' There wan enough excitement In the
opening; of the wheat market in Chicago
tina morning to make even the bulla ner
vous at Hi-? display of strength and tho
demand for the Bruin for all futures nnd
for Immediate delivery. The first mien
of new September were on the road to $1.03,
while the oll September delivery did not
atop Ion before It turned ll.M4. while
Iecember reached $l.irj' ana Muy $1.04.
These advance showed an nveraa-e net
gain of kc a bushel, and corn followed, but
to a much modified extent. It was a repe
tition of all the and and long drawn out
tales of woe, repeated, confirmed,
Iterated and emphasized. Iat night' rain
whb not local, but was quite general over
Nebraska, Minnesota, the Dakota. Kan
ens and Missouri. It la admitted that It
did not do wheat any Rood, that It would
not even help corn, and that unharvested
oata would get the worst of It. The gov
ernment spring wheHt crop condition
August 1 la expected, but the trade doea
not believe that it win enow mo damage
from ruat which has developed largely dur
ing the Interim between the first of the
month and now.
The receipts of car lota of grain at all
points were heavy, but the estimates for
tomorrow were about half of the totals
nt today, thla being especially the case In
Chicago. This would acorn to Indicate that
elevator men and furmers generally are
beginning to realize crop prospects else
where and the shortage in wheut for ex
portation, and they are beginning to hold
back, Prices are high and commeod them
selves to conservative traders who sre not
in the hnblt of waiting for the very top.
The situation In Omaha Is promising for
the future of thla market. The receipts
are Increasing and elevator men should
realise the fact that they cannot sond too
much grain to market. Omaha can take
ail sent here nnd the price Is relatively
liiKher than elsewhere.
1 he-commlsslon houses have large outside
milling orders and Omuha mills are after
wheat. When No. t hard wheat spIIs here
at H'a92 us It did today, t should com
mend itself as a flrHt-clnss receiving market
and one that the elevator men of Nebraaka
should foster Every effort Is made to get
high prices and the buyers know that con
ditions warrant good values. The range
varies on tho test weight. A movement Is
Inaugurated in this column today to give
test weights on wheat, for with this knowl
edge the seller enn come very close to fig
uring on probable prices In the market.
The speculative markets became softer
after the big rise of the early part of the
session and protit-taking by speculators In
the habit of taklug profits and waiting for
reactions to got In again. With this, period
of liquidation prices reacted very close to
the final figures of yesterday, where they
held with considerable stubbornness. Tha
volume of business waa heavy and the proa,
pect for continued lively Interest in tha
market Is excellent. Final crop figures will
tell Just which way values will Jump and It
will take more than a n50,ooo,0u0 bu. crop
of wheat to cause price concessions.
During tha first half hour of the afternoon
the market displayed even more signs of
weakness and not only was the entire ad
vance lost, but there were additional etc
rllnes reaching to 4 of a point on Septem
ber wheat and December as well. Then In
the closing: ten minutes of the iesion the
shorts commenced to get in 'out of possible
trouble and their buying with tha assist
ance of a little pressure from bull Interest
caused an advance so that the losses of the
day were regained and the final figures
closings were about c on an average
higher than Monday's. i
Corn and oats were active and I at one
time the former was lo higher for Sep
tember, but the advance was not fully held
and tha closings on both the grains were
comparatively . steady and not much
changed. .

Minneapolis mill reports quote highest
irlra for Hour since Joe Letter s wheat
leal.
Minneapolis says: "Rained all night here
and St Duluth and as far north as Fergus
Kslls and west to Huron. lie ports are
worse than ever."

