Later sell Ing became general on an ofllclal prediction oi bright weather tomorrow over the har vest belt. As a result the market became eitrernely weak. At the same time poor demand for cash wheat In outside markets hnd considerable effect on prices here. For July the lowest point of the day was reached at nc. The mnrket closed weak. with July at Wc. September was off He at 84c. Clearances of wheat and flour were eo.ua! to Piu.700 bushels. Primary receipts were 1S9.0W bushels, comuared with .t-0 bushels a year ngo. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported receipts of 143 cars. against 159 cars last week and 276 cars a year auo. Sentiment In the corn Pit was bearish partly In sympathy with the break in wheat. but mainly as a result of a con st.intly Increasing movement. The volume of trading wm not large. The market closed easv. July opened unchanged to Va0 lower at 63HW5314C. sold between twir .ic and 53c and" closed at 53Sc. September closed a shade lower at 6Zl4c.

At the close September pork 1 and pears and either withdraw or ad vance prices on some lines of peaches. As It Is now, purchases are only courlrmed on the condition that the assortment shall be perfectly satisfactory to the calmer. Some advances have been made by various pack ers already, and this serves to show the strong situation of the market. The east Is buying seconds and water goods in Cali fornia unite heavily because of the esll mated light pack In the east. Spot Cali fornia canned goods are moving freely and the demand covers the entire line. Gallon apples aie in a strong position and buyers are finding It difficult to supply their wants. f There la no change to report In corn or iiuiiuiiws. eiuifr eitui ur luiuice. i nw uo nana is good in both line and the market In corn is particularly healthy because of tm: fact that the spot govds are consider ably lower than the new pack can be bought for. While the trade In spot dried peaches and apricots Is not heavy, the demand is all that can be expected at this time of the year. A heavier trade Is anticipated as soon as the berries are out of the way In the way of futures, the market is grad ually hardening on dried peaches, most all of the packers having advanced their origi nal prices Uttrttc on new peaches. New I tirunes are being heia at oricea liiiaiw kiiova the prices ruling some time ago on uie old stock. The latter are now neia at en advance of wnc over low prices. The l.Viicot market also shows a little advance oh futures, but the traders do not antici pate a material advance, as the. supply Is thought to be amnio for all requirements. Evaporated raspberries are practically out Of the market. Fancy Goods Active. Steadiness has characterised the fish mar ket for the week. Mackerel and family white llsh are still enjoying an excellent demand for the time of year. Although an advance has been looked for In the whltellsh, owing to the fact that the catch this year la much smaller than for some time, yet the price remains unchanged. The market la very strong, though, on the present heavy demand. Omaha stocks of Holland herrlnsr are getting very low There has been an Increased demand for fancy summer goods, with olives, sardines and canned meats leading. The proximity of the Fourth of July, when there are many picnics, Is responsible for the extra big trade In these lines. All fancy goods are s.Jllii far ahead of last year In volume. The holders of rice stocks have not ad vanced the price, contrary to the fears of the Jobbers. However, they are expecting a change at any time. A fairly good demand make a firm market In outs. Syrups are unchanged, with a verv slow demand. The sale of woodenware is good, with Drlcea steady and no change In sight. Deans continue strong at high figures on the short crop In Michigan. The old stock It getting low and this year's output seems In a fair way to be a small one. July Fourth Makes Trade. What Is called Fourth of July dry goods Is experiencing a big trade. The retailers And that It is necessary each year to lay in a stock of goods for special trade, sucn as laces, embroideries, ribbons, fans, para sols, etc., wnicn nave a pig rut just De- fore the Fourth.

CLOUDS ON EUROPEAN POLITICAL HORIZON Probability of Developments Over Sunday MnUes Traders t ant Ions French Rentes and British Consols Off. NEW YORK, June 24.-There waa a lull today In the activity in the operations for an advance In prices of stocks which have been carried on through the week, and the two hours' session of the Stdck exchange was rather quiet. A disposition was shown to reduce commitments In the market in view of the Sunday Interval and the possi bility of unexpected developments during the suspension of business. The clouds on the Kuropean political horlion accentuated this tendency. A further sharp break In French rentes and the further running off of the sterling rute at Paris were testi mony to the acuteness of the anxiety over the relations between France and Germany. British consols were affected In less degree. Hoth of thesu government securities rallied before the close of the markets In London and Purls, but there was free selling here lor foreign account and the possibility of unfavorable developments before Monday was canvassed. The wheat and cotton markets showed a yielding tendency and prospects of clearing and warmer weather In the wheat belt were regarded with satisfaction, but the commodities markets were also affected by speculative realising Incident to the closing of the week. The bank statement revealed a replenishment of surplus much larger than was anticipated, the Increase In cash averages reaching Jtf.512,200. At the sumo time a IlOoO.OUO loan contraction operated to relieve the reserve requirement In propor tion. The net result was to more than double the surplus, bringing It up to $16,- "-i,oii. xne growing ease or the money market during the week was thus ex plained. The favorable bank statement, however, was taken advantage of to pur sue the prevailing disposition to realize and prices went off after a partial recovery, closing easy and at about the lowest all around.

