be quoted steady and ac
tive on desirable grades. Nothing sold
higher than 37 26, bo that there were no
good cattle in the yards.
The cow market was Just about steady
on desirable stuff, but the medium and
common stuff was a little Blow and lower.
It seemed to be an uneven market, how
ever, for while some sales were undoubt
edly lower there were others that were
steady. That waa especially true of the
cutters and the grades Just a little better.
Bulls, vea calves and stags commanded
Just about steady prices. Handy weight
feeder bulls In particular sold to good ad
Vantage, aa the demand for them waa quite
active.
The great bulk of the receipts consisted
of feeders and a large proportion of them
were of rather Inferior quality. The good
stuff, and by that is meant heavy dehorned
cattle of good flesh and quality, was in
active demand at steady prices. Prime
yearlings were also good sellers, but when
It came to the inferior grades, and espe
cially to the common horned cattle there
was nothing doing. Sellers found It almost
Impossible to get a bid on that class of
stuff. The trouble is that there is little
demand from the country for that cuss
Of cattle, and as a result they have been
accumulating all the week, until specula
tors do not want any more. ,
The westera range steers that were good
enough for packers commanded steady
prices, but there were not many killers In
the yards. As stated above, good feeders
sold readily at steady prices, but the com
mon stuff waa very dull and lower. Range
cows of good quality, as a general thing
held steady, with other kinds unevenly
lower. Representative sales:
BEEF STEERS.

HOGS There was
hogs here today and the supp'" at other
points was also rather llmltei.T Packers
ail seemed to have liberal orders and as a
result the market onened fnlrlv soiiva nri
6&10c higher than yesterday. The hulk of
all the sales went frnm 16 Jin tn ea on miA
as high as $7.00 was paid. As the morning
auvaucca me market gained in strength,
owing to the competition between buyers,
and at the close the ruling prices were
about a dime higher than yesterday.
Everything waa sold In good season.
Today a advance carries the market back
to about where it was the first part of last
week. Representative sales:

SHEEP There waa a very fair run of

at an early hour, except possibly the In
ferior grades, theep sold as high as 33.66
and yturllncs touched $3.85.
There were a few I a in lis on sale, but