and the Dakota, also In Iowa, Nebraska,
and Mlsoouri and light rains to Canadian

The government crop report tomorrow
will take in conditions to August 1; It will
not take into account the oamage from
rust, as at that date It had hardiy made
Its sppearanee. Since then rust has spread
rapluiy through the three northern states
so that the tair promise of August 1 hss
been changed almost. If not quite, to a
calamity.
The Dallas, Tex., correspondent of the
Grain Dealers' Journal writes: "During
the lost three weeks wheat has been
climbing and even at the advanced price
mll.ers are unable to gt enough wneat.
No doubt a great quantity of wheat will
be shipped into this state to meet the de
mand of the mills. The crop is very much
shorter than was anticipated. Prices are
very stilt and flour advances may be looked
for."
The Western Elevator company of Wi
nona, Minn., sends the following message
from Huron, B. D., sent by their traveling
auditor: -The black rust has damageJ
the wheat crop in my territory at least 0
per cent and in some localities It Is dam
aged .6 per cent, while the grade has been
cut down to No. 3 1 rejected and no graoe.
This black rust or disease has spread very
rspldly and localities where there was no
rust the first of the week have been
stricken the last few days and the crop
nearly ruined. There are thousands of
acres being cut that will not pay expenses
of ahrvesung and threshing. The barley
and oats crops are very good, not being
damaged by the rust. One farmer, living
near Huron, threshed his wheat out today.
It made seven bushels to the acre and
tested forty-seven pounds to the bushel.
This state has the poorest quality of wheat
this year that It ever had and the yield
will be the poorest for a good many years."

CHICAGO . GRAI AND PROVISIONS
Features of the Trading; and Closing
Prices on Board of Trade.
' CHICAGO, Aug. 3. Notwithstanding a
deluge of sales and a temporary break
of over 2V4c In the price of wheat, frensled
buying resulted In a net gain of prac
tically a cent a bUBhel today. Corn Is
off WiH4- Oats are up tog'Vio. Provlt-iong
vary from Wb7Hc lower to ihifitc higher.
The Impetus gained from yesterday's sen
sational advance with further crop dam
age, reports of even more serious import
formed the uplifting factor in the wheat
market, September ranged at the start
from ycHterJay's closing figure, $1.01, to
a cent higher and immediately began to
soar.
Dnder the growing pressure September
went to 31.03 and there was apparently
little to be had until that point wns
reached.' The new flood of wheat came
out on realising sales and the price broke
to fl.OOVifr LOW. Offerings, however, were
so freshly absorbed by (the crowd that be
fore the new sentiment became a per
manent element there was a return of the
clamorous buying disposition and prices
readily responded, September closing firm
at 31.01. Clearances of wheat and flour
were equal to 47,4KB bushels. Bradstreet's
available supply showed an increase of
1,307,000 bushels against 8,848,000 bushels
decreuso for the same period last year.
Primary receipts, 873.0(10 bushels. Minne
apolis, Duluth and Chicago reported re
ceipts of 37t) cars against 428 last week
and 54 a year ago.
: Corn received considerable benefit front
the speculative Interest In wheat, Bep
lemher starting at 64 to. 640 and ad
vancing to 65o. When the break occurred
in the price of wheat a corresponding re
action followed in the corn pit. The de
cline carried September corn down to R3o
and but little of the Initial advance waa
recovered. September closed steady at
UVi'EiWc. Local receipts were 358 cars.
An easy tone prevailed In oats after an
opening steadied by the other grains.
Heavy receipts of oats and excellence of
grading, together with Indifferent cash de
mand operated to hold prices In check.
September closed at 31c, after ranging
between 3333c. Local receipts Were 640
cars.
. Provisions were steady with trade dull
and without any significant feature. Com
mission houses bought freely at the start,
but the prevailing disposition waa to sell.
September pork waa off 6c to 7Hc St the
close. Lard was unchanged at 3U7W Ribs
closed 2Wnl3 higher at 37.65. Estimated
receipts for tomorrow: Wheat, 82 cars;