Money was In fair supply and In (rood demand In the market today. Discounts were steady. Brokers were cautious In view of the approach of the month-end and the present unrest. Business on the Stock exchange was dull and operators were nervous about the Moroccan situation. Consols were flat, which depressed kindred securities. Home rails were lower. Americans opened hesi tating at parity. The variations were mixed. Many stocks receded on New lork selling ana prices closed easy. f oreigners were conservative pending continental advices. Japanese were dull, owing to a report that the authorities at Toklo hnd refused to agree to an armistice. Imperial Japanese government 6s of 19'M were quoted at 103. PARIS. June 24. Operators on the bourse today, while showing uneasiness over the Moroccan situation, were calmer than on previous days. There were considerable of fers of rentes, which were quickly ab sorbed, thus preventing a marked decline. Russians were active on tho rumor that an armistice was being arranged, Rente closed heavy. Russian Imperial 4s were quoted at 89.20 and Russian bonds of 1904 at 602. BERLIN. June 24. There was a better tone than expected on the bourse today In view of the pronounced weakness on tho Paris bourse yesterday. Business here was light, but prices were pretty wen main tained. 41.200 126 126 1w ir i"n i", sou; 1f Date. 19:. 11904. 11903. 19uJ.

Totals CAT TL.E There were no fresn arrivals li4)ie today and, as usual on Saturday, no market. The steady decline of the lust ten days was checked somewhat at this point tne middle of this woek, wtieti, owing to the sharp break In prices the llrst two clays, receipts became lighter. The market on the first two days of the week In the face of liberal receipts dropped about 2ndu85c, with trading slow and dull. This decline had a tendency to check re ceipts and for the rest of the week tiie oflerings were moderate. With lighter re ceipts the market took a turn for the bet ter and showed some strength and activity 011 Wednesday and the remainder of the week. A part of the decline was regained, leaving the general market 15&20C lower for the week. Cattle sold unevenly this woek, some sales looking higher and some look ing lower than tho decline noted above. On the very best drylot steers some sales were only about lo'ul6c lower, while, on the other hand, grassy kinds looked u nuarter lower. The market on cows and heifers was in about the same condition as the steers and showed about the same decline. On the rood kinds there was a fairly goud de mand, especially toward the close of the week, when receipts were light. Bulls, veal calves and stags also show a decline of Wie'Mc. although there was a fair demand for anything good In this line. The supply of stockers and feeders was light this week, and, us usual at this time of year, there was a light demand. These kinds also show about the same loss as do the steers, and trading is a little slow HOGS There was a fairly good run here for a Saturday, about 120 loads being on sale. The quality of the hogs was very good, aa has been the case ull the week. Buyers were out early and there wus some little uraen?v to the demand. Encouraging reDorts from eastern points gave sellers some advantage and there wus a bullish tone to the trade.

Wheat was down today, under prospect! of clear weather, July being Hie below yesterday. Under the influence of ruin re ports from Kansas har est held there wus some trading early In the session at isc. This was alter a weak o(ening and the price quickly declined. July closed at M"c. fepteiuber at M'.c and December at Mit 4c. Corn was steady at yesterday's figures, heavy receipts staving 01T any advance.

From toduv s Chicago Tribune: "Reports of yields of winter wheat, actual nnd pros pective, have been conlllctlng and contra," dieted to such an extent that it seems evi dent some crop reports are using their Imaginations rather than their eyes, ot else the crop is unusually spotted. It U probable that yields are varied even In th same locality and that people looking for good yields or lmil yieios nave pcen num to llnd them. The condition Is one that will mnko any accurate estimate of the size of the crop unustMlly dllllcult." At Liverpool wheat was steany una u higher at the opening, owing to Jones' es timate and outside buying. There was a slight easiness at the end and tho close was unchanged for July and Hd higher for September. Corn opened d lower on the forecast of larger American shipments to Liverpool. Later, however, price! steadied, owing to the nervousness of July shorts and firmness of La Plata parcels. July close d lower nnd September Hd higher. , . Kansas City cash handlers have with drawn offers of wheat for shipments the first half of July. This action was caused by heavy rains In eastern and northern Kansas Thursday night, delaying harvest ing and doing some damago to the crop. Australian wheat shipments for the week were 240,000 bushels, the previous week 2M.0O0 bushels, and last year 2M.0O0 bushels. The Nashville, 111., mills bought wheat yes terdav nt St. Genevieve, Mo., weighing 1 pouncls, for 80c. This will cost them 84o laid down at the mills. Receipts of wheat at rrlmary points were 199.0H) bushels, against 304.000 last year. Shipments from Chicago were 293,000 bushels, against 124,000 bushels last year. Omaha Cash Sales.