NEWYORR STOCKS AND BONDS
Ball Late in Afternoon Brings Market Oat
of Its Depretiion.
SOUTHERN PACIFIC LEADS THE RALLY
Retarn to Xormal Conditions of
, Whent Market Is Also aaT Oees
slon of Relief for
gpernlators.
NEW YORK, Aug. 3-The factor which
depressed stocks yesterday were still In
force today and were effective during the
early part of the exchange session, but
they did not prevent an effective rallv In
the latter part of the day. An element In
the rally was the buying to cover by pro
fessional operators, who were disappointed
that the adverse factors in the outlook had
not Induced others than themselve to sell
stocks. Also the buvlng to support the
market was attributed to Influential and
powerful sources, which had the effect of
discouraging professional attsck upon
prices. The buying In Southern Paclflo was
deemed especially Imposing and this stock
led the rally, aa It did yesterday. The ap
proach of the hour of adjournment of the
wheat market was a period of most effec
tive recovery In stocks. Indicating the feel
ing of relief at the removal of that imme
diate factor of disturbance. There seemed
to bs favorable conclusions drawn also from
the relatively less violent movement In the
price of wheat than yesterday. Corn did
not escape the prevailing deduction from
the weather conditions and was manifestly
buoyed up as well by sympathy with the
wheat market.
The announced cut In price of steel bil
lets and the probsble consequence to the
continuance of the pool continued under
active discussion and Induced the early de
cline In L'nlted States Steel preferred. The
episode under suspicion of a speculative
motive and the personalities associated
with It made the professional element wary
of It, mindful of some severe experiences
of the past. United States 3teel preferred
In fact turned strong in the late dealings
snd waa one of the late leaders of the con
troversy. Metropolitan Street Railway was
the most active stock on the list and Its
successive flights to higher price levels
were regarded as corroborative of the per
sistent rumors of an amalgamation with
the Interborough Rapid TranBlt. The rise
In the stock, which extended to 4 points,
waa a sustaining Influence on the whole
list.
Renewed disquiet abroad ovef Interna
tional politics helped to unsettle the money
market and a further advance In sterling
exchange made a gold movement to Lon
don practically certain. It Is understood
that some 33.000.000 additional gold coin will
also go to Cuba during the week. Senti
ment was undisturbed by these prospects
and the market closed very steady and
practically at the top level. Bonds were
Irregular. Total sales, par Value, 32.246,000.
United State . bonds were unchanged on
call.

Ca t. i. nE There were not as many caiuo
here toatiy us aniveu yesteruay, but mere
seemed to be an ample supply 10 meet me
renuirumenis oi tue meat uauie. Tne mar
ket was rather eiow irom start to nmsh
and tnere was certainly no Improvement, in
prices.
'there were quite a few corn-fed steers In
duced in tne receipts and tne market couid
be uuoted steady on tne kinds mat Just
suited buyers. 11 Is ratner iiurd to teil just
what kind suit buyers, aa tney want one
kind one day and another kind' tne next
day. 'I ney never seem to be anxious tor
stiort-teos and warmed-up cattle, nowever,
and that ciass are always siow sale and
command irregular prices. As a gerjerai
thiru salesmen wno had came that were
not lat or lacking in quality were catling
Ide market a lime lower today than it was
yesteruay, it was rather late before a
clearance waa made of . the undesirable
kinds, though the choicer grodes soid in
lainy good season.
The cow market was about In the same
conuitlou It has been for some time past.
Buyers wenta around and picked out the
bunches they wanted and paid aoout steady
prices. After that the market i was very
siow and salesmen had to take what they
could est for the cattle that were left.
Receipts were made up almost entirely of
western graaa cattle, not enough corn-feds
being on aale to make a market. As ststeu
aiany times previous to this through these
columns there is no demand from packers
for the canning grades and common cut
ters and that ciass should be kopt at
home until the situation Improves.
There was no particular change in the
market for bulls, veal calves and stags.
There were between live and ten loads
of stockers and feeders on sale and prices
held about steady. The same as usual,
common stuff waa rather hard to move.
' There were, comparatively few western
grass beef steers on sale and those that
aid arrive were no mors than steady. The
better grades sold In about yesterday's
notches, but others were weak. Repre

SHEKP There were a few more sheep on
sale today than arrived yesterday, but as
packers seem to be able to handle irom
ten to fifteen cars a day, the tnlrtten care
reported wero well cored tor, Tn market
could best be described by calling It active
and steady on all desirable gmaes, every
thing in the fat line being sold at an eariy
hour. There were three mote car of the
Idaho ewes, wether and yearling on sale
that brought $3.io, or t. urn? as yester
day. The quality of th,' attainder of the
receipts was nothing , "a. so that the
sales do not look particularly high on
paper.
The feeder market also held steady, with
a brisk demand for desirable ofisrlng.
A string of yearling sold as' high a 13 jo.
A previously ment.oned, the uemand for
feeders Is in excess of the supply, but ot
course most of the buyer want good stuff.
Commission men say that those who have
desirable feeders on hand need not be
afraid to ship them.
